Makyle & Tilly's Light up Air MAx

We chose this  project because we wanted to see if we could make light up shoes. We wanted to see if it was possible to make light up shoes so we took a nike air-max sneaker and stuck lights through the inside of the shoe and through the bottom of the shoe. We had some trouble early on, but in the end, everything with the shoe turned out okay.

Shoes and sneakers are very important to us, so we wanted to choose something that connected to us personally. We decided to choose an older shoe, like the Air Max, because we weren’t comfortable with using a shoe that we currently wear. We’re glad we chose the Air Max sneaker, because we indeed took apart the shoe.

This physics project has increased our knowledge of physics, along with our creativity. At first, I, (Makyle), was in no desire to complete this project, but after completing it, I’m glad that we got the opportunity to show how much physics we know, along with showing how creative that we truly can be.
