Light up your stride! Mod a pair of high-tops with NeoPixel strip and FLORA, Adafruit's wearable electronics platform. These sneakers use a velostat step sensor in the heel to trigger firey animations as you walk!

This project involves sewing and soldering! We recommend you read the Getting Started with FLORA guide before beginning this project.

This project is a collaboration with Phillip Burgess aka Paint Your Dragon! Glamour shots by John de Cristofaro. Project help by Risa Rose, and special thanks to Ary from Anamanaguchi for modeling!
