Used these glowing glasses for a children's event where different colors were presented. It took 3 hours to connect. From the outside, they looked like regular white sneakers. Unlike the glowing soles, the entire shoe comes in 12 different options and flashes brightly. It can be seen many feet from the stage and in dark places. They are the keepers! The price was comparable to others and worth the effect. Easy to turn on, can work in dance programs, you need to count the number of compressions. Don't get them wet and buy more for friends to share so you can shine together!
