10 light-up sneakers that are keeping our childhood dreams alive

When we think of our childhoods, it’s a smorgasbord of ’90s knick-knacks and nostalgia and what could possibly be more ’90s than light-up sneakers? Nothing felt better than strutting down the street while emitting all types of blinking lights. And just because you’re an adult doesn’t mean you can’t experience it again! Light-up sneakers are back, you guys, and our inner child is rejoicing. Here are 10 of our favorites:
