Designer gumboots that will have you singing in the rain

With much of Australia battling heavy rains this week, this invention might be the way to lure people out of their homes.

 

These rain boots, created by Bloom.fm and Firebox, have built-in waterproof speakers, the perfect combination for the young at heart, or just the very young.

 

United by the consistent design feature of water-repelling plastic materials, it’s also the kind of product you buy in multiples, because how much fun could dancing in the rain on your own really be?

 

Anything that combines functional with fun is likely to find a strong market among children, whose exhausted parents will be able to delight their kids into putting on their own shoes.
