ABSTRACT:
Athletes' shoes, or other selectable footwear conventionally having a flexible forward tongue, is modified into a tongue forward-fold provided with a horizontal aperture and in forward alignment with the incandescent lamp portion of a luminaire system so that such lamp might beam directionally forwardly from the tongue of the worn footwear. The directionally forward light beam is not only aesthetically attractive, but also can illuminate the directionally forward pathway being taken by the wearer. In preferred embodiments, the luminaire system is a unifiabie incandescent lamp and storage battery power source therefor, and with such unit being securely and replaceably positioned immediately behind the tongue forward-fold.
