If you've been watching the 2012 London Olympics, by now you have probably noticed the bright neon yellow shoes that a lot of the Olympian athletes have been wearing - and also some bright neon green and bright neon red - either on the podium when accepting medals or doing interviews, like Michael Phelps and Missy Franklin, or on the track - there is a lot of yellow tennis shoes on the track! As you might have guessed, bright neon shoes are the fun growing fashion trend since Spring 2012, now by Olympians, and actually also celebrities like Disney's "Wizards on Waverly Place" Selena Gomez and Carly Rae Jepsen have worn them on the red carpet.

For Team USA, athletes receiving a special medal are given
Nike apparel to wear on the stand. Many have chosen the bright, green shoes to complete their winning look. Nike explained the outfits on their
website claiming, “The world is watching and we want to make sure the athlete looks and feels good in celebration of their achievement.”
