According to Kim, North West was the one who inspired the idea to make a glow-in-the-dark take on the popular adidas model. In a Twitter post, Kim revealed that she was trying to bribe her daughter to put her shoes on by saying that they were glow-in-the-dark, but quick-witted North asked her mom to turn off the lights figuring out she was lying. Kanye who was on speaker phone the whole time heard the exchange between his daughter and wife and decided to actually put together a glowing version of his collaborative sneaker.
