INTRODUCTION
 Floating shoes is a kind of foot wear that
can be used to enable human to float on
water. To make this shoe, by using the
same concepts and theories applied to
make boat floating on water. But, the
difference is to make this device smaller
for personal used, so it will give more
advantages for human to travel
anywhere.
The Shoe’s Material
 FRP (Fiberglasss Reinforced Plastic)
 Non-corrosive, strong, lightweight,
maintenance-free, and can be erected
efficiently and economically.
 Fiberglass products have excellent
weatherability, heat resistance, chemical
resistance and fire retardancy
properties.
