A shoe Coated in Hydrophobic Material! I tried posting an awesome gif a few days ago of something else to do with hydrophobic material, but for some reason it didn’t work, so this will have to do. Sorry :( But anyway - The molecules that coat this shoe are Hydrophobic, that means that they basically ‘repel’ water molecules, while we are only just mastering this, nature developed it billions of years ago - Our cell walls are also made of molecules with similar properties!
