Marty McFly's self-lacing Nikes are a reality... - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

So I'm kind of a sneaker head (mostly retro Jordans) and
saw this article about the self-lacing Nikes from Back to the Future II actually being made and released!!!

I can't believe they are a reality and even through it for a good cause, I just checked eBay under Nike-Mag and seeing 75K, 10K, 9K etc! That is insane!!

Do want

Dave-ROR · 09-09-2011, 12:05 PM

LOL that is awesome!

VenomRush · 09-09-2011, 12:54 PM

those things are ugly.. and the only way you'll match anything you're wearing is if you're wearing daft punk helmets

RRnold · 09-09-2011, 03:19 PM

TBO, if I can manage to snipe a bid, these shoes wouldn't even touch the ground so I wouldn't care what it doesn't match.

Only 1500 pairs being released!! "Doc, this is heavy..."

Flashback to 1989 when I was in 5th grade watching B2FII in the theater thinking in 2015 we'll have self lacing Nikes, hover boards and flying cars. Ironically they've accomplished 1 out of the 3!

Giccin · 09-09-2011, 10:02 PM

I'd.. skip on the shoes. lol Collectors. They're insane~

RRnold · 09-09-2011, 10:36 PM

It's kind of weird but my Hyperdunks kind of look similar to the McFly's! They used to be the lightest shoes made but have horrible ankle support.

No love for the McFly's though.

These actually don't have the self lacing auto system, however I remember last year that some kid had achieved this and I'm not sure now if he was successful on shopping his idea to other companies.
