Nike Air Mags Released and Auctioned on eBay. Power Laces in 2015?

Remember the movie Back to the Future 2? The way Robert Zemeckis portrayed the future was amazing at the time, but so far from reality. I know everyone remembers the hoverboards and flying cars, but do you remember Marty McFly's get up when he arrived in the future? Long-story short, Nike is finally releasing the Almighty Air MAG's!


1500 pairs will be auctioned off on eBay and all proceeds will go to the Michael J. Fox Foundation. The charity auction will run from September 8th, 2011(Tonight!) to September 18th, 2011. Furthermore, Sergey Brin the Co-Founder of Google will match proceeds with a near 50 million dollar donation. This time last year there were rumors of Nike buying rights patented self-lacing shoe. These sneakers will come equipped with official power laces'(Hasn't been confirmed yet, but power laces might not be included) and glowing lights! The shoe is illuminated by pinching the “ear’ of the high top. The feature itself makes it the first rechargeable footwear from Nike. Each shoe holds a five hour charge. It wasn't until yesterday that select sneaker blogs received a package. Inside was a black box which included a pair of metal shield glasses and a iPod shuffle containing an audio clip from Doc(Emmit Brown) “Welcome to Los Angeles. If my calculations are correct, over the next 24 hours you are about to see some SERIOUS SH*T!”. I guess Zemeckis' ideas were not that far fetched after all. Check out the YouTube clips below to get a better understanding of how epic these will be. Nike will also have a private conference in Hollywood on September 9th, most likely to break the news. Get ready BiF, I'm coming for you. #nextinshow
