The Internet this morning has been buzzing like crazy about Nike’s possible release of the Air Mag. These shoes are better known from the movie “Back to the Future II,” in the film they were self tying, and in 2009 Nike obtained a patent for a self-tying design. Below is the video that surfaced and sparked the buzz today.
In addition to the video, Nike invited Matt Halfhill of Nice Kicks, for “a big announcement,” Halfhill posted some pictures on Nice Kicks’ web site, everything Back to the Future themed. It is expected that more details/info or a confirmation of this is to be revealed tonight. Can we have our hover boards now?
