Nike Back to the Future been on top of shopping lists ever since they popped out in the movie, only they didn’t really exist so people couldn’t quite buy them. Now Nike has caught hold of the sales potential in these sci-fi shoes, and has brought them to reality. The sad part: they don’t have auto-lace so you will have to tie shoe laces yourself.
Another thing: These are more of collector’s items with only 1500 pairs being made and each headed the way of auction on eBay. Net proceeds from the auction will go to the Michael J. Fox Foundation to fight Parkinson’s, and all donations to the foundation through the end of the year will be matched (up to $50 million) by Sergey Brin and Anne Wojcicki.
These shoes will be up for auction up till September 18, so if you can get hold of the money, feel free to take a shot. Be advised though, it looks as if all of them have been bid past $2000 already.
