Right on Time: Nike Will Release Marty McFly’s Power Lace Shoes in 2015

According to Back to the Future 2, 2015 is just the right time for Marty McFly’s self lacing shoes. Nike did launch lookalike Nike MAGs in 2011, but they did not include the power lace. Now they say the technology is finally available, and could very well be put into production in 2015. Hopefully, we’ll have the hoverboards as well.

Nike shoes modded to work as Wii controllers

Considering that a number of fitness games are made for the Nintendo Wii, Nick Marsh was inspired to create the Nike Wiis. These basically are shoes modded into controllers for the Wii. We guess playing with these shoes on isn’t easy, but the last Wii accessory we saw was insanely weird, so Nike Wiis looks a lot better than they actually are.

Nike’s New Golf Club Is Eight Clubs In One


Nike’s new golf club, the STR8-FIT can provide the functions of eight clubs with minor twitching and setting. The different positions come by adjusting the face angle, lie angle and effective loft; all thanks to a torque limiting wrench. The detachable club shaft can be used to set any of the eight available positions and locked when the job is done. PopSci points out that the club may not fit well with the rules of the game, but if you must have one, they’re available for $399.99.
