Where the fuck are the auto laces? Wasn’t the point/hype of the Air McFly’s as I like to call them the auto lace technology? Nike should have just waited until that technology was ready to market before running this campaign. I mean 2015 is four years away,if we get cars that can use piss as fuel before auto lacing imma be pissed. The commercial dodge the issue by pointing out that the sneakers “light up,” lights in shoes have been around for what…two decades? Shit I had LA Lights in 1990, technology has grown since 90s.
We have smartphones and instagram. We can face time on an iPhone why cant we have power laces? The technology is there right? The reason the shoe had so much hype was due to a movie and a possible patent Nike has on auto lacing. Nike you done dropped the ball,these shoes are now just as over hyped, more useless than the Air Yeezy’s. Thank you for destroying a boy hood dream of owning shoes that self-tie.
The new Nike MAGs, a line of Back to the Future Part II-inspired shoes. Fox showed off the kicks, which are almost an exact replica of the ones worn by Marty McFly himself in the 1989 movie. The actor explained that the limited edition shoes (there’s only 1,500 of them) will be auctioned off on Nike’s eBay site and that the proceeds will go to his Parkinson’s research foundation. As Fox put it, the coveted shoes will go to three groups of “people with major joneses”: Sneakerheads, Back to the Future fanatics (who Fox joked are, “Out of their minds… in a good way”), and the Parkinson’s community that want to help advance research. Better yet, Fox revealed that Google co-founder Sergey Brin will match up to $50 million.
Nike you redeemed your self by doing a real cool thing raising money for Parkinson’s research. Its brilliant to tie the shoe in with Parkinson. If you’re still interested, the auction is going on now. Click this to go there.
PS…WHERES MY GODDAMN HOVERBOARD?!?!
