So this year, the Nike Air Mags are supposed to be re- released.
The Nike Air Mags are the shoes that Marty McFly wore in Back to the Future 2 when h
e travelled to 2015.
In honor of the year and film, Nike designer Tinker Hatfield says they are going to release the model again.
The were originally 1,500 pairs which were auctioned off in 2011 on ebay and the proceeds went to the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s disease research.
These pairs auctioned off in 2011 had functioning lights and came with a charger and magnetic box.
The 2015 model allegedly also come with a functioning auto- lacing system.
The 2011 models sold on auction from anywhere from three to six thousand dollars and buying a pair now would cost between six and nine thousand dollars.
No one knows the retail cost or release dates so far, or how limited and difficult they will be to get. Some speculate the new model will be re-released on the 21st of October because that is the exact day Marty traveled to.
