The Nike Air Mag auction has wrapped up and has raised $US5.6 million for the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research ($US11.2 million if you count Sergey Brin’s contributions). It was an absolutely worthy cause for the iconic shoe.
Michael J. Fox showed up on The Late Show with David Letterman last night to officially announce the Nike Air Mag (aka the Back to the Future shoes). It’s Marty McFly himself, ladies and gentlemen!
Ever since Back to the Future Part II came out and tickled my fanciful soul with the Nike Air Mag, I’ve been waiting to get my hands on a pair. They’re finally real and oh my god they’re so dreaaamy.
Sure, you could wait for Nike to get moving on those self-lacing sneaker patents. But wouldn’t you rather own the Nike Air Mags worn by Marty McFly himself? Pretty soon, you’ll have your chance.
