NIke ➔ Marty McFlys

The biggest shoe release in history is upon us, and until now, the most famous shoe never made, and there are only 1500 pairs. Marty McFlys shoes are back from the future and were auctioned to benefit of The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research. 

There isn’t much else to say other than these are pretty much everything the originals were, being created in 1989 by legendary Nike designer Tinker Hatfield, and now being recreated by him with help from Tiffany Beers. 

It’s as true to the original prop as possible, though you’ll have to wait until 2015 for the power laces.

Check them out here, and be sure to play around with the destination time on the site, there are some nice easter eggs, including an appearance by Mr. Hatfield himself.

And for the graphic ones...

For the launch of the Nike MAG and the ‘Back For The Future’ episode, Nike commissioned four artists to create original movie posters. Brent Rollins, Kate Gibb, La Boca and Will Sweeny each provided a mad poster for the series.
