http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/02/16/back-to-the-futures-power-laces-are-coming-in-2015 Nike is reportedly planning to make self-tying, self-tightening laces available next year. Marty McFly's self-tightening power laces are reportedly going to become a reality in 2015. According to Sole Collector, Nike designer Tinker Hatfield announced that this particularly awesome aspect of Marty's futuristic footwear will arrive next year, which coincidentally or not, is the year he time-travels to in 1989's Back to the Future Part II. For the uninitiated, 'power laces' are both self-tightening and tying, and are less cool than hover-boards, but perhaps equally as cool as tiny pizzas that blow up into big ones (are those a thing yet?) Nike created an extremely limited amount of Marty McFly's iconic MAG's with regular laces back in 2011, the proceeds of which went to the Michael J. Fox Foundation. Hopefully we'll see updated versions of these, complete with power laces, in our near - and utterly extraordinary - future.
