Back for the future

Nike is doing something really awesome. They actually made the shoes that Marty Mcfly wore in back to the future 2 and are selling them via bids on ebay. Awesome Idea right? It gets better. 100% of the proceeds from these limited edition (1500 pairs, 150 per day for 10 days) goes to Parkinsons research foundation founded by marty himself Michael J Fox.




This one is Amazing, I love Cristopher Lloyd


I LOVED LOVED LOVED these movies as a kid. These movies were what fantasy and sci-fi were all about for me. They were nerdy and accessible all at the same time and had great plots. Speaking of which I need to re watch these!

  3. i always wanted those shoes, but i probably can't afford them. I wonder if they tighten themselves like in the movie.

  4. @superdonkey normally I would agree but since they are donation %100 of the profit I really think that's not a valid criticism in this case

  5. What I really want are the clothes that change size and dry themselves. Those would be incredibly useful!
