Nike Finally Obliges with Marty ‘Air McFly’ Shoe

It took nearly twenty years but Nike has finally relented and produced the ‘Air McFly’ athletic shoe that first made its debut on the feet of Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox) in the popular Back to the Future films of the last 80’s.

Nike had Kobe Bryant be the official spokesperson to release the new shoe to the public.

The film, which largely took place in the year 2015, introduced viewers to many a futuristic wonder, but none were so iconic as the light blue high-tops worn by Michael J. Fox. Ever since the film premiered, folks have been begging Nike to produce the shoes for the masses. Now, Nike has finally obliged… sort of.

The shoes were recently reveled at an event headlined by Kobe Bryant. Ever the showman, the hoopster even arrived in a DeLorean. Fans lined up way in advance, but according to Wired, many went home disappointed. Nike only made 350 pairs of the specially designed kicks, not nearly enough to satisfy the fans.

Well if you are one of the lucky 350 people that landed a pair of the new/old Nike Hyperdunk Supreme (Nike’s new hip name for the shoe) then congrats.  If not you can try you luck out on eBay.

I just checked and there was a pair on the online auction site for $1,055.00 with 42 bids so far.

    looks nothing like the ones from the movie. They were only cool, because they had no laces and automatically tightened themselves based on your foot. The one Nike released is just Kobe’s hyperdunk sneaker with the colors of the movie “air mcfly”
