Watch Michael J. Fox use actual self-lacing Nike shoes

In “Back to the Future Part II”, Marty McFly travels to October 21, 2015 to save his children – yet to be born in “Back to the Future’s” 1985. Movie fans may drool in envy, but it turns out the rest of us will have chance to grab a pair at an auction in 2016.

While Back to the Future gave the design a few retro-future chic, there are real, practical applications for self-lacing kicks.

The DeLorean also holds a pair of “Back to the Future” self-lacing Nike Mag sneakers… and they still light up.

“The first pair of self-lacing Nike Mag shoes is in New York City”, a Nike representative said to Engadget early Wednesday.

He didn’t just show up in the futuristic shoes. You got that right! You can read our verdict on which Back to the Future predictions did and didn’t come true here.

Michael J. Fox was a guest on Jimmy Kimmel Live on October 21. “We didn’t expect that would happen, but you put stuff in the movie you’re going to enjoy”, joked Gale.

The video, which was posted to the Facebook Page of the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research, has been viewed over eleven million times in eleven hours.

Fox and Christopher Lloyd (dressed as their iconic characters) stepped out of a time-traveling DeLorean, disoriented, and wanting to know what Kimmel was doing on television.

It’s the day Marty McFly and Doc Brown land in the future in the blockbuster “Back to the Future Part II”. It warms our hearts that Michael was the guy to try on the shoes first.

Nike released 1,500 pairs of the footwear without the self-lacing technology in 2011.

Especially for Back To The Future day, the pair reunited to find out whether 2015 had turned out how the movie had predicted.
