Before now, the Nike MAG was the "greatest shoe never made", featured in Back to the Future II. Nike is now selling 1500 pairs of these amazing shoes on eBay -- for a limited time.

Over the last few days, original archived footage has been unearthed of the original Marty McFly, actor Eric Stoltz, playing the role before Michael J. Fox was called into replace him five weeks into shooting. Oddly enough, what I find most compelling is this alternative fading photograph shot featuring Stoltz instead of Fox. There’s something oddly surreal about seeing someone ...

If you’ve been looking to own a pair of your own Back to the Future II-esque self-tying kicks, you have a few options. You can make a pair yourself, you can wait for Nike to release a real pair or now you can buy the actual shoes worn by Marty McFly in the film. The sneakers will be auctioned off ...

A few weeks back we posted about a homemade pair of Back to the Future II style sneakers which were controlled through an Arduino microcontroller. The premise was good and so was the effort, but the motor on the back of the shoes was just too much of an eyesore to be practical. But we might be seeing a much ...

An Instructable user / Back to the Future enthusiast took it upon themselves to great a very real version of Marty McFly’s Self-Tying Nikes from the iconic second film in the series. As you step inside the shoe, the force sensor feels the additional pressure, adds tension to the lases, tightens the shoe and viola! The shoes wear utilize an ...

Well then, there goes my dream of hosting the best end-of-the-world bash ever. This is the last time I let you rain on my parade McFly. Hell, if all else fails we can just have Marty travel back in time and infect the Mayans with AIDS, amirite? Link

And that somebody is Etsy user RandomlyGenerated, who created these custom Back to the Future Wooden Peg People. Each detail is there. The suspenders, the red vest, the black beady eyes, the amputated legs. Just like the real thing. So as ...

Whoever thought attaching a DeLorean to a set of monster truck wheels was a good idea deserves some sort of medal. Mystified and thrilled were my emotions when I first set eyes on this beautifully absurd creation. Does the addition of the heavy wheels mean we’re going to need more than 1.21 gigawatts? Great scott. Link [via]

What if the time traveling DeLorean broke down just as Marty McFly was about to reach 88 MPH? According to this $19 t-shirt design, he’d have to take the time traveling bus. Or he could settle for a hike through time on that hoverboard of his, though he wouldn’t get far. Link (via)

Just when you thought that the presence of Back To The Future movie apparel couldn’t be any more abundant, in comes perhaps the coolest piece of gear in the entire film (next to the Delorean). Marty McFly’s very own hover board from the second and third installments of the trilogy has made an appearance on eBay. For a starting bid ...
