If you're a dude and were born in the late 70s or early 80s, you are probably obsessed with the Back to the Future movies. And we've all been hoping for the awesome Nikes that Marty wears in BTTF2 and, up until we could drive, all wanted hoverboards.
I saw Michael J. Fox on Letterman a few nights ago and he was discussing a fundraiser auction thing he's doing for his Parkinson's research foundation. Here's a pretty awesome video about it -

The Future Is Now
Nike has patented the auto-lacer system that was probably the best thing about the entire Back to the Future series.

They Even Glow in the Dark
Do you ever see something that you think is so awesome that you kind of hate it? Like when you live in Miami and there are gorgeous women everywhere and for some reason it's annoying? This is in spite of the fact that I'm super charming and sometimes even get to smooch those sexy ladies. My mother tells me I'm handsome all the time, so I know I am at least a little bit.
What does this have to do with sneakers? I think the answer is obvious, since this is like the tenth post I've made about these shoes and I'm clearly running out of good titles. I'm not telling anyone that the pink and black ones come out on May 2nd because then everyone will want to come and hang out with Larry and me when we camp out to buy them. We're going to make s'mores maybe. We won't even have to make a fire since it's like a billion degrees out already. In closing, I hate Kanye and his stupid awesome sneakers and all the hot women in Miami and the humidity in this town. It's only April! Dammit. (Pssst, click on the photo to take an awesome tour of the making of the sneaker on the Complex website. You'll love it.)

Where Are My Yeezys?
I don't think you can actually buy these. The Nike Air Yeezy (made for Kanye) is obviously quite reminiscent of the pair of sneaks that Marty McFly wears in Back to the Future II. They are awesome. Kanye wore them on his last tour.
