Nike Air Mag Release Info
September 8th, 2011 by John K. | 33 comments

After reporting news of a mysterious yet rather obvious YouTube video last night, Sneaker News provided some new information regarding a special appearance by Michael J. Fox on the Letterman Show and also took a look back at the technology used on the Air Mag’s self-lacing system. Functional or not, the Nike Air Mag is undoubtedly the must-have of must-haves of the year and perhaps of the last decade, and to get your hands on one of the 1,500 pairs of the Nike Air Mag, you won’t have to stand in line or use lightning quick online-shopping skills. All it takes is patience and the willingness to outbid your fellow sneakerhead, because the Nike Air Mag will be available on eBay 150 pairs a day for 10 days, will all proceeds going to Michael J. Fox’s charity. The auctions will begin tonight and end on September 18th at www.nikemag.ebay.com. Thanks to SpainKicks for the info and be sure to stick with Sneaker News for more. And don’t forget to tune in to Letterman tonight when Marty McFly himself makes his long-awaited appearance!








Ya'll actually like these shits?! Whatever floats ur boat iguess, I don't care if these were 50$, I wouldn't touch these ugly ass things, but hey, dat's just me tho.
QUOTE FROM Denice3293- "people that dont even deserve this shoes will get them which isnt fair to the real sneakerheads" These shoes are being fu***** auctioned for Micheal J Fox and every person in this damn world that lives with that terrible disease. I hope your some immature ignorant 13 year old kid and not some 30 year old basement dweller whining because you want some exclusive sneakers well here is whats going on in the real world outside that basement punk.
Andddd by this time next week, cornballs like Chris Brown will be twitpicking/on this site rocking these kicks.....my motivation to make it big.
dese shoes are not tight at all u ppl just like shit cuz dey cost alot of $$$$$$$$ i think i stick 2 my J's
^^ exactly. This is for parkinsons, although I doubt I can afford em. Great job Nike and MJF.
It's for charity folks. Don't be so fn selfish. They are trying to get maximize donations for a good cause. nike isnt turning any profit of these and all donations are being matched, the shoes exist you'll no doubt get a stab at them at some point. I wanted a pair but if i cant afford them due to them being auctioned for charity I'm easy. You can still bid and still contribute to the cause. Have a heart man. Smh.
This some straight BS. Now if they would of mass produce these or at least 500,000 pair limited run at 249.99 a piece and donate 10% they would of made everyone happy or least the majority. I hope ANON takes down the auction site. You hear that ANON, where the F are ya"ll when we need you :(
Who are you people? Self lacing system my ass, its gonna be elastic! ... the people who believe this will actually lace itself to your foot are delusional. These shits arent even that hot... who gives a shit if they release as a GR in 2015... THIS IS 2011! speculate on it in 4 more years. In the mean time take your ass to ebay and wish you could buy them because each pair will sell for WAY more than you think..
honestly im really pissed because people that dont even deserve this shoes will get them cause micheal j fox is going to get the yapping and rich mother ffers from all over the world will be trying to get a pair which isnt fair to the real sneakerheads who will wear them and love them nike is really fuck up for this they coulda release more then that and still put the proceeds to his foundation they would have made way more money imo
NO POWER LACING!!!!
NO POWER LACING!!!!
NO POWER LACING!!!
Can we say limited release and retro/GR in 2015...?
They should still do a GR "take-down" version for $150. With all proceeds going to the foundation they would be doing even more of a good thing.
Typical Nike. I knew I have 0 chance of getting them, but the fact that they always pull this Bs is annoying.
Nike just dicked slapped the fuck out of resellers
IS 1500 PAIRS i am so !@#$% mad
Another history lesson of the "haves" vs the "have-nots" ... celebs and high-paid sneakerheads are going to flaunt this all in your face, people.
Well looks like everybody goin be on EBAY tonite and all week. Nice way to hustle us again nike.
Damn so sad rite now. They could of at least made them a quickstrike. Looks like everybody goin be on ebay this week.
these are cool, but I wouldn't wear these in public. and no I'm not 14 years old
They're releasing 150 pairs per day for 10 days, starting tonight, for a total of 1500 pairs.
Well, this doesnt rule out a quickstrike or general release in 2015....... I dont think this will be the last time we will see this shoe available to the general public...................................
1500 pairs FML!!!
MAAAAAAAAAAN THEY FUCKING WIT NIGGAS CHILD HOODS N SHIT LIKE SOOOOOO MANY PEOPLE WANT THESE N THIS IS WHAT THEY DO THEY BETTER FUCKING GR IN 2015 IM SO FUCKN SERIOUS

Perfect way for Nike to determine how much they gonna set the retail price on these....smdh

@trulyfresh23 you stupid as hell. Those 1500 pairs are being distributed 150 pairs per day for 10 days. Do the math. They're not going to give them all out at once.
150 pairs per day, for 10 days.
