Well, it’s about time. Nike finally broke its silence regarding the release of the Nike Mag with a simple tweet directed toward Michael J. Fox. In addition, Nike PR extraordinaire Heidi Burgett explicitly mentioned “self-lacing shoes” for October 21st, 2015. This doesn’t quite confirm that a release could go down, but worst case scenario is that the brand officially announces it for a later date.
So what if the power-lacing Nike Mag does release on October 21st? Well, pandemonium would be putting it lightly. If Nike repeats the 2011 release by dropping these exclusively through eBay, expect the bids to go much higher than the non-lacing versions did four years ago. In fact, we wouldn’t be surprised if these averaged $10,000 a pair. In any case, keep it locked in on Sneaker News for the latest on the Nike Mag.
.@realmikefox see you tomorrow.
