Ever since the release of the hit classic Back to the Future II, the world has been completely enamored with the idea of self-lacing shoes — a purported luxury of the future. And though just a bit late, Nike has held to the film’s promises as silhouettes from the Adapt line have made the futuristic concept a reality. The brand’s latest, which goes by Adapt Auto Max in name, is far closer to the Air Mag in likeness as its lace unit would reveal. Parts of the Air Max 90 then complete a layered homage in terms of construction while Infrared tones handle the deep heritage references with some colored soles and heel counter pieces. Synthetics run replete throughout the rest of the upper with little in the way of panels, leaving quite a bit of blank space aside from the silver swooshes and lifted molds. Grab an official look at these below and expect a release to arrive at Nike.com hopefully on its scheduled May 20 date.
