FX.co ★ Nike created trainers of the future

Many admirers of Back to the Future dreamed of having trainers just like those which the film protagonist Marty McFly had. During the movie, the guy had been wearing Nike trainers which could lace up automatically. The futuristic pair of shoes was created for the film especially, this model wasn't on sale. A few years ago, the company produced a limited series of almost identical trainers, but they weren't able to lace up.

The company wanted to catch an opportunity to be first producer that created sports shoes lacing up automatically. Thus, in March 2016 the brand announced that smart trainers were soon to be presented. Importantly, new Nike shoes are not the same as those which McFly had. However, they have an obvious advantage – the Nike Hyperadapt 1.0 laces which can tie up automatically.

This is the way how the laces tie up: as soon as a human heel touches the sensor, the mechanism reacts. On the sides of the trainers there are buttons which help to adjust the strength of tightening.

New Nikes are supposed to have glowing elements. If the trainers produce light, then quite simple design of the Hyperadapt 1.0. model will be really extraordinary.

In 2015, the company created a pair of trainers which were labeled Air Mag and laced up automatically. Besides, the design was similar with those which appeared in Back to the Future. The pair was presented to the actor who played a role of Marty McFly.

Hyperadapt 1.0 are to be on sale on Christmas Eve in 2016.
