Nike says that the future is here. The first person to receive a pair of the company's "Back to the Future" self-lacing shoes is the franchise's star Michael J. Fox, according to a Nike designer.
Nike shoe designer Tinker Hatfield sent Fox a letter today that stated, "As the first, most celebrated wearer" of the Nike Mag shoes, "we wanted you to be the first to receive a living pair," according to a tweet from the actor.
Earlier today, a spokesman for Nike would only say that a pair of the self-lacing Nike Mag shoes worn by Marty McFly in the 1989 film "Back to the Future II" is in New York City today -- but declined to comment further.
A Nike rep did not immediately respond to a request for comment about the letter to Fox.
Someone finally did it and it's Nike

Also another fun fact, the 'everything is fuel' is becoming a thing too with Toyota Mirai using trash as fuel.
