Nike Auctioning Shoes Inspired by "Back to the Future" to Benefit Michael J. Fox's Parkinson's Charity - BigScreen Journal: The BigScreen Cinema Guide

Nike is selling 150 pairs of its Nike MAG shoes, fashioned after Marty McFly's high-top shoes from the "Back to the Future" movies, and the proceeds will be going to The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research. (Michael J. Fox played Marty McFly in the movies)

The sale is happening on eBay and began yesterday, and will last 10 days. Click the Read link below to visit the official eBay page for the sale.

A very well-done promotional video is on YouTube featuring Bill Hader as a shoe store clerk in the Lone Pine Mall helping Kevin Durant with a purchase when Doc Brown shows up in his Delorean time machine:

Michael J. Fox is featured in another video that explains the promotion and appeals to the audience to help him raise money to defeat Parkinson's disease:

The bidding is fast and brisk, so knowing the outcomes of some sporting events might be handy if you're looking to pick up a pair for yourself!
