Nike HyperAdapt 1.0- Self-lacing Shoes

"Even though the future seems far away, it is actually beginning right now. Mattie Stepanek"

NIKE RECENTLY RELEASED THE SHOES THAT WE CAN CALL THE SHOES OF THE FUTURE.  YES, THESE SHOES ARE INSPIRED FROM THE MOVIE BACK TO THE FUTURE PART 2 WHICH WAS RELEASED IN THE YEAR 1989. THEY ARE ALSO CALLED NIKE MAG .THE MAG WAS DESIGNED BY TINKER HATFIELD AND TIFFANY BEERS. ACTUALLY TINKER WAS ASKED TO DESIGN THE SHOE FOR THE MOVIE IN 1989 , BUT 15 YEARS LATER A ONLINE PETITION WAS SIGNED TO CREATE THE SHOES AGAIN FOR COMMERCIAL PURPOSES. SO TINKER ALONG WITH TIFFANY RECREATED THE SHOE WHICH TOOK THEM 6 YEARS IN  MAKING. 

THE SHOES ADAPTIVE LACING TECHNOLOGY HAS A HEEL SENSOR WHICH AUTOMATICALLY TIGHTENS THE LACES DEPENDING ON THE WIDTH OF OUR FOOT.  THE HEEL SENSOR  ALERTS THE SHOE WHEN THE FOOT  ENTERS THE SHOE. IT WORKS ON CABLE LACING SYSTEM. A HIGH TECH  MINI MOTOR TIGHTENS AND LOOSENS THE CABLE LACES.A RECHARGEABLE  BATTERY PROVIDES POWER TO THE MOTOR AND THE LED LIGHTS . IT CAN GO FOR TWO WEEKS FROM A SINGLE CHARGE. IT IS WATER RESISTANT ALSO , SO NO ELECTROCUTION.
