The future has arrived. Nike will release self-lacing sneakers

Remember how in Back to the Future 2, Marty McFly went to the future and got sneakers that lace up on their own? Nike has finally introduced the real version of such sneakers.

The Nike Hyperadapt 1.0 was created by designer Tinker Hatfield and Nike Senior Innovator Tiffany Beers. According to Beers, the laces tighten automatically when a person's heel touches a special sensor. There are two buttons on the side of the shoe that allow you to tighten or loosen the lacing.

There are no other details about the Nike Hyperadapt 1.0, but according to a video from Cristiano Ronaldo, glowing elements will be built into the sneaker.

The Nike Hyperadapt 1.0 will be available for the 2016 Christmas season. The sneakers will be available in three colors, but will only be available to users of the Nike+ app.

• In October 2015, Nike released one pair of real-life Air Mag sneakers, replicating the shoe design from Back to the Future 2. This pair went to Michael J. Fox, who played Marty McFly. The release of the sneakers was timed to coincide with the day that Marty and Doc left the past - October 21, 2015.
• The media later examined a patent describing how Air Mags work.
