Spread Your Wings and McFly

The day we’ve been waiting for is possibly at hand. We’ve waited nearly 30 years. The wait could possibly be over very soon. Nike has filed a patent for self-lacing shoes. The design in the patent looks like this:

OH! EMM! GEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Your leader is FUH-REAKING GEEKING OUT!!!!!!!!!

I have waited forever for these, and now Nike may actually, really, seriously, possibly, for real, I’m not even kidding make these!

I will buy three pairs of these glorious shoes. In the event they’re a limited run, I will need replacement pairs for down the road.

The straps tighten automatically and who knows, there may even be LED’s. Nike confirmed the patent. It’s real.

Here’s a link to the patent: http://www.wipo.int/pctdb/en/wo.jsp?WO=2009134858&IA=US2009042072&DISPLAY=STATUS
