Nike Mag Shoe from 'Back to the Future Part II' Sells for over $90K at Auction
One of the 1989 Nike Mag sneakers from Back to the Future Part II sold at auction for $92,100, according to Michael Conway of Sole Collector.
Two hundred twenty bids were made for the shoe, which was "one of [an] extremely few that were made for the film."
Per Conway, "the brainchild of legendary Nike designer Tinker Hatfield and former Nike tech developer Tiffany Beers, the silhouette's steep price tag, innovative tech and exclusivity quickly cemented its place in sneakerhead fandom, establishing itself as one of the greatest grails ever."
The shoe itself is severely deteriorated, with a "detached outsole, cracked midsole and crumbling heel." But it is a crown jewel for kicks collectors and a Hollywood memento, making it quite the acquisition.
