FACTS. Even with a slight markup they'd still sell
NIKE AIR MAG 2015

at 1m pairs sold at $500 would be half a billion dollars towards PD. but I can only imagine the amount of complaints and issues they would have with the autolacing feature/led's even if they put a disclaimer that there was no warranty with the purchase of the shoe.

Nike employees had a raffle for 1 pair...............1 damn pair, SMDH. I guess the chances were alot better than the general raffle, but still. And it was only 1 entry allowed per employee.

While I am salty, Im sure this is not the last we have seen of the Nike Mag. Once they streamline the manufacturing process, and stop trying to keep them a secret, they will produce more, and in different colorways.

Didnt Tinker say there were entries were in the MILLIONS? Assuming he means actual entries, even at 1M entries thats at least 10M generated in one year for charity. I think they did what they intended.
If hyperadapts actually retail for $1000, Im thinking making MAGS in mass production is not feasible

I WOULD BELIEVE THAT EXCEPT THAT THOSE HYPERADAPTS WILL PROB HAVE MORE PAIRS AVAILABLE AND MORE SIZES SO IF THEY CAN DO IT FOR THAT SHOE, I DON'T SEE WHY THEY CAN'T FOR THE MAGS.

Im betting there will be more drawings in the following years, no way they spent 10 years engineering this shoe only to make 100 of them and call it quits.

That's why we will have the HyperAdapts.
I believe they've even stated they've used the technology from the adapts and incorporated it into the Mags

From he sound of it they had trouble fitting the mechanics into the mags. With the adapts they're starting fresh and can design around the necessary parts. Not sayin that's the sole reason, but it's not a clear cut comparison.

Yeah the MAGS arent even fully automated or fully sensing like in the movie. I can definitely see them putting more time & effort into an actual shoe that people a with PD or other physical disabilities can actually benefit from & wear on a daily basis, instead of focusing on movie memorabilia at this point

yeah lets wait for the next iteration...Tinker & Tiffany & Mark will be like screw Nike & sneakers by that point. Theyll be sitting pretty on a beach island drawing retirement, divided, & royalty checks. The newcomers that take over wont care about BTTF. :\

Yeah man I don't understand. If Nike REALY wanted to help out charity while making a little profit for themselves, they could have made 1,000,000 of these things and priced them at $500 and they would have sold out instantly.
*edit* Sorry I just saw Memphis's post and quoted him. After posting I scrolled up and read the thread backwards and see that a ton of people mentioned the same exact thing I did even down to the price and quantity made lmfao.

You do know the mags in the movie weren't motor driven right? The laces were pulled down manually
Got me thinking of this. Gotta love the 80's

Do you know how many pairs of 2011 Mags broke ? i swear i've seen more than 20 with broken LEDs. Now imagine 20k+ pairs in the market.
imo i think this is why they wont make so many. they probably wont even release many Hyper adapt
