FY16_INNO_SNOWCAP_WHITE_HERO_V2_0043_hd_1600Looks like the future of footwear is finally making its way to the present.  Say hello to the Nike HyperAdapt 1.0, the 1st real sneakers w/ Back-To-The-Future Power Laces.  While the Nike MAG from Back To The Future Part II were out 1st, they were more so a type of retro sneaker.  

Earlier today at the Innovation Summit, Nike unveils their autolacing system, codenamed E.A.R.L. (Electro Adaptive Reactive Laces).  They’re designed by Tinker Hatfield w/ Mark Parker & Tiffany Beers giving the HyperAdapt a damn-near symbiotic connection between foot & shoe.  Wearers can adjust the straps manually but Nike has plans for a more seamless function down the road.  One day be able to sense whether or not if the shoes need to be tighter or looser.  So dope.  

Nike_EARL_Outsole_hd_1600The Nike HyperAdapt 1.0 will arrive exclusively to Nike+ members during this  upcoming holiday season.  No word yet on pricing but don’t expect it to be cheap.
