Marty McFly Costume
When Marty McFly and Doc Brown time-traveled to 2015 in the 1989 sci-fi sequel, they wore Nike Air Mags — light-up shoes that automatically lace themselves. The sneakers are considered one of the most innovative innovations in sneaker history and a pop culture icon.

Designed by shoe veteran Tinker Hatfield, the shoes first captured attention as movie props. They then became a reality when Nike released a limited number of pairs through an auction in 2011 to raise money for the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s disease research. The original versions were based on the film’s design but did not include the self-lacing feature.

This pair of Nike Air Mags was worn by Fox on set and has the same serial number as the ones in the movie. It is also a US size 7, the same size as Fox wore in the film, and one of the hardest sizes to find. The sneakers are expected to sell for between $30,000 and $50,000.

Hoverboard
Among all the futuristic technologies displayed in the movie, the hoverboard got by far the most attention from audiences. Director Robert Zemeckis jokingly claimed in an interview that the film’s prop was real, and the device promptly became a pop culture sensation.

Despite its lack of actual levitation, this replica has the look of the real thing and even features a display stand for easy mounting. The board also vibrates and rumbles with sound effects from the film. PROS:

This impressive replica of Marty McFly’s hoverboard is sure to impress any Back to the Future fan. It features every detail from the movie including auto-drying jackets and self-tying shoes, and it’s a must-have for any collector of sci-fi memorabilia. The only drawback is the box’s glued on tabs, which are difficult to open without risking ripping or damaging the item. If you can find a way around that issue, this is an excellent buy.
