I don’t think there wasn’t a kid of the 80s who didn’t love Marty McFly! How cooler can you be then having a flying skateboard and a time traveling car with doors that flip up. I remember watching those movies vividly as a kid in the theaters in London, I loved every moment of them and I loved how funny Doc Brown was, always getting electrocuted. I ordered the 25th Anniversary BluRays as soon as they came out, and I was thinking about these shoes since it was a cool interpretation of the DeLorean. Turns out I didn’t have a chance compared to the lines of nerds who were ready and waiting for these shoes, every store from Boston, NY, Santa Monica, San Francisco, Washington, and a few others were sold out within hours. There were even some stores that were promised to receive a quantity but didn’t get anything, these shoes flew off the shelves. Within a few hours the limited stock of these shoes were gone, it seems the nerds were out to kill.
