hi not to do with a bttf car but related with the Nike shoes that are coming out (these are not nikes)

these shoes are avail from halloweencostumes.com for 98 dollars plus taxes shippin

and someone in New Zealand decided to import some they are trying and sell for 499 NZD (around 400 usd)
just an example of people buying BTTF stuff for the wrong reason ( but i am sure to them its the right reason)

I have a feeling they're not the exact same ones. If I'm not mistaken, there are quite a number of different Chinese/knock-off. They all vary in price and accuracy. I might have to order a set of the $98 ones though!

i think they were made under licence from universal and sold in the US , power laces and nike sign is missing. I just got a pair and was "wowed"

Yeah i bought a pair also. I probably will buy another pair soon.
And take them to the costume shop in town and have the Nike Swoosh added.

About a month. Fixing to start on a better version.
I saw the process of making the real textured material the movie jacket was made out of,
Hard part will still be those damn bellows on the sleeves.

I bought about 5 pairs in varying sizes around my own shoe size that had the swoosh. I found out which size was closest to my own and sold the rest on ebay. I made enough profit so that my pair was free. I bought 4 Wii's when they first came out and did the same thing. In the end mine was free with only a little effort in the process.
