This just in. OMG. Now take this with a grain of salt. For the moment, at least. Nobody has made visual contact with these kicks yet. But the signals are there. After all, Nike sent a cryptic message to Michael J. Fox yesterday. Hell, Marty McFly even hinted at it in the Toyota Mirai teaser! Could this […]

It’s October 21, 2015, the day when Doc Brown and Marty McFly gave us a glimpse of a possible future, one with flying cars, hoverboards, rehydrated pizza and 3D movies.

posted by Karlo Samson
I learned a new word today, marl, which the British & World English dictionary defines as, “a mottled yarn of differently coloured threads, or fabric made from this yarn.” It’s this kind of fabric that can be found in Nike’s newest colorways for the Lunarestoa 2 SE.
