The Original Nike Sneaker From Back to the Future II Is Up For Auction!!!

A vintage original Nike Air Mag sneaker, the one Marty McFly wore in Back to the Future II, is currently up for auction on eBay. Only the left shoe is available and you can tell by the photos that the sneaker has deteriorated badly. The auction, as of June 27th, is currently at a staggering $88,400.00 with about 4 days remaining.

It’s an extremely cool item, but you just have to wonder how much longer it will last in this condition. Sneakers are notorious for falling apart and they don’t make the best collectibles because of it. It might be time for someone to try and restore the sneaker. It wouldn’t be an original prop anymore if it was restored, but if it isn’t worked on there may be no sneaker left in another 10-15 years.

You can check out the auction here.
