I picked these up on the 7th of this month but never had a picture of them till now;

"Stussy" Huarache light



For some reason flightclub had them for $200 but I picked these up on hypebeast forum for $85.00 shipped. I became a fan of the Huarache light after seeing both QS releases with the Jordan XI "bred" and "cool grey" colorway. There's really not much to say about this shoe other than the level of comfort and support you'd expect from a running shoe. I've been wearing them for the pass few days straight, it's RARE I do that with any shoe but I can't get over the over all look and feel of it. The color pops a little too much for my liking but I thought it would be ideal to pick them up as a work out shoe.

Lets talk about the new Mcfly (Back 2 The future) leaked pictures.

Before we do lets go back to the first round;



In 1989 the infatuation with the sneaker began. Since than there's been rumors about Nike releasing the shoe, petitions to get Nike to release the shoe, 309849023489230 custom sneakers.

The blue prints to the actual shoe and patten for the idea was leaked out on sneaker forums everywhere which started the uproar back up once again;



The ACTUAL prop from the movie hits ebay, the first time I saw the link the biding was at a cool $2,000 with a few days left on it. The winning bid was $5,300;




With all the hype that this fictional shoe has started though out the year one man decided to....not make it happen but make something very similar to it. His name; Kobe.

Nike and Kobe hit everyone with the 2015 Hyperdunk. The shoe sold out within minutes of being sold at UNDFTD LA and within hours or purchase the shoe hit many forums and ebay for a cool $1,000;



Hands down the BEST release of 2008.

Not the real deal but pretty damn close, huh? Well Nike went ahead with there skateboard line (Nike SB) and released yet another "Mcfly" inspired shoe. This time Nike decided to use their TRE AD model. For the inspiration the TRE AD fits in just right. Everyone jumped on the bandwagon and stopped talking shit on this model after this shoe released.



Shoes featured a glow in the dark swoosh and speckled midsole which turned a generally nice heather grey shoe into a neck breaker. Recently I was able to pick up a pair in a trade with a local head.

So whats next for this colorway? Is all the Mcfly inspired shoes done for? Not jsut yet.

Pictures surfaced the internet the pass week of a new "Mcfly" inspired shoe by Nike. The Nike Hypermax. pay no mind to the "tennis ball" Hypermax no the right. Although it IS a nice shoe that's another topic for another time.



The Marty McFly Nike Hypermax features a grey nylon upper accented with the same powder blue and pink accents found on the Hyperdunks and the Nike Air Mag’s in the Back To The Future movie. The Nike Swoosh and strap are finished in white, as well is the tongue which is made of mesh. The mid-sole is done in grey and includes the blue speckle pattern which many people have come to love on the McFly Hyperdunks.
