Apparently, the Nike Airs that Marty wore in Back to the Future II might be release. Honestly, the thought makes me grin.
ESPN Page 2 has a great and extensive story about rabbit chasing/ catching in rural Florida and about how it makes the football players there fearless and fast. When I was young, maybe 7, my parents told me that if I could put salt on a rabbit’s tail, I could catch it. (They figured that if I could get close enough to put salt on a rabbit’s tale, I was close enough to catch it, my mom later told me when I confronted her with this.) So, of course, I spent days chasing rabbits around our yard with a salt shaker. Those things are really fast. I can imagine this would make you fast, especially if you do it in mud.
Both from Mefi.

The stuff on Digg (which was re-posted on metafilter and other sites) was not fact checked at all. The shoes are not being released. That’s why there’s an official website of the McFLY 2015 project, http://www.mcfly2015.com
P.S.: The fakes are not sneakers! They’re fakes made by some kid in his mom’s basement.
