The Letterman appearance tonight is definitely about the new shoes:

@MichaelJFoxOrg
michaeljfox.org Nike MAG from Back to the Future II—is it here? Watch Letterman tonight for more details http://bit.ly/rpEP6J #michaeljfox #nike #parkinsons

Sounds like an excellent idea for fundraising!

 

[Marvel Spider]

I'm interested about the price.....

 

[Teelie]

If we're finally getting power laces...could Jaws 19 really be too far behind?

They still have what, 3-4 more movies to go before they hit 19?

Yeah, I can't figure out where to buy them. I know they'll have a pre-order or something, but I think these will sell out quick. Maybe there will be a link after Letterman tonight?

 

[Marvel Spider]

OH COME ON!!!

Not till 2015? Why announce it now and make me wait lol.

 

[TX85]

maybe he's just teasing until officially revealed or something??

 

[Travesty]

Or maybe they're just regular shoes with no powerlaces.

I figure they have to be power laces from that ad.

 

[Hush]

I'm buying a pair end of story.

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

I was delighted to hear about the shoes. I would really like to have one but since the shoes will be auctioned off, they will sell out pretty quickly.

All for a good cause though.

Exactly!

Can't wait to see Michael plugging these on Letterman tonight.

 

[Travesty]

So it looks like they'll sell only 150 a day on ebay. Hmmm.......

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

Yep, it's wonderful that all the money will go to The Michael J. Fox Foundation.

But, man, would I love to have a pair.

 

[TX85]

Would be awesome to see MJF wear a pair on tonight's episode!

I wouldn't be surprised. I'll be watching tonight, to see.

So I guess they start to go on sale tonight at 8:30 pacific time on ebay. I'm gonna try and see if I can get a pair.

I'll try to get a pair as well. They're going to sell out fast and I'm guessing there are a lot of crazier people with a lot more money than me, so it's going to be hard .

Where is news saying they are only being auction off.

 

[Travesty]

Where is news saying they are only being auction off.

This is where I read it.

There will only be 1500 made, and will be auctioned off for 10 days only, at 150 day.

 

[Solidus]

Eh I bet if they are popular, Nike will release them market wide. Money is money to them. I hope they do because I want a pair. Maybe at first that is all they are doing, but it will get good marketing out on it.

Nike does this all the time. They release a very limited amount of shoes, and never release them again. It's the way they've been doing things for years.....
