Nike has given shoppers more reason to save up for Cyber Monday after announcing that the real-life version of the automatic lacing shoes in the “Back to the Future” movie is going to be on sale at select Nike stores in the United States starting Nov. 28.

Heidi Burgett, the public relations director of the American sporting goods company, took to Twitter the most-anticipated announcement Wednesday.

Touted as HyperAdapt 1.0, Nike’s power-lacing footwear was inspired by the Nike Mag shoes that Michael J. Fox wore in the 1989 film “Back to the Future Part II.”

Equipped with a pressure sensor in the sole, HyperAdapt 1.0 shoes’ laces will automatically tighten once the wearer’s foot is inside. Adjustment in the tightness of the laces can be done through the external buttons near the tongue.

As expected, the self-tying shoes have to be charged. According to a “Wired” video released Wednesday, charging the shoes on a wireless charging pod takes three hours and a single charge can last up to two weeks. The LED lights built on the heel indicates when the shoes are low in battery as well as when the laces are tightening.

Burgett’s announcement did not include the price tag for the HyperAdapt 1.0. However, sneakers enthusiasts can book appointments to experience the self-lacing shoes also start on Nov. 28. The adaptive lacing shoes will be available in three colour variants.

Nike unveiled the HyperAdapt 1.0 in March during the Nike Innovation 2016 event in New York City. The company said designing the technology of the self-tying shoes has been in the works since 2013.

Shoe designer Tinker Hatfield said the HyperAdapt 1.0 will give athletes the ease to quickly adjust how tight or loose their shoes fit during training or midway into any game.
