words \/\/ Nick DePaula:<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Every shoe that a footwear designer creates will eventually be released in the future, of course.<\/p>\n

Typically, that’ll be around 12-18 months later on, but back in 1988, Tinker Hatfield was working on a project set some 27 years in the future.<\/p>\n

The shoe, the Nike MAG, was to be featured in the “Back To The Future 2” movie a year later in the late 80s, and it would go on to become one of the most iconic sneakers in pop culture.<\/p>\n

“In 2015, a sneaker is still a sneaker!” Tinker playfully noted on one sketch.<\/p>\n

“I thought about the year 2015,” Hatfield recalls. “And I had a strong opinion that shoes might be somewhat intelligent and able to turn on and become alive in the future.”<\/p>\n

With that initial insight in mind, that shoes would\u00a0incorporate power in some way, Hatfield sketched\u00a0a veering, sleekened high-top sneaker with “power laces.” One sketch even featured “growing Air bags.”<\/p>\n

Check out several of Tinker Hatfield’s original Nike MAG sketches below in our latest Sneaker Sketch of the Week<\/a>, and stay tuned for more launch news tomorrow of the 2016 version of the MAG.<\/p>\n
