#Nike Unveils #PowerLacing Sneakers #HyrperAdapt 1.0 After teaming up with #MichaelJFox to tease us with self-lacing Nike Mags on #BackToTheFutureDay in October, Nike has finally announced a mass production shoe that will feature real-life power laces. Meet the HyperAdapt 1.0. Announced today at the Nike Innovation Summit, the HyperAdapt 1.0 will be the first shoe to take advantage of Nike’s adaptive lacing (self-tying) technology, which the company is touting as an entire new platform for sneakers. How they work? To save wearers time, the shoes will automatically tighten as soon as you step into the shoe. “Your heel will hit a sensor and the system will automatically tighten,” explains Tiffany Beers, the project’s technical lead. “Then there are two buttons on the side to tighten and loosen. You can adjust it until it’s perfect.” The shoes will launch during the 2016 holiday season, in three colors. Pricing hasn’t been announced yet, but the company said that it will only be available for sale to members of Nike+, their new all-in-one product and events app. I must say I immediately fell in love with the white ones.... #GoingontheChristmasList . #SneakerHead
