Nike's Self-lacing Shoes are Coming

Nike is creating new shoe designs on a daily basis. In the article, Nike talks about one of its newest and most technological yet, which they say is similar to the self-lacing shoe seen in the movie Back to the Future II. The HyperAdapt 1.0, have an official release date of November 28.
TheHyperAdapt will require charging, the batteries that are included, which has to be done by a magnetic adapter. It will take three hours to get a full charge and Nike anticipates the battery will last about two weeks between recharges.Wearers will adjust the laces by pressing a "+" button by the tongue of the shoe to tighten and a "-" button to loosen. Lights on the side indicate how much battery power remains and give you an idea of when you should recharge. Blue is a full charge, yellow signals a few days' worth of battery life remains, and red means you should get to your charger said Tiffany Beers, a senior innovator at Nike.
