This past weekend, famed YouTuber Casey Neistat had the fortunate opportunity to test out the super rare MAG with Nike senior innovator, Tiffany Beers. The tech enthusiast recently uploaded a video documenting his up-close experience with the auto-lacing sneaker. Neistat is one of the chosen few to have a private session with the futuristic shoe and he undoubtedly cannot contain his excitement throughout the nine-minute clip above. “Oh, my God!” he exclaims as the shoe begins to tighten around his foot.

It was only last Tuesday when Nike unveiled a raffle for the MAG silhouette first seen in Back to the Future Part II. Only 89 pairs have been produced with 84 up for grabs in the drawing to benefit the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s research. Raffle entries are set to close today at approximately 11:59 p.m. ET with each ticket going for $10 USD. Not to mention, an auction was recently held in Hong Kong for the extremely limited shoe with the winning bid coming in at a whopping $104,267 USD.
