Marty McFly’s iconic Nikes in Back to the Future were originally Michael J. Fox’s personal shoes, a pair of white Bruins. Due to a mix-up, the costume department forgot to bring the appropriate footwear, leading Fox to offer his own. When the production needed multiple pairs, Nike was contacted to recreate the discontinued model, resulting in twenty pairs being made in just a week. This serendipitous decision became a defining element of McFly’s character and contributed to the film’s lasting cultural impact.
