An update to this post appears at the bottom.

Nike's about to produce some incredible shoes from the future.Or rather, from Back to the Future, reports SlashFilm.

It started with a big tease via Twitter from movie producer Frank Marshall, who tweeted "Something big is coming soon. Can't say anything yet. No one should know too much about their own destiny. #BTTF"

Then TechCrunch reported on receiving an invitation to a Nike event taking place in Los Angeles today, where Nike would announce the release of the Air Mags, the self-lacing shoes that first made their appearance in Back to the Future II.

If that wasn't enough, Marshall's followup tweet points to a YouTube video uploaded by a user named DocEmmettBrown88, titled "Marty McFly's Closet."

Does this mean the end of tying shoes? Maybe. All we need now are the hoverboards.

UPDATE: It's official -- Nike demoed the shoes moments ago at its event in LA. NiceKicks has all the details here.
