Coca Cola x Space Invaders
Coca Cola’s 125 years are bringing out a fair amount of attention by means of work from designers. Most recent to join the list is designer Erin McGuire who combined the design of the Diet Coke with Space Invaders to create an 8-bit look for the cans. Via RampagedReality
Hot on the heels (pun intended) of our earlier Power Laces posts, here is the news that Nike are looking to officially launch the Back To The Future Air Mag trainers!
See the sneak peek video above…
And the ‘behind closed doors’ invite pack below…..
When Nike gives you a call at midnight, you know it’s something good. With just a few hours notice Nike flew me out to LA for “a big announcement.” When they won’t tell you what it is until you get there, you know it’s something bigger than a new colorway of Dunks.
Upon arriving in the room, I found a box waiting for me with an iPod Shuffle with a personal message from Dr. Emmett Brown:
“Welcome to Los Angeles. If my calculations are correct, over the next 24 hours you are about to see some SERIOUS SH*T!”
Inside the box was an invite from to “IT’S ABOUT TIME…an unveiling that could change the course of time” as well as metal shield glasses.
The table of goodies that included mid 80′s candy, Throwback Pepsi (forumla from 1985), and a copy ofBack To The Future all but confirmed the suspicions.
About a year ago we shared with you these documents of the Marty McFly Nike Air Mag shoes registered with the US Patent Office.
It looks like we’re getting closer to 2015 than we thought!
