Celebrity Buzz The KobeSystem is designed to help create success for already successful people. Even Kanye.
Films have a long history of inspiring people to do powerful things, but perhaps most incredible are the stories about amazing runners. You can run, and run, and run, like the characters in these movies, with Nike's new LunarGlide+ 3 Shields. Because you should never stop running.
Nike Mag Shoes is super hot on the BuzzFeed Network right now. Here's all the best viral buzz on Nike Mag Shoes.
Style Buzz The future is here, guys. Nike have released this teaser video for the new Nike Air Mag AKA the power-lacing shoes worn by Marty McFly in 'Back To The Future II'. When do we get our hoverboards?
Ever feel like Don Quixote, fighting unmovable windmills? So did Rosa Llap, who designed this awesome poster for AdBusters.

Twice the child labor in Asia!
Tech Buzz A few months ago, Blake Bevin unveiled a prototype for power lace sneakers inspired by Back To The Future 2. She began a 2nd prototype and started a kickstarter. But, Nike filed their own power lace patent in 2009, so it seems that the race to the first power lace sneaker may be on.
Culture Buzz Our choice of video games, like music and film, say a lot about who we are. Some people like to take this form of self-expression and run with it! These creative “soles” use video games as their inspiration in foot-forward fashion.
Style Buzz Check it out you guys. The Nike Air 2015 Kicks, (soon to be) IRL! I am happy to report that Nike is doing it's best to meet the Back to the Future II challenge of “Power Laced” shoes. [Via Engadget]
My butt is big and round like the letter “C”. Believe it or not, this is the new ad campaign Nike has released for their butt-toning sneakers, and it's rather excellent.
I appreciate what Nike is trying to do for women in this ad…but I don't know any woman who would refer to her ass as a space heater, embassador, or border collie. That's just giving it too much credit.
With all the arguments over the last few days about dates in Back to the Future, I think we all need to take a step back. I'm fairly certain any fan of the movies is impatiently waiting for Self Lacing Shoes and they're almost here! Sure, they're not very practical but it's a start, 2015 is still 5 years away. Next up: hoverboards! Come on Mattel!
In support of the World Cup, Nike hijacked Johannesburg's biggest skyscraper and installed the world's largest interactive LED screen. People chose their favorite players and wrote a message, and both were projected in realtime across the building. Did the vuvuzela just get stomped out for the ultimate sign of World Cup fandom?
Nike made a 3-minute ad film to convince you to watch the World Cup and buy their products, in that order.
Despite the conspicuous lack of boxer briefs, it's fun and vaguely effective. It also has famous people (Federer, Kobe, The Queen) if you need that.

Not a single study has ever shown that fancy running shoes make you less prone to injury. In fact they may make you MORE likely to hurt yourself. And the more expensive they are the worse they are for your feet.
Style Buzz Next month, Nike will release the “Glen Quagmire Nike SB Dunk High” inspired by Quagmire's clothes on Family Guy. The blue matches his jeans while the gold star pattern represents his stylin' button-up shirt. Giggity awesome.
Kobe Bryant sells Ankle Insurance atop a horse in this viral vid for Nike. Regardless of it being an advertisement, it's still entertaining. Bryant is quickly becoming the top athlete viral video star, if that means anything.
