MSNBC is reporting that Nike is planning to make these self-lacing sneaks (which came from the really old movie Back to the Future 2) a reality! They’ve just filed a patent (yeah, that’s the pic up there) which demos the tech that could make it happen.

It’s for the new Okami game for the DS called Okamiden. You can use Chibiterasu’s tail as a bookmark!

Too bad the book cover is only available in the online Capcom store in Japan. Boo!

Last Saturday, Ramona and I went to Enchanted Kingdom’s Biki Waterworld to attend the launch of Crocs’ newest footwear collection!

That’s one huge inflatable slide where visitors can scooch and tumble their way into the pool!

Can you spot the huge octopus?

Crocs just made summer feel longer with their latest kiddie designs!

Kids in their hippest summer wear and their favorite pair of Crocs walked the runway to show us their feel good feet!

If you’ve grabbed a copy of our May 2010 ish and read our Hot List, you’d recognize these fancy kicks. Shipping straight outta Argentina, Paez shoes aren’t just classy to look at, they’re super comfy, too. If you don’t have Hagrid-sized feet, there’s also the Mini Paez, which come in sizes tailor-made for KZ-ers.

They recently just officially launched in the Philippines last Saturday at Imagine That play center in Makati (they’ve got tons of summer workshops, so you guys should check that out, too), and me and a friend were there to take snaps and try them out. Hit the jump for more pics!
