La Boca x Nike x Back For The Future

September 10th, 2011

We feel extremely honoured to have been asked to create a poster for the launch of the Nike MAGs in LA on Thursday. Amongst all the excitement of the release no one was (understandably) looking at the walls – but still, the posters were there, and we’re happy with that! The MAGs that feature in Back To the Future 2 are probably amongst the most anticipated sneaker releases ever, and 1500 pairs have now been made available on eBay. 150 pairs a day for 10 days. Prices are getting crazy but all proceeds will be donated to the Michael J. Fox Foundation to help in the fight against Parkinson’s Disease.

Today we are mostly listening to our old friend (and often enemy) Depth Charge. Our studio wouldn’t exist without him. Some of these tracks are 20 years old. Genius – no question.
