Marty McFly Costume Marty McFly was always ahead of his time, whether he was rocking the rad skateboard skills in 1955 Hill Valley or the futuristic sneakers in 2015. Recreating the look of this teen heartthrob is pretty simple — you just need a jean jacket and a red puffy vest. The shoes are where it gets a little tricky. While there was a whole cult around the '16 Nike Mag shoes that Marty wore in Back to the Future Part II, you're going to have to be lucky enough to score some real MAGs (if they ever come on the market). A pair of white kicks with speckled detailing will work just fine for this costume. You can also pick up a set of these Dickies suspenders, which have that vintage '80s wash that looks so right. Add a Casio calculator watch to your outfit to get the full look of the coolest kid from the '80s. Hoverboard A clever fan costume recreates Marty McFly on a hoverboard for Back to the Future Day. Michael J Fox and Christopher Lloyd reunited for the movie’s 25th anniversary this week, as millions celebrated the 'future' that they imagined back in 1989. From self-tying sneakers to flying cars, 'Back to the Future' made many predictions that seem to have come true. One of the most popular futuristic gadgets featured in the movie was the hoverboard. The movie prop triggered mass hysteria when it premiered, and prompted people to search for a real version of the device. The first working model was created by Mattel, and is now sold for a hefty price. It also comes with its own display stand. The hoverboard doesn't actually hover, but it can vibrate and rumble when a user is on it. It is powered by a 3.7 V lithium-ion battery, which promises up to 6 hours of use before needing a recharge.
