Back to the Future Automatic Lacing System : Design Noted from Michael Surtees

Back to the Future Automatic Lacing System

Posted by Michael Surtees on Thursday, August 26, 2010 · Leave a Comment

Usually patent diagrams aren’t that exciting. The above images are—they’re illustrating an automatic lacing system. A couple years back I had a post about the actual shoe here, here, and here. Now come the laces.

More info about the laces at Street Giant and Nice Kicks.

#Walkingtoworktoday Project

#Walkingtowork today is an ongoing photo documentation project open to anyone.

The guidelines are pretty simple.

1.Take an image while walking to work.
2. Post that image to flickr and tag the image with walkingtoworktoday (all one word).
3. Tweet the title of the image with the hash tag #walkingtoworktoday along with a link to the image on flickr.

But wait, you don't think you walk to work? You have to walk to your car to drive, or walk from your mode of transportation to the front door of where you work—so it is possible to make the stroll interesting for yourself. For more info on the idea visit the #walkingtoworktoday page.

You can also view the aggregated collection at walkingtoworktoday.designnotes.info/ from contributors around the world.
