Perhaps no single sneaker design of the year generated more buzz than the Nike Air Mag 2011, which we’ve seen on the feet of such celebrities as Kanye West and San Francisco Giants pitcher Brian Wilson. In case you were wondering about the successes of the actual campaign aimed at raising money for charity, you’ll like to hear that the several different auctions for the several different pairs of the Nike Air Mag 2011 raised more than $5.6 million for The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research. Moreover, co-founder of Google Sergey Brin has promised to match every dollar- meaning a total of over $11 million will go towards helping “eradicate Parkinson’s from the space-time continuum.”
