Tinie Tempah is a name that will be more familiar to our British readers than to our American audience, so if you aren't aware of him, all you need to know is that he's a UK rap star (yes, they have rappers in the UK, too!). As well as his talents with a microphone, he's also known for his obsessive interest in sneakers. He's got a huge collection of rare and exclusive footwear, but his $38,000 Nikes are probably his pride and joy.
The sneakers, which he's wearing on stage here, are based on those which were used in the 'Back to the Future' movies. In the film, they're capable of lacing themselves. We've been told that Tempah's sneakers are also capable of the same trick. That's neat, but we're not sure it's $38,000 worth of neat.
