Expect a lot of illuminated high-top shoes at this year’s Halloween parties.

That's because HalloweenCostumes.com is selling officially-licensed Marty McFly shoes that were showcased in the 1985 blockbuster movie "Back to the Future." CNET reports that while the shoes do not have automatic power-lace technology, Velcro straps will keep the shoes on your feet. Another thing missing from these replicas is the Nike and Air Mag branding. That's because Nike is working on their own pair of Marty McFly shoes. The replica models are licensed through Universal Studios.

The shoes do light up with LED lights that can be recharged via a USB cable.

Fans can grab a pair for $98.99 when they are back in stock at the end of September.
