Stop Your Grinnin' and Drop Your Linen: Ripley's 'Aliens' Reeboks Soon on Sale

Aliens Reeboks

The 'Back To The Future' hoverboard and self-lacing sneakers have already been wrenched from the film world and into reality. (Even Nike is patenting its own 'BTTF' lacing tech.) But, as definitive proof that everything old eventually becomes new again, you can soon get your hands on Ellen Ripley's Reeboks from 'Aliens,' although maybe only in Japan. "That's it, man! Game over, man, game over!"
