Here’s the tough part: there are only 89 pairs of the Nike Mag available. Sneaker hunters will need to cough up $10 per ticket (plus a $1 handling fee), but buy as many tickets as you can afford because here is the truly awesome part: 100 percent of the proceeds will go to the Michael J. Fox Foundation (MJFF) which is working to find a cure for Parkinson’s disease.

Enter here and lace up! The draw runs from Oct. 4 through 11.
