Celebrated around the world by nearly 16 million people of the Jewish faith, the holiday includes the lighting of candles, the giving of gifts, and festive family gatherings.

Nike launched the HyperAdapt, its first self-tying shoe, at the beginning of December – some in the press heralded the long-awaited moment as “Back to the Future 2” finally coming to life.
