Costume designer Susan Matheson encountered trouble looking for brand new Nike Vandal shoes that Kyle Reese wears in the 1984 sequence. Her search online and other various avenues mostly had second-hand and worn Vandals for sale. For months, she approached Nike with the request of manufacturing that specific model of shoes but Nike wanted her to design an ID with an Air-Force base. Matheson refused because, as a person with knowledge of sneakers, she did not want to feel guilty of cheating the audience, especially eagle-eyed fans of the first film who can spot the difference between those two bases. It was only after intervention by Paramount that Nike agreed to shut down production and manufacture 25 pairs of Vandals solely for this film, in what could be called Matheson's greatest personal moment in this film.
