Sharp020: Nikeskateboarding.org Custom Nike Air Jordan 1 Carbon Fiber

Last week I posted up a Nike Dunk low by Florida based shoe customizer Sharp020. Once again Sharp020, who exclusively works with “decon-recon” custom shoes created a design based on his original project concept with NikeSkateboarding.org but this time on a Nike Air Jordan 1. Sharp020 came back with the kelly green accents and sun burst mid panels but for the first time he used a real suede as opposed to the sythetic suede he used on his shoes before. As if the suede was not enough, carbon fiber textured material was used to give the back uppers a bit more detail to go with the contrasted green stitching against black and silver panels. The end result is a super sleek futuristic look at one of the most classic timeless sneakers of all time, something the original company Nike Jordan Brand has trouble creating. Good work Sharp020. (hands clapping)

ST!ZO Customs: Toy Story Buzz Lightyear Custom Nike Flight Lite

Chicago, Illinois based shoe customizer ST!ZO entered these Buzz Lightyear themed Nike Flight Lite into our 3rd Custom Contest a few weeks back. Though he did not win, he was in the top 5. ST!ZO created a perfect play on the Disney’s Toy Story movie character space-age suit colors lime green, purple, silver, and emblems. He even added one of the claw machines little alien guys on the back heel. Buzz would be proud to wear these…or maybe a kid dressing up for Halloween(check the video). I’d wear these to the Toy Story 3 in 3D for sure!

3RCustoms: Custom Tokidoki Nike Dunk

Orlando, Florida based shoe customizer J3ster behind the brand 3R Customs finished these Custom Nike Tokidoki Nike Dunks a few months ago. I’m not too much up on this Japanese streetwear brand, but Tokidoki definitely has a worldwide presence from a quick Google search. 3RCustoms created this decon-recon custom using a signature Tokidoki camo print pattern for a majority of the shoes upper. The camo was accented by a bright red sole, candy apple glitter patent leather swooshes, and red suede liner. My favorite part is probably the detailed red contrast stitching and lining of the edges on the upper. Unfortunately these are a 1 of 1 for 3R Customs personal collection…you’ll have to make your own. Goooood luck with that. Practice first is all I can say.

Maybe 3RCustoms could make you something similar: 3R Customs Website

Dannys Custom Shoes based out of Illinois recently finished these Custom Nike Sweet Classics using a Freddy Krueger theme with the Nightmare On Elm Street character’s signature burnt skin, red striped sweater, and bloody silver razors. Danny also put the horror movie star’s ugly mug on side to halt any confusion of this custom Nike Sweet Classics theme.

Sharp020: NikeSkateboarding.Org Custom Nike Dunk Mint

This custom by Sharp020 from December definitely put the stamp on 2009 as the year of the “decon-recon” custom shoe. Florida based shoe customizer Sharp020 has created a few pairs like this now, based on the original concept he released with unofficial Nike SB fan site: NikeSkateBoarding.org. Unlike kelly green he used before he used a mint green to go with the black and silver. These look to be some of the best of the NSB.org theme: a Nike Dunk with 3m reflective Schotchlite on the toe and lace panels, black patent leather swooshes, sun burst mid panels, black suede, and mint green accents: splattered midsole and quilted liner. Topped off with the clean Sharp020 heel tabs and tongue tags.
