Customs made with paint.
We really love these shoes. Hmmm we will put down $10 this comes out from Nike within the next year or two. Cause you know they are putting their “safari print” on everything. Great Dunk lows by our dude Twitch! Undoubtedly the best Nike Air Safari inspired custom to date. Can’t get much better.
Back in November customizer Sole Brother got a great opportunity to make a run of 6 pairs based off the website Digg.com(if you don’t know what that is….wow…check it!) The result was a extremely clean design with glow in the dark capabilities. More from Sole Brother:
When Matt Van Horn of Digg (the world’s largest social news website) came to me looking for unique custom shoes, needless to say I was thrilled! I’ve been a long time Digg user, and I definitely couldn’t pass up a chance to create some exclusive custom kicks for them. The custom Air Force Ones feature a spiffy Digg color scheme, and a cool glow-in-the-dark “Digg” pattern. I produced 5 pairs of Limited Edition sneakers for the Digg staff and 1 pair for myself.The founder of Digg, Kevin Rose, and CEO Jay Adelson were gracious enough to sign my pair.Here’s what I designed:
Nothing crazy, just simple clean, good use of a base shoe. The purple clear sole is perfect for these. A solid fade, quite factory looking from Desp1.
Latest from Gourmet Kickz, in Chef’s words:
The “Before He Rose” concept is a play on words. The meaning behind the title stems from the idea that before there were any icons classified as heroes, there was the son of GOD. When looking at HIS sacrifice and what HE did for the children of GOD, he is in fact the first hero on earth. The duality of the title comes into play here as J.C. in fact rose from the dead after his crucifixion. So the title stands for the statement: Before there were heroes on Earth, HE rose from the dead for us. The reference to J.C. is brought to life on these beautiful customs with the unique imagery on the fabric. As you can see a central figure is adorned by a crown of roses, and is flanked by two other damned souls. One could easily speculate that the central figure represents J.C. after his death, now wearing a crown of roses rather than thorns. The flanking souls could represent the two men that died alongside J.C. for whom HE asked forgiveness before their passing.
