Two shoe customizers emmanueLabor and Qustom Queen, living roughly 4,700 miles apart between Seattle, Washington and Glasgow, United Kingdom worked together for a 1 of 1 Zartan from G.I. Joe themed custom Nike Dunk. Each shoe customizer brought to the project their specialty: Qustom Queen color her changing paint and emmanueLabor his decon-recon skills. The toes change color after being exposed to heat from a military green to human flesh a la Zartan’s special ability. The rest of the shoe is made up of a very G.I. Joe like ballistic mesh, black suede, purple changing chroma material, black suede, and red contrast stitching. If you have no idea who Zartan is you’ll have to watch the classic commercial below about the color changing chameleon like villain character from G.I. Joe. Also take a look at emmanueLabor’s video for some insight into his future customs and a clear vinyl Nike Air Jordan 1 custom he created. Set your calendars for September 6th……emmanueLabor Day.
