Want a custom Nike themed after a musical artist? Ask Jake of JBF Customs. Remember his Curren$y Jet Life Nike Blazer? How could he top that pair? Simplicity. First seen in a performance of “Billie Jean” in 1983 on NBC’s Motown 25, Michael Jackson’s white glove is one of musics most iconic fashion statements if not number one. Jackson’s glove has had several versions: sequins, lights, crystals, different colors and more, but all “flashy.” Of course alone it may not have had such an impact, MJ’s moonwalk also seen by him first in that same performance and overall talent gave the glove life. Now throw in the visual aesthetics and handy work of JBF Customs using “MJ’s Glove” as his theme and you have one slick pair of kicks. As usual for JBF these days this pair is a complete decon-recon custom Nike Blazer. The main materials of choice were a quite spot on silver sequined fabrics, each of which has had its edges tucked for that premium touch. White on the Swooshes and a metallic blackish silver on the majority of the upper. A very “MJ” choice of white and black was used for the lining, soles, suede lace panels, and laces. There has been plenty of Micheal Jackson custom shoes (especially after his passing) but these 1 of 1’s could be the top of the charts. What do you think?
