Dear Insa,
stick to krylon, you are alot better at it.
Many moons ago, niketalk held a customs contest. there were some other decent kicks in it, like a NB Safari clone. the best custom in the contest was by an uknown artist.
It just shows that you can come from out of leftfield to dominate the game.
if anyone has pics from that contest, please send me them.there was never a winner sadly.
pics from freshnessmag
Bohdus from ISS sent me in his customs.
i like these shoes, the zoo york pattern is nice and brings out the colors from the base shoe.
I enjoy hi’s, i always like “ghosts” but they always seemed too basic.
Sandy should take some cues from this guy.
Speaking of cues, e-cues are one of my fav shoe.
id like to see somebody customize a pair.
Dubzeros are a cool idea, Jordan Brand executed it fairly well.
now, lets say you didnt like some part of the shoe and wanted to add a piece from a different jordan.
basically its not goin to happen. the glue, the busted exacto blades. a nightmare.
Ghettro from the UK went the old school route.
he tracked down an authentic vintage sewing machine that shoe cobblers used in the reparation of shoes.
Grabbed a pair of beats IVs and a pair of dunks and labored these beauties we see now.
check the tongue, pure fantasy come true.
each piece you see is sewn to this baby.
this is taking things to a new level.
I took my baby
On a saturday bang
Boy is that girl with you
Yes we’re one and the same
Now I believe in miracles
And a miracle
Has happened tonight
But, if
You’re thinkin’
About my baby
It don’t matter if you’re
Black or white
do yourself a favor and click to enlargo these pics.
detail is bonkers.
i wouldnt rock these
i would display these under a glass dome that is spinning on a record player.
if i had half that talent, id probably have a better blog.
hulk terminators, probably the best character ive seen on a shoe period.
i like the smashed swoosh, color scheme.
greatest box since Jenna Jamison.
dear sbtg,
im goin to steal your idea for my own feet.
i like this gucci colorway better than the stan smiths ive seen.
yeah sick, black X pink is ill.
im a sucker for this colorway.
