Hello everyone….been a long time…way too long. Here’s what I got.

These are some kicks I did for a customer in the Chi. He’s rocking them to the World Cup. I fell in love with these while making them. I hope you like them.

Thanks to all who preordered and were patient with this proccess…I can’t thank you enough for the support!!! Not every artist has a book and not every artist has sold his work…so thank you for letting me be one of the fortunate artists that has done both! Enough of my blabbering…here’s some pics: Special thanks to my family, friends, Mike Long (Transit Creative) and Just Diamonds (Jewler) for the Gold Piece! Bling Bloow!

FC3 Dunk Hi’s

These are customs I made for Frank Cooper the 3rd.

Who is this guy you ask? lol

He is VP of Sparkling Beverages at Pepsi and Mountain Dew.

I used Pepsi Blue and Mountain Dew Greens with some black for contrast and also a monotone portrait of the man himself.

The Bubbles serve as a reminder of effervescence.

I also made a custom FC3 logo painted on the Heel, sewed on the tongue and custom insoles with the FC3 in repetition.

Custom box to make sure that they are official.

Comments welcome.

Obama Etched AF1 by SOLE JUNKIE

solejunkie — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 16:01:01 +0000

OK folks…been trying some new things out for a minute…finally built up some courage to experiment on some brand new all whites!

Here is my version of Etched shoes. Hand etched…no Laser Machine!!!

I kinda like some of the rough areas.

Obama Etched Nike AF1.

I tried to stick with a simple image.

I put these images together with his logo to get the total package.

I hope I was successful….feedback welcome.

Peace. Love. SOLE!

Here is a quick video of me trying to remake the famous FUKIJAMA kicks on Entourage.

I’m so tired of hearing about them…that I decided to take on the challenge of remaking them by hand.

This will not show the kicks…it just shows me during the testing phase.

Comments welcome!

Last nights show.

Went to Sony & FlowTV Present’s- Hip Hop Live! 2008 last night and had a great tiime!

If you live in Diego….and you slept on this one….shame on you!!

My Boy Dave NY and Kweli blessed me again.

Nuff respect to both of yall.

So it was a jammed packed house….including:

Rhythm Roots All-stars out of LA…they were the house band last night…and damn if they didn’t play their asses off!!!! They did every beat to every song for every artist and they opened up with some old school break beats! Yo…for the real hip hop heads…this was a treat to hear percussion and horns live! \

Then Little Brother Steps up to rip the stage and man….gotta say…these cats do they thing!

Shout out to Big Pooh and Phonte! Mad humble cats!

Next up to bat is Mr. M I S S I S S I P P I….none other than…David Banner.

Yo talk about energy…this cat performed his show in the crowd! On a bar stool and standing on tables n shit.

Running up and down steps! I was like this Muthasuka is CRAZY! I respect that out of this guy and am now a new fan!

He was intense and the man made me tired watching his performance.

Then Kweli is the anchor leg….and as usual…gives an awesome performance.

The dude has like 6 lungs…his breathe control alone is amazing…I tried to keep up with a few of his lyrics and got dizzy!

Did I mention that the band new every tune, beat, riff…etc….? WOW

Then Kweli brings out Strong Arm Steady, Planet Asia and Main Flow. Again Wow!

So I gots to chill with all these cats…and must say…they mad cool.

Especially one of the chillest spectators…Aftermath prodigy himself…Bishop Lamont!

Again…if you live in Diego…and you slept…shame on you!

If you don’t support hip hop …how you expect to get this place on the map so your favorite artist actually visits? (I’ll save that for another rant)

Shout out to Bishop for treating me like fam.

Ok…I’m tired….peace……..
