    This Nike Terminator Hi snakeskin is sold at Atmos. It costs 17,000 Yen to buy 1 pair.

    This shoe has a blue colorway and is almost completely covered in snakeskin. The toe box is in snakeskin. It is framed by a mudguard in light blue leather.The same colored leather is used in the shoe lace region. The lace is also in light blue and this makes the panel look good as the uniform color is continued.

    The main body of the shoe upper is in snakeskin that has been dyed blue and black. The Nike swoosh and the back tab are in light blue color. At the bottom of the heel, the brand name, Nike, has been allocated in a stenciled design into the snakeskin. The letters are dyed white. The quality of the snakeskin can be seen to be excellent. The metallic blue and black color is outstanding.

    The midsole is white and the outsole is light blue. The standard use and rotation of the colors in this shoe maintains a smooth, sleek look for the sneaker.

    The tongue is in light blue leather and the tip has a matching light blue tab with the brand name in dark blue. I’ll love to own a pair of these hot shoes. I think they look great for casual and night wear.

    Converse Fast Break 2

    If you are a fan of old school kicks like the Converse Fast Break, you will love this new colorway that is about to drop.

    The Converse Fast Break was a popular basketball shoe in the 80’s, particularly for point guards. In July, they’ll be releasing a variety of makeups that are actually very affordable. This red, white and black model has old school appeal and a little modern appeal. You can get these for only $70 at Converse.com. Via Complex.

  • Lucky Air Force Ones
    By on July 1st, 2008 | No Comments Comments

    These Nike Air Force Ones were posted to the C2 Customs website recently. Chris Hui was hired by his barber Lucky to produce a pair of high-quality customs. Hui responded with a pair of custom Air Force Ones dubbed “Lucky” that honor his barber.

    Lucky asked for a pair of sneakers that looked like they had just traversed puddles of blood. Hui’s custom sneakers take this initial suggestion to a whole new level. The saturation of red paint on the toe box trails off rapidly as the viewer’s eye drifts back to the Nike swoosh. There are spots of red paint underneath the laces and beneath the swoosh to create the splatter effect.

    The “Lucky” Air Force Ones are well-crafted but I am not sure I would want to go to a barber with a pair of bloodied sneakers. I am a big fan of the font and size used for “Lucky” on the back heel. It stands out from the white heel panel and provides a nice counterpoint to the bloody toe box. C2 Customs can be contacted through the website linked above for readers that want their own pairs of custom kicks.
