The latest shoes by Sideview Customs featured a theme that can only be seen as a volcano erupts. The Lava Air Force Ones were featured on the NikeTalk post linked here. Sideview Customs did justice to the lava theme with fantastic detail work and colors that pop off the sneaker.

The red/orange colorway is a nod to the familiar image of flowing lava from nature shows and cartoons alike. Sideview added red veins to stand out from the orange background and create the appearance of motion from the heel to the toe. The designer’s commitment to this colorway is seen in the orange outsole and Nike symbol on the heel.

On the front view of the sneakers below, you can see the Sideview Customs name scrawled out in orange underneath the laces. This little touch may blend into the background but I can appreciate the designer’s effort to brand his work. The Lava Air Force Ones took awhile to create but the work was worthwhile in my opinion.

Japanese retailer Beauty & Youth has hooked up with Mizuno to create these Col Stitch sneakers. Featuring a black leather upper, these shoes are highlighted by their colorful stitching and eyelets.

This Nike SB is a collaboration with Fly and Triumvir. Fly is a skate store in China and Triumvir belongs to the company called Cali. Fly and Cali chose to work on the “Beijing” Dunk Mid. Nike SB was the third arm in this project involving all three companies.

The shoe took inspiration from Beijing’s favourite landmarks and icons like the Tienanmen Square, dust, traffic, highways and noodles. This Dunk Mid is the first Nike shoe to be named after Beijing. The grey tones were meant to reflect Beijing’s high towers and highways. The black midsection uses special premium tumbled leather.

The toe box is black and has small perforations. The surrounding mudguard is white and has double stitching for its details. The white shoe lace coordinates with the white mudguard. The shoe lace holes are on a border of patterned leather. The shoe has a black collar and a thin red border around the ankle. The heel segment is made of the grey patterned leather and extends upwards to give a shoe strap. This strap has the Nike SB logo at its tip. The Nike swoosh is black and outlined in orange. The midsole is grey while the outsole is black. This is a good looking shoe to woo the Beijing market for Nike.

Gravis makes some noise with four new colorways of the Gravis Viking model – two high and two low.

For the low editions, Gravis offers a brown leather and suede upper with orange and blue details, and a more subtle colorway in all black. The lows are priced at $74.99, while the high tops are $89.99 at CSS. Via Sneaker News.

Ripp’s top customer Day asked the designer to create a pair of custom sneakers with a basketball theme. Rather than produce a tired pair of AF1s in basketball orange and black, Ripp looked at the entire basketball court as his inspiration. The result is the B-Ball Court Air Force Ones as pictured after this post.

Ripp started by creating a hardwood floor effect on the toe box and the Nike swoosh. He painted white net lines set against the brown background to simulate the ball going through the hoop. In a nod to the rock, Ripp drew a black-lined basketball on the heel as if it were laying on the basketball court waiting for the next game.

The B-Ball Court Air Force Ones took about three weeks complete only because Ripp was busy balancing his other projects. I like the fact that the designer was willing to celebrate the basketball environment instead of a single team or part of the game.
