    By on January 29th, 2009 | No Comments Comments

    The Nike Air Huarache Light Burst is a hybrid shoe. It combines the streamline comfortable fit of the Nike Huarache system with Nike Air Max. This Nike Air Max uses the Air Burst midsole and outsole. The colors and materials have drawn inspiration from the Air Jordan 11. There is no information yet on the price or drop date.

    Nike used a black mesh upper and patent leather upper. The body of the shoe is in mesh while the supporting mudguard and frames are in leather. The mesh material is dense to provide strength and flexibility of movement. The small, red Nike swoosh at the back of the shoe draws attention to this red accent. The thick white midsole has fine etchings for details. The heel shows the transparent window where one can peep into the treads of the outsole.

    The inner lining and insole of the shoe is black. This blends in with the all black shoe upper. The insole has a pixilated photo of MJ. The image is done with shades of red colors. This shows Nike has used MJ as an inspiration for the design of this pair of sneakers. (Images)

  • Splatter Air Force Ones
    By on January 29th, 2009 | No Comments Comments

    KickerBockerGlory has been on a roll lately with a series of custom Nikes that cannot be beat. The Splatter Air Force Ones come in a size 10 UK and are available from the designer’s website linked here. The vibrant and colorful design is something we are accustomed to with KickerBockerGlory but he has raised the bar a bit higher with these customs.

    The entire upper is covered in turquoise and orange dots that look like they were applied from a distance. Instead of looking like an unmitigated mess, the Splatter Air Force Ones ended up as a colorful stroke of genius. The Nike symbol on the midsole and the swoosh is a bright green hue that stands apart from the more subdued splatter spots.

    KickerBockerGlory created a matching T-shirt that is available when purchasing the Splatter Air Force Ones. You can check out the website linked above to find shipping rates and other information on this great example of sneaker art.
