Champate posted his latest work, the Jekyll and Hide Collection, at the Nike Talk thread linked here. The designer used the tormented nature of Dr. Jekyll and his alter ego, Mr. Hyde, to create diametrically opposed custom sneakers. You can check out individual photos of each custom after the post.
Champate was particularly proud of the fact that both custom Dunks used in this collection were reconstruction projects. The Dr. Jekyll Nike Dunks feature purple shoe laces, black toes and wraps as well as beautiful blue/white imagery on the middle panels. The Mr. Hyde Nike Dunks have white toes and collars, red middle panels and a chain link fence design on the heel wrap.
The Jekyll and Hyde Collection benefits greatly from Champate’s dedication to detail. The Dr. Jekyll Dunks feature black denim sown to the Nike swooshes and toes to add a different dimension to these customs. The chain link fences on the Mr. Hyde Dunks are rendered perfectly by the steady hands of Champate. Champate rebuilt a duo of Nike Dunks that cannot be separated and critiqued individually without losing the larger theme.
