An artist going by the name Big Jugg Shawty showed off the Aqua Boogie Air Force Ones at the Nike Talk post linked here. Big Jugg Shawty is a first-timer in the sneaker art game but the Aqua Boogies look pretty solid. As I have mentioned in the past, the hallmark of a good sneaker artist is the ability to make simple designs look great.

Big Jugg Shawty focused on creating a clean and simple custom with a few bits of color on these sneakers. The heel tag has a neon green hue that works well with the aqua blue used on the rest of the shoe. Big Jugg Shawty applied aqua blue paint to the back panel, toe and eyelet on each shoe. The aqua blue plays off the white middle panel and Nike swoosh left untouched by the designer.

These custom kicks look great for a first-time designer. Big Jugg Shawty did not try to overreach in terms of design but still showed some skill on these AF1s. I hope that this novice designer keeps on creating and challenging boundaries because we need all the good sneaker artists we can get.

This women’s Nike Blazer Mid Premium is now available at Nikestore.com for $100. Utilizing a unique woven pattern on most of the upper, this shoe is a nice break from the standard women’s Nike release. With an old school look combined with interesting details, these Blazers could be a hot item.

The color scheme on these kicks is Obsidian/Slate-Gmee Light Brown-Varsity Crimson. The stark Nike swoosh lays upon the woven tweed-like fabric, while the thick white laces also offer a good deal of contrast agains the rest of the shoe. The crimson is used sparingly – on the tongue tag, heel logo font and bottom sole. Via Sneaker News.
