  • Kasper da Ghost Air Force Ones
    By on October 16th, 2008 | No Comments Comments

    Sol Sircuz created a pair of Nike Air Force Ones with a ghost theme just in time for Halloween. His client was named Kasper which led the designer to apply a “Casper the Friendly Ghost” theme along with some Halloween colors. While these customs were one-of-a-kind, you can contact Sol Sircuz at [email protected] or check out his MySpace page linked here if you want to make your own customs.

    Sol Sircuz drew “Kasper” on the left toe box as a balling ghost complete with wrist bands and a basketball. He wrote out “Kasper da Ghost” along the heel with a mixture of orange, white and blue paint. The tongues feature vague impressions using gray, blue and orange that really caught my eye.

    My favorite part of these Air Force Ones was the small details and accents added after the design was complete. In particular, the blue outline of the gray swoosh makes it stand out from the muted Halloween View More Photos/Info

  • Major Air Force Ones
    By on October 15th, 2008 | No Comments Comments

    I have been talking about simple but effective sneakers over the last few weeks including a pair of customs from High Off Life Kicks. The designer’s latest pair of Air Force Ones does a 180-degree turn on the simple aesthetic of his past customs. The Major Air Force Ones were found at the High Off Life Kicks Customsnkr.com blog linked here.

    High Off Life Kicks went a bit overboard when creating the Major Air Force Ones. He started out with a basic black panel along the back with a set of messy white stripes that were endearing. As I looked at the rest of the shoe, I wasn’t sure what message High Off Life Kicks was trying to send.

    The toe box has a white/gray/black camo design that is rendered effectively. The eyelets and swoosh are coated in a black polka dot pattern set against a light gray background. The heel tag and front panel features an interesting View More Photos/Info
