The Nike All Court “Hispanic Heritage Month” is a shoe that commemorates the Hispanic Heritage Month. Kiki McGehee, from Nike, created this sneaker from a Nike High Court model. This design is based on a technique called the piteado. This is a popular technique used on leather boost and belts in Latin America. The word “Pride” is included on the shoe to show the lifestyle of the Hispanics, while embracing their culture, living in the U.S. The word is made using a special font. The flower pattern shows the freedom of expression.The colors used recreate the floral representation of a natural scene.
The toe box and tongue are black and the white shoe lace is a strong contrast against the dark background. The midsole around the toe cap has a protective white cap.The midsection has a swirling pattern in orange color. The concentric pattern has a calm, cooling effect. View More Photos/Info
JBF’s latest customs feature simple arrows and basic colors that work well together in creating a great pair of sneakers. The designer showed the Misguided Dunk Highs in his most recent post on Nike Talk linked
The Misguided Dunk Highs began with blue and gray hues that split the shoe in half. While these colors may induce some sighs from sneaker fans who love color, JBF added a salmon color to the swoosh for a burst of visual excitement.
The compelling element of the Misguided Dunk Highs is the cluster of white arrows blossoming from the heel. Each arrow is pointing in a different direction to simulate the confusing decisions we all have to make on a daily basis. JBF turned the straight edges and angles of traditional arrows on their head by using arrows with exaggerated bases contorted in all directions.
