Nike Air Force 1 Mid ‘Homer Simpson’ Custom

Auch wenn er nur gezeichnet ist, gehört Homer Simpson eindeutig zu den größten TV Ikonen der letzten 20 Jahre. Eine Figur, die uns gezeigt hat, dass in jedem von uns ein kleiner Homer Simpson steckt. Wie könnte man also besser das innere “D´oh!” ausdrücken, also durch ein Paar Homer Simpson Customs. Pimp My Kicks hat sich den Nike Air Force 1 Mid vorgenommen, und ihm einen unverwechselbaren Homer Jay Look verpasst. Die verwendeten Farben repräsentieren alles was wir so gut von Homer kennen. Das Grau steht für seine Schuhe, Blau für die Hose und das Gelb im Zehenbereich steht für die berühmte gelbe Haut, passend ergänzt mit Homers letzten zwei Haaren. Der Bereich um die Schnürung ist Homers Lieblingsdessert gewidmet und entsprechend in Pink gehalten und mit Streuseln verziert. Auf der Ferse findet sich dann schließlich auch Homer selbst – und ja, es ist immer Zeit für einen Doughnut! Detailierte Bilder dieser Customs gibt es wie immer nach dem Jump.

Nike Dunk High “Iron Bot” Customs

This is the latest creation of Australian sneaker customizer Sekure D, the Nike Dunk High “Iron Bot”. Inspired by the man in the iron suit, but with a robotic twist, the sneakers use an Iron Man inspired colorway in Red/Gold and feature the robot arm pattern that Sekure D’s become notorious for using over the years. In addition to the mid-panel being covered with his signature pattern, the robot arms also become noticeable beneath battle wounds, parts of the Red paneling which are made to appear as if part of Iron Bot’s protective outer shell has been torn away. Paying close attention to the shading around the edges of the battle wounds, the effect gives off a trippy 3D look into the inner robotic workings. Follow the jump for more pics of it.

Nike Dunk Low “Incredible Hulk” Customs

Back in June 2009 Nike brought to us the Nike Dunk “Planet Of The Apes” designed by sneaker customizer Chrisco. Little did we know at the time but those were just the kicker to what is known as the Marvel Mash-Up, a collection of custom sneakers inspired by a variety of Marvel Comics. After debuting the first pair we are now pleased to present you Vol. 2 of the Marvel Mash-Up by Chrisco.

For volume 2 Chrisco went with a Nike Dunk Low carrying a theme inspired by none other then Dr. Bruce Banner, also known as the Incredible Hulk. As the story goes Bruce Banner was accidentally exposed to a test detonation of a gamma bomb he invented which has caused him at times, usually when he gets mad, to involuntarily transform into the green, raging giant known as the Hulk. For his Hulk inspired Dunks Chrisco started off with a pair of White on White Low’s and painted the tongue, toe box, mid-panel and ankle panel all Green to match the Hulk’s body color. Purple denim with rugged edges was then fastened around the frontal, heel, and on the lace panels to present the Hulk’s ripped purple pants from the Marvel Comic series. Black felt was then stitched up on the Nike Swoosh and on the heel tab which includes “HULK” in Green embroidery, and a Marvel Comics logo was then worked onto a pair of tongue tags for the sneakers. The upper itself is no doubt a well executed design but what really helps wraps up these customs for me is the sole swap Chrisco did taking the sole unit from a pair of Earthquake Nike Dunks and incorporating it onto the Dunk Low to bring forth the cracked rock/cement pattern that the Incredible Hulk is usually associated with.
