Nike’s 21 Mercer has churned out yet another pair of clean and inspired AF1s, as seen here in these Air Yeezy-inspired kicks.
Customer and designer Adam Sofa drew inspiration from one of 2009’s biggest releases and chose to design his own shoe around them. Using a mix of patent leather and suede, these are a great tribute sneaker. The lining and stitching are all pink, while the grey toe helps break up the black on the rest of the design. It seems like the only thing missing is the glow-in-the-dark outsole. Adam says the Yeezy is one of his favorites, as he is a native to Illinois, just like Kanye. Interestingly enough, these shoes were designed completely remote, as Adam used iChat to work with Nike’s team, eliminating the need to travel all the way to New York. These AF1’s have a great story behind them, and are a very well thought out tribute to one of the biggest sneaker releases ever. Do these Bespokes do it for you, or would you rather keep your Yeezys and your Forces separate? |
