JBF Customs Shares a Look at his Very First Original Sneaker

words // Gregory Williams:

Having made his name by creating luxurious custom bodies of work, Jacob Ferrato aka JBF Customs is looking to leave his mark in a way that is truly all his own. Posting a preview via IG, Ferrato shared a look at his very first original silhouette. Utilizing premium leather detailing about its upper, an imported Italian outsole takes the model’s stylish vibes up quite a few notches. Showing that he has a whole lot more to offer than just reimagined Python Air Jordans, you can catch another look at JBF’s first original sneaker after the jump. Sound off with your thoughts in the comments section below and be sure to keep it locked to Nice Kicks for more.

I sketched this shoe, and then created it… Original silhouettes have been my ultimate goal for years, and my skills are finally catching up to my ambition. I’ve been relatively quiet lately because I’ve been working so hard on this project. Shown is the first pair, so they aren’t perfect. And, quite frankly, are made from shitty scrap leather I had laying around. But you see the potential. #Progress #NoBaseShoeNecessary #INCOMPARABLE
