Golden state AJ1. I love Whenever there’s a “exotic” color outer sole on the base shoes I customize. In this case it’s the yellow on these brotherhood AJ1.

Being a customizer for soo many years I can remember a time when Nike would nevvver release any colors other than red, black, white and maybe blue on any shoes. Especially AF1. that was almost exclusively for GS. I also remember a lot of customizers trying to find was to paint then only to have the paint chip away eventually. Some may have found ways to make it last longer 🙋🏾‍♂️ but at the end of the day you can’t paint rubber with acrylic.

Right around the time we started figuring out working with dyes that had some success, Nike started going ham with the colorways.

I like to think that it was a response to our knowledge that was growing and them wanting to complete with the advances customizing was making. I also like to think I was a part of that. So y’all welcome for all the multi color variations of midsoles and outsoles. So yea, a little caption for this simple yet dimple. That’s all.

Lil bit of this, lil bit of that.

So I made this LV beach bum bag out of a LV neverfull bag and I have to say that I’m pretty happy with the results. It took much trial and tribulations, especially on the zipper cover, but the project got done. This was my first one so I know that my next will be better and made in a lot less time but good experience overall. Thanks to for the opportunity and trust to do the project for her. Till the next one.
