LeBron James, who turned 25 on December 30 was given a custom of his own signature shoe which was designed by 1OF Customs.  The shoe is meant to match an actual Craps table, dont know where they got that idea from. The shoes features a white base upper with green around the shoe. The tongues read “84″, the year LeBron was born, and two dices are seen on the shoes to represent James jersey number, 23. The shoe is finished with a green/white outsole. LeBron probably had one of his best birthdays with him getting this outstanding sneaker as a gift

Customize me: Nike x Yoa Customs Edward Scissorhands

I personally thought this was brilliant! I have long been a fan of Tim Burton and Johnny Depp’s collaborations and seeing these just blew me away. Amazing!

I found this customized pair over at YoaKustoms. Obviously, the artist was inspired by the film and therefore went to incorporate these in his sneakers.  Edward Scissorhands’ portrait looked striking but disturbing as well. Anyone familiar with the movie would say there is an eerie accuracy here that is brilliant but at the same time disconcerting because of the deep scars that resulted from Edward’s own disability. The tongue tag features a yellow butterfly which was an ubiquitous element in the movie posters.
