This pair of custom Pumas didnt really start out with a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle theme in mind at first. Customizer Briezrs started out with a pair of Pumas with no idea really, he laid down the green and black pattern, and then cover the Puma formstripes in red. Behind those fatty laces the tongue is covered in a red and white checkered pattern to match the Puma logo on the back of the sneaker. However, this is not something Briezers himself made. The sneakers came with the red and white checkered pattern on the inside on the tongue, Briezers just cut the tongue open, stuffed it up a bit and then turned it around so the design would display on the top. After the paint dried and he took a look at these custom sneakers he decided they reminded him of Raphael from the TMNJ. The green and black design sort of looks like a turtle shell and Raphael was the turtle who wore red, so the formstripes go along with the color Raphael was known to wear. I gotta admit, the green/black/green colorway is pretty nice with that white sole. To check out more work by Briezrs or to just hit him up with your questions/comments visit his website here.
