Adidas Superstar 2 ‘Royal Flush’ Customs
A short while back Sole Brother held their first Ultimate Sneaker contest which allowed viewers to submit descriptions of their perfect custom sneakers in the hopes of having their ideas turned into reality. When the contest came to an end and all the entries were received, Marc Lee from Malaysia was announced the winner with his idea that Sole Brother dubbed ‘Royal Flush’. Sole Brother did a wonderful job in fulfilling the description Marc had written up about his idea. Below is Marcs actual description of his Ultimate Sneaker.
“My ultimate sneaker would be a white Adidas Superstar 2 shoe with:
a deck of normal bicycle card design (Only the royal cards Ace King Queen Jack). all over the shoe with some face down, showing the back of the card. Since the common decks are blue and red, the left shoe can have the red deck (red 3 stripes) and the right shoe can have the blue deck (blue 3 stripes)”
Needless to say Marc was more then happy to win the contest and get his very own pair of custom sneakers for free. More pictures of the final design created by Sole Brother follows after the jump.

Adidas ‘Silver Surfer’ Custom Sneakers
Got any Silver Surfer fans out there? TooNice from TN Customs did these custom Adidas inspired by the very popular classic comic book character for a friend of his on an old pair of beaters. Across the side panel on the right sneaker TooNice included the Silver Silver font design floating in space just like it was on the front of many of the old comic books from years ago. On the left sneaker the Silver Surfer himself is shown on his board. The shading and styling used to design the Silver Surfer is pretty fresh and gives you that vibe that hes in a forward motion in route to attack. This would make a nice pair to add to the collection for any Silver Surfer fan out there and im sure the friend of TN Customs was more then happy with the outcome. Check out more detailed pictures after the jump.

Adidas Superstar: A Tribe Called Quest Customs
If you ask me A Tribe Called Quest goes on my list of one of the top hip-hop groups of all time. Many hip-hop heads can agree to that and one who does and even went to lengths to customize a sneaker inspired by the legendary group is artist/designer Desp One. These custom Adidas Superstars feature the colorful design on the upper which you would find painted onto the person who was on the front of the Tribe Called Quest album covers. The liner and sole are solid green while the Adidas logo and lace tab have a yellow outline to them, which takes after the yellow outline around the person on the Tribe Called Quest album covers. I think the concept is great, specially being a Tribe Called Quest fan for many years. Desp One even threw on a pair of shiny Adidas lace locks to finish them up. Check out Desp One’s website here and check out some more pictures of these fresh custom Adidas Superstars after the jump.
Adidas Stan Smith: Birthday Custom
Briezrs stopped by the forum to show us his newest pair of customs. These Adidas Stan Smith customs he made for himself in honor of his 21st Birthday. A gift to himself for all the hard work hes done to get where he is today and a custom piece for himself to memory his journey by. Nothing crazy or outrageous was done here, just a clean simple design. On the back heel of the sneakers theres Chinese lettering which says May on the left and Seventeen on the right for May 17th, his birthday obviously, which happens to be tomorrow. HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY BRIEZRS!! Check out more shots after the jump.
Adidas Superstar II: The New Yorkers
Sole Brother Customs introduces a new custom Adidas Superstar II which is dedicated to all the New Yorkers out there, like myself. Nothing flashy was done here with bright colors and fancy designs, Sole Brother Customs went with just a design on the heel of each shoe to salute New York. The Statue of Liberty stands tall with the Brooklyn Bridge in the background on the outside of each shoe and on the inside you have a shot of the city along with a boombox (you know NY is where it started) and a red apple which says “The Big Apple” on it. If your a NY native something like these would be just the thing for you. Sole Brother Customs can do whatever city you rep so get at him with all your questions and check out more shots after the jump.
‘Eye on Seattle’ Adidas by ATC
ATC (Above The Clouds) designed these custom Adidas Shell Toes for a camera lady who did a piece on them which aired on a Seattle news station some time ago. Costs on these were to be kept somewhat low so the idea was kept simple with a nice design of the city of Seattle across the side with a deep gray. On the other side of the Adidas Shell Toes you have the words “Above The Clouds” on one and “Eye On Seattle” on the other, which are both done in a light blue. The design on the lace tabs outlined in blue are a nice touch as well, adds a little something more then just the cityscape design to finish them up. The customs are basic and maybe not outrageous like previous work your use to seeing but for somebody reppin their hometown of Seattle these are more then enough to put a smile on their face, and the job is done clean.
