Nike Air Force 1 Playstation Wallpaper
The Nike Air Force 1 Low Playstation sneakers are some of my most favorite Air Force Ones. Sadly though, i was unable to get my hands on a pair, as were many other sneakerheads. Since their official release in 2005 the Playstations are still a very sought after AF1. Many people who own a pair have no intentions of getting rid of them anytime soon. For all of you who love the Playstation Air Force Ones like me and never got your hands on a pair, heres the closet thing we will get, a detailed wallpaper. The image is thanks to Sole Collector, hit the jump to grab a link for the full size image.

Nike Air Force One ‘Gucci-esque’ Customs
Ups-N-Comin’ presents his new custom Nike Air Force Ones which take on a ‘Gucci-esque’ theme. Many of todays top sneaker customizers such as Mache, C2, SBTG, Meth, Paperbag GOODS and more have all done a ‘Gucci-esque’ theme on a pair of customs in the past and Ups-N-Comin’ wanted to add his name to the list with his own spin on a pair of ‘Gucci-esque’ Air Force Ones. So he broke out his patcher and some material and got to work on a base pair of Air Force Ones. The design includes the use of blue denim along the frontal, lace tab and heel panel all of which have white stitching. Lastly an Ups-N-Comin’ keychain tag was added. Im liking the finished look to these with the blue denim, i wouldnt mind having a pair of these for myself. Check out another pic after the jump.
Big Boi - Sir Lucious Leftfoot Air Force Ones
Big Boi, from the legendary hip hop group Outkast collaborated with Nike on a pair of Air Force Ones made exclusively for him. Known as the Sir Lucious Leftfoot AF1, the sneakers are a 1 of 1 which you will only find in the hands of Big Boi himself. I dont think youll be seeing these on ebay anytime soon, and as of right now i dont believe youll find them mass produced, or even produced in limited numbers for the public. Big Boi says in the video that Nike wanted to sell them but he just wanted his own. The design of the sneakers includes a nice mix of white, green, orange and gold to make up a vibrant pair of Air Force Ones that are sure to snap a few necks during concerts and public apperances. Sort of remind me of the ?uestlove Air Questo a little bit. Check out the video of Big Boi showing off the Sir Lucious Leftfoot Air Force Ones above to get a look at them. As Big Boi says in the video, “You Cant Buy These Sneakers”.
edit 8/20: Yes, they are a pair of Nike IDs. However, Nike IDs are custom designed by the buyer, meaning they order a pair of custom Nikes which they exclusively designed.
Nike Air Force One “Decay” Customs
The newest pair of custom sneakers from Sekure D are these Air Force Ones known as Decay. The order was done as a personal project for a good friend of Sekure D who just wanted him to lay down some of his sick graphics on a pair of Air Force Ones. The custom Air Force Ones were completed using a black, white and blue colorway which includes some of Sekure D’s signature graphics. The white and blue abstract design which covers the frontal, lace tab and heel panel is very cool i think. Its takes a handful of talent to put something like that together without it looking like a complete mess on the final sneaker. The purple cartoonish looking decaying objects are another nice touch as well. I wouldnt expect anything else from Sekure D though, as the end results he produces are always top quality.

Nike AF1 ‘Hide Me’ Heat Sensitive Customs
You didnt think i was gonna leave you dry and not show you the 2nd pair of the customs Qustom Queen designed for Memphis Bleek did you? Since Bleek was really feelin the Paradise Nike Dunks he got he wanted another pair ASAP before he and the ROC Fam left the UK. Since celebrity customers are always great to have you gotta come through and always produce, so Qustom Queen put in an all nighter to design a new sneaker for Bleek. The Custom Air Force Ones shown above are known as Hide Me and include a Heat Sensitive design. When the shoe is cold the design appears to be mostly green with a solid green heel panel and a camo design on the mid panels. Once the leather begins to get a little warm and the paint heats they all of a sudden turn to an orange colorway all through with a Qustom Queen logo on the heel panel. The concept on these shoes with the heat sensitive design is pretty. Id personally wouldnt mind seeing more use of designs using the heat sensitive technique. Check out picture of what they look like when they are warm and a shot of Memphis Bleek and Qustom Queen.
