Nike Air Force 1 Mid - Freddy Kruger Customs
I am sure the Freddy Kruger ‘Nightmare On Elm Street’ movies are something all of you are familiar with. Im sure you even remember seeing the sample Nike SB Freddy Kruger Dunks thats surfaced online awhile ago and then got scrapped. Well, designer THIRST has pretty much just sh*%3D on the original concept by Nike with his design of the Freddy Kruger Air Force 1 custom sneakers shown above. The detail in these is amazing and most defiantly goes on my list of the best custom sneakers. THIRST started by covering the mid-panels with a stripe design representing the signature Freddy Kruger sweater design, then added a design on the toe box to resemble the the burnt/scared skin of Freddy himself. Along the frontal and heel tab theres a nice detailed wood design with a few nails on the back of the left sneaker which resembles the basement where Freddy had a secret stash of his torture devices, newspaper clippings. On the strapes and heel panel theres random blood splatter all throughout and the Nike Swoosh on the sneakers were done to resemble one of the claws from Freddys gloves. Before putting the paints away and calling it a day Thrist took things 1 step further and designed some very cool looking Nightmare on Thirst St. custom tags for the tongue.

Nike Air Force One ‘Joker’ - Mache Customs
Since the release of The Dark Knight we have seen quite a few Batman/Joker inspired custom sneakers such as the Joker Nike Dunks created by Bespoke Sneaker Gallery, the Joker Chuck Taylors created by Sweatshop Clothing, the Dark Knight Vans Skate Hi created by Twitch and the list goes on. Here we have yet another pair of Joker custom sneakers, this time designed by the Mache. Mache used a Nike Air Force One as a base with a combo of colors and clean graphics to create an amazing design. The toe box on both sneakers was done in a 3D looking purple and black pinstripe design to resemble the pants which The Joker wore during the Batman movies and TV shows. The right sneaker includes a picture of Heath Ledger as The Joker while the left sneaker carrys the design of The Joker card with the famous quote “Why So Serious” on the heel. Throughout the rest of the sneaker you have accents of green to repersent the Jokers hair and red to protray the red face paint around his lips. Mache always dose some incredible work and these Air Force Ones are nothing short of that. Check out some more shots after the jump.

Nike Air Force One ‘Paris x Dunkle’ Customs
Mache created these Nike Air Force One custom sneakers for ISS member KVN. Mache had done a custom pair of Nike Dunks in the past with a design that included a combination inspired by the Dunkle Dunks and Paris Dunks. Seeing the design and quality Mache had put into the sneakers KVN was convinced he had to have is own pair, just on a pair of Air Force Ones instead. I am always amazed by the work of Mache, you can really sense the love and dedication put into every single pair he does. The designs and color fades are always spot on. Check out more shots of the sneakers from different angles after the jump.
