Air Jordan XI Retro “Oreo” Customs by Rameses

Posted on May 22, 2013 by Jumpmankicks

With the renewed Oreo hype thanks to the upcoming new Air Jordan IV colorway, custom kicks maker Rameses has chose the perfect time to create this Oreo-themed Air Jordan XI. This pair has been almost completely blacked out, contrasted only by a white tongue logo. The once-white midsole has been painted black and overlaid with white speckles. The end result is a very stealthy design that looks as if it rolled off the factory. Hopefully this will give someone at Jordan Brand the idea to apply the Oreo theme to more classic Air Jordan models. You can see more hot customs from Rameses here.

Nike Air Max 1 “Don’t Fuck with Texas” Customs

Posted on May 18, 2013 by Jumpmankicks

I normally try to keep this site PG, but having seen these Air Max 1 customs from Dank and and being a current resident of Texas, all rules have been thrown out the window. This Air Max 1 gives tribute to the “Lone Star State”, featuring Elephant Print across the top of the upper, with black, red and white accents. A bright blue and black sole keeps the theme going, but what really helps this sneaker to stand out is the modified Texas motto on the tongue that reads, “Don’t Fuck with Texas”. The insoles have also received a Texas print which depicts many of the icons which make the state great. This one-off custom definitely gets the message across that Texas is not to be fucked with.
