It's so cool to see this video. I was fortunate to be able to get a couple pairs of customs done by him back in 2013. I still have them and cherish them to this day. .

Exactly. You can lose your pocket change, or a nice pen. You don't misplace those shoes!

Back in the mid 90's a kid at my schools used to add nike swooshes to his Jordan's. I had no idea how far ahead of the curve he was when it came to customizing.

They’re just shoes bro, chill. Things made by the thousands everyday, but somehow you’re special. Only the kids in the comment section are amazed, adults don’t care.

[@jaycee9490]

theres deffinetly an argument that hes creating art but i can understand you might not like the art hes creating

[@sophisticatedbeaver3569]

"Adults don't care"
You did care by commenting..kiddo

[@JayBee0212]

Well, if some people like it, the creativity or whatever, great. Personally I think this is the ugliest waste of money I've ever seen. Dude be making 2 million dollar eye sores while people starve. Capitalism, fashion, stardom etc at its worst
