The Dark Knight may have released months ago, but that didn’t stop Mache from whipping up these unbelievable custom sneakers based on “The Joker”. Mache used a simple but effective “One Night Only” AF1 color blocking system, with him coloring the toe purple pinstriped to resemble moving fabric like the Joker’s pants in the movie and leaving the rest of the upper (besides the artwork) off-white. The sneaker features a wonderful picture of Heath Ledger portrayal of the Joker along the right shoe, with the quote “Why so serious?”, and the “Joker’s Card” (which is exactly like the one in the movie) with ‘Here’s My Card” spelled out on the heel of the left shoe. The tags, lace locks and heel tabs are all painted in the same green hue like the Joker’s hair. See more pictures after the jump.

Soleheaven and Sneakart recently collaborated on two pairs of custom sneakers which features Sneakart’s revolutionary method of customizing shoes. Sneakart’s customizing technique consists of applying adhesive stickers (PVC free), baptized “sneakskin”, to the overall area of the shoes to create designs. This is great for people who always wanted to customize sneakers but lacked painting skills. In the creation of these customs, Sneakart took a Nike Vandal – Sheath and a soild white Onitsuka Tiger and applied some sneakskin (adhesive stickers) which resembles magazine clippings along the the side panels and toe. Sneakart also provided Soleheaven with an exclusive interview which you can checkout HERE. See more pictures after the jump.

![Nike [Superstar] Dunk Hi Custom Light Up (Lupe Fiasco Inspired)](http://www.simplysneakers.com/wp-content/gallery/6/nike-superstar-dunk-hi-custom-sneaker-1.jpg "Nike [Superstar] Dunk Hi Custom Light Up (Lupe Fiasco Inspired)")
Evolved Footwear just finished their newest pair of custom sneakers that they’re calling, the Nike “Superstar” Dunk Hi. This sneaker features an overall concept inspired by the well known hip hop artist, Lupe Fiasco and his hit summer music video, Superstar. The sneaker embodies several key elements taken from the music video, including a clean blue colorway decked out with confetti designs and smoke patterns along the toe and lace holes, and a cool “red carpet” tongue. But, the highlight of the sneaker has to be the light up ability that really sets this sneaker apart from all the rest. See more pictures and a video of the sneakers after the jump.
