Nike TTK Tech Challenge Customs

Nike TTK Tech Challenge CustomsVenturing away from the usual canvas of choice (Nike Dunk Hi), TTK decided to customize a pair of his favorite OG sneakers from back in the day, the Nike Air Tech Changelle. TTK incorporated an array of different details with pink and white specks along the side panels and toe-box,  cracked black lines zig-zagging across the sides, cement designs wrapping around the front, and yellow / teal accents throughout the entire shoe. TTK topped off the custom sneaker with a pair of grey/pink laces and some golden TTK lacelocks. This sneaker will be available for sale at Solefood NYC in New York, NY this week. They’re a size 6 (Boys). See detailed pictures after the jump.

Nike [Barack Obama] Blazer High Customs

Nike [Barack Obama] Blazer High CustomsObamamania has caused TTK to spring into action and create this “Barack Obama” Blazer High custom sneaker as a result of the overwhelming number of Obama supporters that enjoyed his first design, the Nike [Barack Obama] Custom Dunk. The sneaker showcases a clean black base with blue accents along the sides, a white midsole, and a blue tongue. But, the center piece of the custom are the wonder self portraits of Barack Obama drawn on the side panels with the words “Obama ‘08″ one on shoe and “Change” on the other. There’s also white and blue bubble details surrounding the portraits, golden TTK lacelocks, and a pair of fat black laces.  See detailed pictures after the jump.

Nike [Venomous Denimous] Dunk High Customs

Nike [Venomous Denimous] Dunk High CustomsWould you believe that this Nike Dunk was once battered, beaten up, and headed for the nearest garbage can? If so, then your correct! But, thanks to the excellent skills of ILLEGO they were given a second shoe-life. These custom sneakers feature a navy denim upper with sky blue stitching and some interesting pearl-esque snakeskin material on the toe and side panels. There’s even some cool stash pockets on the back heel and purple designs on the inner lining of the tongue and insoles. ILLEGO topped them off with some silver lacelocks as well as blue and white laces. I’m sorry to say but these kicks were a pair of beaters that ILLEGO’s cousin (female) asked to be customized, so they’re not for sell.  See detailed pictures after the jump.
