Nike [Fresh Prince of Bel-Air] Air Max 90 Customs

Nike [Fresh Prince of Bel Air] Air Max 90 CustomsWill Smith is a box office powerhouse in the movie industry, with several people believing that his career is edging toward the same path of greatness like Denzel Washington. However, before he began soaring into national stardom, he first appeared in a TV sitcom series called “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air,” where he starred as a kid from Philly who had to adjust to living in the high scale area of Bel-Air. Using this sitcom as inspiration, Twitch created the custom Nike Air Max sneaker that you see before you. Twitch focused on the imagery and graphics from the show’s intro/theme song, especially the images behind Will when he’s spinning around in the gold throne and the artwork behind his mom when she’s talking. Overall, the sneaker incorporates an 80’s theme of assorted neon colors (neon green, neon pink, yellow, etc) similar to the funky multicolored gear Will normally wore on the show. This custom sneaker is currently for sale in a size 9.5 Mens and includes a pair of neon pink and neon green laces. If your interested please contact Twitch. Checkout detailed pictures and the theme song to “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” after the jump.
