Custom Kicks – A Yankee Gone Nike Dunk High

• Tweet

As a collaboration with Eye Candy, this custom Dunk High was themed around the Yankees Away jersey; a template of colors that is consistently repeated in fashion. Using a matte gray all over the upper, a clean black tongue with a digital camo print in the mid, the colors tie together perfectly. Right above the toe box you can see the New York Yankees branding, as well as a 26 in place of a tongue tag. The staggered 26 has multiple means, one being the number of World Series the Yankees have won, with the tiled background representing the hope of the number disappearing [and being replaced with a 27]. Similar to the Negro League releases, the stitching all mirrors baseball stitching, which is one of the great details of this release. Another detail that you may not notice is the numbering on the heel, above the city skyline, letting the world know that this is a 1 of 1 Limited Run.
