The Real Nike Air Max Yeezy 1's

I had made a sketch of these awhile back and now I finally decided to make these come to life. I think the real pair came out real nice. I made two different versions one with the Jordan 3 sole make up and also one with the classic Air Max 1 sole. Leave a comment which one you like more. Comments greatly appreciated!!! Enjoy the pics.

Nike Zoom Fly-Lite

This is my latest design. I wanted to go ahead and post the lateral view. Im working on the medial and bottom view. I will post as soon as I am finished with them. I got inspiration from the Nike hyper dunk 2010. I wanted the shoe to have the new flywire skin that is being used on the Kobe V and also the Nike Hyper Dunk 2010. The shoe also has a huarache feel to the collar and sits on a neon green translucent heel outsole. Please comment. It will only help me improve my skills. Thanks enjoy.

The Nike Air RetroSpec. Take Time and Reflect.

I designed these back in 2008 when I first received Creative Suite 3. This was my first shoe I really practiced a lot on with the programs. I called it the "RetroSpec" (yes I know I spelled it wrong on purpose) because I was just sitting back and "reflecting" about a couple different shoes from when I was growing up and their different attributes that made them unique from others at the time. I thought about the Air Max 95 and how they really pushed the neon color-ways. This version of the Nike Air Max was designed after the human anatomy. I thought about the Air Jordan 15. When I first saw this shoe back in 8th grade I thought WTF is Jordan Brand doing? But after owning a pair I really took interest in the woven upper. It was tough, durable and hugged the fore foot and that material was not common on any basketball shoe. The Air Max 90 was inspiration because of how they made the air unit stand out on the mid-sole with color surrounding it. I also wanted to make the shoe have a late 80's early 90's look and feel so I set it on a Nike Huarache Runner mid-sole with the Jordan 4 speckled details to bring it all together as a "RetroSpec" (Retrospect).

Nike Air Max Yeezy

I decided to post this concept of my design for the Nike Air Max Yeezy I had done in 2009. I had first did this concept when the first color-way of the Nike Air Yeezy released. I am a huge fan of the Nike Air Max 1. I thought about what does the Air Max 1 and the Air Yeezy have in common development wise? Tinker pushed the envelope when he designed the Air Max 1 with allowing the air bag to be visible to the public. I also think Nike's CEO Mark Parker was pushing the envelope when allowing the first Nike shoe ever to be exclusive for a non-athlete. This is my first sketch concept. I will have an updated and final version including other ideation sketches soon.
