Desp1: Vans Zapato Del Barco Gator

Post by Desp1 »

Some new work from me. First time using a Vans Zapato Del Barco base for customizing, it was fun and i enjoyed making them, and will probably release a bunch other customs in other colorways using different materials.
As always this shoe was fully hand sewn using a sewing awl.
The toe cap and side panels were replaced with faux gator leather material.
The kicks are available for order through my web store: http://frshaccessories.storenvy.com/

For more detailed pics please hit up my site: http://www.thefreshandfly.com/

Or hit up my facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/FreshAndFlyCustoms
Also the 500 person to like my FB page will win 2 custom made shamballa bracelets of their choice from my Noir Line that is available at my webstore now.

Sick man! I'm liking that material choice for sure! Been awhile since we've seen a custom, and a reconstruction custom at that! If I see another South Beach inspired colorway, I'm going off! BTW, Ima' blog this in a bit. Nice job as always.

Thanks for the kind words on the post up man i really appreciate it. Yea i am so sick of South Beach/NERF customs, its one of the main reasons im not releasing so much stuff because even the custom game became all hypebeasty lol. I am hoping to release much more Vans customs now that i got this surge of inspirations from this project. Once again thanks for the post up on the main page i really appreciate it.
