Customs Vans SK8-Hi “Vintage Acid Wash”

Over the years, the obsession with basketball was seen and helped a growing number of customizers basketball at a level that could once never imagined. The personalization is one of our good friend Adam Trowell, better known in the world of sneakers and a faded blue jean theMenace.Using taken from a pair of vintage Levi's, high in SK8 equipment covered by loops of blue seat Royal and matching. Adam is now at a point where the creation of customized shoes are so clean, you think you're right on the sales floor. For example, two Vans Sk8-Hi that just ended. With an acid wash denim vintage personal love and some added stimulus of fellow sneaker customizer EmmanueLabor, theMenace decided to make the "supreme sacrifice" and cut a few pairs of otherwise hard to find acid-washed Levi's 501 and the use in a couple of new projects sneakers. A pair, that what is shown, features black denim on the top, while the torque in second place after the jump including blue jeans. Jean couture used to keep everything in place, with edges slightly frayed for a worn look. Apart from all the shoe itself, one of the things I like best the official Levi's label sewn into the right heel of each shoe. If Levis and Vans will meet one day, it would be the love child.
