You’ve got to keep things fresh to stay ahead of the curve in today’s sneakerhead set, but here’s a case where wearing something too long will most certainly have onlookers remarking that you rock ‘trash’. As in refuse, or compost, which is ultimately the fate for the ‘materials’ used on this insane ‘Real Oranges’ adidas custom created by Dan Cretu. This artist has also used orange peels to construct a bicycle piece, he’s put a melon on a lemon to make a ‘lamp’ and filled a cassette’s spools with salami slices. But sneakers made of old food would have Nike Free 7.0 to rank as the craziest of them all; would you wear a pair of these if they were made out of a more practical material? via Complex/Deviant Art
All 1,500 pairs of the Nike Mag 2011 have begun to appear on door-steps, and just last week we showed you the ‘unboxing’ experience of the Mag 2011 as well as the instruction booklet that accompanied with the shoes. We’ve already shown you Kanye West and Brian Wilson wear their pairs outdoors, but pint-sized sneaker fiend Franalations had put a video of the Nike Mag 2011 on feet, just to give you a look at how they appear when worn out in public. Of course, the shoes will definitely turn heads with the ‘wow’ factor alone, but no matter how cool the shoe really looks, only Michael J. Fox can really pull them off. Check out the full video below and let us know what you think, and if you’re bummed that you missed out on a pair, remember that some pairs have been re-listed on eBay.
