espoke Air Force One - Designed by Pete from Premium Laces

Our latest Bespoke Air Force One post features a pair of slick AF1s designed by Pete who owns Premium Laces. Pete designed his Bespoke Air Force Ones in such a way that you cant really take it the full effect of them at first glance. Upon looking at the sneakers in their regular state the design features a nice grey/black elephant pattern on the toebox, frontal, lace panel and heel tab with a cool shade of grey on the mid-panels. Sort of remindes me of a gun metal grey. Anyway, if Pete gets catch in front of a camera or wears these out at night the sneakers really come to life, with glowing 3M panels on the side and on the tongue. Some may say theres a little bit to much 3M but we happen to love the 3M with the elephant print, and the lovely clear icey sole unit. Props to Pete from Premium Laces on his Bespoke Air Force One design.
