I'm designing this but I'm not done yet I need to sew

>>11865356
i saw similar with a af1 mid top before. cool idea

critique: maybe the zip could be beige or olive and slightly shorter by an inch or so

>>11865367
Oh it's not done it's a rough concept

99% sure u are talking about this.
this is made by @1000Deaths on instagram. highly interested in doing smometjhing like this also but I couldn't find olive eyelet zippers for the life of me. idk if 1000Deaths made the zipper, to me it doesn't because of the end bit on the top curves. u can try asking him since he isnt that hard to get a hold of but u will be lucky if he bothers telling u anything

if anyone knows anything plz share tho

>>11865372
i like it man. i was actually thinking of doing something similar myself. cool that ur trying it

>>11865376
u can get a little gun that punches those eyelets on for you. so you just need that and a zipper in the color you want

>>11865380
I think slits instead of eyelets might look cleaner if I sewed them obviously

>>11865356
ghetto acronyms

how do those shoelaces even work

>>11865380
been thinking of that but idk if the tape would be wide enough to have holes in them

>>11865402
Completely different than acronyms. This isn't finished so it has the raw zipper ends like acronym but I based these entirely off a pair of boots I really liked but couldn't get. This isn't a shoe I made. It's an accessory to a shoe. This is completely detachable

>>11865356
p freakin awesome id def cop this

>>11865376
1000memes is so fucking over the top, the zipper is cool but the rest just looks retarded, especially the elastic band

>>11865581
>1000memes
this is so shit but i lol'd anyway

>>11865581
Exactly. Way too much going on. Just the zipper with the laces is enough imo and my version does it better. Zoom in on the laces on theirs

acronym lunar air force 1 rip off

get original, kid.

>>11865356
Reminds me of the zip sneakers from Axel Arigato, dope idea

>>11865750
Nah, I own the lunar force 1s and the size zippers are basically useless

This kid makes AF1s a bit more functional/technical than Errolson Hugh's stupid ass

>>11865695
no?

These are dope also, would cop pair for SFB if you made them

>>11865901
Fucking with these man. The black toecap is a serious good touch. Stick with this

>>11866572
Idk I personally think my take looks a fuck ton better than that. It's all the lacing imo

>>11865901
>>11866592
Lmfao hey that's a shop I didn't do that I do like it who ever shopped it definitely a good idea

>>11865356
I don't even like af1s but this is actually looking pretty cool

>>11866709
Thanks a lot man! I can't wait to finish em and make the final product

>>11866572
w2ccc

>>11865901
This is a million times better, original concept was pretty lame without the contrasts.

>>11867584
I don't want to make a shoe though I want to make something that people can customize for themselves. Like I want black on black but say you could do this. I want it to be up to u. I'm making a shoe accessory add on not a shoe.

>>11867584
With that being said forgot to say I completely agree it does look better

>>11865356
OK, that legit looks dope.

nice acrynm rip off

Either do this >>11865901

or just get a zipper with white surrounding fabric. It just looks tacked on as is

>>11866013
MM is usually dope but the pic you're responding to really does look awful

>>11867871
>>11867872
Samefag lmao

I knew this was going to come and I'll explain how it isn't an acronym ripoff. I'm sewing the ends of the zipper on either end so it's not raw like the acronyms. Also, I'm not making a shoe, I'm making the first shoe accessory add on. It's silly to compare a fully designed sneaker to a few pieces of fabric stitched to a zipper with holes.

If I ripped of acronym did acronym rip of the af1?

>>11867926
Okay, the acr af1s were an actual collab so you can't say that they ripped them off. i dunno if you were actually being serious with your analogy but its a stupid one.

>>11867936
Well obviously they collaborated and didn't "steal" any ideas as it was a collaboration but that's not what i meant with my analogy. I'm simply saying the similarities between my design and acronyms is mostly because we used the same shoe. That was worded poorly I apologize. I just don't think it's fair to say I ripped off acronym when the only similarity is the zipper and the original shoe.

>>11867936
With that being said the ends of the top and bottom of the zipper haven't been finished yet as the sewing lab is closed on the weekends.

>>11865356
Fucking copycat. 1000Deaths did this a long time ago, and a lot better too. You are a hack and a wannabe poser. KYS

I respect that its a custom so.its way more dope from that bjt honestly not feeling em. I think there's too much zipper at the top and personally not a fan of af1 lows. Good work though man
