This post was made awhile ago, GourmetKickz has sinced released a solution to stop this for the sneakerheads who aren’t trying to fuck with scissors.

From Member: Gourmetkickz

“Tired of your kicks creasing after the first couple of wears? Me too! As a sneaker collector and customizer with 4 + years in the game, I have been trying different methods over the years to find a fool proof way to stop my kicks from creasing.

There is no need to spend money on gel inserts, or items that will immobilize the whole front of your shoe like a clog. The solution is much easier than all of those complicated solutions. First I will show u a picture of the solution, then I will take the time to explain why it works so well. Oh yea, and the best part, ITS FREE!!!!”

‘Obviously a made up sneaker but funny as hell… I gotta hand it to the bootlegers, nice concept…’

We actually have heard somewhat of a confirmation of this sneaker actually existing, the one in the picture are a proof of concept most likely to have come from sample espionage. What we are hearing rumored around is they will be a Holiday 2007 release.

So it’s looking like these mashup fakes are actually gonna come to fruition, wouldn’t be the first time fakes appeared before actual real samples (ex. C&K dunks).

UPDATE: This shoe is in accordance to Nike SB’s video release “Nothing But The Truth” releasing middle October…. That is why they did this, to celebrate the past few years of dunk history….its not like Nike hasnt done this before, Jordan Spizzike a mash up of a few shoes into one….. but in SB’s case its colorways and materials rolled up into one.
