This is why I lose too much time on this site.. With all the hype surrounding the original Nike’s that are worn by Marty McFly in Back to the Future II. Here is a unique spin on the using the modern SB as a canvas, with out further adieu.. The much anticipated Back to the Future Part 2 Dunk High!!
Inspiration from Marty’s lenticular hat, the DeLorean, and the Mattell hoverboard. Check out the killer pics after the jump.

While not technically Skateboarding related, chalk this up as a very exciting development in the shoe industry all together.
At the Grammy’s Kanye shined with his performance featuring Daft Punk, a moving rendition of ‘Hey Mama’, and scooped up a few awards. However, sneakerheads were all looking for one thing: his shoes. Well, as is shown in the following pictures, Kanye was wearing some Nike’s no one has yet to see. When asked about his ensemble, and in particular his shoes, he said: “I had on a pair of Nikes too, but I can’t talk about those because they’re not out yet.”
We do know a few things. First off, the swoosh appears to be lasered into the shoe, it also features an “Air Flight Revolution outsole, and tongue and ankle shaped similar to the Air Force V.” (Via nicekicks)
Check the link for more pics, and let the speculation begin.

Here is the first look at I GOT SEOUL customs by Abomnation from Virginia. Cleverly worded here is what he had to say..
“IF YOUR EVER IN KOREA AND NEED HELP GETTING AROUND… NO NEED FOR A TOUR GUIDE COP YOU A PAIR OF THESE. THE SUBWAY IS THE BEST WAY TO TRAVEL. I WANTED TO DO THESE BECAUSE I AM MOVING TO KOREA IN A FEW MONTHS. ENJOY THE DESIGN.”

from TWiTCH:
I am MADDD late with these I know…The whole Graduation craze is gone already but oh well…I had done this pair months ago while the hype was still alive but felt it had alot of things missing so I decided to added alot more things to the shoe to complete it. I tried to stay away from the purples and oranges on the normal album cover (cause they didn’t fit the green in the base shoe) and chose to use some of the other artwork Murakami did for his pre-release stuff. I couldn’t find any neon yellow/green laces so I bought some white laces and dyed them kinda neon yellow by watering down some neon yellow paint and swishing the laces around in a water bottle to soak the color into the laces. Sorry some of the pics are dark. I tried out that lightbox tutorial in the Art & Photography section and I couldn’t get the lighting to be bright enough but I guess they came out okay.
