METALLIC BLACK

3 months of remaking the pattern using the deconstructed metallic blue1985.
OG 1985 Nike Air tags were repurposed for these.

Outsoles are from the Neutral Grey retro 85’s. Everything is still sewn on the 1950s singer sewing machine… uppers are vegetable tanned leather hand painted and finished, Swooshes are freehand cracked vinyl, wings logo still screen printed and embossed with detailing tool. Few things I’ve moved on from include Tupperware heel counters (now 1.6mm Texon), Pellon fuse foam for tongues, and Barge all purpose cement (now barge Superstik)

Insoles feature a TH factory shaped Nike Air print which sits on top of terry cloth lined insoles just like the OGs.
