My latest greatest... Full set of pics on the site... http://JBFcustoms.com Also follow me on twitter @JBFcustoms... There should be a link in the sig.

These are made of red suede, along with Black and white leather. The midpanel and ankle panel are a custom made fabric covered with Jordan retro cards 1-14. The tongue tag features Jordan doing the iconic jumpman dunk, while the heeltab is embroidered with the # "23"

Thanks for looking and Let me know what you think!

Typically I am not fond of a dunk without a swoosh, even if there is a clear swoosh on there it would usually work better then no swoosh imo but in this case with the topic material and the structure of the design I think it works perfectly. Amazing attention to detail mate, 23 on the back is super cool. Great Job. BTW I love a gum rubber outsole!

Great choice in materials. The 23 on the heel tab is genius. The splatter came on the base midsole, right?

Yea the splatter came stock... Kinda wish it wasn't on there actually, but I had that base sitting around for like a year and wanted to use it haha

yeah, I agree with sekure... these could def. use a clear swoosh, imo.... btw, have you seen eL's take on this idea? it was one of his first customs....

the printable fabric you used, was it on a laser printer or inkjet?? I'm curious to know.

besides that, I REALLY like that you used a 'non-standard' #23 on the back heel that actually is really classy. A little subtle accent like that is something you hope Nike/Jordan Brand would "borrow" because it's something they should've used already.

I guess I'm a slave to the swoosh. A clear swoosh, or even a stitched swoosh outline would make these "right" for me.
I mean the work and materials are beautiful, but the lack of swoosh is a bit unsettling
