All Star Weekend: Jordan’s Elephant Print Lasering
Another new technology from Jordan Brand and a must-try for every fan is the Elephant Print lasering that can customize rare All Star Weekend sneakers or your favorite line of Air Jordans. The process of attaining this latest breakthrough is very laborious. From foil wrapping to taping off the shoe, the resulting unique sneaker is worth every effort. Popularized by Air Jordan III, the lasering machine will have a tour around the world starting on Europe and back to Oregon. So do you think that having your own “1 of 1’s” is a good idea?

Kurt Cobain Converse All Star
This year, Converse still continue to produce Nirvana founder Kurt Cobain’s footwear collection. And this coming Spring 2010, another pack is scheduled to be released consist of 2 Chuck Taylor Hi’s and 2 Chuck Taylor Lo’s. Compared to the Grunge pack released previously which includes a Jack Purcell and a One Star Shoes, this set looks a little more clean. But I do think the Grunge is better than this. Well, it all depends on the person who’s gonna wear it you know.
Take a look of the Kurt Cobain Spring 2010 collection (above) and the Kurt Cobain Grunge collection (below) and be the judge.

Cool Custom Dunks
A lot of talented artists are coming out these days customizing sneakers and doing their own thing. These custom dunks are truly works of art! From plain colored sneakers, they turn it to one hell of a masterpiece. My all time favorite is this Nike SB custom dunk high – Pico Dos Sonhos. This was a collaboration of Nike SB Brazil with a group of pro skaters that turned a plain Nike’s most popular skateboarding shoes into art.
Another one (below) is made by a man name Mr. Do It All and was the winner of the greenlabelart.com contest way back in 2007. Nice work guys!
