Is it just us or have the Bespokes been getting way better lately? It seems that Bespokers have been stepping up their game recently and the latest evidence comes from all the way across the pond. The UK may be dominated by Air Max devotion, but you might catch Gary Warnett of Crooked Tongues fame in a pair of Black/Cement Air Jordan III’s. So during his recent trip to NYC, Gary just couldn’t pass up the opportunity for a Bespoke session. The result is right up there with the best we’ve seen, in thanks perhaps to the inspiration behind this design achievement; none.
Despite the overwhelming task of having to get an $820 sneaker creation right on the first shot, instead of coming in with a calculated gameplan, Gary chose to wing it and just let the fresh come together spontaneously. As you can see, he stayed cool under pressure and wound up whipping up one of the cleanest Bespokes yet, denying the urge to use every material and color available and going with a tasteful simplicity that lets the materials and color choices speak for themselves. Keep reading for more pics after the jump, and for more details on the materials and design process, you can check out Gary telling the story himself over on Crooked Tongues.

What'z up HOT CHICK?

Wow. a nice Bespoke.
That is the problem with an $820 sneaker though.
Even though that shoe is nice, is it worth that kind of money? No.
Sorry Nike, not getting me for $820 when it only costs you $175 to make them.
Yes kids, it only costs Nike $175 to make a Bespoke.

August 15th, 2010 at 1:15 am
super great, but again, im not paying 800$ for these …
August 15th, 2010 at 6:25 am
Very clean.
August 15th, 2010 at 10:45 am
clean but definitely not worth 800+, could've used some more creativity on the designer's part especially for 800 go for it and make something absolutely unique, while these look fine they're really nothing special at all

best bespokes ive seen yet, period.
August 15th, 2010 at 2:24 pm

August 15th, 2010 at 9:06 pm
Love the canvas and denim on this shoe. #CLEAN
August 15th, 2010 at 9:11 pm

October 22nd, 2010 at 9:32 am
yeah but to Gary Warnett I'm sure they're very much worth it because HE designed a great sneaker. If I designed these I'd be so proud of myself
