In this era when we’re seeing more new colorway ‘sampling’ custom designs than the traditional one-off approach, have any models been more popular repositories of other sneakers’ palettes than the LeBron 8 and Air Jordan VI? The latter is back for yet another round, this time offering an expanded take on a theme that Nike SB once tried to utilize only to be turned back by legal troubles. The Air Jordan VI ‘Krueger’ isn’t a tribute to industrial smoothing, but rather a sendup of Wes Craven’s Elm Street villain including his gruesome facial skin and singature striped sweater. These are quite a bit more graphic than the Dunk Low Pro SB that got nixed when Paramount filed suit, but how do they compare to Diversitile’s Dunk Highs that popped up around the last Halloween? Let us know which is the best Freddy Krueger sneaker yet and click thorugh to see more images of El Cappy‘s latest.

Sooo fucken dope
February 1st, 2012 at 12:41 pm
Now this is a custom, none of that "south beach" bs. An original ideal put on a canvas, not some recycled garbage that was already done. Bout time we had somebody with some real creativity and talent make a custom Kudos to you El Cappy

I aint even going to front these are mad creative.
February 1st, 2012 at 12:43 pm
i'm not into customs, but these are pretty ill, nice concept. I wouldn't wear these, i would have them more as an art piece.
February 1st, 2012 at 12:44 pm
That Jumpman made me lol… Literally. That is the best part of this shoe. Nice Customs!
February 1st, 2012 at 12:47 pm
THIS IS A FIRST FOR ME CUZ I WOULD PUT THESE ON MY FEET FOR SURE, THESE ARE KILLER!
February 1st, 2012 at 12:48 pm
I mean, why keep fuckin up Jordan 6's? …. Do this bullshit to some 1's or 15's or somethin …. But the 6's tho? … That's just disrespectful … & furthermore … These look like shit! … Go paint on a canvas of u just need to paint/draw some shit … "el crappy"
February 1st, 2012 at 12:50 pm
Wow this is really creative, but it's a FAIL. The only thing that makes the shoe nice is the jumpman on the back and the heel part with the "blood" the rest is just ummmmmm…..
February 1st, 2012 at 12:50 pm
SIIICCCKKKKKKK VERY ARTISTIC
February 1st, 2012 at 12:51 pm
dope
February 1st, 2012 at 12:51 pm
Someone has some awesome skills. These are sweet. Especially the jumpman logo. (Freddy Man)
February 1st, 2012 at 12:51 pm
YEEZY custom is still by far the best Jordan 6 custom out there! In my opinion, the yeezy 6 custom are better then the original Yeezys themselves.
February 1st, 2012 at 12:52 pm
I usually like his stuff but this one es no bueno
February 1st, 2012 at 12:53 pm
its ugly overall but freddy as the jump man is super dope
February 1st, 2012 at 12:55 pm
The Jumpman is probably the best detail on the shoe.
February 1st, 2012 at 12:55 pm
The Krueger Jumpman is nice though
February 1st, 2012 at 12:56 pm
these are tuffff!!!!!!!! great custom bro
February 1st, 2012 at 12:57 pm
Oh wow
February 1st, 2012 at 12:58 pm
How do they compare? These are killing those dunks.
February 1st, 2012 at 12:58 pm
Freddy as the jump man on the back thats different
February 1st, 2012 at 1:01 pm
No.
February 1st, 2012 at 1:03 pm
this guy is too clever… good job!
February 1st, 2012 at 1:05 pm
II like the Freddy krueger jumpman
February 1st, 2012 at 1:06 pm
DOPE
February 1st, 2012 at 1:17 pm
Fredman only good thing. Looks like pizza all over it.
February 1st, 2012 at 1:18 pm
Wait didn't SB already do Freddy Cruger Shoe? Answer yes! So this isn't so original. The execution and fine details are nice, but not original. I don't care honestly, to me its not a shoe its a piece of art.. Job well done.
February 1st, 2012 at 1:31 pm
great idea, great execution, great detail, but there is a little too much going going on for the shoe
February 1st, 2012 at 2:31 pm
I would do so much just to have these on my feet
February 1st, 2012 at 2:34 pm
Ok I'm tired of getting my comments deleted. I Am GAY! Can't people on a sneaker website look past my orientation. I am an open phagget by I love sneakers. You know how hard it is to be a gay sneaker head!?!? Hopefully sneaker news allow me to pOst this.
February 1st, 2012 at 2:35 pm
Why u steal my name! U always steal my name! Make me want to scream like a girl!
February 1st, 2012 at 2:36 pm
Bruh these retros suck ASS!!!!!!! Any nigga who wears these ain't got no type of swag!
February 1st, 2012 at 2:37 pm
No they not pussy. Come to my YouTube page to see some real retro!!
February 1st, 2012 at 2:40 pm
We all know that's JASON! Not Freddy Kruger. And the retro 6's always sucked. Michael Jordan has lost his mind letting insecure people ruin his shoes. But hey the original were ruined to do what difference does it make!
February 1st, 2012 at 2:47 pm
Whack ass FUCK!
February 1st, 2012 at 2:48 pm
Your right, but he didn't make an exact replica of that shoe/colorway. This is original patterns and the paint job is completely different. This actually took some creativity unlike alot of those customs sneakernews shows which shows the same patterns on a different shoe
February 1st, 2012 at 2:58 pm
LOL. Freddy got a catcher's mit on.
February 1st, 2012 at 3:25 pm

February 1st, 2012 at 3:31 pm

February 1st, 2012 at 3:44 pm
Wow.. These r sick! Great work bro. I wish I could get my hands on a pair.
February 1st, 2012 at 4:07 pm
The Jumpman is the best part. Nice overall custom though (y)
February 1st, 2012 at 4:17 pm
SPEECHLESS!
MAGNIFICENT SPECIMEN!
The Franchise would be proud.
February 1st, 2012 at 4:18 pm
Glad someone found a use for all those shitty white/varsity VI's sitting up at the Nike outlets.
February 1st, 2012 at 4:37 pm
Other than the Jumpan logo this is trash.
February 1st, 2012 at 4:39 pm
OMG R YOU FUKING SERIOUS! ULTRACOP! you just dont know!! il roc k the fuck outtah these hos and straight up kill em!! have all you ho ass dudes hating!! you just donttt know!!! perfect! i love these better then almost all retros and everything! omg!! if he would give me a price we would be at it cause i need these
February 1st, 2012 at 6:59 pm

February 1st, 2012 at 7:35 pm
I LIKES, VERY DETAILED SHOE, IM FEELING THAT KRUGER JUMPMAN ON THE BACK! BEST PART OF SHOE
February 1st, 2012 at 8:43 pm
its called creativity, instead of just binding yourself to everything that JB makes. I can tell you dont do anything for yourself.
February 1st, 2012 at 8:55 pm
This Custom Gets a A+ Due to the detailed Krueger Jumpman Simply Dopeness! Other than that the paint job on this shoe is ridiculous gotta give respect to this joint
February 1st, 2012 at 8:56 pm
lmao how is that Jason? Wtf? How old are you?
February 1st, 2012 at 9:02 pm
If You Smoke Sour Fuck Wit This!!!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLZOooo3LMo
February 1st, 2012 at 9:52 pm

February 1st, 2012 at 10:35 pm
These are bananas.great creativity
February 1st, 2012 at 10:52 pm
I usually don't do this but you're dumb as a gun buddy. Freddy DOES NOT wear a flippin mask & he wears the red & black sueter. No blades either. Damn.
February 1st, 2012 at 11:46 pm
EL CRAPPY DOES IT AGAIN!!!
February 1st, 2012 at 11:59 pm
this is just brilliant artwork…WOW! amazing dude!
February 2nd, 2012 at 12:34 am
if someone gave them to me for a gift i would wear em
February 2nd, 2012 at 12:38 am
i wouldnt rock these at all but props on the imagination and creativity, some people dont understand that its not always about "SWAG" but the love for the sneaker game, taking a SB that would never be released and combining it with a pair of kicks that are legendary with a classic old school horror flick? CREATIVITY AT ITS BEST, but like i said, i wouldnt rock these LOL!!
February 2nd, 2012 at 12:49 am
lol at the dumbass below who said this is jason cuz freddy wears a hockey mask
February 2nd, 2012 at 5:28 am
that shit krey, ILL
February 2nd, 2012 at 10:26 am
SMH, none of yall are truly not creative saying this sucks. these are sick. these and the yeezy customs. CUSTOMS people, there are only 1 of 1. they arent coming out. So many of yall complain for the stupidest things. how is it disgraceful, you actin like you made these. calm down. you just mad cause you cant rock….
February 2nd, 2012 at 10:27 am
That jumpman is so nice. Give me these !
February 2nd, 2012 at 10:34 am
SMH, these asre creative. you just mad cause you cant rock. These are CUSTOMS btw, which means there is only one pair, these and the Yeezy customs are amazing. think outside the box, stop stayin in yah lil boxed up mind that sees something creative as something that should be shunned.
February 2nd, 2012 at 12:57 pm
Man thats some epic work…. I would have done some things slightly differently to make it "easier" on the eys but, man, the quality of work is really great. The way he handled the tendons is great and the Freddy on the back is a great touch.
February 2nd, 2012 at 1:53 pm
You couldnt be more wrong. How in the age of the internet could you be so wrong?
February 2nd, 2012 at 2:18 pm
don't make me shoot you
February 6th, 2012 at 7:16 pm
Super. Fire ass J's… Mike a legend!! Chi Townin the buildin. 1st of don't hate on these Freddy's and 2nd of you need bread too even afford these kicks. And third your broke that's y you hate!
