Our latest spotlight on a custom sneaker creation comes from an artist who’s unquestionably at the top of his game right now; is El Cappy the best customizer doing it today? We’ve seen him combine styles as disparate as Air Force 1s and Christian Louboutin, but even something as crazy as his ‘Las Vegas Nights’ AF1s can’t hold a candle to the vast scope expressed on this latest design. The Nike SB Dunk High ‘What the Dunk’ is a hightop version of that legendary 2007 mashup that arguably paved the way for the advent of modern hybridization thanks to its approach that combined ‘spare parts’ from 20+ of the best SB Dunks. The original ‘What the Dunks’ got sneakerheads everywhere talking about hybrid designs; how long will we remember El Cappy’s hightop version?
i need these how could i get them??
EL CRAPPY
yo mad respect to El Cap for these, i salute you because these are ill!!!!!!!
Like the concept. I don't think I could have done it better. It is weird how the sections are on the wrong panel compared to the original and wrong materials. Not a fan of the lucky and unlucky numbers being there as they were already on the lows. Also why the BAM! panel? Those kicks were disgusting. All in all great concept, but the execution could have been different to make more sense.
maybe for the midpanel could have a better inspiration shoes than the Boom dunks 2010 , but execution isn't bad
SewFresh!
the idea was insane man. props!
imagine if Nike actually made a pair w the actual material. the real shoe would look dope. but this was executed nicely tho
These are fresh but I'm pretty sure he butchered a bunch of fakes for the parts right? Where he get a day of the dead, heniken and de la soul high ankle straps? Either way, these are crazy
he didn't get any parts the shoe was a “Mighty Crown” Dunk base!
So that's all just a paint job (*_*). Sweet mother of god. That is some talent
*Mighty Crown dunk.... Great effort and it looks cool.
yes, sweet custom job, with the Mighy crowns as base shoe the cemprint and croc skin look superdope
Cracker than the lows.
These are pretty fucking dope right here!!!
This is amazing... comparable to the lows.
Amazing skills.
Would've been nicer if he just put colorways that were from SB Dunk Highs instead of adding some designs from dunk lows like Heinekens, Day of the Dead.
but the lows also had some designs from dunk highs like the hufs, lucky's, supreme highs etc
exactly what i was thinking. I feel like it defeats the purpose of the whole idea.
doin work huh, Thats whats up good job on the all the features and getting all and not missing any characteristic
these are AWESOME
EL CAPPY Doin it again with a fire ass custom !!
