Michael Lau created a crazy wood grain Nike SB Zoom Stefan Janoski to commemorate the tenth anniversary of his Gardner vinyl figurines.  A set dropped in LA at the ‘Gardner Tenth’ exhibition, each pair of shoes along with a randomly coloured toy.  Turns out that wasn’t the only chance you have at getting these maple-toned beauties along with a bright plastic companion.  It’ll be an NY Fat 12″ figure in either purple, red, orange, green or one of two shades of yellow along with the kicks, now avaiable at Kix-Files.

Style: 375361-200
Color: Wood/Light Brown

It’s well-documented that the idea of Air Jordan Fusions is a touchy subject with a lot of sneakerheads, but in this case, some of you might have a slightly better reaction to this latest Air Jordan hybrid. This remote controlled Camaro has been customized to take on the characteristics of the Fire Red Air Jordan III, from the layout and color-blocking, right down to some panels of Elephant print wrapping around the hood and trunk areas. This is not the first time that the similarities between car and sneaker design has been so evident, but this example certainly shows off a pretty seamless transition. To really make this concept legit, actual laces have been included across the roof section and even a mock Air Jordan hangtag has been created with the Jumpman logo holding a Chevy symbol instead of a basketball.

However flashy Lil Wayne’s CLVII-designed customs, they’re nowhere near as portable as these lil Skytops.  Pictured above is the Supra Skytop keychains collection.  They’re a bit larger than the photo, but not much, ensuring they can fit in your pocket with ease.  There’s one each in gold (colour, not the actual metal), silver (not sure on this one) and black (duh).  Each comes in a tiny drawstring bag, inside a mini Supra shoebox.  Cop one or all of them today from Supra retailers including Premier.
