Though the whimsical Vault Boy might be single most recognizeable character from Bethesda’s Fallout video games, fans of the series know its signature aesthetic is post-nuclear-apocalyptic. This look inspired Jacob Patterson’s latest Nike Dunk High custom, a piece he titled ‘Vault Dweller’ and paired with a bomb casing sculpture that doesn’t just serve as a sick sneaker stand. It’s also a speaker for the two jailbroken iPod Touch devices embedded in each shoe’s tongue as a tribute to the PipBoy 2000 Personal Information Processor. The PIP-Boy got upgraded to 3000 in the recent New Vegas release; does this ‘Vault Dweller’ custom represent a similar leap for handcrafted sneaker designs? Let us know what you think when you click through for more images and stick with Sneaker News for the latest custom designs. via PaintOrThread
