Tom Yoo has given the Nike Air VaporMax a LEGO makeover days before Air Max Day. Having already tackled popular silhouettes like the adidas Originals YEEZY BOOST 350 “Pirate Black,” Nike Air MAG, Nike Air Yeezy 2 “Red October,” and the Air Max 90 “Infrared” for last year’s celebration, the new iteration follows the “Pure Platinum” colorway and uses 1,050 LEGO bricks to create a spot-on homage. Measuring over 11.5 inches in length, the white Swoosh, clear outsole and circular Air unit design would make any Air Max fan’s day.

Check out the pictures above and watch the video of the entire process below.
