When done right, “Triple Black” sneaker iterations can easily prove itself as some of the most in-demand models out in the market — as witnessed time and time again from the likes of Nike and adidas. This, coupled with custom craftsmanship and premium textile construction can result in something truly unique. Applying his own eclectic spin on a pair of all-black adidas UltraBOOSTs is bespoke artist Jack The Ripper. The uppers feature a Hender Scheme-inspired lasered calf leather and suede composition with hand cut laces. However, a closer look at the model reveals a handful of distinct design cues, including an etched pattern along the toe box and vamp area, a jet black tooling system and the unique tongue pull tabs.
