The Nike Air Max 1 and Zoom Spiridon “Parra” models could easily make this year’s list of best footwear drops. The Dutch artist’s multi-patterned designs on each shoe are now embellished on the Virgil Abloh x Air Jordan 1 courtesy of New York City-born artist and sneaker customizer, Dan “Mache” Gamache. Using the “Powder Blue” model as the canvas, Mache meticulously employs Parra’s stripes and polka dot motifs on the overlays of the shoe. Rounding out the makeup are cloud details on the quarter panels.

Peep the custom above and head over to Mache’s official website to view more projects. In related stories, the official store list for the Off-White™ x Nike Air Presto in black has been announced.
