Battle of the Bespokes
Bespoke Nike Sportswear Air Force 1
Nike Sportswear 21 Mercer introduced the luxury Bespoke NikeiD program back in November 2008. This platform is only for the big spenders seeing that it will cost you around $825 to get your Bespoke on. The British word bespoke simply means custom made or tailor made. Nike’s Bespoke feature allows you to build an Air Force 1 from the ground up.
We’ve seen a massive amount of Bespoke AF1’s from our homie MAYOR, who currently has the Bespoke AF1 game on lock. Other celebs and collectors have hit 21 Mercer to design a pair of Bespoke 1’s including Lil Penny and many more. That’s grand, but what about the non-famous everyday sneaker freaks? You know the one’s that work hard and save, or what about the people that flip kicks to buy kicks? They also make some crazy Bespoke Uptowns, so today it’s time for them to shine. To spice things up a bit we decided to add a poll and present to you for the first time ever, the Battle of the Bespokes.

This is one hard battle, but since Spring/Summer is right around the corner I gotta go with the Hot Lime ATC Bespoke AF1’s. Clark, Greg, and MAYOR where you at? MAYOR who do you want to battle?
I agree with you G-Roc! The hot Lime Green ones are good to go!
THESE ARE RIDICULOUS……….. FIRE AS USUAL………….
these are ok, but id have to say they can’t f*ck with the heat mayor brought out in SMYSC 16.5!!
i’ll take the Hectics. hands down.
I think the order should be 4,2,3,and 1. The pink hulks are super sick with the Kaws side stiching and croc swoosh! But where are Clark and Mayor’s bespokes at this is nothing compared to what they have done and or will do.
ONCE AGAIN, I THINK I SHOULD BE CLEAR.. I WILL NEVER BATTLE ANYBODY WITH SNEAKERS.. I AM NOT ABOUT THAT.. THE NAMES YOU GUYS KEEP THRROWING OUT THERE, MAYOR, GREG STREET, ETC.. ARE ALL MY FRIENDS & CREW!!!! WITH THAT SAID… I WOULD HAVE TO SAY THE 2 BEST BESPOKES I HAVE SEEN SO FAR, BELONG TO “ALL DAY” & “SMOKEY”… THEY MADE STRAIGHT FIRE !!!!!!!!!!!!
^Yeah Yeah I hear that blah blah blah. 1st let me say A-Town we go hard!! What up Clark! You know I’m going to keep saying it until you give in. I know MAYOR will be up for a friendly Bespoke Battle, and even Street if he has any Bespoke’s yet. Anyways, tell All Day and Smokey to send over some pics (you got the e-mail), so TSGers can see their designs. It’s all love, but you never did say which pair above you like the most.
Them PinK HulK’s is straight FiRE!
Pink hulks all the way…
Lime’s all damn day
If the Pink in the Pink hulk’s was a different color I’d pick them (even though that would require changing the name), the mad hectic remix is nothing special to me, the google’s could use a different sole so I pick the hot lime’s because I could see myself wearing these.
If The Google Joints Were White Instead Of Black, Theyd Get My Vote…
But Lime And Black Seem To Always Be A Classic No Matter What Shoe Its On…
Agassis For Me…
The 1st 1’s are no, but the rest are a go….$825? If my girl catch my buyin a pr., she’ll go dumb!! “U lost ur mind? Where my pr at?”
Feel free to give them different nicknames. I just gave them the names for the poll.
They should have made the 1st ones the first Rasta Air Force ones…i like em all tho.
LIMES ARE REALLY DOING IT FOR ME!!!!
#3<<<<<<<<
Hectics all day long……all of em look pretty good, even thought I am “THE WORLDS BIGGEST AF1 HATER!!!!!!!!” LOL……
1.Wailers (Bob Marley’s Band)
2.Unpixies (reverse pixie premiums)
3.Russians (jus remind me of somthin russian lol)
4.Bleach (almost like bleach denims)
#4 gets it for uniqueness. neva quite seen
that execution on an ID shoe.
Pink Hulks are crazy….
makes wanna go back to do another one.
2, 3, 4, 1… HOT LIMEs are to clean tho!!!!
PINK HULKS!!
but i cant say hands down. only ones i didnt like was #3. but its good. but i c u biggin up ATL G-Roc, thats whats up. hopefully u agree w/ my last post bout Wish, but uh yeah. nice lil battle. very close results on these things so far
to tell you the truth im not really feeling any of these. i really liked mayors denim bespokes that he showed off in the video though. those would be my favorite.
SH***TT those hectic rmx’s r fireeeeeeee…dammit…nike take notes on how 2 mix materials n keep the colorways basic and FIRE..literally
GOOGLE!!!
id go with the madd hectics cause i have a extremely similar pair that me n dude jus came up with the same idea (which will be surfacing)….and much love clark…if only u guys got to see clarks Bespoke heat…he shut it down….
I’m digging the Andre Agassi pair. You G-Roc if you want to see Smok3y’s Bespokes you can check the page out. He shot me pics of 3 pairs.
if the mad hectic’s where white or black they would be massive fire!!!
Smok3y, your Hectic remix Bespoke’s just shut shit down, those give Mayor’s reverse denim’s a run for the money, let me ask you a question, did those cost $820, or were they $2g’s due to the croc.
Good looks Jaya.
THX joey!! and these cost 820 (it would be 820 if you useed all croc) those 2000 made to order lux crocs had a different croc material….!!
Hmmmm those pink hulks are on point but i had 2 go with the Mad Hec remix ya digg!
I don’t usually mess with AF1’s but I had to vote for the Mad Hectic’s.
I’VE SEEN ANOTHER CRAZY PAIR OF ALL RED BESPOKE THAT KILLED THE “MAD HECTIC REMIX”
SO IM GOING TO GO WITH THE PINK HULK
