    3M Orlando Nike Air Force Ones

    I spoke about Emmanuelabor’s Pennies from Heaven Air Force Ones yesterday in length. The Air Force Ones shown in this post complete the designer’s thread regarding Anfernee womens nike free Penny Hardaway. These special shoes are less obvious for sneaker fans unfamiliar with the NBA guard’s career than the simple penny design used previously.
    Emmanuelabor used the black/silver/blue colorway featured on old Orlando cheap nike free 3.0 Magic jerseys as the palette for these customs. The center womens air max 95 panel is kept dark blue with a black swoosh to match the dark blue outsole. The designer applied silver paint to the rest of the shoe that creates slight reflection with direct light.
    I think the Pennies cheap nike 6.0 mavrk from Heaven design is stronger than the 3M Orlando shoe. The small touches and unique color of the Pennies from Heaven Air Force Ones are refreshing in a market filled with silver, black and blue shoes. I hope that Emmanuelabor uses his love of basketball and custom design to pump out some more sneakers in the near future.
