JGoods Customs created the AF1 Future for a client named R. Fallon recently. The Air Force Ones Future retailed for $900, comparable to other custom sneakers on the JGoods website. The color scheme and the fade effect was lifted from the design used in the movie posters and opening sequence of Back to the Air Future Shoes. These pictures were found at the JGoods Sneaker Gallery linked airnk.com .
The designer of the Air Force Ones Future started with a baby blue Nike swoosh and matching lining along the middle panel and toe box. JGoods faded the deep red color of the heel and toe into orange as your eye drifts to the back of the toe box. Once you reach the middle panel, the orange has converted completely to yellow before giving way to light blue and white.
The AF1 Future Shoes is yet another reason why JGoods Customs has been hit up by ball players and sneaker fans alike. The fine touch required to quickly fade red to orange to yellow in a matter of inches is difficult to find elsewhere. My favorite touch on the “Future” is the Back to the Future Shoes lettering used on the tongue, something that isn’t obvious at first glance.
