A collaboration between a custom footwear maker and a visual artist has resulted in truly gorgeous custom shoes. Known for his work published under the #deliciouskicks hashtag, @ryustyler photographs sneakers alongside colorful food or other everyday objects. Recently he teamed up with Chase Shiel (@chaseshiel), who brings conceptual custom-made footwear to life, to create the Matcha Air Jordan 1 sneakers in reflection of the Japanese ceremonial tea that has taken over hipster kitchens everywhere this year. Each pair of custom kicks (now sold out, unfortunately) retailed this weekend for $970 and will ship with an authentic bamboo tea whisk.
