If you're reading this, we're just trying to make birthdays great again. Now that you found the box, lets talk about it and whats inside of it.
Our buddy Nelson's birthday is coming up, and he asked for a custom request. Since it was for his birthday, we found it fitting to ice out his box with ice cream and sprinkles to celebrate! This box took 4 days to create.
Whats inside???
Nelson requested for a 1 of 1 custom using a reverse Shattered Backboard 1 as the base shoe. Its tough taking a brand new, deadstock pair of reverse SBBs and putting a knife to them, but its for a good cause. So here is his vision…
First we deconstructed the Jordan 1 to simulate the Off White Chicago 1s. Once the shoes were broken down, we moved on to painting the shoes.
We took one shoe and color blocked it to look like the Shattered Backboard 1. We added the Off White Stencil pack (available here: Off White Stencil Pack ) to blend a Shattered Backboard and an Off White custom.
Now that 1 shoe was complete, we had to finish the other. Like the recent Top 3 series, we decided to switch up the toebox color and give the right shoe a completely different, but matching type of vibe. This side also used the Off White stencil pack, but we changed the colorway and laces to look like a completely different shoe. We loved the cream toe so we left the buttery leather as is and simply added some details. The objective was to make 2 shoes look so independent of one another, but blend so well next to one another.
Once the colorways were solidified, we began to define both shoes by detailing them out. Nelson wanted a cartoon sketch style look as we did on the last pair of shoes, so sketch is what he got. Exaggerated swooshes embellish the outside uppers and are tapered off with a lightning bolt look. This is where we take the initiative to come up with something truly special for our clients. Most customizers would be content with the work they have put in at this point. But our client deserves something that he can not only wear, but sentimentally be fond of. Something he can appreciate. This is where smaller details like custom tongue tags, “Detach Before Flexing” hangtag, and custom NOS buttons really count.
Do you remember the first time you were really amped when you got a pair of shoes you really wanted? Think about it, truly give it some thought. How old were you?
Where were you and what was the pair of shoes? Mine were the Karl Malone L.A. Gear Catapults.
That's the feeling that we aim to fulfill. Hope we hit the mark for you Nelson and Happy Birthday brother. “Make Birthdays Great Again”.
This pair is a 1 of 1 custom and will not be replicated. If you would like to create your own art, click below to purchase the Off White stencil pack we used and make your own wearable sneaker art: Off White Stencil Pack

Introducing the Jordan 1 High GD in 5 colorways!
We will contact you after purchase to get your size and color you would like. Please “ADD TO CART” and check out with a phone number and email address that is accessible to you.
Featuring custom dyed sherpa fabric to resemble bears fur combined with rich leather (or imported Italian suede), these custom shoes are created from the ground up.
They are a full reconstruction which can take several weeks to create.
We will only make a limited number of these customs.
We will be creating 5 different colorways
– Pink Bear
– Blue Bear
– Orange Bear
– Yellow Bear
– Green Bear
All of the customs will be made as a Jordan 1 High to resemble the highly sought after Nike SB Dunk Lows pictured (the 3 SB Dunk lows were only made in yellow, green and orange as shown on this page. We will remake these 3 in our own version along with our own versions of the blue and pink bears). Please note that artistically we will put our spin on this rendition and may change some colors like threads or other minor details, but they will be created in the same manner as the Pink Bear Jordan 1s we have pictured.
We are selling a customization service. Within the cost of the service, we will source the appropriate shoe size ordered. It is important to keep in mind that the sole may not be exactly the same color as the SB Dunk low soles pictured, but we will try our best to source the closest sole color that we can find. If the sole color is not close to the ones resembling the SB Dunk low, we will contact you to advise and find an alternate color sole. It is up to the discretion of Feelgood Threads to find the best matching soles for your project.
We do not offer refunds or exchanges, all sales on made to order shoes are final. Turnaround time is 4-6 weeks from when the shoes are received. Expedited orders are available for an additional fee.
Please email [email protected] for rush delivery or any questions in regards to your order.
