Jake Danklefs, known to many in the business as Dank Customs, has made a name for himself with his custom sneaker work of deconstruction and reconstruction of sneakers that matches the quality and execution of factory production. Over the years Jake has created some memorable hybrids by giving new life to two silhouettes by swapping the midsole/outsole tooling with a different upper.
While Father’s Day was just last month (where we interviewed the father of the dad shoe), Jake has pumped up the level of Air for the Nike Air Monarch with this creation – the Nike Air Monarch Max 90.
Coming in every dad’s favorite color scheme of white leather and navy, these are perfect for the Sunday shopper whether he’s working the bar-b-que out back, styling with a worn in pair of wranglers, or needing to speak to the manager at Chili’s about the cold plate of ribs that were just delivered to the table.
