As if there weren't enough sneaker releases to keep track of already. Not content to settle for what brands put out, many would-be sneaker designers have taken it upon themselves to rework classic silhouettes in either equally classic colorways that just never found their way to that particular sneaker, or in all-new colorways that the companies themselves haven't even considered. And what's amazing is, even in a world where a new hyped-up sneaker drops every weekend, these Tinkers in the making manage to turn out heat of their own on a regular basis. Check out 50 Awesome Photoshopped Sneakers We Wish Really Existed and let us know in the comments which ones you'd be willing to line up for.

Nike LeBron X "Graffiti"

Paying homage to earlier models in a sig line is almost always a good look. The "Graffiti" LeBron X is exactly that.

Nike LeBron VIII "Chaos"

Um, Clark you seeing this?

Air Jordan XX8 "Grizz Camo"

Created By: FWPS

The XX8 is a blank canvas, which means most people would screw it up. We'd take these Grizzlies joints anyday.

Oregon has become the school of choice for ridiculously limited colorways. Why not the Jordan V next?

Nike LeBron XI "112 Pack"
