Yasu Saegusa recently stopped by New York's 21 Mercer to try his hand at an Air Force 1 Bespoke design. Using a simple blocking scheme for his Bespoke, Yasu chose white leather for the toebox of the shoe, filling in the side panel and heel tab with aqua blue suede and wrapping the heel with an obsidian reptile textured material. Cork was used for the Swoosh and tongue badge, while perforated caramel leather works the inner liner. A golden strip is seen on the heel, leading into a white midsole. Everybody's favorite Air Force 1 feature, the gum rubber outsole, takes care of things below. The lace dubret reads "08292010," presumably acknowledging the date that this Bespoke design was created. What do you think of Yasu's Air Force 1?
