Chapel Hill Air Force Ones





D@ Prince Customs created custom Air Force Ones last year based on school colors from the University of North Carolina. After a year of sharpening his artistic skills, D@ Prince took another stab at turning Air Force Ones into a tribute to the UNC Tar Heels. I found these photos and information on these shoes at D@ Prince’s latest Nike Talk post linked here.

The Chapel Hill Air Force Ones were created for one of D@ Prince’s top clients and show the designer’s artistic evolution. On the left shoe, D@ Prince painted a perfect picture of Rameses the UNC mascot. The right shoe has the NC logo set behind a white and Tar Heel blue checkered swoosh. D@ Prince applied Tar Heel blue and white checkers in the middle panels as well as the Nike swooshes to complete the UNC theme.

D@ Prince topped off the Chapel Hill Air Force Ones with Tar Heel blue footprints running around both shoes. While the designer did a nice job on his last pair of UNC customs, the Chapel Hill AF1s show sophisticated techniques and vision from D@ Prince. From the fine details on Rameses’ school sweater to the flawless work done on the checkered middle panels, D@ Prince showed that he has arrived as a sneaker artist.
