Designer Yassir Rais showed off his latest custom Dunks at the Customsnkr.com blog post linked here. Rais is a relatively new artist who created his first pair of customs at the beginning of 2008. His “Under Construction” Nike Dunks are pretty impressive for a designer with a few projects under his belt.
The bottom half of the Dunks feature a brick-and-mortar design while the top half is a gray concrete wall. While Rais may have been creating a simple pair of custom sneakers, the symbolism is quite clear. The designer’s skills are being built slowly like the brick wall. Yassir Rais is showing us that he has great self-awareness about his growing skills as a custom artist through the mixture of a unfinished brick wall with a cracked concrete surface.
Rais says these Dunks are available for sale; if you are interested, you can contact the designer at yassirrais3@hotmail.com. The “Under Construction” Dunks look great and I plan on writing up the rest of his collection soon to showcase this rising star in the world of custom sneakers.
