Sole Creations customized a pair of Nike Vandals for a client in Michigan who loves the Chicago White Sox. The result is the Chi-City Vandals, a pair of shoes that would make the biggest Carlos Quentin fan smile. I found these photos at the Sole Creations blog on Customsnkr.com linked here.

The designer mixed the Windy City’s environment with the White Sox motif without creating a clunky custom. The heel on the right shoe features the Chicago skyline at dusk complete with puffy clouds and vibrant colors. The left heel shows the same skyline setting against a white background to show the city’s love for the White Sox.

Sole Creations added the Sox logo to the toe box while writing out White Sox in front of each swoosh. The addition of another Sox logo just above the front of each swoosh is a bit cluttered but this minor issue is overcome by the White Sox player hitting a ball along the swoosh’s path. My favorite part of these custom Vandals is the addition of the client’s name on both heels with the “KAK KAK KAK” simulating the echoed sounds of PA announcer Gene Honda.
