I was lucky enough to compete in the 9th ever Ace of Customs competition at Sneakercon Cleveland. The competition, sponsored by Sprite, had a Zero is Everything theme. I competed against @hippieneal and @_theheyyman_ - both of who put out some fantastic work. My interpretation of the theme was "Zero Inhibition", which is the equivalent of freedom and liberation. In 5 hours, I hand painted this LeBron 13, complete with painted outsoles, eagle graphics, dream catcher image, and Sprite branding.
I walked away with the win and became the Ace of Customs in the end. Check out the video above!
