808s And Heartbreak Chuck Taylors

Emmanuelabor created the 808s & Heartbreak Chuck Taylors awhile ago but just got around to posting these kicks to the Nike Talk thread linked sellshoemall.com. While Emmanuelabor is known for his hot Nike customs, he decided to go with a different sneaker to honor Kanye West’s album. The 808s & Heartbreak Shoes Chuck Taylors mix simple design with a novel approach to inserting the single red heart on the album cover.

The designer’s primary pattern for these Chucks came from the suit worn by Kanye West when supporting the album. You can see in the photo at the bottom of this post that the suit has a simple gray pattern with a broken heart on the lapel. Emmanuelabor did a great job stitching and forming this pattern to the Heartbreakf Chuck Taylors.

Emmanuelabor did not use fabric or paint to create the red heart on the inside of both shoes. The designer cut and stitched red balloons into a heart-shaped space in the fabric to create the right texture. Emmanuelabor’s experiment with a new technique on a classic shoe was successful, resulting in a pair of Heartbreakf Chuck Taylors Shoes that properly celebrate Kanye West’s work.
