Mark ‘Cartoon’ Machado, a highly influential tattoo and graffiti artist known for his distinctive fine line technique, joined forces with Nike in the mid-2000s to create a captivating collection of Air Force 1 designs that pay homage to the vibrant city of Los Angeles. One of his remarkable collaborations is the 2017 Mister Cartoon x Cortez 'White Gum' edition, featuring a sleek white leather upper accentuated by an elegantly embroidered cursive ‘Cortez’ on the side walls. Injecting a burst of color, the shoe boasts a striking red Nike flag and lavish gold upper eyelets. Additionally, the design is adorned with a commemorative 45th anniversary tag on the tongue and a personalized CTOONS lace deubré. Ensuring optimum grip and durability, the shoe is equipped with a gum rubber outsole. This masterpiece effortlessly combines Machado's artistic finesse with Nike's iconic sneaker silhouette, resulting in a truly exceptional and visually captivating creation.
