As a new signature you might wanna incorporate some wings or sequins to get that genuine street look

Probably a winged teddy bear with animal print patterned sequins and bullet holes.

WOW! those PoQee customs are insane (and I mean that in a good way).

Are the tongues all custom made, or reworks of existing ones (except the one with the ears I expect)? and the base is the CT 80s I assume?

Either way, they look amazing! Mad props to you, Ben

[benji]

Thanks mate,
The shoes were white 80s.
The original tongue was taken out and was not used. All the tongues are hand made. 3 are foam with felt backing (as close to the original as possible), these are the Qee ones and the blue and orange ones. The others are grey nubuck with a polartec fleece backing and white tumbled leather with the same backing. Those two were lockstitched with an awl. All have velcro sewn in the bottom underside and are connected to velcro attached to a cotton panel which is glued and lockstitched under the edge of the shell toe. Not quite the same attachment as CTs as they have a two sided flap I believe. I bought some CT Century Lows just to check !!!
Good fun - took fucking ages LOL.

Madness Benji!

What a details, glow in the dark, all those tongues, the tag.

Certainly one of a kind!

[Sneakerphile]

HOLY SHIT BALLS!!!!!
Dude, those are fucking amazing. I am totally blown away by the details. Can't believe you made separate tongues too. Seriously epic mate, I am jealous.

[dj_wildthing]

I take my words back. These are not insane, they are BEYOND insane...LOL...

– that's just crazy regarding the tongues, mate. Unbelievable.



Also, looking at the pics, I just noticed that the shoes are roughly the same size as the Qee...
