The latest Nike custom from Evolved Footwear is dubbed Black Ice. These customs truly tell a story of night and day with an unwieldy design in the light hiding a cool gimmick only available in the dark. I am not a huge fan of what Evolved Footwear did to these custom Nikes including black patent leather on the toe box. The mixture of patterns from black leather to the black/ocean blue background and silver swoosh does not come together into a cohesive look.

I think Black Ice is a great novelty shoe because of the glow-in-the-dark outsole pictured below. Evolved Footwear does a good job promoting this shoe with this photo which shows the bright glowing outsole set against a black background. I admire the effort by Evolved Footwear to create a unique custom shoe but it misses the mark in terms of a wearable shoe.
