Rainbow Nike Dunks
January 8, 2009
Yassir Rais posted this photo of his latest custom Nike Dunks at his Customsnkr.com blog linked here. The designer will be posting additional photos soon but this first peek at the Rainbow Nike Dunks looks good. We have seen a lot of rainbow-inspired Nikes on MyAirShoes but these Dunks approach the rainbow from a new angle.
Instead of creating a kaleidoscope effect of every color on the rainbow, Yassir Rais relied on a more restrained depiction of the rainbow. The designer started with lighter colors just above the outsole including light blue and orange. These colors fade gradually as your eye moves to the eyelets and Nike swoosh, eventually giving way to deep red and indigo. The middle panel is kept white to divide one end of the rainbow from the other.
Yassir Rais was successful in creating subtle color changes on the Rainbow Nike Dunks through detailed fading. While I would have been tempted to overrun the toe box with blue paint, his commitment to matching the plain middle panel with the toe box shows that he is a skilled sneaker artist. The Rainbow Nike Dunks may not feature every color in the rainbow but it shows the progression from light to dark in a simple but stylish way.
