This Sneaker Custom Combines the Virgil Abloh x Nike Air Jordan 1 and the Balenciaga Triple-S

Sorry, this one’s literally one-of-a-kind.

From the mind of sneaker designer @searleivy, our latest custom obsession is a Frankenstein beauty that combines two highly sought-after sneakers: the Virgil Abloh x Nike Air Jordan 1 and the Balenciaga Triple-S. For the custom, the designer explains to HYPEBEAST that he had to hollow out the footbed of the Triple-S soles in order to fit the AJ1 upper. The result is a perfectly complemented hybrid that boasts a classic red, black and white color combination. If we didn’t know any better, we would probably pray to the sneaker gods that this silhouette might one day become a reality.

You can see more images of the custom in the gallery above, modelled alongside a vintage Louis Vuitton Keepall 45 bag that has been decorated with custom patches.

To see more of the Balenciaga Triple-S, don’t forget to check out the latest release which sports accents of spring pink throughout.
