Creativity is King

We are excited to post the latest JGoods creation, the Nike Dunk High SB “Mayer Hawthorne”. These are 1 of 1′s for Mayer Hawthorne himself.

The shoes were designed to coincide with Mayer’s impeccable retro styling as he is most often seen in classic suits, vintage eye glasses and heat on his feet. For the base shoe, we chose the Nike Dunk High Pro SB Creed in a white / khaki / and light stone colorway. The shoes feature color changes to the swoosh and toe box as well as an intricate plaid pattern in earth tones over the heel panel. And just so there isn’t any confusion as to who these were made for, the Mayer Hawthorne logo was applied to the shoe’s rear quarter. The sneakers were packaged in a tweed box with a viewing window and Mayer Hawthorn’s logo screened on the top. As always, the shoes were hand-painted by JGoods himself and will never be reproduced again.

Everything from the development to the presentation of the shoes has been chronicled in this video with music captured from his concert at First Ave in Minneapolis on April 4th.

And for those willing to believe anything is possible, be grateful to have Mayer Hawthorne on the scene. It’s not just throwback music anymore – this revival is all about progression.
