The NBA season is set to resume later this month, so it's time to get your basketball customs ready for the playoffs.

Sponsored artist @truebluecustoms designed these custom Jordan 4s dedicated to Kobe and the Lakers. The customs feature the signature Lakers purple and gold color scheme and Kobe's numbers, 8 and 24, printed across the tongues and ankle collars.

Sonic Vans

For this last pair, sponsored artist @bbizon threw it back to a childhood classic.

These handpainted Sonic-themed Vans feature a solid blue base, Sega branding, a portrait of Sonic himself, and a Vans stripe repurposed to represent the classic Green Hill Zone from the game.
