Paul Webb DSGN Journal - Nike Blazer Pentium 1.0 01

A junk artist by the name of Gabriel Dishaw cre­ated these size 9 1/2 Intel-themed circuit-board sneak­ers as a kind of homage to his favorite sneakers.

Of course, you wouldn’t wear these [highly uncom­fort­able, I imagine].

These weigh about 15 pounds and this project took Gabriel three weeks to com­plete. More pics?

There are also pic­tures of a fan­tas­ti­cally made car­ry­ing case for these on Gabriel’s site.
