Obama Force One By Jimm Lasser

highsnobiety - Obama Force One By Jimm Lasser
Yesterday artist Jimm Lasser opened his exhibition in New York, with Obama being the theme of the exhibition. The Obama Force One is one of the most interesting pieces exhibited. The Air Force 1 got a make-over by the artist with graphics engraved into the outer sole.
The left shoe reads "A Black Man Runs And A Nation Is Behing Him" and the right shoe features Barack Obama himself, who is also featured on the inner sole.
If you have the chance, make sure to check out the exhibition
T Y S O N S P A C E

More images of the sneaker follow after the jump.
