Available exclusively at boutiques that carry the DC Life Collection, Nash unleashes his first collaborative effort ever. Using the DC Monterey as a base, Nash twisted, tore, and ripped the shoe apart, only to stitch it back together again, adding a custom crepe bottom. It’s Frankenstein meets mad scientist meets an old English gentleman inspiration. Above all, it’s English wildfowler (duck hunter) meets mature street wear. The old English wildfowler aspect sees the use of luxury, hard-wearing fabrics, with the incorporation of earth colors. Paisley print was brought to the lining to add to the overall air of sophistication. The sneaker is already available in the US and will launch in Europe in November.

Here below you can check out a video about the making of the sneaker.

More detailed images of the DC x Nash Monterey sneaker follow after the jump.

The V&A Museum in London have just released a nice little film of Nash at work on his customs as part of their current ‘Fashion V Sport’ exhibition, that we reported about earlier already.

“Alex Nash customises shoes on a different level to most customisers. Using a combination of appliqué, trinkets, logos, paint and re-stitching, Alex transforms the everyday sneaker into something unique and special.”

A great video of the artist at work, so make sure to check it out here above.

He has made some amazing works for the exhibition in Barcelona. Have a look at the video below to get an idea!

A few weeks ago we showed you the first work by Nash that we came across, it was a Visvim FBT with a Nike 360 sole and the outcome was really impressive.
Now he presents a new custom bike seat made out of a recent Nike x Atmos Freetrail 5.0 collaboration. Once again we have to say, that the quality of these customs looks great. When the custom is so good that it inspires a potential real product, then the designer has done something right. The seat was made for an upcoming “We The People” BMX exhibition. Pics via Bond.

This is definitely one of the hottest bike seats we have ever seen. Let’s hope it’s also comfortable. Check out more pics after the jump.
