Awesome trainer-inspired art

published 21 November 2013

Sneakerheads, prepare to meet your new artistic crush.

UK artist Phil Robson (aka Filfury) has created a superb set of artwork drawing inspiration from classic trainer lines and sneaker silhouettes. Timeless footwear from the Air Jordan 4 Retro to the Adidas Originals Superstar have been split, blended and mashed to create skulls, insects and all manner of awesome shoe taxidermy.

You can purchase a print of Robson's work from Mrs Fury. That, or you can take a Stanley knife to your own hightops.

He started out life as a movie writer for numerous (now defunct) magazines and soon found himself online - editing a gaggle of gadget sites, including TechRadar, Digital Camera World and Tom's Guide UK. At Shortlist you'll find him mostly writing about movies and tech, so no change there then.
