As head of the Nike Innovation Kitchen, you can imagine Chi McBride diving into a vault full of shoes some people would kill for and rolling around with a huge grin on his face. However, it would appear that he actually does something slightly more productive with the contents of the vaults he has access to.

This hybrid marries the DUNKLE and the Nike Air Force 1. Keeping true to the Nike Dunk’s original silhouette, McBride has kept the upper the same but added the chunky Nike Air Force 1 sole.

But before you get too excited, this shoe is 1 of 1. He made it for himself. Because he can. Don’t try and say you wouldn’t do the same.
