My kind of BTTF MAG project

[Jewan]

I read lot of forum pages, watched lot of pictures, made patterns mix and adjustements of official and similar nike mag.
After 4 month, here is my final beta test shoe.
I used foam (soft for tongue and shell, strong for ankle bukle and heel), T-shirts, velcro, contact cement, acrylic paint, plastidip (only for sole final coat), super glue, sewing machine, nail scissors, normal scissors, elastic strap, dremel, sand paper... I think that's all
Comments are welcome.
If some people are interested and patient, I'll try to make a tutorial (movie or pics compilation) and give patterns.

Here is a video 360 on my web page (you can see some of my creations) : https://www.facebook.com/midnowhereman/videos/1067645463265986/

So you made the whole lot except strap buckle?! Well I'm impressed! Looks great mate!

 

[Jewan]

Yes I bought elastic strap and add velcro on it. Thank you for the comment.

amazing work
so what did you make the soles out of?
are they cast rubber or just foam cutout? and shaped?

 

[Jewan]

Exactly, foam cutout and shpaded.
That kind of foam

See steps

 

[Jedifyfe]

very well done

 

[Jewan]

For information, estimate price : between 35 and 40€ for one pair (I don't know in US dollar, I'm french).

Nice work. I would very much like to see that tutorial if you make it.

 

[DragonGalvy]

Cool! Nice to see a differently coloured MAG out there! I suppose they are for display not able to wear?

 

[Jewan]

I walked with it but not for long time and just indoor. I made just one shoe, but when I will make a pair, I'll do "crash" test. I already say to you this one is pretty confortable.

Very cool. Looking forward to any tutorials you do especially how you got the fabric to form fit so good.

 

[Vormz]

Impressionnant!

I will make a tuto quick as I can. I would like video one but It will be longer than make a text with pics. I don't know yet but I work on it.

Look forward to it.

Look at the shape of this part of the mid-sole

Nailed it man.

Nice work!!

This is the best pair of homemade MAGs I've ever seen. I've you have the money you should think about a full upgrade with cavx's clear soles, cloneprops ankle buckle, and a whole light setup.

If he has replicated the 2011 MAG as close as I think he has, my currently clear soles won't actually fit as the V2 are quite a bit different from the 1989/2011 shoe both underneath and on the inside wings.

It would end up being a brand new sole project.

Well I think a little cutting could fix that. He could give you some dimensions of the areas under the shoe and you could suggest the size he needs.

I'd actually want templates and start fresh than try and mod my existing parts.
