With technology being at the forefront of today’s culture and images being shared at the click of a button, it’s not unfathomable to believe that you could garner\u00a0the attention of a billion-dollar corporation. This notion couldn’t have been more evident for SolesBySir,<\/strong> as the Miami-based\u00a0artist recently discovered Nike’s<\/strong> displeasure of his custom work for NFL<\/a> players. SolesBySir’s elaborate clientele includes the likes of\u00a0Reggie Bush, DeSean Jackson and Dez Bryant<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The aforementioned artist took to his Instagram page on Thursday afternoon to showcase a letter stating Nike’s displeasure with his artistic rendering’s of the iconic swoosh models. Within the letter, Nike proclaims: “Nike views third-party customization (or post-embellishment) of Nike footwear to be a violation of the Contract, triggering Nike’s right to terminate the Contract”<\/em>. Going forward, it’ll be interesting to witness how things develop considering custom cleats are becoming a mainstay within the NFL.<\/p>\n
