Posted by freehandprofit on October 29, 2011 in Art, Mask365 | Leave a comment

The newest release from Freehand Profit and The Branding Wars is an exclusive for Star Wars Remix. Last month they featured the Sneakertrooper helmet (you may have seen it on Attack of the Blog, Playboy, MTVstyle, Juxtapoz, Gizmodo, Boing Boing, Hypebeast or The Herald Sun) and today we’re bringing you a piece made from a pair of Adidas “Darth Vader” Superstar IIs. This is the 12th mask in The Branding Wars series, most of which are gas masks reconstructed from a single pair of sneakers. Make sure you swing by Star Wars Remix for more and a chance to add this to your collection.
