Grotesk and Case Studyo released the third installment of its '6ft 6in' lamp. The newest version is rocking black and red Air Jordan 1s.
With only 23 examples being produced, these are a hot commodity for any man-cave. The wooden “shoes” are hand-painted, detailed AJ 1s and even have their own laces. The sneaker lamp is supported by two string bean legs.
Because of the limited amount lamps being produced, the creators are able to personalize each one. Each lamp comes with its own screen printed wooden “shoe” box signed and numbered by Grotesk. The box says, “I don’t know where I am going. But I am on my way.” It’s a cool keepsake and can function as a stand, giving this 30-inch lamp a little more vertical.
