Desp One showed off some new Puma customs at his Custmsnkr.com blog linked here. These Puma First Rounds start off with a simple orange color that acts as a good base for the rest of the designer’s efforts. The black Puma symbol and heel wrap works well against the brighter orange color.

The primary design element used by Desp One is a spray effect added throughout the shoe. Desp One splattered white, gray and black paint on the heel as well as the eyelets to add an organized chaos to these First Rounds.

These custom First Rounds are the second version of this design for Desp One. The first version of Desp One’s First Rounds featured a orange/gray colorway with a wild splattering effect similar to this shoe. While the differences are subtle between the two sneakers, I think Desp One got it right with a more subtle splatter pattern on the second version.
