Title: [IC] GMK Jacque$ | NOT FINAL FINAL

GMK Jacque$

[attachimg=1]

I am very excited to finally post the official Interest Check for GMK Jacque$.

There are many ways to design things and everyone does it in a different way. Some people sit down, grind it out and try to force out a design just for the sake of making something, although this usually doesn't yield the best results. I am usually on the side of being inspired by things that I encounter throughout my daily life.
This set design really found me instead of me finding it.

I saw a rich kids shoe.

GMK Jaque$ was born.


STORY:
I was browsing for sanitary pads for my mom at the Walgreens around the corner and this rich 17 year old hypebeast walked past with the hottest drip on his feet I ever saw! I was immediately inspired to make this keyset. I have been working on it for a few hours to get everything just right and I really think that this set just works. The moment I got the final color swatches chosen, I immediately knew it was one of my best so far. The colors used are all default GMK (CR, T9, 3C, BR1, RO2).

Base:

Renders

I will not disclose the sneakers that inspired this keyset for reasons that can't be justified. Please don't mention them in the comments section either. Those who know know. If you don't know then this keyset isn't for you!


IT'S LIT!!

The size of the legends bothers me more than the color scheme.

Can we get just three hiragana? Doesn't matter which ones, or where you put them.

Can we just skip past the meme'ory and say it's based on the Travis Scott AJ1?

Which in itself is a pretty meh design so far as sneakers go and translates roughly the same in terms of a keycap set.

Looks better as a shoe, but I don't know if that really means much here

Travis's only value in the sneaker game is how much his **** flips for if you can manage to cop for retail.

You should consider running this in ePBT. I'd 1000% cop

Great post!
Not even gonna lie, I'm actually kinda into it (although I can't really tell if you are joking about running it aswell, or not, but if you'd actually consider running this, I'd love for it to be a bit more "creamier"/true to the shoes + I agree, epbt, could actually work out pretty well for this!)

Considering adding some more tab accent keys so this could be a good addition.

Which in itself is a pretty meh design so far as sneakers go and translates roughly the same in terms of a keycap set.

Spoken like someone who also took an L on the SNKRS app...

I can't believe you've done this.

Simon has said new epbt is bad so I'm not even considering this as an option.

I sold 80% of my Nike and Jordan bits years ago (Only own a few AM1's and 90's now - Atmos Elephants, Patta Chloro's and Denim & Coords, 112's, OG 90 colourways). The majority of my collection now is Asics, Diadora and New Balance.

I wouldn't touch **** like Scott's or Yeezy's with a 10-foot pole.

Imagine a world... where it’s okay for someone else to like something that you don’t like...
