Yujia Hu Edible Sneaker Shoe Shi 01
We’ve seen birthday cakes disguised as favorite Air Jordan retros and collaborations paying tribute to particular cities’ favorite cuisine, but we’ve never seen something quite like this. Milan-based sushi chef Yujia Hu has taken his love of sneaker culture to a new level, creating bite-sized arrangements of fresh fish in the form of his favorite must-have models of the moment. From the Supreme x Nike Air More Uptempo to the Air Jordan 1, he’s created an eclectic range of sneakers as art with Swoosh branding made from black strands of seaweed. Check out some of our favorite sushi pieces below and for more of Yujia Hu’s unique edible homages to his favorite sneakers, follow him on Instagram. In addition, prints of the “Shoe-shi” are available for purchase on the HUM online art gallery.
