What if Thanos had a huge love for sneakers? What if Michael Jordan captured the Infinity Gaunlet in his prime? Which iconic Jordan 1 colorway would look best in some Avengers gear? These are questions you would never be able to answer, until now. Thankfully, artists Freehand Profit and Boss Logic were able to do the impossible, creating an insane Jordan 1 Infinity Guanlet that has been blowing up on social media. StockX hit up Freehand Profit for a quick interview to discuss his version of the most powerful item in the Marvel Universe.

1.) What sneakers / materials did you use to build this?
I opted to use the Chicago 1.5s to ease the pain. The soles are actually from Satin 1s, leftovers from a recently completed mask.
2.) How long did it take to make?
It took about 6 weeks, most of that time was modeling, 3D printing and adding Swarovski crystals to the oversized ring on the back of the hand.
3.) What has it been like seeing the reactions to the infinity gauntlet?
It’s always nice to see the impact hard work can have. @bosslogic and I have been looking forward to collaborating for a while now so we knew it had to be special.
