The Kotaku readership may not be aware of the Nike Dunk customizing subculture that makes up a small portion of sneakerheads. But they will after seeing these expert level Katamari Damacy-styled Dunks.

Kotaku reader Steve has noticed that we don't shy away from posting pictures of video game-themed shoes. Or cakes. Or any internet flotsam and jetsam. Therefore, he's come to us to let his fellow readers know of his love for Katamari Damacy, painting on perfectly good Nike sneakers, and his girlfriend, the actual hardcore fan of the Prince of All Cosmos.

Classy stuff, Steve. Now get back to me on those Cho Aniki-custom Dunks. Just name your price.
