Air Jordan 1 Gogeta SS4, the spectacular Dragon Ball-inspired Nike trainers
The fusion between Goku and Vegeta, which first appeared in the Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn! movie, gives rise to Gogeta. This Saiyan became the star of a custom Nike search shoe, the Air search Jordan 1 Gogeta SS4.
They were created by Puerto Rican designer Mariano Rios, whose Instagram account is called Mariano Customs. The Puerto Rican artist focuses on customising Swoosh trainer models, with spectacular results that we can see on his social networks.
He has almost 8,800 followers, with only 72 posts, and has worked with show business figures such as Colombian reggaeton artist J Balvin.
The Air search Jordan 1 Gogeta SS4 were released in 2019, hand painted by Mariano Rios, with fusion colours like orange, phosphorescent yellow, purple, grey, white and blue.
It has a special touch in the Nike search Swoosh, in the shape of lightning bolts.
“Deconstruction / customisation,” described the Puerto Rican designer. “I loved making this pair, as we not only painted it, but also deconstructed some parts to give it that ‘Off-White’ concept.”
Here’s a look at the Air search Jordan 1 Gogeta SS4, created by artist Mariano Rios. What do you think of them?
The story of Gogeta, the fusion between Goku and Vegeta in Dragon Ball
As we said at the beginning, Gogeta is the result of the fusion of Goku and Vegeta, after performing the dance of the shapeshifters. He is Vegetto’s counterpart, his Pothala fusion.
In the main story, he appeared in the Dragon Ball Super: Broly movie. However, as mentioned above, he first appeared in Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn, all from the mind of the great Akira Toriyama.
The character wears the Metamoran warrior’s signature jacket, greenish-gold around the shoulders and neck, and the rest of the jacket is black.
Gogeta is born to fight Janemba, but due to his limited appearances, it is not known if his personality has Goku’s sense of justice and Vegeta’s seriousness, or if he is truly unique, as explained by the folks at Dragon Ball Wiki Hispano.
