About the service
I'm a sneaker customization artist who transforms ordinary or worn sneakers into one-of-a-kind art objects that no one else will have. Send your pair — leather, suede, or fabric — or I'll help you find the right blank for your envisioned design. I paint with professional leather paints and acrylic that don't crack or peel when the material bends.
The work begins with a brief discussion: references, palette, favorite characters, portraits, logos, abstract patterns, or text. First, I apply a sketch in chalk directly on the shoe so you can approve the composition before the first coat of paint goes on. Then the design is developed in layers — shadows, gradients, and fine lines are executed by hand with thin brushes. I cover each finished pair with two coats of elastic acrylic varnish, which protects the painting from rain, scratches, and everyday wear.
The service includes: consultation and composition sketch, minor revisions before painting starts with no limits, painting both sneakers in a unified style (or intentionally different if that's your vision), protective coating, and care recommendations for the painted design. At key stages I send photos of the process so you can see how the work is progressing.
Turnaround is usually one to two weeks depending on design complexity — a simple logo replacement is faster than a full portrait or landscape on both pairs. My portfolio includes sneakers with anime characters, memorable portrait paintings, high-tops in the style of favorite bands, custom Vans with floral patterns, and corporate branding orders for branded merchandise. I ship in the original box with extra protective packaging, and pickup at a personal meeting is also available.
If you have an idea, even a rough one, write with a photo of the shoe and inspiration examples. I'll send back a concept sketch and exact pricing before starting work, so there are no surprises.
