Custom Shoes
No matter which shoes you choose to customize, we love turning your sneaker ideas into reality. Whether it’s basic logo stencils or shoes reflecting your passions, we’re here to support you through every step. We offer a wide range of customization options to match your unique vision.
Just What Can We Do with A Shoe?
Our shoe customization options include hand-painting, stenciling, heat-pressing, sewing, laser engraving tags and swooshes, bedazzling, adding charms, dyeing laces, incorporating unique leather details, attaching buttons, airbrushing fades and ombre effects, creating paint splatters, and precisely matching colors. Despite this extensive list, we continually experiment with new techniques and additional customization options to discover what works best.
Different Shoe Stages
Every person’s story is unique, and their shoes should reflect that. To accommodate this, we developed a system that distinguishes each shoe by its customization level. This system also provides information on the price range and estimated project duration. The stages are categorized as Premium, VIP, Luxury, and Prestige.
Below, you’ll find examples and descriptions of each stage.
Premium Shoes
Premium Shoes require the shortest production time and are the most cost-effective. They typically feature one to two painted areas, a single stencil (usually a logo), and/or a customized tag on the tongue. These shoes are perfect for large corporate orders.
VIP Shoes
VIP Shoes are one step above Premium Shoes in design and price, featuring two to four painted areas, additional stencils, a laser-engraved swoosh with pattern, airbrushed fades, and/or a tongue tag. They are also ideal for large corporate orders, just like Premium shoes.
Luxury Shoes
Luxury Shoes offer greater creative freedom, enabling the use of more specialized materials and longer production times. These shoes can feature intricate paintwork, unique leather designs, airbrushed fades or ombre effects, charms, and embellishments like bedazzling. While suitable for corporate orders, they are generally better for small, individual orders.
Prestige Shoes
Prestige Shoes represent our top-tier quality, involving the most detailed craftsmanship. We collaborate closely with clients to realize their vision, offering limitless customization options such as stencils, multiple airbrushed sections with fades and ombres, custom-engraved leather, dyed laces, beads, buttons, charms, and more. Due to their intricate design, these shoes require several days to weeks to produce. They are ideal for personalized orders and are not intended for corporate use.
