r/CustomShoes

I was lucky enough to grab a pair of Nike’s new 3D-printed shoes last week. As cool as they were, a solid black shoe just wasn’t really my style.
I decided to break out my new KixKote paints for the first time and turn them into a galaxy-inspired custom. Painting on a 3D-printed surface was definitely a challenge for an amateur like me, but that’s part of the fun—trying new techniques and pushing myself to get better.
I’m really happy with how they turned out. Always learning, always creating.

Just a little something I made.

I saw these and I had to have them. But now I want you guys to give them a good name

Also peep the price! I saw these online for $120 the official puma site

Hii I’m going to this place to customize my Air Force ones tomorrow. They were supposed to be J Cole inspired because I’m going to his concert in July but I feel like these designs are boring. The first ones aren’t terrible but the second ones are so boring and I know no one would know they are J Cole inspired. I had these sketches ready and was picking between them but I feel like they are kinda boring... Does anyone have any ideas of what I could do on the shoes??

Edit: the place I’m going to was pretty expensive and we paid for like a 3 hour session. The shoes I made I feel like I could just do at home in like an hour. We also paid for like shoelaces and charms if we want them so I feel like I should do something less basic. Even if it’s not J Cole inspired that’s okay I just want something different and cool!

First time customising shoes (for my partner).

There are a few places the leather dye (as apposed to the leather paint I believe) has leached onto areas I’d like to correct back to white (first two photos shows on leather and on rubber) is there anything I can use to achieve that?

Additionally, in the areas I’ve tried to paint white leather paint over coloured leather dye (regrets) the colours have leached through to the white so wondering if there’s anyway to top that with a white or product that won’t leach? (Third photo)

I’m using all angelus products for this so far.

Thanks for your help!
