The work of a shoe customizer not only requires an abundance of creativity to reimagine a silhouette into something better than the original, but also a deft hand to render those visions in the flesh.

Check out the ROKIT x The Shoe Surgeon “Off The Court” sneakers online here, and don’t miss this look at his pop-up at Nice Kicks’ new Downtown LA store.
