I tried doing a search but i didnt really come up with too much on this subject, but i was wondering how do you stich up a pair of shoes such as if i want to replace the nike swoosh with a different type of leather/material. Is that possible to do and make it look good.
these are going to be my first customs. i will have all the correct equipment. shud i do the customizing on um beat up sneakers first or on my new af1s?
carbon fiber is way too brittle to attatch to a shoe best bet is getting faux CF that has more flex to ittry getting a shoe with a black sole and any other color stitchign around the midsole those stitches can be painted so its no big deal and if you want the ferrari horse embroidered on the heel youre gonna be in for a headache i would suggest getting it stenciled on but if youre determined to get it stitched youll have to find a place that embroiders leather/shoes
its going to be a pain in the ass with those checkers on that swoosh
so ive decided to do my own version in a white af1 mid. I saw the tutorial earlier in the thread on how to change the colors but, what paint is the best kind to use to get the most durable paint job on them?? ( i would like to wear them sometimes lol) Where should i go to get said paint??
what the hell you talking bout brutha?
nike didnt release those, those are customs done by Emanuelabor himself an active member of this forum and making a variation of his work is kind of a custom world no-no
i would suggest you get another idea
ok, i've read the whole thread and just want to clear up a few things.
1) could i use some older dunks, beat up, but not falling apart?
2) i don't want to change any fabric so could i just completly use paint, and if so i would want to use acrylic.
3) i would have to remove the old paint?
