Order Received
Your order has been received, and we're getting ready to start your custom sneakers.
Preperation
The sneakers are carefully prepped using 100% acetone to remove the factory finish. This ensures a clean base for painting.
Painting
The shoes are primed and hand-painted using a variety of palettes and colors to achieve the perfect design. Each shoe takes approximately 3-6 hours to complete, with meticulous attention to detail.
Dry & Protection
After each layer of paint is applied, the shoes undergo a thorough drying process to ensure a smooth, even finish. Once the painting is complete, a factory-grade protective coating is added, making the design long-lasting and resistant to weather and wear.
Final Inspection & Shipping
Each pair is carefully inspected to ensure top quality, then packaged with care so it arrives in excellent condition.
