STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE TO SNEAKER CUSTOMIZATION BY MACHE CUSTOMS

While most of you probably found this blog through my custom sneaker videos and tutorials, it’s been a while since I have dipped my toes in that water. Now that football season is back around I am painting shoes again (Sundays I wake up early and paint and watch football alllll day), you’ll surely see some new work - and old work I haven’t shown yet - come out of my corner. But while I have been gone a lot has changed about the sneaker world.

One of the biggest things is the introduction of blog coverage, and when that happened a lot of non-customizers got a lot of attention. Luckily, the one guy who got the most attention is Dan Gamache of Mache Customs. He is a beast with a brush and the blogs have been eating his work up. Complex recently asked him to go through the steps to sneaker customization, and while it’s very beginner-level in its complexity (no pun intended), it’s a great start for anyone wanting to try their hand at this complicated art form.
