How To Customize Sneakers

Ever wanted to customize some sneakers yourself? Austin based art collective Mofoz Visualz has put up some very insightful information on their customizing process. Mofoz takes you through the steps of customizing the classic Nike Air Force Ones for Austin based emcee, Phranchyze.

Marc from Mofoz:

I got real interested in sneaker customizing after I saw an interesting art show put on by Houston graff legends Aerosol Warfare. They had an art show that compiled custom kicks (not wearable) done by many of the world’s top graffiti writers. I was blown away with how much a little paint and know how could transform every day stompers to one of a kind pieces of art.

So I did a little research and learned the basics of how to paint a wearable pair of custom kicks …20 or 30 plus pairs later, the rest is history.

Visit the Mofoz blog, pick up a few tips and post up some pictures of what you come up with.
