Artistic Sole is a customizing business in the DC area. A husband & wife team - A.S. has joined the forces of the local sneaker community in hopes of helping change the area’s sneaker game.
In doing so, Artistic Sole seeks to apply some of the hottest tattoo-inspired art in sneaker customization (being as though one of the owners is a tattoo artist). Though we seek to do custom tattoo-inspired sneakers, we can do almost anythin you want (that looks cool) … and even if your idea isn’t cool … we’ll make it cool! POINT BLANK!
BaysiccDesigns is based in the Bay Area, California. We customize sneakers a little differently than everyone else.
We are just two guys that had an idea for our sisters’ birthday to give her some glitter shoes. Next thing you know everyone wants a pair. We really didnt customize shoes before but now we are really into it. Since so many people wanted them, we decided to expand and go online and now its hittin the streets everywhere. Some cant see themselves wearing glitter made shoes, while others “Go Crazy” over them.

Comment from us: Your recent Pumas are sick!!! Keep it up!
We recently opened Kixclusive.com, a new website that specializes in hard to find Nike, Jordan and Bathing Ape merchandise. With their being such an abundance of counterfeit merchandise on the net today, our mission was to mix a professional yet urban feel to the site. We are pleased with the results.
We have spent several months stockpiling inventory from around the globe to include many rare sneakers. Our inventory currently stands at over 100 styles, all 100% authentic of course. Furthermore, we have a relationship with Busy Work Shop in Japan to obtain large quantities of all new Bape releases. In addition, we are the first, and only, US based website to offer Bape Clothing goods.
We are looking to greatly expand our inventory in the next couple months, so stay tuned! Any suggestions or requests for future merchandise availability would be appreciated. Thanks!

Damn nice to see stores like this. HolyZapatos could run under the title “sneaker craft store”. Lots of customs and some streetart over there.
Chicago’s finest customs with lots of content above and beyon the cookie cutter custom sites. Fall clearance sale is now on with tons of SB’s and other goodies in the store and links to the HolyZapatos! eBay store.
Also check out holyzapatos.blogspot.com for all kinds of Chicago sneaker and art news.

Well what can I say. I started customizing sneakers half a year ago. I entered the Scandinavian Adicolor/Vice contest for fun (designing an Adidas Adicolor shoe on paper and maybe qualifying to the final top ten). So I qualified, went to the finals in Sweden, did what I came to do and I actually won. Then it was on.
A bit later I also qualified for the International Adicolor contest but unfortunately I didnt win. I got the 4th place, but it was fun joining. So now I make sneakers on a weekly basis. I sell them online, in sneakershops, in magazines and in excibitions. Im (ofcourse) also a graffitiwriter, a graphic designer, photographer, illustrator and a dj.
The name Johnny Jaywalker comes is really my dj name. JJ just turned in to my artist name in a way. (we are a dj-trio from Norway called the Jaywalkers. (which is Johnny Jaywalker from the Johnny Walker whisky + Jacob the Jaywalker from Jacob The Jewler & Luke Jaywalker from Luke skywalker)) check out www.thejaywalkers.blogspot.com.

Sneakerzion.com is open since December, 2005. Lionel and I run the website. Basically, we started doing this because we’re sneaker addicts and basketball freaks.
We wanted to do something related with our passions we really love what we do. We’re french, respectively 28 years old for Lionel and 27 for me. In France, the sneaker culture is getting more and more important but we think we’re really the first french sneaker website to start selling exclusively online.
Sneakerzion has a pretty nice design. Just check. I guess you will agree.

I have been an artist since I could walk. Working with everything from clay, to drawing, to musical instruments and film, I’ve always been into the creative process and “making things”.
I got into shoes years ago and soon began applying my art to my love of kicks. I have some projects coming up that I am excited about. In the future, I hope to transform my artwork into a tool for social change by expressing my views through various forms, paticularly shoes and clothing.
ROCK’ N’ - brand, created to personalize Sneakers that closely resemble who will wear it! The project is born from the idea of LEO and the creativity of THE FRANZ, thanks to the collaboration of FRANZ in the project, it is given back possible the accomplishment of the Personalization of Sneakers.
Our project initiates with the desire to convert a regular shoe to a collection item, making it important with our wise dowers and innovations, handmade with materials and inks that make Sneakers a unique product.
Lately we realized a shoe on commission, for the presentation in Italy of the line of apparel of Spike Lee signed “40 Acres and Amule” together to “Marc Ecko”.
We hold to state ourselves than we realize alone sneakers decorated to hand. We realize our products to Milan in Italy and send our customers all over the world. If you other desires information, pray to contact you myself. hello to soon you write if desires of the images
