The Perfect gift
One-of-one sneaker customs built around who they are, what they’re into and the story you want the gift to tell. For the person you can't just buy anything for.
What makes it different?
You give me the person, the story and the details that matter. I take that and build a custom around their story. Each piece is created by hand using pyrography, paint and other methods/techniques to make something personal, and original. It’s still a pair of sneakers, but becomes much more than "JUST" a pair of sneakers.
What's Pyrography?
py·rog·ra·phy pīˈrägrəfē
The art or process of producing designs or pictures (as on wood or leather) by burning or scorching with hot instruments - (Merriam Webster)
Pyrography is a technique that has become my signature over the years. it adds a level of permanence and texturization that allows the shoe and its design to be interacted with differently, to be experienced differently.

KAWS and Takashi Murakami are two of my favorite artists. While they've done many collabs, this is my take thru my medium. Designs are burned into the shoes using, you guessed it, pyrography techniques.
The Perfect Gift - $550
One pair. One person. One design made specifically for them.
You give me the person, the story, and the details that matter. I turn that into a one-of-one sneaker custom using my signature pyrography process, along with other techniques that the design requires.
