Already Own the Pair? Ship It In and We'll Paint It

Some canvases are already yours. The pair you proposed in. The team shoe from a season that mattered. The AF1s that are perfectly broken in and perfectly plain. Our own-pair route exists for exactly this: ship us a clean pair, and the artists paint that.

The price is the painting alone — a flat published figure below the Signature price, because you already own the shoe. The process is otherwise identical: your brief, freehand work, layered curing, sealing, waterproofing, and the design retired the day it is finished.

Two honest caveats. First, we confirm the model with you on WhatsApp before you ship — some materials and coatings do not take paint honourably, and we would rather refuse a shoe than deliver a compromise. Second, ship the pair clean; paint bonds to leather, not to a season of dust.

A painted-new pair carries your story from day one. A painted-own pair carries it in both directions — the miles already walked and the design they earned. Some of the best commissions we have done stood on secondhand soles.
