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 and waterproofing. It is painted by hand, so no two pairs are ever the same. What comes back to you is one of a kind.

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.
