I might just end up caving and buying converse if no one has any other suggestions.

What is the allstar logo on the side put on with? Is it a patch or printed on or what? That's my least favorite part of the shoe.

Not a lot of clothing (working in that direction, not confident enough with those projects to try marketing them yet,) but a good deal of leather work, including footwear.

The whole idea behind this project is to make a personal shoe with every order, so if you're open to the idea then we can communicate via email until we've got a design you're happy with, and then I can quote you on it. You don't have to invest anything from the start since if you don't want the shoe when I'm done I can easily sell it to someone else.

Picture somewhat related.

I've never made an upper entirely out of canvas, actually, but it's a relatively cheap material and easy enough to work with. Lets say, combination leather and rubber sole, canvas upper, and high gauge nylon stitching. I could probably ball-park it at $110 (not including shipping), give or take a small amount depending on what hardware you want.

It's your call of course. Like I said, we can work it out so you don't have to decide if you actually want them until I'm done and you can see plenty of pictures of the finished product. If you don't want them in the end, then I can sell them to someone else.

>>6292072
I imagine it would look fine. I think a lot of the idea behind the Satur trainers is to put focus on texture over colour, but as long as you're keeping it monochrome I don't think you're losing anything. Plus, as others have said, it's your shoe to do whatever with.

Yeah that's what I ended up doing. I need six foot long shoelaces.

It seems like every shoelace online is at least two millimeters wider than my current pair. The material looks very different as well.

Is there no place online for premium shoelaces?

is there a cheaper/low end market for them?

>> No.6292302

Hey OP we have been over this several times and the usual consensus is as follows:

CDG play is shit tier as you are paying the extra money for the logo not quality. Refer to several troll threads where people pretended they bought cdg plays and came onto /fa/ asking how to remove the heart back when they came around.

Black converse are high school tier. Literally, so many high schoolers by mall rat shit in black, including vans.

That being said look at wings + horns sneakers, they are near your price range give or take $100 most likely give. save up.
