This nicely presented book gives a brief history of sneaker culture and background to customising sneakers, before diving in to the how to. It places the art in a cultural context. the instructions are clear, the pictures are pretty and the example are inspiring.

I'm not sure why I requested this book in the first place, since I'm not a fan of brand name sneakers (not as a fashion thing, but in the running world). Despite this i found this book educative, pretty and a tiny bit inspiring, even though I won't be painting my own sneakers anytime soon.

Who knew that one could customize trainers so easily! Definitely a skill that will involve practice and patience but the techniques outlined in the book will help

This is a great resource for anyone curious about how to customize their shoes. It gives details on what supplies to use, the pros and cons of using leather, faux, and canvas materials, and useful instructions.

First of all, many thanks to Netgalley for the ARC granted to me. I loved the book, since I am a great fan of fashion style content and also love skeakers, I find it interesting to read a book about personalization skills and cues for everyone to do it.

The author did a wonderful job of giving step by step instructions on how to customize various sneaker styles. They went into the history of thr shoe, the materials needed to customize the shoe and even added mock up pages.

Good book for beginners.
