I bring the athlete mentality to design. Everything I learn on the court I try to apply to the design game and vice versa. Some of the best life lessons are when you’re at the rawest and gotta trust in your squad. I’ll stay dedicated to that. Always.

This project has been intense. I purchased a 3D Printer for part creation during school. Brackets, sliders, mounts were mostly what was being printed, but in the back of my mind I wanted to make my own shoes. I knew that. I just needed to figure out how. Coming are some visuals of that how.

Limited space, coupled with a complete lack of available information on where and how to start your own sneaker project, not to mention the exorbitant costs to start up traditionally. It’s clear what the game plan is. Now to break that. I hope the info I provide can be someone’s guide to replicate similar results.
