How do everyone!! I'm chris, 27 years young, from the UK, and I design and customize sneakers as a job. I would like to apologise for an earlier post, should have introduced myself first. I have always had a soft spot for Superstars!! Here are some recent customs I did on some very rare Superstar Adicolors:

Hi Chris, welcome along. Do you collect superstars or just customise them for others??

hello Chris, those customs look pretty funky. Like streak said, are you a collector or do you just customise soops for other people?

I'm interested to know how you get such fine line detail on them. Do you use paint, pens or some other medium. Do you paint them as is, or do you take the shoe apart, paint the leather and then rebuild the shoe?
I'd like to know your techniques as I do customs myself using paints and an airbrush.

Thanks Streak, glad to be here, thanks El Samo. I have a big sneaker collection, not just Superstars, but Superstars are wkd for customizing cos of the continuous side panels. I work for a sneaker company that designs and prints sticker graphics for people to customize their own sneakers. The Superstars in the pics were customized using specially developed sticker film for sneakers, it stretches with the sneaker when walking and is waterproof. Hope everyone likes the designs, u are the first peeps to see them! :0)

Welcome Chris.
Would the sticker come in 5 different bits as the stripes would get in the way if you wanted a sticker coverin the whole upper?
An how much does it cost to have a custom one made?
