[@kamilarivera5779]

I started customizing recently, I have learned so much from you, your techniques and advice have helped me a lot. You taught me that if something goes wrong, it is an opportunity to improve, not to put limits on myself and say "I can't." What separates you from others is your humility and authenticity, God bless you and you're family very much.

Can you do custom decals by chance?

[@sharmelparker1872]

I wonder how you get your shoe inventory. I don't have any inventory

[@derrickkennedy9648]

I'm just starting at this customizing shoes been wanting to for a while now any tips on doing portraits

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

Yeah of course I’d give all these videos a watch trough kzbin.info/www/bejne/qYuYp3iMo5iCpbM kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZeTn3aEfrNqpLc kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWS6lpmIe96nedU

[@customsbychefnik5357]

Question: when prepping shoes I used acetone, now the factory paint has bubbled or warped. Is this normal for air force ones?

[@lisadietz4521]

Dillon, do you know of anyone dealing with arthritis issues and working on shoes?

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

I can’t say I do honestly.. I imagine you’ve already tried a lot of the general wrist supports and wraps?

[@lisadietz4521]

Wrist supports are generally too bulky for holding a paint brush. I use arthritis gloves which offer minimal help. There are some lotions that will provide a little relief for stiffness. But overall I found I simply had to slow down, take more breaks. This made it unreasonable to think of doing it for money. It just takes me too long. My original intent had been to simply earn enough to get a tattoo that represented my son's passing when he was still in his 20's. I'll find another way. I will continue to do shoes for friends and family as the price is right so they will have patience! 😀

[@joebutton8357]

How can I send my shoes off to you so they can be reviewed on your video?

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

Hey Joe, make sure you follow us over on Instagram that’s where we announce anytime we have openings for reviews
