I've been watching people customise shoes for a long time this is some of the best work I've seen, this to me is a true custom shoe not a af1 with some paint thrown at it or material stuck to it this is art man, the time you spend creating these shoes and the detail and process that goes into it makes it all worth while. Keep creating bro 😎

Great question, Photshop is a way way way more powerful tool overall. However, procreate is much less intimidating to just open up imo!

[@Atmos_Glitch]

Would've been cool if the swoosh of the tick went over his hand, would've seemed like he was manipulating the sand making the design feel more purposeful and clever which allows for a more interesting composition imo. Really cool tutorial tho, Super helpful!

Can you please share which vinyls you use? I purchased a silhouette but haven’t been able to find a vinyl that works with it. Atl least non that are reusable only paper or sticker like items.

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

I use Oracal 811 ! All vinyl is going to have an adhesive that makes it stick well and give you those clean details. If you’re looking for something reusable you wouldn’t want to use vinyl anymore

[@ericapaul7989]

3:48 how can we do that in procreate please?

[@campigomez]

If some customized (painted) shoes get dirty, how do you have to clean them so as not to lose the paint?

Just standard soap and water or sneaker cleaner and soft bristle brush

More procreate tutorials coming soon!

[@jaycantcreate]

Bro need your advise on heat gun usage (heat gun brand, heat settings, time of use) thank you and nice vids.

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

For heating vinyl? The heat guns I use are just cheap ones you can get from Amazon are harbor freight. Usually only have 1 or 2 settings and you just need to heat the vinyl down long enough to seal it. Nothing crazy!

[@jaycantcreate]

@DeJesus Custom Footwear to set angelus paints for leather and canvas, actually. Coz im afraid heat gun might burn the materials. So low heat settings right? ✌️😉

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

@@jaycantcreate you won’t need to heat the paint on leather just let it air dry. For canvas yes low settings in short spurts and just make sure to not hold the heat gun in one spot , keep it moving

Depends if you’re in procreate or photoshop.. also really depends on the image itself.. In photoshop you could do one of the main selection tools such as magic wand, quick select, or just using the lasso tool. If you’re in procreate you can just draw a selection with the freehand option under the selection tab.

Totally! This is about just having a little more flexibility to tweak it so you can make a stencil from it. You might end up with something almost too detailed in some situations utilizing those softwares to be able to cut at a small scale like shoes
