About Custom Painted Apparel & Accessories
What I Do
I turn your plain sneakers, tees, hoodies, and bags into something that’s got your vibe written all over it. Every piece is hand-painted by me — no prints, just real brushwork. You want the usual stuff from stores? This isn’t that.
Your Style, Your Way
Whether you’re nuts about anime sneaker art, want that classic cartoon mashup, or dream of a galaxy pattern with a little bit of Mumbai swag, I’m all in. I’ve done everything from Goku vs. Frieza battles on Nike kicks to Simpsons drip and even your favourite film icons. If you’ve got a wild idea, bring it.
Beyond Shoes
Jackets, tees, hoodies — I’m painting those too. I use glow-in-the-dark apparel paints and neons that pop at parties. Want your name, a cool logo, or something off-the-wall? Say less. Bachelor party tee or custom sleeve text, sorted.
Make It Luxe
Got a Louis Vuitton or Goyard bag lying around? I do hand-painted luxury bags too. From initials in 3D to Simba chilling with Nala, your statement piece stays one-of-a-kind.
How It Goes Down
• Prep the item for paint to stick
• Sketch the design
• Paint every detail by hand
• Only use top-quality Angelus paints so it actually lasts
No shortcuts, just art that’s built to be seen.
