Hi guys.
So basically I just got a pair of all white adidas superstars and I'd like to draw some sort of design on them. I was wondering if you lot had anything I could use as inspiration or any tips on how to make sure the design doesn't fade.

Cheers

Just a heads up, no one will take you seriously while wearing shoes that are drawn all over.

As someone who makes a little money on the side running a very small shoe customization business I have a few tips if your interested. If you want it to last and look good I would get real leather paints from angelus.com and look up a few videos on how to do it right, also always make sure you have a plan before you start paining don't just start throwing designs on there

like said above, angelus paint is the only thing you should use. know somebody who used their dye on their yeezy 750s and it worked great. respray with a clear after to stay clean

OP, drawing on shoes can be sick if it's done well. That's the caveat - it has to be done well. My GF is finishing her degree in diagnostic genetics and loves it (nerd alert), so she bought a pair of cheap slip ons and painted DNA and nucleotides on them. They turned out awesome.



She used some sort of acrylic paint; she's been wearing them for about a month now and they haven't faded at all.
