I’m in my 2-year cycle of picking up a hobby that is totally unrelated to my day-to-day job, and I’m toying with the idea of making custom Nike Air Max 1’s.
Any recommendations on where to start? Materials, cut patterns, equipment, suppliers, etc.
I know my way around a domestic sewing machine but I’ve never done anything like this before. I’m blissfully unaware of how hard this is surely going to be and I’m ok with that, I’m up for the challenge!
All tips, tricks, and recommendations on who to follow are more than welcome.
I’m also very open to partnerships, so if you are a supplier of shoemaking tools, materials, or products and would like to partner up to promote them through our various social channels, feel free to get in touch.
