Piccolo Shoes: 2024
These are a pair of Adidas sneakers that I customized, theming the design around the Dragon Ball character Piccolo. The sneaker makes use of DTF transfers, reflective HTV, Sponge HTV, sublimation markers, and Sharpies.
The sneaker is a further exploration of customizing sneakers, making use of different techniques and materials to customize the sneaker. The design incorporates manga panels/ story boards of Piccolo's fight with Gamma 2 in the Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero movie, a depiction of a variation of one of his signature moves: Special Beam Cannon, and his Demon King Piccolo symbol.
This pair is the fifth pair of sneakers that I've customized so far. While my background in HTV customization of apparel helps, I am still experimenting and gaining further knowledge of the possibilities of sneaker customization.
