Building Shoes from scratch

post #1 of 9
Thread Starter 
Overtime, I have seen a whole lot of sneakers that were built up from scratch. Has anyone made any Shoes from scratch ? Im thinking about building my own. I would be happy to see some others attempts at this.

As for emmanuel labor, He still uses the upper from the original shoe and changes some things up, i plan on making my own upper from scratch

I've thought about taking a bunch of different shoes and combining the parts that I liked about them into one shoe.
I have a list of kicks I need and I don't have the money to afford all of them.
The shoe was to be made to suit my needs on the court. So basically my favorite cushioning, traction, heel fit, etc.
But that's not really from scratch it's more like a frankenstein mash up of shoes.

This seems like too much for anything less than a master shoe builder. You need molds and a lot of knowledge.
