Send us your wedding dress, suit, or any fabric that holds special meaning to you, and we'll turn it into a custom pair of sneakers that you can cherish long after the celebration.

Our Process: Bringing Your Dream Sneakers to Life

Creating your dream wedding sneakers is a collaborative and creative process. Here’s a quick overview of how it works:

  1. Design Session: We start with a design session, either in our atelier in Tiel, The Netherlands, or through a 1.5-hour virtual consultation. During this session, we discuss your ideas, preferences, and inspirations to create a design that perfectly matches your vision.

  2. Choose your materials: We offer a wide selection of over 500 high-quality materials, from Italian Nappa leather to exotic leathers like alligator and snake. You can also provide your own materials, such as fabric from a beloved piece of clothing or even a family heirloom.

  3. Craftsmanship: Our skilled craftsmen pay attention to every little detail to ensure that your wedding sneakers are made to the highest standard. We use techniques like embroidery, laser engraving, foil stamping, and printing to add personalized touches that make your sneakers truly one-of-a-kind.

    Our team is made up of passionate sneaker enthusiasts and expert craftsmen who are dedicated to making your custom sneaker experience unforgettable. We strive to bring your vision to life with the best results possible.

  4. Turnaround time: Because all our bespoke sneakers are handmade in Tiel, The Netherlands, it takes up to 5-7 weeks before we can ship the sneakers out! During this time you will get notified once we start on the production of the sneakers and give you some insights in our craft.

A look at some of our wedding sneaker collection

Over the years, we’ve had the honor of creating beautiful wedding sneakers for couples all around the world. Here are a few examples from our collection:


Air Jordan 1 Low Gentleman

The Air Jordan 1 Low "Gentleman" is crafted from high-quality black calf leather, featuring brogue perforations and detailing inspired by classic, vintage men's dress shoes. The sleek black leather design gives the sneaker an elegant look, making it subtle enough that, at first glance, no one would realize you're walking down the aisle in sneakers. For a personal touch, the inside of the shoe includes the wedding date, making it a timeless keepsake.

Air Jordan 1 High & Low (Bride and Groom Set)

These Air Jordan 1 High & Low sneakers were created especially for the bride and groom. For the bride, we used fabric from her wedding dress, carefully incorporating it into the shoe’s design. The sneakers are a beautiful matching set that connects the couple in style. Made from premium nubuck, these sneakers keep the color palette clean and understated, with a touch of blue metallic leather added for a "something blue" accent that adds a subtle yet eye-catching detail.

Air Max 1

This pair of Air Max 1 sneakers was custom-made for Francesco. The design features a blend of corduroy, suede, nubuck, and cork, giving the sneakers a unique texture and style. To make the shoes even more special, the wedding date is displayed on the heel, and Francesco’s initials are embroidered on the tongue, making this pair a true one-of-a-kind creation for his big day.

If you’re ready to add a personal touch to your wedding with custom sneakers, we’d love to help you bring your vision to life. Our team is here to guide you through the process, from the initial design session to the final creation.
