Process

Each Footsol shoe is hand drawn by Matti Dwyer using top quality, waterproof, archival ink pens on canvas. Designing can take from 10-20 hours/pair depending on complexity, shoe size, etc..

After illustration is complete, Matti applies a protective sealant making Footsol shoes durable & machine washable for long-lasting color vibrancy.

FAQ

Q: What type of shoe do you use?

A: Footsol currently purchases shoes per request. If you have a specific shoe preference/size (e.g. Adidas, Men’s 9.5), let us know, or send it our way for production.

Q: How are shoes priced?

A: We provide an estimate before starting based off of predicted material/time costs. We will begin processing once we both agree to the estimate; we try our best to stay within the specified price range.

Q: What if I can’t afford a pair at the moment, but would like to support the artist?

A: We appreciate any support! Please consider a monthly Patreon donation to help get the company off the ground. See link above to the right.

 

Even prior to sealant, our top quality ink is waterproof as you can see here. Our protective sealant allows for color fastness and resistance to wear and tear.
