Wearable Art: Put Your Photos On A Pair Of Shoes

by Will Safer on August 19, 2008 at 07:20 PM



Kids have been drawing on their Keds sneakers for years. In fact, some artists use them as their canvas – but what if you don't have an artist's eye? Fret not (we know that's what you do), for customizable photo sneaks are here.

The folks at Zazzle.com have added Keds sneaks to their catalog of customizable products, and you can upload images and place them on the different panels of the shoes.

Some ideas:
  • photos of your toes.
  • photos of someone else's toes.
  • photos of your cat's toes.
  • perhaps a photo of one large toe.

You get the idea. Basically, if you've got the digital image then you've got a shoe design element. To test it out, we uploaded some pleasing nature shots. It's a pretty simple process, with preview screens and the ability to see the shoe from all angles. (See our handiwork above.)

The fancy footwear will run you $50 or more depending on style choices. [From Photojojo.]
