Recrafting Sneakers

image

The latest issue of Free & Easy has a nice little feature on sneaker repair shops in Japan. From resoling the bottoms to repairing the linings to even recoloring the uppers, these look a bit more like what a leather dress shoe might go through during a recrafting process. Fingers crossed, I’m hoping to compile a list of similar shops in the US, which will be published at Put This On
