See all formats and editions
In recent years the sneaker scene has exploded with artist and designer collaborations. These specialist shoes are produced as short runs, using innovative or luxury materials, and often have bespoke packaging. Some even push the design of the shoes themselves, creating hybrids or new incarnations of classic designs. Focusing exclusively on contemporary, cutting-edge sneaker design, Art & Sole sets out to explore and to celebrate the creative side of sneaker culture showing the best and most original rarities and collaborations. These are not shoes that can be found in your average sports store. This book is a must for any enthusiast of sneaker design or collector of the shoes themselves.

Just so amazing! I found this book in a friends storage unit and just had to buy my own copy. Any sneaker customized should pick up this book to see better understanding on how to show case your designs and products.

Gave this as a gift for a friend's 14-year old son, who happens to love drawing and researching sneakers. He couldn't believe that such a book existed. It's difficult to find anything for a teenage boy that isn't electronic, but this book was a big hit.

This book was a very-much appreciated by my son, who's a sneaker expert. He generally does all his research online, but he liked having the opportunity to see sneaker information and design ideas in book form.

If you're a sneaker-head of a designer then this is the book for you. Inside the cover has a well documented collection of classic and modern sneakers from companies and collaborative designers across the industry. Highly recommended!
