Custom Hand-Painted Jackets & Shoes information 

I have tried to include as much detail here as possible to help you with the process of choosing and ordering your bespoke leather or denim jacket. They are not just bridal jackets, tho they are very popular with brides & make perfect gifts for members of your wedding party, or as engagement gifts for Brides to Be! Personalised shoes such as Converse, Vans & Dr Martens are a great alternative to tired aching feet on your wedding day!

If you can’t find the answer you’re looking for, just get in touch and I will happily help with any further information and help you in your purchase of personalised, bespoke jackets, shoes & accessories.

Custom Jackets and Footwear

  • Not at all, the high quality paints I use work just as beautifully on PU/Faux leather, denim & canvas type materials. The only material I haven’t found much success with yet is suede jackets. The nature of suede means it stiffens and goes ‘crusty’ (not a good look!) even with a paint softener additive. Small details can be added, but I wouldn’t recommend a full design. Suede boots (like timberlands etc) are fine as the base is firmer.

  • Well here we have some options! Ideally you will have a jacket or footwear you know is a perfect fit, either one you already own or brand new. You send this to me (please use fully tracked & signed for service, or drop it to my studio) and I paint it up for you.

    I also have a selection of brand new jackets and some trainers that can be tried on at my studio or at events I attend.

    I am happy to help source vintage jackets - there are some absolute gems to be found!

    All packages are priced for artwork only, new unpainted jackets I have in stock are priced individually.

  • Cash, all major credit/debit cards or bank transfer. Once you are ready to confirm your booking this can be done via website or direct with myself

  • As soon as possible! Even if you have no idea on style/colours/theme etc.. a holding deposit will secure your booking. We can then enjoy the creative process without rushing. any bookings required within 1 month will carry a £50 urgent order charge.

  • Firstly choose your options from my current design portfolio. Get in touch to book, we confirm your requirements and I will send you an invoice and deposit link. Upon receipt of your (non-refundable) deposit I will get to work creating a mockup of your design digitally. I work closely with you at this stage, ensuring my design matches your ideas - photos & Pinterest or mood boards are welcomed!

    Once you have agreed the design I then prepare and paint your design - this can take up to 8 weeks depending on complexity of design. Denim takes longer as the material soaks up the paint and I have to build thin layers to ensure fabric stays supple. I will send you a final payment request 4 weeks prior to the date I expect to deliver your item. I then finish and protect your design with a finishing coat and fabric protector spray, parcel up and arrange delivery/collection.

    Please note that as all items are bespoke, refunds are not possible, please double/triple check all spellings etc before signing that you are happy with mockup design thank you.

  • Of course we can, there are not enough hours in the day to paint all the ideas I have in my head, so my sample range and images are just that - the possibilities are endless, and I love creating unique bespoke designs. So let's work together to create something spectacular!

  • Jackets, trainers, boots, bags, phone cases, watch straps, guitars (yes i’ve done that too!)… there is not much that can’t be done! Also, jackets don’t have to be black… I have sourced every colour under the rainbow.

  • Absolutely not. I wear my jacket just because I LOVE IT. My custom Coldplay trainers were so comfortable for dancing all night at their Gig! tho I have taken the Flashing light laces out for regular wear… How about an awesome jacket with your business logo handpainted - literally a walking advertisement for your brand…

  • We can’t go long without rain can we! The paint I use is the best on the market, very hard-wearing and difficult to remove (yep, tipped a whole bottle over myself - blue for a week!) your items are also carefully prepared to ensure good adhesion, and protected with a clear finishing layer. Full care and cleaning information is provided with your order. Any questions re looking after your item, feel free to pop me a message.
