Jump on the trend!

One of the reasons why this shoe design and colour trend has gained such popularity is the emotional connection that people have with their pets. Pets are often considered members of the family, and many individuals want to find unique ways to honour and celebrate their furry companions. Hand painted custom personalised shoes and pet portraits on sneakers provide a tangible and wearable representation of this love and connection, allowing individuals to carry a piece of their pet with them wherever they go.

Once the portrait is complete, it is carefully applied to the sneakers using high-quality paints to create full and intricate detail. This ensures that the artwork is durable and long-lasting, able to withstand the wear and tear of the shoes and everyday use.

Gitartsy paints sneakers with Angelus Leather paints, which are specifically made for the shoes. Its properties ensure the durability of the paint. Each item therefore is waterproof and weatherproof. All items they create are unique and one-of-a-kind which make the products special and therefore very popular as ‘the perfect gift’.
