The Best Custom Sneakers From January 2022

Well, that’s one month black in 2022 — already? sheesh! The change in year has brought many new things, but for sneaker customizers and creatives, it’s been business as usual — perhaps even more so, considering the quiet climate of sneaker news and releases has thrust more of the spotlight onto this arena.

A killer start to the year of creative customs and concepts crystal-embellished everything from Travis Scott-inspired Air Jordan 3s, to camo-clad Louis Vuitton Air Jordan 1s. Aged-look aesthetics still reign supreme, with gradients, wax-dipping, and made-from-scratch bespokes capping off the first month of 2022.

Take a look through our favorite custom and concept sneakers from January 2022 below, and if you dabble in a bit of bespoke, then be sure to tag us on Instagram for a chance to be featured in next month’s wrap!
