Shoe paint , customizing it?
Almost (but will eat my words if I am wrong) positive that those shoes have been sewn like that. It%26#039;s not paint, but instead different materials.





I have painted leather shoes before... very tricky. You have to sand and then stipple with white acrylic paint. after that you have to stipple on the colored paint to make your design. Spray with (many coats) of clear coat. If you don%26#039;t stipple, it will crack. However, even by doing this it won%26#039;t look like the images you posted. It has a much different aesthetic feel.
Reply:I agree with the above answer. Is hard to paint a leather shoe where the paint will not peel off. Since acrylic is plastic it could easily peel off unless you really sand the shoe.
