Product Design










Yesterday I stumbled upon a great example of
custom product design that many of you may find interesting. Within
recent years there has been an increasing number of young people in art
room 122 who have a strong interest in sneaker and sneaker culture. One
of the great things about sneaker culture are the limited edition
sneakers produced and the use of artist and their work to customize the
product. This is a great example of both graphic and industrial design,
both are lucrative fields for artists, and how cool would it be to
design sneakers and get PAID

This set of custom vans syndicate sneakers were designed by professional skateboarder and custom motorcycle builder Max Schaaf (4q conditioning). The packaging is based off of vintage Harley Davidson packaging. Very cool stuff.
