Instead of chucking her ex’s dunks, Amanda Yoakum, a Parsons fashion design graduate, started painting on his old sneakers, using them as a makeshift canvas for her art. Her designs were quickly noticed, and this self-proclaimed artist and sneaker customizer instantly gained a following not only from the art world, but a slew of sneakerhead clients (including collabs with Flight Club and Vans). For custom, one-of-a-kind styles, send your kicks to her New Jersey studio called YoaKustoms, where Yoakum will create handpainted styles in about two-to-three weeks.
