From worn—to reborn.

I transform worn or damaged sneakers to create my one of a kind upcycled art and handcrafted leather goods. 

This gorgeous piece features the iconic wings logo and bred color blocking sampled directly from an authentic Jordan 1 High OG Homage to Home. I paired the sneaker material with premium Italian Badalassi Carlo vachetta leather on the backside of this hand stitched keychain. The result is a unique, handcrafted piece worthy of admiration from any sneaker collector.

As always, the intent of this piece was to ensure the essence of the original sneaker remains intact, highlighting the features of the Jordan 1 design, while transforming into something entirely new.

Handcrafted using 100% authentic sneakers. Materials are cut directly from the shoes. Authenticity guaranteed. This item is a piece of “upcycled art”, and is not associated with the brand the piece is upcycled from.

For over six years, I’ve been at the forefront of my craft—upcycled sneaker leatherwork—pioneering creative ways to transform worn and damaged sneakers into handcrafted pieces with soul. Every creation is a labor of love, shaped by originality, craftsmanship, and a deep passion for sneaker culture, it’s history, and leathercraft.

This isn’t mass production. It’s art. Each piece is meticulously designed and stitched by hand, carrying the history of the sneaker it came from and the creativity that turns it into something entirely new. By giving these materials a second life, I’m not just preserving their story—I’m rewriting it.

When you invest in a piece from eightyfivecustoms, you’re not just purchasing a product; you’re owning a piece of sustainable artistry, built with care, vision, and authenticity.

100% hand stitched and handcrafted.

**Every piece created is custom made by hand and unique to itself, usually using authentic pre-owned sneakers with wear and tear. We embrace each sampled sneakers characteristics, and even it’s flaws due to age and wear. These features tell the story of that specific shoe, and I give that shoe new life and purpose. Please keep this information in mind when purchasing an eightyfivecustoms piece. Old kicks. New life.
