We received a slew of sneaker sketches recently from a young designer in Boise, Idaho named Cirq. Cirq is a 14-year old designer who is looking for customers to buy his designs. You can get in touch with the burgeoning sneaker artist by emailing [email protected] if you are interested in the designs below.

The design I enjoyed most out of the packet was the Nike Hyperdunk Z featured at the top of the post. Cirq says that he could customize these sneakers in a size 9 for about $120. A committed sneaker artist, Cirq can complete these designs in the matter of a few class periods. While the design suffers from a lack of color, the sketch shows that Cirq has a good eye for detail.

The remaining sketches are featured below with most ranging from $85 to $100 per pair in a size 8.5 or 9. We do not typically publish sketches or renderings of sneakers on MyAirShoes but Cirq’s detailed sketches show that he is making more than a half-hearted effort. Cirq’s early start in the world of sneaker art could mean a long career of customizing Nikes for loyal View More Photos/Info
