General Pants were at Fashion Palette, hosting a little workshop at their stand, where people received free Converse Chuck Taylor shoes and Levis jeans to customise with studs as they please. Each person was given 15 minutes but studding by hand takes far longer and tonight I finished my pair. Believe it or not, these are my first Converses. I fucking love them. I’d been wanting to get some and stud them for ages so I’m incredibly pleased that I got the chance to. I’m going to add more studs, maybe some smaller ones in a few weeks once I tire of them being like this. Here are photos from both Sydney and of my attempt.
Not mine ^
Mine ^
I just used a bunch of big silver studs, a flat-nose jewellery plier and my late-night perfectionist tendencies. You do not know what thumb pain is until you a) break your thumb and/or b) stud canvas by hand. I’ve done both. Bike riding and stud symmetry are well worth it.
I like
shoes look great!!!!
i really would like to see how the jeans turned out as well!
looooove!
i wanna do these to mine but the tounge!
omg, please can you tell me where I can get some studs like that?! i’ve been looking for ages because I want to customise a bag but I can’t find any… PLEASE
