If you are a fan of sneakers, then chances are you have seen the sick work that Donny does on a whole range of pairs. If you haven’t been lucky enough to see, though, then read on and prepare to be blown away. Having become a master of his craft, Donny’s signature style is taking beloved silhouettes and customising them to insane levels with the use of a whole range of materials.

*SOLD OUT* “Sorbet” AF1 dropping today, 03.20.20 at 12pm est on donnythedybbuk.com (link in bio)
As you can see above with the ‘Sorbet’ Air Force 1, the iconic Uptown’s have had some magic placed upon them with a reinforced midsole and the addition of extra rubber for a bold look and a drip effect melting down the shoe.

What’s the best pair in this pic? All made with rubberized vans and cons outsoles?
However, this is only a fraction of the work Donny completes. He has also covered pairs fully in Vans and Converse outsoles and recreated classic colourways sneaker fans love. His work sells fast though, which he sells on his online website and shares via his Instagram account.
It isn’t always rubberised detailing and fly colourways, however, as Donny took the insanely hyped Nike SB Dunk Low ‘Travis Scott’ and made it his own. Donning them the ‘Cactus Jackalope’, the usually navy and tan pair has been bleached and destroyed and now wears a fire baby pink shade on the upper, as well as Swarovski detailing sure to make a statement.
As fire as these all look, the process is just as mesmerising. Using tools such as a chopstick and razor blade along with melted plastic, the finished product is waterproof, heatproof, and as Donny puts it himself, hater proof.
Thanks for sharing. I read many of your blog posts, cool, your blog is very good.
Your point of view caught my eye and was very interesting. Thanks. I have a question for you.
