Custom Shoes for Social Media Giant Digg - Monday, November 10th, 2008

Welcome fellow Digger! If you like this page, don't forget to digg it!
Welcome fellow Stumbler! Don't forget to give the thumbs up if you like this page!


When Matt Van Horn of Digg (the world’s largest social news website) came to me looking for unique custom shoes, needless to say I was thrilled! I’ve been a long time Digg user, and I definitely couldn’t pass up a chance to create some exclusive custom kicks for them. Here’s what I designed:

The custom Air Force Ones feature a spiffy Digg color scheme, and a cool glow-in-the-dark “Digg” pattern. I produced 5 pairs of Limited Edition sneakers for the Digg staff and 1 pair for myself.

The founder of Digg, Kevin Rose, and CEO Jay Adelson were gracious enough to sign my pair:

Thanks guys! I hope you enjoy your custom kicks!

You don’t have to be an Internet celebrity to own a pair of custom sneakers. Head over to our Order Page and we’ll design some just for you!
