Custom Embroidered Converse High Top Sneakers

A potential customer reached out to see if I could embroider on shoes. I had to think about it for a minute because I had never even thought this could be possible but I was determined to figure it out! As one embroidery professional expressed to me: "If you can hoop it you can embroider it!" Now I just had to figure out a way to hoop it! After a small amount of research, I saw that there is a specialty clamp specifically for shoes made for my machine but it was around $1200! OUCH! I did however already own a hoop to embroider on to shirt pockets that fits on the same driver used to embroider on to hats. I thought this might be the right shape to fit those high sides of the sneakers.First I decided to test my theory on a pair of my own shoes with a simple design. The hoop clamp fit perfectly and I was shocked at how well it worked! 


These Converse sneakers already came with some embroidery done by the manufacturer so I worked with the client's design she had in mind to compliment the design of the shoe that was already there. The shoes were for a special graduation event for a teacher and I thought the theme and design came out beautifully in embroidery.
