Sneakart just made the world of personalized sneakers a whole lot cooler. Sneakart creates thin 100% PVC-free graphic films, or 'Sneakskins', that you can then apply to your own shoes. The skins are both waterproof and removable, giving potentially endless life to a good pair of sneakers.
It gets better. The Sneakskins are available in sheets of individual stickers or a solid patterned sheet that you can cut. And if you're so inclined, you can upload your own artwork to the site. In doing so, you can keep your designs private and for your use only, or make them public. Each time your public design is purchased, Sneakart gives back 10% of the sale price to the designer.
A portion of every Sneakart sale goes to Street Kids International, which empowers children living on the street to make positive life choices. In addition, Sneakart has already offset more than twice its 2008 carbon footprint by donating to PURE renewable energy projects in India, Brazil and China.
