About FlyKickz-
FlyKickz is A SNEAKER customizing company by me...Dez. The idea of Flykickz is to make wearable sneaker art and have every design take on a personality of it's own. I provide designs that are handpainted on many classic style sneakers. I Do NOT limit what I can create and I continue to think outside the box.
A Lil Q&A with Dez
Q: When did you start FlyKickz?
FK: Late December 2006
Q:What is your art background? Did you go to school, Did you teach your self?
FK: I never really took a lot of art classes or went to school for art but I’ve always been into the craft as a whole whether it was music, paintings or merely pictures on a wall. I was always been a creative person, it was just a matter of finding the right canvas an I found that with sneakers which allowed me to just implement some of the things I already knew.
Q: What keeps you focused?
FK: My family, friends and my work itself definitely helps keep me focused. I believe it has a lot to do with me wanting to be the best that I can be at what I do. I continue to have that drive everyday which pushes me to keep researching,learning and most of all stay focused on my ultimate goal.
Q: Do you plan to just stick with doing shoes or Do you want to start you own clothing line in the future?
FK: I love what I do with sneakers, it allows me to creatively express myself on the soles of peoples feet but in the future I look forward to adding to FlyKickz and becoming somewhat of a template.
