We introduce our Air Max 1 - Persistence of Memory. This one-of-a-kind sneaker fuses art with craftsmanship, bringing Dalí’s surreal world right to your feet.
The shoe’s foundation is crafted from a silk scarf printed with the iconic artwork, where melting clocks challenge the rigid structure of time. Each pattern was meticulously positioned to achieve a harmonious, symmetrical look, capturing the fluidity and dream-like quality of Dalí's vision.
Dalí’s work reminds us that time is not as fixed as it seems; it’s flexible and subject to interpretation. These sneakers embody that same philosophy: a reminder that some things are worth taking the time to perfect, and creativity cannot be rushed.
Make it
There are many steps involved in creating a quality pair of handcrafted sneakers. For these specific shoes, we needed to do some extra steps.
