DIY/ half sneakers

I don't know why I always find it difficult to throw things away, maybe it's because of my minimalist mentality and I am used to repairing my old items to make it look new again.

I bought these sneakers because of the colour, I love white sneakers. Anything white looks great on me and it fits my colour so immediately I saw the sneakers, I couldn't take my eyes off it until I bought it. I didn't bother checking the size and just assumed that it would size me since I have small legs.

I kept it at home because I only had the plan of rocking it occasionally. Around last week, I was about to rock it when I found out that it doesn't fit me perfectly but I didn't mind because I love it.

It started hurting me on the bus and when I got to where I was going, I couldn't hold the pain so I bought slippers and then packed the sneakers inside my bag.

I wanted to give it to my junior sister but her legs are bigger than mine, so I thought of rebranding it into half sneakers and I love the outcome because it looks more beautiful than before plus it doesn't hurt my legs anymore.

Material used

The sneakers
White thread and needle
Scissors

Procedure

Step 1

I measured the space that was hurting my legs in the sneakers and made use of scissors to cut it off.

Step 2
I made use of the white thread and needle to sew all the edges, the reason why I sewed the edges is that the sneakers have lace and the lace might start to remove thread whenever I wash it so now that I have sewed it around it will never remove.

I took some of the parts I cut out to patch the edges just to make them look neat and beautiful.
I hope you all enjoyed learning how i rebrand the sneakers.
Thanks for reading.
