The “Starry Night” Air Force 1 Is A Masterpiece

Without question, there is a unique thrill that comes from seeing the blend of timeless art with modern streetwear style. A favourite of many is where well-known masterpieces find new life on much-loved sneaker silhouettes. That’s certainly where the exceptional “Starry Night” Air Force 1 sneaker custom by Moreiarty falls. 

Intricacies of the Van Gogh “Starry Night” Air Force 1

We’ve previously shared a handful of silhouettes dressed in Van Gogh’s mesmerising Starry Night. However, I still find myself constantly swooning over the beauty of this exquisite artwork translated onto different sneaker models. We’ve admired the Air Jordan 1, Nike Dunk Low, and Nike Dunk High, all dressed up with captivating whirls and airy brushstrokes. However, this time around, the legendary Air Force 1 ascends as the canvas for Van Gogh’s iconic masterpiece. 

The vibrant hues and twisting patterns of Starry Night explode on the fresh “White” canvas of this Air Force 1, producing a breathtaking design that salutes both Van Gogh’s work and the world of sneakers. Everything that fans of the original masterpiece hold dear, from the striking blues, yellows, and whites to the hallmark cypress tree, crescent moon, and stars, is captured with respect. Even the distinctive brushstrokes that are telltale of Van Gogh’s style are expertly replicated on this custom sneaker.

But what differentiates these kicks from other sneaker designs we have seen thus far is the decision to maintain the toe box, eye stays, heel tab, and overlay trims in clean white. This choice creates an appealing contrast that enables the artwork’s brilliant colours and precise details to command full attention across the toe cap, quarter panels and heel counter.

However, one additional detail that caught my eye is the embroidered Nike Swoosh on the heel tab. It ties in quite brilliantly with the rest of the shoe, expertly painted to blend with the overall theme of the design. Even though this might seem like a minor detail, it significantly enhances the charm of these custom kicks – after all, it’s often the little touches that count. Needless to say, its this level of dedication and attention to detail on these custom sneakers that truly make them a work of art in their own right.

Van Gogh himself once said, “I don’t know anything with certainty, but seeing the stars makes me dream.” That seems a perfect reflection of how it feels to absorb all the star and moon details on this wonderful piece of sneaker art, a clear dream for those who appreciate both art and sneakers.

How to Get your Hands on the Starry Sneaker Marvel

So, if this Van Gogh’s “Starry Night” AF1 design speaks to you-as any great artwork should-you can look to Moreiarty (@moreiarty) to place a special order. There is a choice to specify your preferred sneaker style, and you can even see this classic painting reinterpreted in a whole new way if you’d like. The moonlit sky is the limit.

This India-based enterprise offers global postage, making their custom creations accessible to everyone, everywhere. In terms of costs, every custom-made masterpiece has its own unique value. The creative execution and complexity of the design dictate the price. However, customising fees start from around 5,000 INR (that’s roughly equal to $60 USD).

Do bear in mind, this fee covers only the artistic endeavour, not the canvas. You are required to provide the sneakers separately. You are welcome to send a brand-new pair to them, or if you prefer, they offer a service to source them for you. Once they have received your shoes, you can expect to walk in your personalised artwork within 3-4 weeks unless stated otherwise. Perhaps, for those in a hurry, the rush order is a more fitting option, albeit for a small supplementary fee.
