CustomsByNico Journey
March 2020
Founded in Mt. Vernon, NY, CustomsByNico started as a hobby picked up at the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic. After seeing people paint their clothing and shoes on TikTok, I decided to try this out for myself. After some trial and error, I painted my first pair of Air Force Ones. Friends and family took notice of this new hobby and began asking for customs for themselves.
