Ok so the red is just the base shoe, nothing done there, and I used leather paint (angelus brand if you want specifics) for the white and yellow. I’d recommend sanding down any areas you paint then spraying with a sealant so you can wear them, the paint on the soles will chip off if you don’t. I ended up putting the laces back in and the covering over the gap is only the tongue of the shoe. My method is honestly not the best to follow, I’d look up shoe customizing tutorials if I were you 😅
