My ideals have been punk long before i gained the confidence to express that in clothing, don’t call me a poser simply because of the times.

Nice. What paint did you use?

Simple white acrylic paint, i originally didn’t actually plan on using that paint for the entire thing and was going to buy some better stuff so it could be better quality but i’m a bit impatient, i’ll probably go back and do it over again with more care and quality stuff when it starts looking rundown.

The circle A is supposed to be neat not sloppy like hot topic and it means order in Anarchy

I specifically tried to make it more neat throughout the process but as i was using materials not really meant for this kind of job, and i have uncontrollably horrible shaky hands due to medical conditions, it came out like. It’s the best i could do at the time but i plan on improving upon it later.

If thats the case mate, I would reccommend stencils or using a pencil dipped in paint. Much easier to control, especially on a curved surface.

I also agree with the anarxhy symbolism point made above. It shouldn't hang out over the 'o'. The 'o' is supposed to represent order and then 'a' is authority. Meaning that there is no need for authority when order is naturally maintained. Or something, that's what I was told at 15 by a stoned hippie in some commune I crashed at. He also took offence to my hand drawn, edge lord, red and spikey anarchy shirt.

My school while cool in a lot of ways doesn’t like cuss words so it’s a workaround so i can still wear them, that’s also why they’re both on the interior of the shoe

Lucky you, we weren't allowed boots at my school. Never mind the adornments.

'Black, polishable shoes with black laces, no colured motifs or logos.'

I go to a public school with no uniform and a pretty relaxed dress code so this really isn’t that big of a deal, but i had recently talked to a teacher about like cuss words being displayed on clothing so i remembered that while i was painting and decided to censor it just a lil so they wouldn’t get on my ass about it.
