We’re proud to introduce someone whose creativity and character we admire deeply: Jordan Canter, aka @JtheCordwainer. Jordan is a one-of-a-kind talent who handcrafts 1-of-1 custom shoes using premium materials and repurposed textiles, blending innovation, storytelling, and craftsmanship into every pair he makes. But what makes us even bigger fans than his incredible artistry is the person behind the shoes. Jordan is truly a class act and incredibly funny! He's also been a constant supporter of The Kingsland Shoe Project since day one - and we’re endlessly grateful for the love he shows our products and mission.

We’re honored that he includes a pair of our Fresh Flow Shoe Trees in every pair he creates, and that he continues to shout us out in his content. His work reflects not only his eye for detail but his heart for community and connection. Get to know more about Jordan’s creative journey, his inspirations, and the kicks he can’t live without below. We couldn’t be more excited to have him as part of The Kingsland Shoe Project family.

The Kingsland Shoe Project community, get ready to be inspired! This week, we're thrilled to introduce the incredible Jimmy Guidos, the heart and soul behind @JaysFireFridays. Jimmy's journey beautifully intertwines his passion for sneakers with his dedication to making a real difference in the lives of students. What started as a simple way to recognize and encourage students has grown into a movement spanning 23 school sites, fostering confidence, positive connections, and personal growth—one sneaker at a time.

Right now, Jimmy is leading a special initiative: the Fire Fridays Kids’ Sneaker Drive, in partnership with Western Youth Services and Shoes That Fit. The goal? Provide new and gently worn sneakers to students in need, ensuring that every child has access to footwear that makes them feel confident and ready to take on the world. Donations are being collected through April, and every pair makes a difference! Learn more on how to support: bit.ly/firefridays2025

We love Jimmy’s dedication to empowering students through something as simple, yet impactful, as a clean pair of sneakers. His work proves that shoes are a symbol of self-worth, community, and care. We’re honored to have Jimmy as part of our community and excited to support the incredible work he’s doing with #FireFridays!

This week, we’re excited to introduce Paul Norman, the creative force behind @paulssneakers. Paul’s sneaker photography is simple, clean, and elegant, with stunning studio setups and lighting that make every shot feel like a work of art. Paul’s love for Jordans, Nikes, New Balance, and Adidas is evident in his collection, and we admire how he blends retro and modern aesthetics in both his photography and personal style.

Beyond his visuals, we’re also big fans of the prints and digital wallpapers Paul sells on paulssneakers.com, bringing his passion for sneakers to life in a whole new way. His perspective on sneakers as both art and personal expression resonates deeply with us, and we’re honored to have him as part of The Kingsland Shoe Project community. We can’t wait to see more of your incredible work.

This week, we’re excited to showcase Tee G (@catricia__) to The Kingsland Shoe Project community! Tee’s passion for sneakers and fashion is undeniable, and her vibrant personality shines through in everything she does. From her bold streetwear fits to her deep love for Air Force 1s and Jordans, her style is both authentic and expressive.

Beyond sneakers, Tee brings an infectious energy to her content, whether she’s sharing her love for fashion, creating uplifting YouTube videos, or making unforgettable memories with her son. Her hustle, heart, and drive are truly inspiring, and we admire the way she embraces life with passion and purpose.

We also love that Tee keeps it real when it comes to sneaker care—believing every scuff tells a story, but always making sure her kicks stay fresh. We’re honored to have her in the Kingsland community and can’t wait to see what she creates next!
