Who does it best? Is it @AngelusBrand, @Alpha6Corp, @JacquardProducts, or @TarragoSneakersCare??
What is my favorite paint of all time? Who makes the best sneaker paint in the world?!!
I get asked these questions ALL the time and I’ve been grappling with this ever since I started seeing brands other than Angelus making sneaker-specific paint. This isn’t your $1 Hobby Lobby acrylic paint; these paints are specifically formulated for the wear and tear of sneakers. So, in this video, we’re putting them through the ultimate battle!!! Who will be the last one standing?!
I know you all have your favorites, I want to hear what YOU think! What’s your favorite paint brand, leave it in the comments!
I have been painting on sneakers for over a decade now and my passion is to create long-lasting art on sneakers that will outlast the canvas itself!
Disclaimer: I have received complementary paint from each and every company mentioned in this video, many of the which I used for testing. However, at the point of posting this video, I am in no way affiliated or sponsored by any of these paint companies, the opinions in this video are entirely my own.

Hello everyone! I have spent WAYY too much time obsessing over how to properly compare these paints. It's almost unbelievable to me that it has taken me almost a year to put this video together. I have had great experiences with all of these paint brands and continue to work with them closely, I just want to share with you a neutral, as unbiased as possible opinion on how I think these paints perform. To my surprise, very few artists have spoken about this very extensively. Thank you for your support, please let me know which brand YOU think looks the best, let's chat.
Amazing video! You are without my favorite custom artist!!!
@@TangOhhSucka 🤭you are too kind! Thank you for your support!
Finally someone has the confidence to put these brands head to head!
I've been trying to come to the same conclusion myself, for ME, thought I'd share my thoughts. Hope you enjoy!
We usually are not huge fans of this vs thats but we can tell you really went out of your way to seem unbiased. Cool video!
Gotta give the people what they want! Again, so many use cases for different formulations, but I needed to know, if only for me, which one is the best for me. Thanks for watching!
@@CESTLAVIC Now you can let people know Angelus could up their pricing double and still be killing it 😂. We stay our pricing so our customers get the best bang for buck.
@@CESTLAVIC Also we would like everyone to know that red issue was identified and fixed! It was a pigment supplier issue sadly. We are always listening to our customers. So anytime you need any help or notice something strange please let us know!
@@AngelusBrand We need a better gold!
@@CESTLAVIC Usually for a better gold that is more opaque something has to give. If we loaded it with more pigment it would possibly fracture. If we loaded it with something more opaque it wouldn't be as pearl/metallic gold. We usually suggest putting down a base close opaque layer then going over because of that. We will always pick the durability as our main concern. We could make a gold that basically cakes on but it would fracture and crack easily.
From a well known and trusted sneaker customizer THIS VIDEO IS LEGENDARY!!
Everything you could imagine in a paint tested, she hits it head on.
Thanks You!!
Thank you so so much, your support means the world to me. I really am hoping this video helps to answer questions that any level of sneaker customizer has when it comes to choosing our paints. Appreciate you so much!!
This is one of the BEST analysis of leather paints I've seen. Love the chart with scoring. Very helpful. Thank you for taking the time to do this and share with us.
I've been looking for an alternative to Angelus paints that was a little less expensive. However, we get what we pay for. Painting leather is a different medium from almost any other material. Using paints specifically formulated for leather is the best way to go.
absolutely loved how objective and thorough you were in comparing these!! unbiased/unsponsored reviews like this feel rare these days, especially ones that cut straight to the point- with comparing so many swatches you could've easily made this over an hour long for monetization reasons- thanks for keeping it trim and accessible!
Wow amazing video, authentic reviews!
Now I know which paints I will purchase for myself!
Thanks for watching Bob! Happy to help!
Love how thorough you were.
Thank you so much for taking the time to do this testing..
Well done! This is so informative! Thanks for sharing.
We would be very interested to see a similar evaluation of the Jacquard Textile Colors. Despite the name, our Textile Colors are actually excellent on leather (as long as the surface is properly prepared before painting), with a formulation that isn't nearly as heavy and specialized as the Neopaque. By mixing with the Textile Color Super Opaque White, you can also create high-coverage opaque colors that are super vibrant.
Also, we'd love to see a video comparing options for airbrushing. The Jacquard Airbrush Colors come ready to spray and perform excellently on leather!
PS: tell us just one more time how much you HATE the Jacquard packaging lol
But seriously, we do appreciate that feedback. It helps us identify areas where we can improve. So keep it coming!
Your metallics though 👌👌👌👌
I've used Jacquard for as long as I can remember, especially the textiles, I used to customize t-shirts with them. I definitely have many favorites when it comes to the diversity of products you offer. I've been trying the airbrush colors - they're look promising. After topcoats, that'll probably be the next video!
LOL the packaging kills me, you already know!!!
Really appreciate you taking feedback so gracefully and taking the time to respond.
I will not stop using Jacquard products, there are so many gems to experiment with and put to good use.
I've tried using the textile products on sneakers before and they dried super tacky. The product description said they could be used on leather, so I contacted customer service to ask about it and was told they aren't for use on leather.
@@overly.chromatic if the paint is applied to thick, or if the surface isn't properly prepared, the Textile Colors can feel soft or tacky. But even in that case, just using a finisher over top is effective.
Thank you Ms. Vicki for both an enjoyable and informative video! I would like to learn more so that my articles of clothing and footwear can: last longer; be given a "fresh" look; and so forth. I am always looking to expand my abilities. Blessings! 🙏🙏🙏❤💐
Thank you so much for very detailed information on the paints to use
Excellent explanations, very detailed and clear, this is the best paint review that i’ve been search for a long time, Well done! 🙌
Jacquard airbrush ready is what's up.
Honestly, I’ve used it and it’s pretty good! Haven’t put it to the test yet, but that should come up next
TY for taking time to made this video and the comparaison beetwen this 4 ranges 👏🙏🤙
Excellent video, thank you so much…. I love your designs
the most legit video that i could find about leather paint durability, quality and prize.
overall , you did a fantastic, super, extraordinary video . thank you for all the info.
I don't think I even comprehend how much time this took you. As someone who is a beginner customizer I appreciate this much. I have followed you since the beginning on Instagram, you deserve all of your success. Keep changing the world Vic!
Thank you for taking the time to watch this Staci, the fact that you can empathize with how long this take me literally touches my heart! This comment is motivating and inspiring, thank you so so much for your support, truly. 🥰
What a fantastic video for newcomers! Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video! I've never done sneaker painting and was looking into the best paints for what I plan to do for Halloween. This gave me all the information I needed!
very good test and info...and also beautiful❤
Thank you for the video! I really appreciate the time you spent doing this. Your a Hero in my opinion. Thanks again. 😊
Hey 👋, I loved this review. Can you do a review on fabrics, like cotton or a blend of some kind?
High quality video. Thank you
I have a SM bag i want to customize and i hope i pick what works for me. Thanks for sharing!
Super informative! Cool to see the different colours behaving in different ways!
😁😁 thanks for watching E! 💞💞💞
Thank you 🙏🏾 super helpful
THIS WAS INCREDIBLY HELPFUL!!! Thank you so much!
Wooohooo!! So glad it did, thanks for watching!
Unbiased and informative!👍
🥰 I did my best! Thanks Tammy!
Really learned a lot thx! Have always used Angelus but was curious out the other brands. Now I know! Thinking of trying the terrago luv that they correlate with Pantone
Angelus is the paint that we've probably known about for the longest, so this video really used them as a standard to compare the other paints to. So if you've used Angelus, you can sort of gauge how the other ones are different. I hope you do give Tarrago a try, I haven't used it myself, but that Pantone tool looks pretty useful
Hello, Vic.
This is Bruno.
Greetings from Washington, D.C.
I just started customizing my own sneakers. (Am I even worthy of calling myself a customizer yet)? 🤣🤣🤣
Anyway, thank you for posting this video. I only heard of Angelus, not the others. So I’m glad and thankful to gain this knowledge.
Take care!
BTW, I just subscribed. 🙏
mixing the color with white and then a second layer of pure color will reduce the number of layers you need.
Thanks for putting in so much efforts, really a great & informative video.
🙏 thank you so much for watching, glad you found it helpful
This video was amazing! So informative! My mind was blown by Jacquard during the scratch test. I was, "No Jacquard...no..."😂
Why helloooooo babe! Thank you for watching the video lollll I know, I know, that's why it's important to test the paints out before we use them. You never know how it wears over time.
Hello picked up your channel from Dillon Thx for the well needed info 👍
This video is awesome. I had a question about the durability of painting shoes. Are there also protective coatings that can be applied over the paints?
Thank you for makin this i'm tyring to decide which paints to buy
Hope this helped!
So helpful 🥰🥰🥰
I'm really glad it helped! Thanks for watching!
I’m definitely grabbing some Jacquard metallics paint, never been a fan of the Angelus golds or Silvers
They’ve got a wide range, let me know what you think when you try them
Great video!
Thank you!!!! 🥰
Which white paint would you recommend to cover a black and red logo on the side of white rubber sole?
The conjured twin produced a wonderful blue bird lol Thanks for this elaborate test run.this is really good for some of us that are beginners.
Hahah once I said it, I couldn't unsee it. Thank you so much, I'm so glad this video could help out. Good luck!
CESTLAVIC. Great video as usual. But what can you do about 15:55. If I do a custom job for a customer, I don't want the paint to crack and fleck off after a few weeks, especially on leather as the paint isn't absorbed as it just lies on the surface. How about priming the area with Acrylic Ghesso or some other type of acrylic primer.
You are awesome , I been down a rabbit hole trying to figure out how Ima approach this cuz I wanna start painting shoes for my 13 yr old nieces , your videos have been extremely helpful, thank you very much. Quick question for ya! What’s ur views on airbrush vs paint brush?
Hey Vic, my one question is for your scratch test.. When you apply the finish, doesn't it help against the scarab test...
I wonder how the scrach-test would have varied if different amounts of paint would have been applied...
It would be interesting to see a comparison. (2 vs 3 layer, 3 vs 4 layer, 4 vs 5 layer) for each company. Would you mind testing this..?
PD: Also you did not apply any finisher. From what I've seen, there's a matt and normal version. Would be a nice add-on to see how much durability those finishers add. 8)
I'm looking at Angelus however I don't see the dispenser type of packaging you recommend.
You're so cuteeee watching your video while painting is relaxing ahaha
🥰🥰 thank you so so much. Lol I hate hearing my voice while editing 😅
I love this
Thank you so much
Hi, I am trying to fix the "AIR" on my nike x off-white vapourmax and I did not know what to choose. Can you please help?
Love this! Thank you so much for doing this. I’ve started to widen my selection again. I currently have alpha and angelus, looks like I’m getting metallics from Jacquard! Sammybeecustoms 🥰
Thank you so much for watching Sammy! Honestly there are so many gems in the different brands, definitely definitely check out the metallics, they are like a buttery galaxy, don't need that many layers and you're like "wow"
Angelus is my favorite by far! I've been using it for the last 3 years!!
Can’t go wrong with the OG
@@CESTLAVIC great video!! Thanks for doing it!
@@expressimageartistry1524 Thank you for watching, seriously it means a lot to me!
Too funny!!! I am actually doing an experiment like this too…but not as advanced. You make my work easy. I found that Angelus and Jacquard were both similar…but Alphaflex wasn’t nearly as good. And in my test I didn’t notice the peel factor for jacquard. So good to know.
A flexible additive seems lame 😆 more money to pay too!
I noticed how easily Alpha scratched and flakes off.
Babe we need to see the results from you ASAP! Like I said, I can't replicate lab conditions, so the more people actually test them next to each other, the more accurately we can gauge which ones stand up to the elements.
Yeah I would highly encourage Alpha to just mix in their additive to the formula. They have a kickass white that is BLEACH WHITE, I use religiously. Just can't be bothered to mix 101 colors on the reg with additive though
@@CESTLAVIC okay I might have to hurry up and share it. Not nearly as advanced or fancy as yours. Yours is the Lamborghini experiment and mine is the Honda Civic 😆
@@HJartistry No such thing! Swatches are supposed to be simple and easy, I just like to make my own life miserable for months editing this sh*t LOLLLL
@@CESTLAVIC Just posted the video...not nearly as epic as yours hahahah
@@HJartistry Need to watch, then share! Can't wait to see it! I'm sure it will be just as informative and people need a second/third/fourth opinion!
Was a protector used before the scratch test?
Much needed video. However I'm team angelus all the way. They never done me wrong and I have no desire to stray away from it.
🙏 appreciate it! You have to use what works for you, always!
Thank you for this, new sub here, do you have any experience with longevity of jacquard fabric vs angelus? Looking to paint synthetic uppers. TIA!
is there any painting to paint the foam part?
Can i use acrylic colors ??
Can I use these paints on a pair of cool grey 11s?
I'm trying to paint the nike rn fabric shoes. Need flexibility so it doesn't crack they are my workout shoes. What paint is the best for that? ❤🙏🏽
Did you figure it out?
What does it mean if the paint remains sticky or tacky??
Loveee this thank you!!! Would you say tarrago has the exact same durability as angelus then? If so I’d love to give their colours a try, I love the colour system and can see them expanding in the future
I felt like a lot of tarragon down falls was just to being a newer company, will be nice to see where they are heading!
@@itsMLCKA I painted a pair of customs with Tarrago and wore it on vacation in Europe for over a month, paint lasted pretty well. A bit of crinkling around the toe box that happens with Angelus too, so I would say that it does have the same durability! Their colors are really pretty, please do give it a try and get back to me about what you think
What did you use to remove the protective layer? Alcohol?
Vicky doing work over here 🤘🏼
😁😁 thank you for always having my back big homie, appreciate you so much!
Snobby penguin lol XD
Is it just me in Canada… but why can I only find the Angelus with the same terrible opening bottles as the jacquard?? I have to buy squeeze tops separately, HELP!
Can i save brand new Jordans that I used Walmart acrylic with?? They started chipping the first time I wore them
Which liquid did you used for removing protecting coding?
Can I dye my green sneakers black?
What color for Jordan fire red 4s
It helps if you lay down a white base before applying a yellow to black leather. So you are not being fair to the way you use your paints.
How much all that cost?
Good to know, no Jacquard for me! The way it peeled off... nope.
Vic doing us all a favor 👆
From Tanzania I would like to be expert in this project help me please
She can’t get over the packaging 😂😂😂😂
LMAO it killed me. While I was swatching, I was cursing up a storm. I'm a neat freak
Yellow is a biatch no matter what brand you use. It's my arch nemesis. I hate it.
😂 I feel you. But with the proper prep, proper paint, I think it could be acceptable.
invest in the Angelus collectors edition thunder yellow. I know it's expensive but it is so worth it
