Frequently asked questions
We try to keep workshops to 3 attendees maximum per MBC team member. So the more attendees in each class, the more team members we’d need to bring.
This is entirely up to you. The absolute minimum amount of time per workshop would be 1 hour, but an ideal amount of time would be 2.5 hours or longer. It all depends on what level of customisation you’d like to offer the attendees.
We’re open to various locations! But we just need adequate space, tables, chairs and access to multiple power points.
No, as part of the package we provide all materials and equipment needed for the custom. The only thing we won’t provide is the base shoe / product for customisation and we’d just need you to provide tables, chairs and access to power.
Nike Dubai
Creative customisation workshop with Nike in their Dubai Beacon Store at the Dubai mall. As part of their Back to School campaign, we hosted workshops using footballs & basketballs as the canvas!
We worked with Nike sponsored sports teams to design their own piece of art with their favourite sport ball. The activation was spaced over two days with two groups of 20 students per day.
This project was inspired by our work with Manchester City Football club, creating their Player Of The Month awards for the 2023/24 season.
Nike Jeddah, Saudi Arabia
Part of our Nike Middle East tour saw us travel to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. We hosted more creative customisation workshops in the Red Sea mall store.
This art activation saw us customise balls instead of sneakers, with football club Al-Ittihad taking part across 4 youth teams using a football as their canvas.
JD Sports Foundation
Working with JD Foundation they had partnered with Bolton Lads' and Girls' club to host a customisation workshop.
There was a game mechanic to select winners who would receive a new pair of Nike AF1s to customise during the workshop.
Each winner then went over to the JD Photography booth for a shoot with their new custom sneakers.
FujiFilm INSTAX
FujiFilm asked us to host a workshop as part of their 'Soundtrack to your Life' campaign to celebrate the launch of their new INSTAX mini 99 camera.
Using re-cycled music vinyls, the attendees took pictures and customised their vinyl with their own hand drawn design, as well as taping down their new prints.
FujiFilm INSTAX
FujiFilm reached out asking us to host another workshop to celebrate the launch of their new INSTAX Wide 400, this time using skateboards instead.
Each attendee received a blank skateboard to customise with their prints and graffiti pens.
Once our team had explained the process, the guys took some pictures and started working on their designs.

We headed to Westfield Stratford shopping centre to host our first ever workshops at the Future You event.
The workshops were for 12 - 24 year olds and free to attend. Future You supplied each attendee with a new pair of trainers to customise during the session.
Each session was 1 hour long and we saw over 100 attendees over the two day period! Using paints, vinyls and stencils we taught each class how to prep, customise and finish their custom sneakers.
