Ben Smith met up with Dave Mirra and then decided he needed his own custom painted shoe. Here's the story from Ben and a few pics.
After meeting Dave at the 2010 Susquehannock Trail Rally, I really wanted to do a shoe for him for the 2011 rally race. Since Ken Block and Travis Pastrana already had their own shoe, Dave Mirra definitely was in need of his own shoe! For the base shoe I used the DC Villain TX.
The inspiration behind the shoe was from his 2011 rally car with the upper of the shoe matching the roof of his car , with the jet black sides of the shoe finished with the Mirra logo on back vamp, and the lemon-lime DC tag, all with a final high gloss coat. All the logos were all hand painted without the use of any stencils.
