Calling All Artists: Put Your Art on Rebrand Sole Sneakers
Rebrand Sole invites Los Feliz Flea artists to join a beta sneaker collab—custom kicks, artist-selected art, and 10% gross back to artists or charity. Visit rebrandsole.com to apply.
Hey Los Feliz Flea creatives — we want you!
Big news from the market: we’ve just launched a new sneaker brand called Rebrand Sole, and we’re calling all artists to join us. We’ve already kicked things off with two awesome artist collabs, and now we’re opening the doors wider so more of our community can see their work walk the city streets.
How this all started (spoiler: it involves Poncho)
For those who don’t know, Poncho is an incredible tattoo artist, a regular vendor at the Los Feliz Flea, and a permanent resident of Vintage Land/Concrete Jungle. He created a playful coloring book full of bold line work — and when I saw it I thought, "that would look amazing on sneakers." Think Vans-style canvases you could color in or wear as-is.
That idea grew into the next thing: why not build a sneaker brand that showcases artists and gives shoppers real customization options? Rebrand Sole was born.

What you can do with Rebrand Sole (the fun part)
We’re building a beta platform that puts artists’ work directly on sneakers. When you join, shoppers can:
Pick their sneaker size
Pick the color of the sole (white or black)
Choose an artist from our growing roster
That artwork gets printed on the sneaker canvas. It’s a simple idea with big creative potential: your designs become wearable art.
What artists get
We want this to be a real partnership. For any sneakers that sell featuring your art, we’ll pay out 10% of the gross to you — or, if you prefer, to a charity you choose. This is our way of showing appreciation and keeping the community spirit alive.
We’re in beta — help shape it
Rebrand Sole is in a testing phase, which means we’re eager for feedback. Join as an artist and you’ll be part of refining the platform: layout choices, printing quality, options for customers, and how we present your work. Your input will directly influence how the brand grows.
How to join
If you’re interested in participating, head over to rebrandsole.com. You’ll find an artist request form on the page — fill it out and we’ll get in touch. Whether you’re a tattooer like Poncho, a painter, illustrator, or graphic designer, we’d love to see what you make.
Come be part of something creative
We’re excited to bring more of the flea’s creative energy into wearable form. This is a chance to show your work to a new crowd, earn from sales, and support causes you care about. If you’ve ever wanted to see your art on someone’s feet as they wander the neighborhood, this is your shot.
Hope you’ll join us — let’s make sneakers that tell stories.
