We're GeniusCreps, sneakerheads at heart, founded in the fast-paced city of Manchester. With an admiration for Nike AirMax and a collection to match, we found ourselves constantly battling the wear and tear of northern weather and city walking. Our own shoes took a beating — and that’s where our journey began.
What started as a personal mission to restore our beloved pairs turned into a passion for crep restoration. We realised that if we could bring our own kicks back to life, we could do the same for others — sustainably, creatively, and with care.
Since then, we’ve grown a genuine love for trainers of all kinds, no matter their condition.
As our skills and tools expanded, so did our imagination. We moved beyond restoration and began creating custom colourways and styles that gave each pair a new identity. Every sneaker became a blank canvas for fresh ideas.
Our business is powered by two minds. Sam is the visionary — strategic, driven, and full of bold ideas. Fleur is the creative force — artistic, hands-on, and brilliant at turning concepts into reality. In short: Sam dreams it, Fleur produces it.
Together, we’re the perfect team- it's genius!
We’re proud to be a family-run business with a growing community and a mission to help others elevate their kick game. Explore our work, from restored classics to custom designs, and discover how we can bring your dream creps to life!

Shoes just landed, absolutely amazing and top quality custom design! It is brilliant that they are pre-owned, saves them going to waste.
