CAPSOLE Delivers Instant Personalization of Converse Shoes

PORTLAND, Ore. - Oct. 6, 2014 - PRLog -- Bold, stylish, and the epitome of personalization, Capsole has introduced the easiest way to instantly customize one of the world’s most recognizable and popular sneaker brands. The Kickstarter Campaign at https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/528013543/capsole-the-only-accessory-for-converse-chuck-tayl allows fans to help bring to market a unique and simple way to individualize Converse sneakers in a matter of seconds. Infusing new, modern DNA with a simple snap.

“The inspiration came from not being able to customize my shoes in a way that was personal to me. So I began to develop my own,” said creator Dominick Guglielmo. “Capsole at its very core is an accessory that allows you to embrace your unapologetic style. It simply delivers the best design ever to personalize your favorite shoes.”

With more than 40 million highly engaged Facebook fans, in addition to photo sharing sites Pinterest, Instagram, and Tumblr, tens of thousands of Converse fans are seen expressing and sharing their personalized style and design with the world. Capsole pushes that boundary even further. Allowing fans to use their sneakers as an extension of their mood, personality, or even supporting their favorite team.

Guglielmo and his team have spent nearly three years developing prototypes, measuring thousands of eyelets - which can differ in size significantly - and perfecting materials and size. Capsole is designed and engineered to enhance the appearance of the sneaker while staying true to its function. The unique technology allows each Capsole to be tight enough to stay flush in the eyelet, yet removable so they can be swapped in an instant.

“The Converse and Kickstarter communities are always looking for ways to express themselves, we believe the two are a perfect fit to bring Capsole to market,” Guglielmo said.
