How to Draw A Shoe – Let's get Started!

Step 1

While it might be hard to sit down and draw a shoe from memory if you try to, there are a few elements that we can all agree on for the structure that are the standard for all shoes.

We will be drawing a sneaker in this guide, and that means that it will have an almost completely flat base.

You can use a ruler to draw a horizontal line. Near the end of the line, you should start to curve it up, at first gradually and then more sharply.

You can then finish off the base with a very slightly curved line at the back, as you can see in the image.

Step 2 – Draw in the outline of your shoe

For this second step of your shoe drawing, we will be adding in an outline for your shoe.

This part could be a little tricky at first, so I would recommend drawing with a pencil first and then going over it in pen later.

We will take this step slowly as there are a lot of different elements to it. Starting from the back of the base of the shoe, draw in a vertical, curved line.

You can then draw in a horizontal line that dips sharply in the middle to form the opening of the shoe.

From there, you can draw in a curved line coming up from the front of the shoe's base. Once you have that in, I would use a pencil to draw a line between the end of that line and the end of the opening of the shoe.

Using that pencil line as a guide, you can draw in the sloping front of the shoe, making a few indents for the laces.

For this step, you should really take your time and refer to the reference picture closely. I know you can do it!

Step 3 – Now, we shall add in some laces

Using the bumpy indents you made in the slope of the shoe previously, you can now draw in the laces.

These may look complicated, but if you look closely at the picture, you will see that they're made up of some pretty simple shapes.

You can draw in the laces themselves using some curved lines, and then use some circular shapes for the metal rims.

Once those are in, you can finish off the lace section of your shoe drawing with some straighter lines around them.

Step 4 – Add in some details for your shoe

The previous few steps in this guide on how to draw a shoe were a bit tricky, but the last few steps are all about adding in some details!

To start with, simply draw in a horizontal line along the length of the bottom of the shoe to make the base.

Then, simply add in a curved line near the front like you can see in the reference picture.

Step 5 – Now, you can add in the final details

Your shoe drawing is very nearly done! The hard parts are over, so now you can have some fun adding in some fun details.

Using some curved lines, you can add in the details that we show in our image, but don't be afraid to add in some details of your own!

You could even draw in some accessories like buttons, stickers and other fun patterns to set your shoes apart!

If you own sneakers like this in real life, you could also try to make this one look like your own shoe!

Step 6 – Finish off your drawing with some color

With those final details, you have completed your mission of learning how to draw a shoe!

While you should be proud of this accomplishment, your shoe drawing just needs one more step to be complete, and it's a fun one!

For this step, you should let your creativity flow and color in your shoe with all of your favorite colors.

The picture we have shows just one way you could color it in, but the possibilities are endless!

You could replicate your favorite shoe brand, make it look like your own shoe in real life or let your inner fashion designer out as you create your own design!

This image would also be fun to use some beautiful different art mediums on.

You could use paints and colored pens or pencils, but you could also incorporate some fun crafts such as beads or stickers onto it as well.

I'm sure that whatever you choose, it's going to look amazing!
