Full Scholarships Available for Sneaker Design Summer Camp
CCS is excited to offer 6 high school students an opportunity to attend the College’s Precollege Sneaker Design Summer Camp online at no cost. This three-week program gives high school students the chance to prepare for CCS's Product Design program where graduates have gone on to work for Nike®, Adidas®, and Puma®. All students entering the competition will have their work judged by CCS faculty, but only 6 will be offered a scholarship for the three-week, online program.
Competition Winners
Six Sneaker Design Competition Winners will be selected from all submissions by a jury of CCS Product Design Faculty. Each winner will receive a full scholarship to attend the College for Creative Studies online “Athletic Shoe Design” program.
THEME: CCS is asking students to envision what their signature sneakers would look like. Are your dream sneakers designed for competitive sports like soccer or basketball? Or are they designed to be worn on the streets? Maybe on the red carpet?
Design a sneaker for any of the following activities: Basketball, Biking, Boxing, Hiking, Rock Scrambling, Skateboarding, Football, Soccer, Streetwear, or Tennis. Include your inspiration images and at least 3 drawings of your own original design that demonstrate color choices and different perspective views.
