The Design Process with Alexander-John | Personal Space | StockX

Sitting in an undisclosed studio outside of Atlanta, Alexander-John is quiet. It’s a stark juxtaposition to the numerous loud, brightly colored Puma RS-X Mixtape sneakers lining the shelves behind him. The same hip-hop inspired sneaker that he dropped 30 pairs of at ComplexCon in 2018 and immediately sold out. Building enough hype to cue Puma for a larger release of the shoe in December of 2019. While this would be a momentous win for almost any sneaker collaborator, this is just another addition to an already impressive design portfolio for Alexander-John. From Puma to Reebok to adidas, and more, he has gone from customizer and hobbyist to now sought after designer. StockX recently caught up with the designer to talk about his creative journey, and how his studio space informs his work. https://stockx.com/news/personal-space-alexander-john/
