About

Levine Zeng | Footwear Designer

My name is Levine Zeng, a footwear designer driven by a pure passion for sneakers. Growing up active in basketball and constantly sketching and exploring how things worked, I discovered early on that footwear was the one place where personality, culture, and performance came together — and that became my path.

Today, I design shoes that bridge style, performance, and cultural storytelling. I believe footwear is more than a product — it’s a way for people to express identity and feel connected to their community. My process blends positioning research, trend analysis, and brand heritage with hands-on sketching to 3D modeling, refining ideas from concept to form while balancing aesthetics with function. I am also a self-motivated, collaborative team player who is always eager to learn and continuously strives to grow.

Beyond design, I’m a true sneakerhead deeply engaged with fashion, vintage culture, basketball, and the outdoors — influences that continually shape my creative voice. My goal is simple: to bring ideas to life and create meaningful footwear that inspires people and reflects who they are.
