About me
Ambitious and Hungry
Hey, I’m Cerbero.
I’m an ambitious entrepreneur — since I was a kid, I’ve always tried to start my own little businesses and projects.
I’m a big fan of shoes, watches, and fashion.
My dream had always been to own a pair of Jordans, but my family could never really afford them.
So when I started working, I spent my very first paycheck on my first pair of Jordans.
They were the: Air Jordan 1 Mid Gym Red and Black.
Nothing too crazy, but I loved them (I’m a sucker for red).
Still… I felt like just another face in the crowd.
Like I wasn’t unique.
I Started by Selling Custom Shoes
Once I started buying sneakers, I realized everyone had the same fake Jordans.
I hated looking like everyone else and wearing the same shoes, so I started customizing them by hand.
I bought special paint for sneakers, and the first pair I ever customized was actually a gift for my girlfriend at the time.
It was a pair of classic white Air Force 1s, hand-painted with a rose over the Nike swoosh.

But Then Nike Sued Me... 😡
And I Lost Everything 💸
I started selling a lot of custom sneakers through my website and on different marketplaces.
But Nike wasn’t too happy about it…
They forced me to shut down my customization business.
That completely wrecked me — both financially and emotionally.
But I wasn’t about to give up.
So, after a few months working random jobs, I started selling the leftover shoelaces I still had in stock.
And instead of being scared off, I went right back to those same marketplaces — but this time, just selling laces.
And that’s all, folks! 👋
That’s been my life and career since I was born in Spain.
I moved to another country and I’m trying to make a living from my businesses.
