About Sneaker Panel Pro
Why It Exists
And Why You Need It
Footwear presents a unique challenge in that it's both a hard and soft body problem. Blender is powerful, but until now, it lacked the specialized workflows footwear designers need. Sneaker Panel Pro bridges that gap.
Footwear presents a unique challenge in that it's both a hard and soft body problem. Blender is powerful, but until now, it lacked the specialized workflows footwear designers need. Sneaker Panel Pro bridges that gap.
Two Seamless Workflows
•
UV Workflow (2D): Sketch in UV space, fill, and project back onto your model for precision patterning.
•
Surface Direct (3D): Draw directly on your shell with Grease Pencil, convert to curves, and generate overlays quickly.
1. What is Sneaker Panel Pro?
Sneaker Panel Pro is a Blender add-on that brings professional footwear design workflows into 3D. It streamlines the process of projecting 2D line art, creating overlay panels, and building accurate sneaker uppers directly inside Blender.
2. Who is Sneaker Panel Pro for?
It’s built for footwear designers, 3D artists, and product creators who want to speed up their workflow. Whether you’re designing sneakers for production, building concept visuals, or creating footwear assets for virtual spaces, the tool adapts to both professionals and learners.
3. Do I need to know Blender to use it?
Basic Blender knowledge helps, but you don’t need to be an expert. Sneaker Panel Pro is designed with clear workflows and a designer-first mindset — so you can focus on your creativity rather than wrestling with 3D tools.
4. Can Sneaker Panel Pro export to other programs?
Yes. Since it works inside Blender, your designs can be exported in common 3D formats (FBX, OBJ, GLTF) and integrated into pipelines like Substance, Unreal, or Rhino. This makes it easy to go from concept to rendering, animation, or even prototyping.
5. How does Sneaker Panel Pro save me time?
Traditional 2D-to-3D paneling is slow and tedious. Sneaker Panel Pro automates key steps like UV creation, reference image projection, panel creation, and overlay placement, so you can move from sketch to production-ready 3D models faster — while keeping design intent clear and flexible.
