About me —
My name is Bohdan
Honcharenko
Born in Kyiv, Ukraine.
I studied design, construction, and art, and quickly discovered a passion for shoemaking. After mastering pattern-making in Kyiv and working with Ukrainian designers at UKRAINE FASHION WEEK (2015–2022), I moved to Paris in 2022. There, at Maurice Arnoult’s atelier, I refined traditional leather sole techniques, and since 2024 I have been working at LE SNEAKERS ATELIER, focusing on luxury shoemaking.
Inspired by Rick Owens, Alexander McQueen, and Yohji Yamamoto, I strive to merge tradition with innovation, creating footwear that carries both meaning and emotion.
I have collaborated with designers including Rick Owens and the experimental brand Matières Fécales, experiences that continue to shape my creative vision.
Today, this vision defines my own brand - a space where craftsmanship meets innovation, and each pair of shoes tells a story of individuality, culture, and art.
