My name is Sebastiaan van Leeuwen, born in 2003, and I’m from Delfgauw, a small village in the Netherlands. What once started behind a simple desk in my mother’s studio has grown into a full-fledged business where I passionately create hundreds of unique sneakers each year, for individuals, companies, and well-known Dutch celebrities.

Since August 2020, I have been running my own company “SEBASTIAAN” where I combine my love for creativity with a strong sense of style and originality. Creativity has been in my blood from a young age. As a child, I dreamed of becoming a TV presenter, and now, years later, I combine my creative work with my passion for presenting. You’ll find me not only behind the drawing table, but also in front of the camera.

Through TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and LinkedIn, I give people a behind-the-scenes look at my work. In my own YouTube series, “The Walk of Fame,” I design and create custom sneakers for well-known Dutch personalities, documenting the entire process, from the first design to the moment I surprise them with their one-of-a-kind pair.
