STURVY.

Sneaker care studio, cleaning and consumer products.

Origin
A physical business, built deliberately alongside the software work — proof that operations teach things code cannot.
Problem
Sneaker care in the local market was informal, inconsistent, and priced without standards.
Idea
Treat sneaker care as a product category with process, packaging and a repeatable standard.
Building
A service pipeline, then a product line: cleaning formulations, protective care, and a brand that reads like equipment rather than novelty.
Current status
Running service operations while developing the retail product line.
Milestones
    Lessons
    • Physical businesses expose weak systems immediately.
    • Consistency beats craft when you are scaling.
    • A brand is a promise about repeatability.
