How to fold an origami sneaker
A white strip at the bottom makes the sole. Folding the top behind and one long slant down to the toe shapes the shoe, and a pen adds the laces.
You need: 1 square sheet, any size, and a black pen. Easy, 4 steps, about 5 minutes.
Steps
- Fold the sole. Start coloured side up. Fold a strip at the bottom up, about a ninth of the height, to show a white band. It's the sole.
- Top behind. Fold the top part behind so its edge lines up with the bottom of the sole.
- Slope the front. Fold the top right corner behind on a long slant, from just left of the middle of the top edge down to the right edge.
- Round the corners. Fold the top and bottom corners at the heel and at the toe behind a little, so the shoe looks soft and round.

Draw criss-cross laces down the slope, the ankle opening at the back and a line round the toe.
