Man 'tired of paying' for expensive trainers has Nikes TATTOOED onto his feet

A Manchester-based tattoo artist has come up with a novel idea to save customers money on pricey trainers – by permanently tattooing them on to their feet.

Dean Gunther, 34, originally from Bellville, South Africa, moved to the UK five years ago and opened DG Tattoo art in Ashton-under Lyne. He first started inking people aged 21 and recently went viral after giving a customer a permanent six-pack tattoo.

It looks like he’s not stopping there – with his latest design even more bizarre. Sharing his creation on TikTok and Instagram, where a video showing the art has racked up over two million views, Dean reveals how he tattooed a pair of shoes on a customer's feet.
