As a fan of sneakers, most of us have spent time doodling and sketching sneakers at one point or another in our life. With that in mind, Nike, Jordan and Converse have come together to provide an opportunity for aspiring designers to get their foot in the door with the Future Sole Design Contest.

The 2011 Future Sole Design Contest is now underway. Those that would like to enter, and have a chance to have professional designers from Nike and Jordan Brand review your designs, can do so until July 1st. If your dream is to make your passion for sneakers a profession this is an opportunity you won’t want to miss. In previous years, design contest winners have had the opportunity to design shoes for Carmelo Anthony, take a behind the scenes tour of the Nike Campus in Beaverton, Oregon, and more.
