How it works

  1. Upload a photo where the shoes are visible

    A full-body or lower-body shot with clearly visible footwear works best. Product photos and flat-lay shots also work. The shoes should be in reasonable focus. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB.

    Expect: Solid color shoes: 25-35 seconds. Multi-color or patterned shoes: 40-50 seconds.
  2. Describe the new color

    Type: 'change the shoe color to olive green, keep the sole white and the lace eyelets unchanged.' You don't need to mark the shoes. Specific color names with material context get the most accurate results — 'white leather' instead of just 'white.'

    Tip: If you only want the upper recolored but not the sole, say 'change the shoe upper to [color], keep the sole its original color.'

    Copy one of these to get started:

    White sneakers to all-black for dark outfit Change the white sneakers to all-black including the sole, keep the shoe silhouette and lace style unchanged
    Preview shoe color variant for outfit matching Change the shoe color to olive green, keep the white sole and the cream laces unchanged
    Red shoes to a neutral for versatility Recolor the red shoes to a classic camel tan, preserve the leather texture and the contrast sole stitching
    Resale listing — add color option photos Change the shoe color to midnight navy blue, same material and texture, keep all sole details unchanged
    2 more prompts
    Match shoes to a specific outfit color Change the shoe color to match the color of the trousers in the photo — a medium charcoal grey, keep the sole black
    Colorful sneakers to a tonal option Change the multi-color patterned sneakers to a tonal all-white, keep the silhouette and sole profile
  3. Check color coverage and edges

    Verify the shoe color is uniform across the toe, sides, heel, and tongue. Check that the sole, laces, and eyelets are still their intended colors. Zoom in on where the shoe meets the floor to check edge quality.

Quick answers

Do I need to mark the shoes before changing their color?

No. Type 'change the shoe color to navy blue' and EditThisPic identifies and recolors the shoes automatically. No selection tools or masking needed. If the shoes are very close in color to the floor or trousers, optionally add a marker to help the AI isolate them precisely.

How do I change shoe color in a photo for free with no login?

Upload your photo to EditThisPic and type: 'change the shoe color to [color], keep the sole and laces unchanged.' The AI recolors in about 30 seconds. No account, no login, no watermark on the result. Works in any browser on desktop or mobile.

What is the difference between changing shoe color and changing shoes entirely?

Changing shoe color recolors the existing shoe — same silhouette, same shape, same sole profile — just a different hue. Changing shoes entirely replaces the whole shoe with a different style, shape, or type. Use 'change shoe color' when you want the same shoe in a different color; use 'change shoes in photo' when you want a completely different style of footwear.

Can I recolor just the upper without changing the sole color?

Yes. Say 'change the shoe upper to [color], keep the sole [original color] unchanged.' The AI can recolor individual parts of the shoe independently. You can also say 'change the sole to white, keep the upper color unchanged' to flip it the other way.
