    I love the fact you've been inspired by the patina on your brother's guitar. As a woodworker (and a guitarist) I see the correlation between the patina and character of dyed timber, and that of polished leather: both share similarities. Long may he Elegant Oxford continue.
    Peace and Love.

    Well after watching all your videos I'd have to say this pair are my favourite restoration work you've done. Simply beautiful. Unfortunately I'd not be able to wear them, only put them on show in a glass case.

    Fantastic! The marbling technique is especially cool. I always love the magical transformation that happens when the conditioner goes on and suddenly the finish all blends together!

  • @MrReubenTishkoff

    This channel inspired me to pursue my own interest for working with leather during the lockdown.
    Now, after some time building my skills, and an impressive shoe collection I amassed in the process, I finally moved to do this exact job on a pair of tan oxfords. They are beautiful, but I fear using them and getting some damage!
    I am about to make a second pair to use on special events and a pair of boots.

    Those are absolutely the most beautiful pair of shoes I've ever seen! You give me confidence that I can continue to try new techniques, though I've not tried to dye my shoes. The Hermes Red seems to be the very best color to highlight or offset light and dark brown edges- I want to try it. Impressive techniques, Preston. Thanks.

    Here we go again. First it was bicycle restoration videos. My old Hardrock is now restored. Then it was custom and vintage axes. On to boiling and refinishing a Spanish Mauser rifle stock. Now I have to get all my 45 year old boots out and do some custom work on them.
    An inspiring job on those shoes. Takes me back to sitting with my Father polishing Sunday shoes Military MP style. It was Kiwi and the cold water. That was in 1966 or so. I also saw your leather briefcase video, if you what to try something different, look on Ebay for vintage leather ammunition pouches. Thanks for the tips, tricks and inspiration.

    One thing I have not achieved as you seemed to do with this pair especially and that is to have a balanced shine between the mirror shine areas and the rest of the shoe giving the sense that the whole shoe was mirror shine.
    Thanks for the videos and inspiration.
