Not a shoe guy, have no idea how I got to this vid. But I am so impressed with the talent of these guys, especially the sewing part. Nice video and editing too. Awesome work guys! 👍
I am not a sneaker enthusiast and found this channel by accident. I was blown away by the craftsmanship and attention to detail to restore these shoes. Well done.
I've been following them for quite awhile now,they are All the way Awesome!! I've tried contacting a cpl different ppl from the group and can't Ever get ahold of anyone!?!
i've seen a lot of restoration vids but this is on a whole other dimension.the knowledge, the craftmanship, the attention to details, the whole process are UNMATCHED and METICULOUS
This was absolutely amazing!!! I've really been loving these OG restorations and custom 85's. This is the kind of content that really pushes the restoration/custom community into a more artisan direction. Sneakerheads turned cobblers, love to see it.
I'm not a shoe guy but you cant deny talent, these guys nailed it. I love Jordan's even though I know nothing about basketball or shoes. They just look iconic.
Iv never seen a shoe deconstructed to that level. Hope it goes back together. I’m only a 1/3 way through the video, my hearts pounding seeing the shoe in pieces like that. 😢
These dudes are LEGIT magicians, they deserve every penny they make on restoring shoes, very exceptional work and I’m always amazed watching each video they post. 🔥🔥🔥
That’s One Of The Best OG Restoration Right Here It’s A Shame That Nike/Jordan Brand Didn’t Get The Shape & Elephant Print Right On The 2018 Good Thing That I Didn’t Get Em
Im glad you went with that vintage look from the paint to heel tabs to tongue, absolute masterpiece. I was shocked how you took them apart but hey thats a full restoration, amazing. Hopefully they stay in display, work of art.
I've seen some excellent restoration work done here on TH-cam, but this was honestly incredible. Probably the best restoration job I have ever seen on a pair of kicks. Amazing work you guys, ya'll should be proud!
When they took apart every piece of this shoe (lining, elephant print etc.) I thought what the hell they doing 😱 Then when I saw final product I yelled GHAD Daaaaamn then my mom came in room and asked "what happened?" So I needed to explain Her what's goin on 😅 Much appreciation for Solomon. Insane work and skills!
I'm not a shoe guy at all, I was a skater in my youth so typical skateboard board shoes which I had to make them last as long as possible. Never saw the beauty in and the hard work that goes into a shoe like that. But now I keep a look out for old nikes cause I didn't realise the value behind it either. I can sit and watch shese guys for hours. The pride, joy, experience and knowledge is unbelievable. You can see how much love and passion they have in what they do. Seeing them dismantle a shoe and getting to that point of were they just keep that momentum. I wonder how many good/expensive shoes one had to go through to get to that point? Keep it up. Show the word what people out there do that some never actually put any thought into the process of the beauty in the art work. With out the Internet one would never really see the depth of this art. High five ✋
These are my holy grails, I have all the years except CDP & 1988. Great job guys. I have a DS 2001 pair if you guys want another go at a pair! Great video. I enjoyed and learned the amount of work you guys put into this project.
John, we need to see you restore an OG 3 or 4 deconstructed then reconstructed now lmao I watch every single video from you and this channel, much love y'all!
Ive done some lightweight restos, but this is freakin impressive as hell! I wish i could elevate my talent level to theirs. The art and craftsmanship that goes into leather and shoe work is so much fun and i feel is under valued by society in general. Plz do more restoration vids guys. Helps me improve mine...ty brothers
I am addicted in restoration videos and you guys took it to another level, the art, the attention to details great job. Some shoes are priceless and you are the go to people to restore.
I’ve had the pleasure of having a pair of BC3’s restored and reshaped by Hoopfresh years ago. Solomon is such a solid dude. Kept me looped in through the whole process. Nike lowkey owes him for the reimagined series.
Speechless! You are a pillar to the sneaker community and it’s nice to see you bringing all these classics back to life. The most important part is the appreciation you have when you do these restorations. Speechless still but had to say thanks at the same time for bringing a classic sneaker back to life. Lol stay blessed
A lot of people do this with cars but I never knew you could do it with shoes too! My mind is blown. Now I know for sure that my car seats are repairable after seeing this.
I’m really curious about the path you each took to arrive where you are. Strongly impressed with your attention to every detail and implementation of what are clearly your own unique methods to solving each problem you encounter. If you are going to do something do it right, and that you did and it’s impressive. Now if I could only cram my size 11 1/2 6E into a pair of tennis shoes then we are in business!
The craftsmanship of this project was incredible, props to you guys for doing such an amazing job! I know it's an old video, so I don't expect a response, but if by chance someone from the channel reads this, how long did this project take overall?
Oh man these turned out amazing! Todd was fighting back the tears. You restored a magical memory for my man. I’m glad I didn’t follow through on tossing these bad boys in the trash 😬
I have been a sneakerhead almost 40 years Vic you guys are incredible and have me convinced! I will be sending you guys some shoes to restore very soon.
Incredibly work. Good jobs boys. I love how both of you interact with each other. The shoes came out so sick, I love this project too. I hope you guys do more !!!!!
No wonder they was $89 back in the day. I got these when they 1st came out and destroyed them, from playing all summer in em, to sneaking out my window on a hot day and getting roof tar all over the bottoms. Found a pair for back to school that had been sitting for months and got em again. My mom couldn't get why I wanted the same shoes I had already. I told her because the 4s weren't out yet. Had to get those on Black Friday
Killed it again Man! Every week I’m like how will they outdo last weeks vid and every week you do. One of the few channels that got me on the edge of my seat
I’m a really big shoe guy but don’t own good shoes. I own 2 pairs, one is a adidas boost Munchen, the 2nd one is a Nike air max 270 I paid 200 they ripped me off at that time. If I’m able to win these dunks I’ll be very happy since they’re my 2nd favorite collaboration with off white. Love you guys! Oh and btw this was a amazing restoration
...following the comments prior to mine, im not a sneakerhead. Im into shoes, but this changes my opinion about sneakerheads. I know they don't all restore OG joints. But even if u gotta clean em up a bit, touch up paint, re glue soles. The time and effort that goes into keeping these sneakers looking fresh, is forcing me to give props to sneaker restoring folk/sneakerheads 💯❤🔥
This is a perfect example of the ship of Theseus thought experiment. If you replace every old wood plank of the ship and replace them for new planks, is it still the same ship? Great work but I think it is not the same shoe anymore.
Exactly When You Put The 88’ Pair Of These Right Next To 2018 Pair Here The Shape Is Way Off The Banana Shape Elephant Print Etc To Compare To The OG Plus The OG Is Worth More That 1K These Days Back Then It Was Meant For Playing Ball In Them Back Quality Was On Point And Everything It’s Just Something That These “Sneakerheads” Doesn’t Understand The Quality Of OG Jordans From Back In Days Pre Bots Cell Phones App The Hype Etc
I truly don't understand why to "restore" these OG 3's with a MJ sig. I would just leave them as is and put them in a case. After that, I'll just pay the resale for a Cement 3 if I wanted a new pair that bad. Nothing against the work being done, but I think it's pointless.
The guy that ownes them said his wife kept trying to throw them away for years last vid. Now he has the money to restore them he plans on displaying them in a case.
@@jarredlkling I know the back story, but it still doesn't make sense. Dude need to man up and tell the wife "damn, just leave me alone about it. I'm not getting rid of them and their not bothering you."
yeah I agree, they wont be OG anymore and why not just put them in the case as is. Not that Vick and this other guy isnt capable of restoring them, cuz I know they are but I wouldn't want to risk it, they too priceless for me
What you guys do isn’t work, it’s art. I’m genuinely amazed. Literally my jaw dropped.
And you guys have amazing chemistry on camera.
Glad you liked this project! Thanks for watching.
China made materials and yall paying thousands lol fucking sad
@@MyGraphicsAndContent sad how all this dudes be spending money on cheap shit shoes to impress other dudes
i was thinking the same thing!! total chemistry they should so go on a date!
Shit looks mad forced, fym chemistry 🤣🤣
I loved how vic and Solomon were in sync when done filling in leather then they heat dry together perfect timing!!!!
We'll definitely bring Solomon back for future vids!
Almost like it was rehearsed...

Thanks Oscar, Vick is the man, incredible work
this dude is hilarious you can tell he’s a natural on the camera
That dude and Vick together is hilarious
This is the cleanest restoration I’ve ever seen, most especially with the vintage look on the tabs and the midsoles 💯

Watching someone practice their craft no matter what it is is so satisfying. Great job guys. They look amazing.
Seriously, doesn't matter what their craft is, whether its a classic car or some old shoes, the meticulous work and execution makes me so satisfied
OK, this shit blows me completely away. The shoes you guys are making are twice as well-made as the originals! Dope!
Thank you!!
Been waiting the whole week for this. Such a beauty
Hope you enjoyed it!
This is best sneaker content ever. I still can’t believe it. One hell of a job guys kudos to you two.
Thank you!
Awesome work! You can tell both are passionate about what they do. JB needs to hire Solomon. His attention to detail is amazing.
Im glad you went with that vintage look from the paint to heel tabs to tongue, absolute masterpiece. I was shocked how you took them apart but hey thats a full restoration, amazing. Hopefully they stay in display, work of art.
I've never seen a restoration go this deep, holy crap guys. You literally deconstructed the shoe and brought it back to life. Whole different level
Man!! Seeing the shoe disassembled on the table and the pride on your faces after you restored them makes me want to work on firearms again.
This a definitely a level uo for Reshoevn8r. Bro these is so clean didn't think they was gonna turn out like that. Another 🏆🏆
Thanks for the support!
I've seen some excellent restoration work done here on TH-cam, but this was honestly incredible. Probably the best restoration job I have ever seen on a pair of kicks. Amazing work you guys, ya'll should be proud!
Thank you for your support! We are very proud of the work Vick has done. 🔥
Watching these two Gents work is phenomenal .
this is one of the highest quality restorations ive seen for fashion items period, fantastic work holy shit, absolutely no detail was overlooked
Thank you for the feedback!
Facts I Wish That Nike & Jordan Brand Would Do This But They Too Lazy
Thank for you the feedback!
I admire you guys, you almost re-built the whole shoe and left it like fresh outta the Nike HQ, amazing job!!!
Solomon and Vick were too funny. This was awesome. Keep Solomon pleaseeeee
Thanks for the feedback Preston!
The amount of love and care here is aspirational
This video never gets old. I’ve seen it about 5 times already
Thank you for the continued support ❤
When it comes to restorations, Hoopfr3sh is probably the best out there, and his attention to detail is second to none. Amazing work guys!!!
He's super talented!

😱. OMG. Girl. They are signed Jordans!!!!
Can you restore yours though?
If I ever had MJ shoes signed by him, I will never wear those shoes at all.
Well then your shoes would end up like those black cements
I would wear them To my wedding
@@dsv_83 hahahahahaha, that’s broke people talk? hahahahaha ok Bill Gate
That’s literally how they end up crumbling and shitty
So wearing shoes keeps them from crumbling due to keeping the midsole springy?
I need that deconstructed thumbnail as a hq print for my wall. 😍 Perfect!
I've never known this kind of dedication to a craft.
So satisfying watching this video. True craftsmanship. Respect!!!
All that needs to be said is “Yall Did That” #Salute 💪🏾

How does one let a SIGNED Jordan, no matter the silhouette… reach this type of condition.🚮
Me personal mines would never like that especially with Michael Jordan autograph🤦🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️
It's a shoe from 88'. Perhaps they didn't have proper storage back then to keep moisture out. Idk just a thought 😂🤷🏽♂️
It’s a foam soled sneaker from 1988 lol. No matter how well you store it, take care of it, etc it will always end in these results.
It's all about restoring the autograph and the memories for these shoes.
