    Loved this, good balance of letting them explain their business and skill set, as you know! you do like a good yarn as you're very passionate about watches, just glad you withheld ranting or explaining their passion and skill set. Bravo to that. looking forward to more "off topic".

    Portugal has a rich tradition in shoemaking and leather work. As a son of Portuguese immigrant parents, it's wonderful to see a story about a Portuguese immigrant family that earned success and doing lots of good. Thanks for the video!

    I have been avoiding this video because of the title but it was a gem. Those shoes were amazing. honestly liked before and after but the new colors will get a lot more wear. really cool topic and the video was shot and edited to perfection. great storytelling.

    Whow, A great "Off Topic"..highlighting some Wonderful People, Artisons really and a Super Family Business. Kind of a statement of the fabric of America and the importance of the value of Immigration. Now as for your shoes...Before ...you could only really wear them in say..in Monaco..! After having them Beautifully refinished ...you can wear them Everywhere..LOL !!! Great Story!!

    Betting that MSRP on these shoes in a "normal" color is probably at least 2-3x what you are into them including the color refresh. Nice job.

    Great and interesting process. Though I wonder why they didn't disconnect the horsebit while dyeing the leather. They just carefully pry the bit-rings apart from the mouthpiece.

    I only have one pair of Penny loafers and I love to wear them. Some days when I'm really tired and just want to go to school and I'm running late, I just put on my loafers and I look great with them. I wish I could wear them everyday of my life because there isn't a more perfect pair of shoes then my loafers!😁😂

    I'm curious why you decided to buy them in those colors and then have them redyed. Was it really cheaper that way or did leather spa offer you a deal for the video or did you just want to feature them in a video anyways?

    • @TheoandHarris
      @TheoandHarris  6 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      I bought the shoes on eBay in those colors, they were significantly less expensive. Then found Leather Spa and the transformation began!!! No deal with them, they just did what they do.
