I Recreated Luxury Sneakers on a Budget
ฝัง

- The genre of hand-dyed sneakers like the 11ByBBS Bamba look awesome but are typically very expensive, often retailing at $500 or more. We're dying our own sneakers on a budget: can we replicate the aesthetic, or just ruin a brand new pair of white Asics? Let's find out!
-Materials used in the video-
Rit 'Dye More' for synthetics: amzn.to/3rbKzJ6
Angelus leather paint (black): amzn.to/343rpvX
Angelus leather paint (purple): amzn.to/3GbaSmA
Acetone: amzn.to/3u7mNj0
-Additional useful items-
Bucket or container big enough for shoes
Gloves to protect hands from dye
Something to weigh down shoes in the dye
Cloth to apply acetone
Paint brushes and cotton pads to apply paint

wearing boris while playing with dye is absolute bravery/insanity. Looks goood! Please more!
Wouldn't that just make them better though? ;D
@@Fumwum ant x Boris. Sold out in minus one minute before launch.
I was trembling after i saw that
These genuinely look really good!
Thanks!
I think Antwon should do gray dye next. Or black.
agreed, the colour wouldn't be my choice but genuinely thinking about trying this, it's kind of cool
Purple was a brave choice lol
You should do another round with the blue. I would like to see how that would turn out.
It really was 😅 yeah, I think I will once i try out some different fits in their current version
I did the same with a pair of new balances, I mixed both synthetic and natural dye, and dyed them for shorter period of time, washing the dye off in the middle of the process. This method produces a more subtle, “washed out” look closer to the less vibrant tones found on the Boris’s
When I did mine I used both synthetic and normal rit dye, used bricks to the shoes in the water and didn’t mix the dye into the water too much beforehand. Have a good textured finish
Do you have any pictures of it?, I was wondering about the effects of dying them with normal and synthetic dye for a greater color depth.
FYI: The glue they use on shoes can melt if you put it in water that’s over 82°C.
learned this the hard way. Also had some slight shrinkage.
😩
How bad is it? What Shoes did you use?
@@ks220 any shoe glue can melt around 82°C, so I’d suggest putting one of those cooking temperature meters in the water and don’t dip the shoes if the water is any hotter then 55°C / 131°F
@@StvnLntz but wouldn‘t that mean that the dye won‘t really stick? oh and do you have a picture of your result? I‘d be interested in seeing it:)
The result looks awesome, dude!
HUGE fan of anything purple. ❤️
innovative king 🙏lovin the DIY !
I've only painted a prop for a short film once, but I'd try dabbing the (non-diluted) paint with a piece of cloth, dabbing most of the paint off onto paper, and then just dragging the paint across the outsole lightly for a couple passes. It's meant to give (painted) scratches to a surface more naturally and I think it'd help bring out a weathered look for anyone wanting one.
I'd love to see more of this!
This is legit my favourite video of yours. Nice work dude
They look awesome..stoked to try it
Great job! You convinced me. I’m doing this - I just need to decide which shoes to choose
I was already thinking to potentially replace the laces, so I’m glad you’re thinking the same way.
And I hope you do this again! I’d love to see your next attempt
Awesome video Antwon!! love the content
this video was super fun! seeing modifications on clothing in general is super cool and interesting & I would love to see an update if they are going for a second dive into dye 🎨
that looks AWESOME
Looks amazing also I love these sort of videos Had my eyes glued to the screen not wanting to miss anything
Antwon, I want to commend you for the ways in which you are growing the channel and diversifying your content. You always take the time to think things through, new concepts are always related to the channel's core focus and is always genuine, entertaining and informative. Not many youtubers dedicated to niche topics can say the same.
Thank you so much!
Great video, strongly considering trying this for myself!
extremely entertaining, informative and super inspiring creatively!!!!
Always loved the andersson bell 1090. Boutta do this myself now, thank you for the inspiration!
They look so good
They are cool my guy. Good job
Great video!
Love Persona 5 music on the background🥰
Looks cool 🔥
These look alot better than I expected
They looks sick 🔥
Good job on the video bruv! Been doing this for a few years on the low but seems like more an more people are starting to catch on.
I've been wanting to dye my shoes and I've been into the 11 BBS for the longest time so I really enjoyed this video! Please do more like this
The result looks so good! I would love to see you try this out again! Maybe this time you could try to mix dyes together, like use half a bottle of blue and half a bottle of grey for a less saturated navy colour. You could also experiment with not properly mixing both dyes together, to make the dyeing process less uniform... I've been meaning to try it out on some t-shirts and have some dye laying around, but I've not mustered up the courage to do so yet haha
Got the fresh kicks. Good job :)
Banger man
These go hard.
This is so cool! I've really wanted some of the Bamba High sneakers for awhile. As soon as I find a similar looking shoe I'm going to try this.
This is actually a super cool project
Love the DIY Vids
Turned out great
came out dope
You've inspired me, I'm dyeing my gray The North Face Fastpack III GTX yellow to see what happens!
Genuinely a really informative vidoe. Never considered dying shoes, but now I might. Maybe in green or grey.
pretty dope. need more of that vintage/used look to make it more bbs
I have no desire to do this to any of my shoes, however, I found this video so interesting. Keep on doing these new ideas for videos, I really enjoy them. And as always, the editing is amazing
using food and plants to dye clothes is rlly good method too
Awesome job man, this is something that is in my style. Also for loud sneakers especially this is one, you can go deep with colors. Purple goes well with blue and red so you can splash it well if you can step out your comfort zone.
Thank god that you've put a link to buy acetone on amazon 🙏🙏🙏
Just started watching, try taking a bucket put water up to about halfway the shoe, take 2 containers that can drip the dye water, and have it do a quick drip down onto the top of the shoe/side
Will be trying this now. Very nice color choice. Honestly think these look like an official-ish color. 🤯 Love it.
awesome please part 2 I have been putting off doing this have bottles of dye sitting since last year 🤣
I think I’m going to give this a go with triple white huaraches… great vid as always, Ant!
Great video
Yooo siiick!!!
i did a similar thing to my old airsoft boots and it turned out pretty great! if you wanna achieve the uneven dye look, i would suggest that to do it manually instead while being inconsistent on brushing the shoe with the dye
omfg I actually just yesterday stumbled on this amazing salomon collab and watched your video on it as well. Because of that I also searched for the video you promised to do back then, and after not finding that I looked for others who tried it. Sadly was unsuccessful but now I stumble upon this!
Had been thinking about that ever since I saw that post of the homemade solarised ACW Vomero 5. Great video, I'll give it a shot myself! Asics and Reebok are perfect for this imho
Ha! I dyed my hair last week. It was meant to be indigo, but turned out lavender purple too.
Really enjoyed this video. Would love to see more custom mods. 💜
I've got some neon orange lace lock laces on my orange & blue
Nike Free Run 2 shoes & they're great! Look futuristic, feel great, and are super utilitarian.
after over a year of being inspired by this video, im finally doing it myself with some terrex voyagers and graphite dye
Not bad, Ant!
You should totally do this with some XT-6's.
Dear Ant, I noticed that thankfully you started to wear protective gloves further down the line. You should really mention that in the beginning that this bit is important when working with Rit Dye More. Love the result! I think it would look even better if using either less of the color or mixing it with black/grey to mute it the saturation. I've dyed the Salomon Speedcross 3 before using only surface dyes (you might've seen them on the DWG discord) but after using Rit Dye More on a jacket I wanted to use it on shoes at some point as well. Glad to see that it works just as well on shoes. Will probably dye a white Salomon grey with some color accent at some point.
Look sick, definitely something you can wear as well. Have a pair of all white Nike Ndestrukts that I originally bought to do some Angelus painting but I couldn't think of anything to do on them. Definitely feel that they will dye nicely as the have a load of leather panels as well as a mesh side. Thinking green as Ive got plenty of purple sneakers and originally was thinking green when I got them.
mate, those are 😍 great idea, good execution. The multiple dye process is really necessary for the more complex colors, also when doing multiple dye use lighter colors first, and feel free to use different dye times (soak duration) for different colors, it creates really nice depth. Love the video Ant!
AND THOSE GG PANTS!!!! I need to know how they are on! I have added and removed the black pair from my shopping cart ten times in the last week. 🙏🙏
great work! its worth noting that angelus also do dyes for shoes, as well as having all the official Nike colours in their range. you can spot them online, they'll have red caps.
Sick´ ! Was thinking doin that since that girl with the green Nb p pack posted a reel on Ig. I will definitely try ! With some grey added those purple would be insane
really nice vid ! : )
Thanks!
I think it worked. It’s a success! Keep doing more!
Maybe next time to more cotton swabbing as a finishing touch.
Nice plates
Honestly this is so good it’s got me in a creative mood, I’m wondering what else you can do? Maybe a jacket or top?
For gradient is good to soak in clear water the shoes first, than dip in dye solution with less dye, take out, add dye and dip again in the darker solution
Mad Respect man- the most customisation I did was repainting the stitching black and removing an ugly logo from some noname shoes
You’ve definitely got to do a video with you experimenting with different colors
They came out absolutely fire Anterior, you gotta pair them with the pink ACG Deploy and the new pants you got and go full PINQWEAR
Just found your channel and binging through it, awesome vids!
p.s. you look like Christian Bale's lil bro 😁
I honestly like the ombre effect at the back the most. If you did a second dye of those shoes, I'd personally try and weigh down the backs so that the toes poked out of the dye, and have that effect at both the front and the back.
As an average Guerrilla Group enjoyer, I always ask about your opinion on new GG products. I was rewarded at the end seeing you with the future cowboy pants.
next time that boy shows us how to make Warhammer figures super techwear lul. love the content 👌🏼
Purple? will instantly cop lol.
I’ve always thought about doing something like this with some white Vans Sk8 His.
You definitely gave me inspiration, just ordered a Asics Gel-Quantum 180, Asics Gel Nandi OG "White" , Asics Gel Diablo "Stone Grey" , New Balance 550 "White Grey" and a Adidas Ultraboost 4.0"White" to have a go at 😁paints I ordered are royal blue, black, charcoal, white, azure, magenta and electric green
You're about to become the king of sneaker dye! They sound great though, hope they work out well 🤩
Lefties FTW!
well...now this is making me want to do this but in two tone
Sounds awesome 👀
I might try this but put the shoes in the water first then add the dye without stirring to see if that enhances the texture.
Proud owner of those acw vomero customs :)
think ypu should try next one with such pink color as ACG jacket behind you!)
I'd love to see more DIY Antwon edition
i like the persona ost in the bg
I really dig the color and the way they turned out. I may try this myself now..
EDIT: Cheeky Guerrilla Group S4-PL04 at the end? ;)
Please do! Hope it goes well for you
It is indeed - should be something on them next month but they're pretty sweet
It turned out surprisingly good! You could use a plastic modelling technique called “weathering” and use oil paintings next time.
You need to apply the dye directly onto the fabric of the shoe with either a small folded up piece of cotton or a small rounded stone and not using the bucket with dipping the whole shoe in - you got a pretty even finish. And dont use hot water , use cold water - dab on with whatever implement- dip in cold water bath wash off excess - repeat process dab on more ink- wash in cold water bath with vinegar . Some use a sponge but most sponges are not the best for this job . You can use the drag technique with folded up bits of fabric using a cotton cloth soaked in dye it comes out unreal on tops trying to create that dark stonewash tech vibe.
Suitably impressed by this video. I just wonder how the Asics would’ve looked in comparison to the BBS original if you used a grey dye.
I’ve already swapped my standard laces on a pair of Salomon hiking books (X Ultra mid 3 Aeros) with a Quicklace pair bought on Amazon which only took 10-15mins. They’d look great on your custom dyed pair
LEANNNNN BOOOTSSS
Would love to see this done on some low Nike AF1's.
Time for a update on the acronym death stranding jacket how its held up with lots of wear.
Also I swear that the only reason why it takes awhile for your to come out, is coming up with a opening.
All been great so far! Some features are more useful than others (e.g. sleeve hitch tabs which I never use) but there's so much to it that there's a lot to like. Would definitely recommend the J1A to people who want a 'proper' Acronym jacket
Repeated with a ‘dirty’ mix of dyes to produce a more industrial colours would be awesome. Also - BBS did do a season of ‘half dyed’ semi-submerged shoes
ant is climbing the fashion ladder. You better give us free stuff from the super successful collections.
🔥🔥🔥
adidas retropy p9 would be prefect for this
yoooo thats nice video
Sick
Hey Antwon mate, I'm wondering - what about buying shoes half a size up and doing this process? To accommodate the shrinkage.
