Me too I noticed that too. Dude used water on the suede and the suede soap he used wasn’t needed.. suede should be brush with a certain brush and if there’s dirt spots or small scuffs u can use a shoe eraser that u battery run on the markings on tryout suede. Don’t ever use water or soap for suede

@@suzynobles34 these are designer shoes. They don't have cheap black rubber soles obviously. Instead it should be light coloured leather.

I can´t ignore the feeling something went wrong with the restoration of the suede. Besides, that color is way different to what it should look like as new. Good job but not quite...
Very satisfying video to watch and most of it relaxing to watch. Perhaps if the color was requested to be changed, investing the time to fully mask the shoe and use an airbrush for the dye would have been better. Certain leather dyes (especially suede dyes) do not distribute evenly unless the applicator itself provides an even spread (which is extremely difficult with a paintbrush) and the leather type accepts dye and/or diffuses it evenly (which suede usually does not). Anyhoo, my two cents as a leather artist. :)
I studied fashion design and currently work in the industry and to this day I'm still fascinated at the strength and wide use of glue in shoe making. In my head stitches are the number one way to secure fabrics, trims etc and glue is usually a rare component.
This is why I find it very funny when the hardcore Historical Accuracy people on costube go "screw it" and wind up hotgluing things together. (Usually with hats, where I don't think hot glue's tendency to not stick very long if pressed would be an issue.)
So many people do not apply suede dye, very professional job. I thought you would have brushed the suede again after the dye was dry. Is it not possible to get suede extremely soft again/ like new, after it's been used to that extent?
@@wisdomfox857 I'm curious about the cost as well, just because even though they said these were very expensive shoes to begin with, and let's even say this person were selling these shoes, now that the shoes have been used, and restored, could the restorer even reasonably ask for two day's worth of pay for them??
What an artist and craftsman. Kudos to the lady who used her shoes until there was nothing left, and the gentleman who worked miracles on restoring them. Here, such quantity of work would cost more than a pair of new shoes.
I bought the exact same pair of flats for a very good priced (authenticity checked as well) now I want to repair them as well, I am curious as how much it'll all cost
Honestly my only thing was ... why didn’t he sand down the toe box to take the scraps away from the front instead he just painted over them he should’ve taken the finish off the leather and then painted and refinished the toe box after sanding down the damaged areas
You can see if you look carefully that the shoes have faded unevenly (and he also mentions this) so that's why the color looks blotchy when he applies the new dye.
What the hell is this new color? Chanel shoes are black and beige, not yellow! Beige is one of the signature color of the brand, now the shoes look fake. What a mess...
I know, one of the whole points of this shoe is the beige color. It's a classic. The yellow color just didnt look right. And they are still stretched out and misshapen.
I wish they would say how much the work costs. I’m curious if it is something that is actually cost-effective? Or if people only do it because they are sentimental about the item.

I don’t like the the color Choice, but those are not splotches. They are the fibers laying in different directions. Suede and leather has a “nap“ which leaves fingerprints and marks when fibers are touched and oriented differently. Kind of like rubbing a silky sofa or blanket, and how the fibers turn different directions and you can draw patterns or write your name if you brush them one way or the other…… And then brush it all back the same direction to erase it and start over. I’m pretty positive 95% of those marks and splotches are fibers oriented differently. Which is magnified by the Bright studio filming lights. I’ve done a lot of leather work. Designing and making my own patterns, doing small repairs, and even complete large scale restorations. Spent years collecting and making my own leather tooling based from and think cobblers and leather workers equipment. Then finding and meticulously restoring three vintage leather sewing machines. It’s a small part of my workshop, but I very much enjoy leather work. I am NOT a professional. I am simply a full-time self-employed woodworker, who has learned leather simply because I enjoy it.... and because sometimes it is necessary in my work. I love restoring rare violin cases made from fine alligator and other leather materials. From the mid-1800s onward. I don’t work with suede often. I find it more difficult than even the most fragile alligator, or lizard/other reptile. However, suede and even coarse grained leathers can easily have that splotchy look. Even when new. They should have brushed the fibers all the same direction for the final film reveal.
That restoration takes 2 to 4 hours max for both shoes, there is no way it took you a couple of days, unless it's due to the recordment, placing the camera, etc. The sole is not completely even after sanding and I'm not a fan of that color dye you used, but it was probably the owner's choice. Good job overall :)

@@non-binaryduck maybe because he replaced leather with cheap black rubber? Its like restoring an old table but the legs you replaced with plastic. It's ugly and uneven.

That restoration takes 2 to 4 hours max for both shoes, there is no way it took you a couple of days, unless it's due to the recordment, placing the camera, etc. The sole is not completely even after sanding and I'm not a fan of that color dye you used, but it was probably the owner's choice. Good job overall :)
I don't know anything about shoe restoration or restoration in general but why is everyone hating on this guy. I'm not defending him I'm just curious ☺
@@non-binaryduck maybe because he replaced leather with cheap black rubber? Its like restoring an old table but the legs you replaced with plastic. It's ugly and uneven.
Don't know why i am watching but its so good.
ขออคุณความรู้การซ่อมรองเท้า
His skill is amazing
$750 for those shoes even as originals is a joke.
How much is a repair like this? I wonder to understand the ratio between the investment in shoes like this vs repair that needs to be made.
Ngl still looks terrible after restoration. Esp the color.
the original shoe probably looked like that too, he isnt "fixing" the shoes, hes just restoring them
oh wow okay i just finished the video,, and yeah it looks kinda patchy, i doubt that the original looked like that
@@meghalok Yeah it's very patchy, but even then I still think it's the wrong colour entirely. I assume the original colour of these specific Chanel ballet suede shoes were nude ones. This recolor, even with patchiness, isn't nude
@@goodnight2931 yeah well i have no experience with shoes, and i can picture the original being both nude or yellow. either way the outcome looks very unprofessional
An art form. Thank you for sharing.
Thumbs down for the mink oil used.
what is mink oil and why u hate it?
@@batman1542 he explained in the video
@@batman1542 It’s cruel to the mink.
@@thisisausername4459 I dunno what a mink is, likea color or smth?
Marvelous work..!! That was a fascinating video to watch..!!
It's probably contact cement, I do this all the time with a heat gun while leather working. It makes for almost instant adhesion
How much does it cost to fix this? Would it be cheaper to just buy a new pair?
I love these restoration videos!!! 🙂👍
How much does a refurbish cost compared to buying a new pair?
This isn't even a full restoration That's not a whole sole replacement that's a half sole
Wait I thought ballet dancers literally snap their shoesoles in half?
These are actually what are called "flats" also known as "ballet flats", they're not proper ballet shoes.
I love it when people know How to make things Last longer!
