- Don't ruin your red bottom heels! here is A quick and inexpensive way to preserve the red bottoms of your Christian Louboutin shoes. You can purchase these plastic scratch resistant shields at your local stores that sale cell phone and tablet accessories. Some ask why? I say why not? you've spent a lot of money you might as well get as much wear with the beautiful red sole as possible.
The shoes in this video is a pair of Authentic Neofilo Patent 120s in Rouge. Available from Saks 5th Avenue
Feel free to ask questions. Thank you for watching!
Thank you for this! We are looking to protect my wife to be's Louboutin's that I bought her for our wedding day and this video was exactly what I needed. Thanks again!
you're welcome. congratulations on your marriage!
+what's up Tiffy it worked perfectly too!! Thank you again!
thanks for your honesty about the shoes hurting your feet
You are awesome. I am planning to buy my lady a pair. She's been talking about them for a good year or so. You covered my concerns about the scratch and scuffs. Hopefully she wont see your video and comments because I want her to think I really know what Im doing.
No you are awesome! Guys who buy these for their ladies are the best. And then to do the research before hand makes you super dope lol
That heel is to die for. Love it. I wonder if they still sell those.
Good idea!
I also have the Neofilo in black it cost me only 20€ (27$) at my local shoe cobbler who is a Louboutin specialist.
I'll use your tip for other designer shoes.
I was debating whether I should invest in a Loub because of the red sole deterioration issue. This sold it for me. Thank you so much for the great tips! P.S. your kid is adorable. :)
Thank you so much!
I wish I did this before I wore them. I wore them once and their scuffed up a little already:( so my next pair I am definitely gonna do this. But they fit perfect and are so comfy lol. Your heels are amazing!!!! I love them!!!! But thank you. You are amazing lol.
+Ezra Goggles thank you! I actually put them on a pair that I wore once and it still kept them looking pretty good just not perfect!! You rock for watching! Thank you
Brilliant! Thx you just saved me from going to the cobbler today! In which I was dreading
Thanks for watching. And yes I've heard some horror stories about how cobblers and completely ruined the shoes by grinding down the heel and stuffing the sides. So yes just try this first.
Genius, thanks for posting!
Thanks for this vid! Im gonna use it on my mens loafers... Glad I havent worn them yet!
Yes I wish I would've figured this out sooner lol! Thanks for watching.
You're a genius! Thank you for sharing !
loved this!! and the baby at the end lol
Lol thank you so much for watching!
You are the best. Thanks so much for this video!
Thank you so much!! You rock is right!! God bless you and the baby!!
+Grace Conzo Stovall thank you!
Nice!!!!!! Was worried about my Loubs
Yasssss girl! Thank you for sharing!
Finally! A video that actually goes through the steps. Question for you: did you have trouble getting the shield to stick to curvatures on your sole? I am not trying to cover the entire curved sole, but I do want it to cover the tip that rounds up a bit, and the shield is resisting.
Hi Joanna. No I had no problem what so ever. It went on like a charm. I actually found some a couple days ago for $2 but they are smaller so I put two together and did it that way. I'm going to upload the video soon. Thanks for watching and please subscribe!
You rock! Thank you for this!
You are welcome!
Have you tried peeling off the shield?
this is a great idea
Thank you!
Kookie dee did you mean what size shield? Lol I apologize just get the one that's for a regular android phone. They have them with two in the pack at best buy. If you buy the tablet screen size you will still be able to cut out enough round pieces to cover 3 shoes. If you're really good you can get 4 out of it but that size is rather expensive if you are only looking to cover 1 pair.
Sorry forgot to ask when yoy use the scraper to smooth out bubbles it is not a hard rigid one that would damage the sole? thanks
+Gem nope it's a hard rubber. Thanks for watching
Hi Tiffy,
Have you tried peeling it off? coz the protect your pumps does remove the red sole when you peel it off. I have watched other videos about it. Hope to hear from you soon. Thank you.
Hi Yasmin, yes it will pull the red off if you wait to try after several wears. After one or two wears you can get it off without peeling the red off but it takes a lot of strength! Good luck. Thanks for watching
Hi Tiffy, meaning after wearing the shield screen protector for 2-3 times it will not peel off the red sole?
+Yasmin Fernandez-Baladad yes it will!
I'm sorry if this has been asked and answered but after you put the shield on and wore your shoes, did you slip at all when you walked?
+ShellyIsAWeapon nope! haven't slipped one time!
Hey there beautiful what kind of zagg sheild u recommend? Is it original or glass? Or HD
Hi! thank you 😀 no HD or glass just original or else you could probably slip and fall.
How many wears do you get out of using this and did it peel off at all. I'm so worried about putting something on the bottom of them and it peeling the red paint off
i so love the red heels what size do you wear and how much were they
hi there! thank you. when heel heights are over 3 1/2 inches i wear a 39 1/2. These are at least 4 inches so they are size 39 1/2. They were on sale for $800.00 from Sax 5th Avenue.
This is a great idea. I am def going to try this. Since the shield is so thick, did you use a razor to cut it? Thanks for sharing.
Hi thanks for watching! Actually it's not that thick. The material is just really scratch resistant. I cut it with scissors
Question: Do I use the ZAGG original or the HD protectors?
Nope original is all you need. Thanks for watching. Please subscribe!
Thank You so much Tiffy!
Worn my shoes a few times and the ZAGG protectors have been amazing!
Best advice to seal Louboutins!
does the shield make it slippery to walk in on any surfaces?
No it doesn't make it slippery but it doesn't provide traction like the rubber soles do. I compared the protected shoe against the unprotected shoe on the other foot and it was more resistant to slipping on a tiled floor. However, on carpet it felt the same as the unprotected shoe. Once you get more wear on them they are less and less slippery. I hope this helps
Lol I found the size thanx .I also add a video on it check it out when you get a chance.
Hi. How long does the cover typically last? Have you ever had to replace them? Thank you in advance.
Casanova102986 hello! I still have the same
Shields on them 3 yrs later I have not replaced them. They do get dirty and nasty looking on the bottom and I have to wipe the bottoms down but I haven't replaced it. I will mention that I don't wear them much because they are uncomfortable!! But I wear them once or twice a year.
hi does this make the shoes slippery to walk outside ? thank you
Karima K nope!
Hi I have the pigalle what size should I get?
I'm sorry I'm just seeing your comment. But you definitely want to go a half size up. They fit very snug to your foot which will be uncomfortable at first. They don't get loose to the point where they will flop so wear them around the house for about a week before wearing them out our you'll be sorry lol. Thanks for watching.
Hi, can you replace the protecttor after it gets old? put a new one on? Thank you so much
Yes, you can take the protector right off when you're done and replace it with another screen shield. There are other TH-cam videos that do the same thing.
Thank you :) .....I heard it could take the red paint off though
I dont think so. I just bought my first pair two days ago and while in the store, the sales lady put some blue mask tape at the bottom in order to prevent scuffing while i tried them on in the store, because I wanted to go off the carpet and onto the main slippery floor, and when I got home, I took it off and it did not take off any paint. Im sure that mask tape was heavier than the protective shield would be. Hope this helps.
plus I seen other you tube videos like this and they took it off.
Oh ok great! Thanks girly^_^
Oh my goodness, I wrecked my brand new pair I was bought for my 40th, wish I had seen this before arhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
oh noooo! well you actually can purchase a red sole paint from amazon or Michael's and repaint the sole then protect it. i know someone who did that. kinda buff the sole a little before painting. hope this helps
Fab, they did say I could have a rubber sole put on for £35 but I wanted to take them home with me, I'm really gutted, the sole is so thin, I cant work out what its made of, looks like cork but I'm sure it cant be.
And my feet still kill today after wearing them for 8 hours on Sat (its now Wednesday !!)
Kids N' Play ok that's great advice thank you, ill do this before I wear them again. Thank you
SHIANE Rao yes I have tried to peel it off and is pretty tricky getting it off. Actually it takes alot of strength! Lol It also leaves it sticky on the bottom.
