Just today I´ve got my ´08 Kaws pair back from my local shoemaker. Went in there with the same exact problem of a desintegrating sole but I actually had a period correct replacement sole from a trashed patent leather pair on hand. The dude compleatly butchered the stitching and the reglue isnt the best either... These turned out soooo clean. Im happy for the owner but kinda sad now that im presented with how it could or rather should have been done... :( Great job Vic, as always
Man my dream restoration for you to do is the silver surfer bapestas. They seem crazy difficult but those are some of the best shoes of all time for me lol.
I just had one question, how come not dye the sole/midsole as black as possible to make it the black on black like it was? I get the white to to make it pop, I just was confused why not keep it as og as possible
Damn those came out incredible. The white soles pop so hard the only thing I would change would be to white laces to go with the soles. Other than that you absolutely killed it. Love to see vape shoes nobody ever has them. Alot of people think they are corny and a dunk rip off but I think they are sick as fuck. Amazing results 👏
Came out looking sick AF. I may have a pair I don't recall ever seeing you do anything with. How about the Grey/White Air Vick 2s from 2015? LOL. Idk why but the Grey/White Air Vick 2s have bee a favorite of mine since they came out. Mine are still in pretty good shape (as far as the whole upper goes) but both air bags are blown out, the soles are pealing apart and they're yellow as hell. I know Nike will never do a remake of them but really wish they would just so I could get another pair to wear once again. I'll send you a few pics and whatnot and see what you think.
Hey Vick, i've noticed you have slowly started moving away from angelus paints and stains. Anyway you can elaborate on why? I'd imagine it's because angelus paints always clog up in the airbrush. And the suede dyes always rub off even after setting up. I've personally had a lot of issues with them.
I think it would’ve been cool to keep the shoe original or like as original as possible by using rep bapesta soles instead of the af1 soles but it still a cool restoration
im impressed how much the re-dye/paint actually made these look brand new. Vick always got the attention to detail on lock
Its what sets him apart!
@@RESHOEVN8R.. I have a pair of shoes that need done how can I get on the list?
Good job Vic
Thank you 🙌
A black Jordan 4 sole on these would have been dope! Black cat bapestas 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Bape Air. Beautiful 🔥🔥🔥
Glad you like them!
Looks better with the white sole! Good job!
Well done Vick you’re doing a fantastic job Fam
Thanks so much!
The white sole made a huge difference. Dope!
We appreciate your feedback! Glad you liked the video.
The white mid soles made a big difference in the look 🔥🔥🔥
love the attention to detail and what you do to bring a shoe back to life
Love it that it became a hybrid! Very curious to see other special restorations!
More to come! Thanks for the support Jeffery!
white AF1 sole worked so well with this! Leave it to Vick to save these shoes!
They really did! Thanks for the feedback Ace!

VICK🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
🙌 🙌
Much better than Panda dunks 😅 nice work Vick 👌🏼🔥
Appreciate that! Thanks for watching.
Looking good, would have gone for a black stich on the sole though
How much time you waiting to contact cement glue To unite both parts
Black thread on the sole would have looked sweet.
where to buy the air unit?
That dude had a tv news reporter voice. 😇😇😂
HAHA lowkey
Cold.

How much brother I have two pairs of Air Force 1's from 08 that need sole swaps and the leather inside the shoe collar treated
Thank you for reaching out! Unfortunately we are not currently accepting any new projects at the moment!
They couldn’t have been done better 👌🏾
Vic the shoe looks way better sticks out way more I honestly would of been upset if you did you a different sole other then the Air Force one🔥😂
We agree!
Do the Jordan 1 with the sb bottom!
When Do You guys store open back up 😢
I have an old Jordan 11 Columbia sample from 2000.
First comment I hope i been watching Vick from the beginning
@cracks_n_crumbles_9349 beat ya to it 😩 We greatly appreciate the support!
best way to start the week off! shoe looks sick with white sole Vick. Good call 🫡
Most definitely!
Vic,why don't you try sole swapping a lot of kicks😁

When did Vick start growing grey hairs 😂 great restoration hopefully i can send something worthy for a video
I got some old roadstas I would like to see you sole swap or find a donor. If you’re up for the challenge.
Send some photos to Jordan@reshoevn8r.com
Vic u tryna get somebody sued u shoulda shaved the air off the mid sole 😂😂😂
I think it would’ve been cool to keep the shoe original or like as original as possible by using rep bapesta soles instead of the af1 soles but it still a cool restoration
💪🏾💪🏾🔥🔥💯💯
Why not dye the sole white to black? Also you should of clean the suede and re dye the upper before you glued the soles on
Only thing I would of changed was the thread would of been better black
Point is, Bape fans dont want an "air" they want "bape" 😂
💪🏿😎
Thanks for watching!
Love the white midsoles! Definitely makes the shoe stand out more imo 🔥
We agree! Thanks for watching.
"pop" is the slang. Totally agree!!!
hmm i have some older bapestas that could use a refresh....
Glad we could help with some inspiration!
Vic u getting old ? i see some greys up there 😂
Air Bapes 😂 thay look good
Yeah but the black soles have bape on it and the w&b ones say air now he got some air bapes lol
These are Bapestas aka foot soldiers.... Not AF1s
The soles are Air Force 1's
U know i dig the videos... i just gotta give a hard time lol @@RESHOEVN8R
Man Vic sorry But this one of ypur worst ones ngl. Hate the sole swap
