Personally, I would suggest adding shoe trees inside for the finished products. It would make the end product look 5x better especially for your restorations. Just my 2cents though, keep up the good work man remember when I was doing this back in 2010 haha
Does anyone know how to reshape the back portion of the Jordan 1 so that it’s straight? All I’ve been able to find have been videos on how to reshape the toe box.
@@Shotsbymikey i really Like your Videos and your Work and i know you Skated yourself, but First off the wear of the shoe is like 1 little session or even only 3 kickflips and some ollies. Second is you didnt damage the sole which is what you also do at skating. Over all the shoe looks really nice either, make sure you'll go on with your videos. PS sorry If there are some english failures cause im not english or american
Kinda just messed up a perfect pair of Breds and royals, the whole purpose of the distress is you wearing it a ton. If your just painting it to make it “old and worn out” it literally serves no purpose. Wear your sneakers so they look like that naturally. Otherwise good video!
This isn’t bad. Lots of people criticizing there paint overkill. I think it doesn’t 100% replicate wearing them over & over again...... but one way to improve, is to kind of drag the scuffing all around the shoe even if it’s just lightly 🤷🏽♂️. The reason is bc w/o doing the whole shoe, the contrast doesn’t look aesthetically appealing when there’s panels that are shredded and then panels that look like they just released in stores that weekend. Even the untouched part on the OG shows some kind of wear just throughout time itself. This is just my opinion tho
Throw them in the washer with bunch of clothes, let it run it’s cycle. Dry overnight. It will take off gloss loosen up color off the leather so next time you wear them they will crack in all right places. Easy
Yeah, no. They don’t look natural at all. It just looks like you painted spots on them. Not gonna lie, I’m sure you’ve gotten better. But yeah keep practicing and you’ll get there
lol what people do for fashion; i would of just kept rocking those kicks and let it ware and tare as it be, story is told by rockin them not by posing and forcing the distress . . . what a bore✌🏾🙏🏾🐜cracking feature was the only thing that was decent, but still, i wudda just rocked and skated in them✌🏾🙏🏾🐜mahalo family🙏🏾✌🏾🐜
it doesnt have anything to do with "you should let it naturally age" or not this is just a bad custom I've seen great faux aged customs sold on gariled even seen some on youtube but this ones bad u kinda just ruined a pair
I don’t like the trend, I think you should just wear your shoes to that point not fabricating that. I see it as buying skate shoes and not actually skating them and just rubbing your shoes on grip tape without actually putting in the work. Idk I don’t get it
It’s a cool concept, but it’s not natural at all. You made it look obvious that it was scuffed on purpose. Kind of needs that oh damn I scuffed my shoe but looks good look. Still dope just looks too obvious if you get me. Doesn’t look aged looks like overdone. Beige paint wasn’t necessary at all. Should have banged them up against something to make look natural.
These look like 🗑. This doesn’t look natural. If you want to get this look. Buy a pair of shoes and start wearing them. Create your own memories and let it happen naturally. If I see someone wearing these, I’m roasting them. If I see someone with shoes that aged naturally... ✊🏼
Interesting idea but it doesn't look like natural wear. Overkill on the sanding, especially on the toebox.
Overkill on the paint imo
Less paint than all other pairs floating around that’s for sure. Thanks for watching.
@@Shotsbymikey i'm sorry but these looks absolutely terrible
you had me until the paint.
💯
I should make a tutorial 🤔
I think a lot of people would appreciate it bro.
need that 🙌
We all waiting on YOUR tutorial for sure. These just aren’t as good
Make one pls
please
Just tie them on the bumper and drive around the block a few times
How to age the laces?? Make them fade in color???
or... what if i just wear them the way it's supposed to be? like wearing your sneakers?
Could you possibly do a tutorial on making or actually yellowing soles and netting of Jordan 5 Fire Reds like Philthy.
I want to do the opposite and add a gleam to some matte finish sneakers. Any advice?
DOPE VID MAN. im new and learning to custom so this is epic
The new take on the lance mountains!! Nice !
I wont do this😐
Cool concept, @celinefien & @joeyhamilton are the best at this “trend” imo
And philllthy
It is still looking fresh...

Should custom Jordan 4 and 5s! need a good tutorial on yellowing the mesh on them haha! Awesome video my guy!
Best tutorial on TH-cam so far but I don’t think I’m doing this
Bro I been looking for tutorials just like this od. U the goat

got my court purples in yesterday from him. so fire don’t hesitate with his work 🔥
have tried to use them normally?
If I were to do this should I apply a finisher to it once done?
No finisher!
Shit! Just skate on them Bad Boys. GUARANTEED Beat
Cleannnn , im feeling the royals 👍🏽 I think that midsole made the difference
bro mikey is so fucking underrated man, like genuinely what the fuck
I appreciate you you bro!
Do you restore kicks as well?
He is under appreciated
thanks for actually doing the tutorial very cool 👍🏻
this cool but let this happen naturally
This is meant for those not wanting to wait 35 years for their shoes to age.

Those royals 😍

You're so Amazing bro!
Damn bro how you go from killing the court purples to this
or you can wear them.
Don’t forget the laces!
Could’ve dyed the soles with candle wax and salon care, it’s permanent.
Wym?
Royals defeated the breds 100%
I've been waiting for this video . Gonna try this on my royal blues
Worn or beat...
Yeah, no. They don’t look natural at all. It just looks like you painted spots on them. Not gonna lie, I’m sure you’ve gotten better. But yeah keep practicing and you’ll get there
This came out great! Been looking for someone to teach us phillthy’s distress look

PLEASE ONLY DO THIS ON REPS!
ankle collar looked better without the paint
Definitely an acquired taste and look. Thanks for watching!
That doesn’t look like natural wear to me at all...the paint is too bright or something...there’s just something off with those...way off
Not sure how I feel about this
I agree
You messed them up you did a totally wrong
what would you do differently?
.....wtf why
The white parts are too white. But otherwise, good job
Waist of money on shoes if this is what you are planning to do tbh but great video
it doesnt have anything to do with "you should let it naturally age" or not this is just a bad custom I've seen great faux aged customs sold on gariled even seen some on youtube but this ones bad u kinda just ruined a pair
If you want it to be more realistic as a skate shoe give it horrible heel drag
Why would you do this to the shoes? Just fcking wear n let it wear out
You just destroyed a nice pair of iconic sneakers
Well done :(
The result on the 7min are already enough and sic. You went TOOO much bro. Like, REALLY.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Looked dope until you painted them. Just stick with the tool and paper in my opinion
Looked better before the paint. It fucked up the whole thing. These were overworked
Deff not a fan at all 🤮 I could never bear to do that to my 1s
I don’t like the trend, I think you should just wear your shoes to that point not fabricating that. I see it as buying skate shoes and not actually skating them and just rubbing your shoes on grip tape without actually putting in the work. Idk I don’t get it

Really fucked up Banned 1s for that. Just wear your shoes if you want a distressed look.
Sorry bro but tbh they look terrible now and absolutely not vintage, just kinda dirty
Lol, Or just worn it
Or just wear them 🤷🏻♂️
IMHO it doesn't look great, sorry. Let that aging happen naturally.
Wake me up in 35 years when they age.
I like idea but does not look natural at all. Better off wearing them to skate in and after some serious work they'll look naturally distressed.
These look anything but natural. Ruined.
Butchered these with the white paint. Looks so unnatural and quite unnecessary.
These look like 🗑. This doesn’t look natural.
If you want to get this look. Buy a pair of shoes and start wearing them. Create your own memories and let it happen naturally.

Agree with everything you said! Wear your shoes!!!!
lmaoo who cares let people do what they want with there shoes.
That ain’t it 😅
Lol
looks not natural. i feel artificial feeling from your result .. sorry .
what a wasted expensive sneakers.
Sorry, but looks bad. Looks destroyed, not aged
i got an idea when it comes to making them look worn... just wear them 😐
nice vid anyway tho
these are bad man...
Lol these looks like an ‘85 dog turd
This ain’t it chief
This looks so bad.
Looks horrible bro 😂😂
Lmao 🤦🏽♂️
wtf is this
