Prada knows what it’s doing. Most people who can afford these bags will just buy a new one every few years. Why I’m such a fan of Steve, he’s fighting against our disposable-based marketplace!
Or more. I watch people on TH-cam buy bags constantly. It's ridiculous! I usually get a new bag every year. I get mine from outlets stores or Marshalls though. I was excited to find a cobbler to repair my favorite crossbody strap for $20. My puppy chewed it. I was so upset bc every place I called wanted $90, which is more than I paid for the bag. Anyway next week I'll get my fave back:)
STEVE, You are doing a great job by turning this highly profile ladies bags into one of the best then they will capitalize on good work to do on their next job and sell it at high prices. So you are the best. Take a look the kind of leather they used and kind you used , yours is more better than what this expensive company used . YOU ARE THE BEST AND STAY BLESS.
If Prada wanted to save money by not using a leather lining and had used instead a plain, uncoated, decent quality fabric, there would have been no problem. The coating working loose is the shoddy result of penny-pinching. Excellent work, young man. 🇬🇧
The extra $$$$ one pays for designer garbage is the entry fee for belonging to a club I don’t care about. I hand make my own leather bags, and they last a lifetime. But I’m not trying to pop them tags.
Beautiful, beautiful work. Customer is no doubt proud. Reminds me of some designer women''s shoes that you did some time ago where you took them apart and showed that it was mostly just plastic on the inside.
Steve, 50 seconds in and you’re already triggering people with the sharpening of the throw away razor blades.. 😂😂😂. You’re a sick man and I love every single bit of it.. Ha! I was laughing out loud! 🤣🤣🤣
Man when I hung drywall for a living, I kept a small file in my nail pouches to sharpen my razor knife blades everyday otherwise I’d have gone through 100 a day
i've been binge watching your bag restoration videos and normally i'd be like "that's enough of high quality bags for me" but i'm more like "damn i need all of these these are beautiful 😍🤩"
Massive improvement on the Prada bag Steve. Looking at your hands I did not realize how much damage leather work does. I have worked with sheet metal and did not sustain that kind of damage. Here's to you sir.
I thought that looked like Bick4 coming out of that squeeze bottle. Great stuff. I have two pint sized bottles of it. Blasted through the first one, deep into the second one, so I have a gallon jug of it standing by. It doesn't darken the leather, and it softens the leather. Best stuff ever for breaking in a baseball glove. I also use it on the leather lining of my Allen Edmonds shoes, which softens them and eases the break-in. Yup, I was grumbling right along with you on Prada using cheap garbage material for the lining. Huge upgrade with the leather lining. And, we LOVE a cotton-pickin' leatherworker!!
What I love most about these videos is ways to improve my own leather bag hobby. Linings are often the most complicated part of creating a quality bag because you have to think inside out.
It’s shocking that such an expensive bag would be made with such cheap materials. One would expect to get quality at those prices. Your work has made it BETTER than new. I’m sure the owner was thrilled with her NEW bag!
Steveroo, Couldn't agree more about Prada using that cheap lining material, not for that price.... However, you made the bag look better than ever....! That beautifu lpink leather contrasting with the light blue is a winner.... Not a woman on earth that wouldn't love to have that bag and color combination...! Once again, another beautiful job by the MASTER.... Looks great Steve...GG
I really need seeing a new video by you right now- watch somebody work who knows what he is doing! I´ve been winging a leather jacket makeover for weeks, am still not done and actually never know what I´m doing. Each step is a new challenge. You really help to calm my nerves!
The full quill Ostrich has been banned in US I wanted a pair of cowboy boots. My boot maker quoted a price triple in one year, he said because they have to pull the feathers while the bird is still alive to create the large bumps so they were banned, and only what was in stock was available. I bought a pair they were made in Mexico and no Full Quill the leather with large bumps. That bag has to be very old and becoming more valuable! Enjoying your videos always a treat just finished to do list and I got your notifications. Sincerely Yours Doc
Demanding to the point of choosing the best part of the piece of leather. The choice of a more frank pink gives more modernity. Always an attention to detail that I love. Bravo!
I loved the gratuitous razor blade sharpening at the beginning. Wonderful job on a beautiful bag. Too bad the bag didn’t have a leather lining to start with. Once again you made it better than new.
Watching you do this repair looks so simple, as if I could do it, especially how you explain it and show it in detail, that's the mark of a master craftsman and artist. Thanks for the wonderful video Steve.
I’ve never seen such a poor quality lining in a Prada bag. Mine isn’t exotic leather like this ostrich one but is a beautiful quality textile that still looks perfect after 9 years of use. This was another great renovation. I started using Bick4 after you recommended it a couple of years ago Steve. All my bags love it but especially my vintage Mulberry bags which are really thick Darwin leather.
you know you could make keychains and zipper pulls out of the leather scraps. plus i like your attention to detail. you make old things look way better than new most of the time. keep up the awesome work.
Recuerdo que vi algunos videos con las reacciones de tus clientes al recibir sus zapatos o bolsos reparados por ti !!! Me hubiese gustado mucho ver la cara de tu clienta al ver su bolso denuevo !! Eres increible ! Saludos desde Chile.
What a shame that Prada put such a crappy lining in their bags. What’s more is that it looked like it was painted to make the fabric look like leather. However as usual Steve you did a masterful job at replacing the lining and making that bag even better than brand new. It is beautiful and this will be one happy customer getting this beautiful bag back and enjoying it for many many more years. Wow!
I’m the kind of guy who, if I had the skill, would make this whole lining beautiful, straight, perfect… and then go to put it in the bag and realized I stitched everything on the wrong side. I commend your focus!
Beautiful bag. I condition and clean my bags with liquid Castile soap 5 tbs in a12 ounce foaming pump dispenser and the rest eater. Works wonders on the handles and bag. Cleans and conditions. I follow with a good coating of liquid ArmourAll. Using clean cotton towel material in white.

I'm one of those hobbiest guys that you talk about in the video. Very thankful for all your knowledge and tricks.

It's because it was made to look like leather. Unfortunately, we have also seen this in Chanel bags.
I absolutely LOVE IT when you “trigger” people by sharpening disposable razor blades. I laugh my @$$ off every time! Much love brother.
Better than new!!!!
So beautiful bag and the outcome
It's hard to believe. For what these women pay for a Proda bag, it would have a real leather liner. Better then factory, thanks for sharing 👍.
Yea, it says Made in Italy, but looks more like Made in China...😀
I though this was hand made.
@@jacksbob8746Hand made, in a Prada factory, using some sub par materials.
Now that the quality has been upgraded its not "genuine" Prada bag, haha. You only pays for the badge not the quality.
The extra $$$$ one pays for designer garbage is the entry fee for belonging to a club I don’t care about. I hand make my own leather bags, and they last a lifetime. But I’m not trying to pop them tags.

I started sharpening my disposable blades, I never thought about it until I watched this channel.

“I have 24 hours in a day, two hands. And I can’t change either one. I try my best.” Love this😂.
Stunning job! I adore that lining color against the outside color. And that lining leather looks soft like buttah!!
Awesome upgrade. The owner is going to be thrilled. That bag is now elegantly perfect.
💯

That's right Master Steve.
This is how a liner should be done.
Amazing job, as always 👍👏👏
Interesting Steve! I didn't get a notification of this one!
The bag looks amazing!

This is my favorite new channel. So relaxing to see such a great artisan at work.

Beautiful work on this beautiful piece. Thanks Steve. Let’s continue!

Wow that pink leather lining is such a beautiful color…it’s amazing how thin and delicate looking it is too. The bag looks like a million bucks now!!!
It’s shocking that such an expensive bag would be made with such cheap materials. One would expect to get quality at those prices. Your work has made it BETTER than new. I’m sure the owner was thrilled with her NEW bag!
As usual far better than the original stay well from Liverpool England
That pink leather was a beautiful choice.

What a gorgeous bag! As always, you did an amazing job, too.

Better than new. Another superb job, Steve.
That is the way it should have come from the factory! Beautiful work Steve!
Demanding to the point of choosing the best part of the piece of leather.
The choice of a more frank pink gives more modernity. Always an attention to detail that I love. Bravo!
Sharpening the knife lol. Nice touch 😉
Great work Steve.
Beautiful work Steve!
Damn! It is so enjoyable watching a professional!
Amazing color change! It looks alive again!
Nice to stunning. Beautiful craftsmanship, as always.
I like light linings. It helps to see what is inside the bag.
Your work is always beautiful and excellent. Thank you!!! 🥰💖👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💯
I loved the gratuitous razor blade sharpening at the beginning. Wonderful job on a beautiful bag. Too bad the bag didn’t have a leather lining to start with. Once again you made it better than new.

It is also nice of you to mention and show the products that you're using for the restoration.
Oh man... 😁 I'm learning from every one of your videos. Thanks a lot. 👍
Gorgeous lining! 😍
As it should have been done from the beginning. Wonderful job.
Outstanding work that is only available from one who has spent years developing his skills and knowledge. Again I say well done.

I’d say it’s even straight up faux leather that’s used for the lining
You sir, are a true craftsman! Another awesome video!
Your attention to detail is amazing. What a great job you did on this beautiful bag. Thanks for the video. You are definitely the best.
Beautiful!
My Bick 4 is now in a mustard condiment dispenser. Frosted clear. Great sealing tip. Last thing that goes on my little leather projects. Thanks Steve!
I’m the kind of guy who, if I had the skill, would make this whole lining beautiful, straight, perfect… and then go to put it in the bag and realized I stitched everything on the wrong side. I commend your focus!
