These Santoni Get a Custom Cobblestone Patina: Reworking a previous patina attempt.

- This light grey Santoni pair had been patinaed and the results were just weren't what the client wanted. (Note I did not do the original patina). The toe had too sharp of a cutoff line and the color didn't blend well with the shoe. It was also heavily unbalanced without any other shading elsewhere. I was able to adjust the color and blend the toe and add darker marbled patina across the shoe to give it a better balance.
I think I would call this one Mossy Cobblestone.
If you come up with a clever name for it please comment down below!
Featured products:
Pure Polish cleaner conditioner which I absolutely love!
purepolishproducts.com
waxes by Saphir which are always excellent.
Dyes used were Angelus and Saphir
Brushes I use are e.l.f. makeup brushes. Foundation and eye shadow brushes. I think they work better than the cheap craft store brushes I have tried and are only around $2-3 each.
Acetone is from the hardware store
Hope you will enjoy this one...I know I did!
Nothing short of a masterpiece!
Hello my dear Michael! Your work is simply amazing and wonderful! You really give the "touch" that every shoe deserves! You work miracles my friend! A big hug!!
Thanks so much man. Glad you liked it. This pair was one of my favorites.
Wow sir. You are a polish professional!
Much appreciated! I have shined a fair number of shoes 😁👍
@@mbshoedoc I can see that. Well thank you for this video. I was trying to learn how to use the Saphir mirror gloss. Not only your video was the easiest to learn from but also the quickest method. Thanks again and great content. 🙏👌👍
By far one of the most BEAUTIFUL patinas I’ve seen 😍. I wish I had a pair of shoes like this
Thanks so much! I loved this pair...wish I had one for myself too LOL. This was for a client.
Turned out fantastic, almost has a metallic patina to it!
Thank you very much. I really want to do one for myself like this.
What a transformation, simply beautiful job mate. 👍
I really and truly appreciate that. I feel this is one of my best patinas. Its very different than anything I've done before and love it.
They look AMAZING! I’m sure that the client will love them 😂
Well I certainly hope so 😁
Complete jaw dropping texture! 💯
I really appreciate it. These were a favorite of mine. I may have to do one for myself.
You did a great job! I love Santoni shoes!!!👍🏽
I really appreciate it. I still have yet to own a pair. I have worked on a few now and they were all very impressive.
Simply Stunning!
Love this pair Michael! Your Instagram & youtube videos inspired me to try my own patina on some beaten up 7-year-old oxfords. I mustered up the courage and had a crack today with a handful of Fiebings dyes & acetone.
They're certainly NOT on the same level as yours (plus I'm waiting on some neutral mirror gloss to finish them off 😂), but they look better than they did before so I'm happy with my newly patinaed mahogany oxfords and new hobby! Keep up the great work 😁👍
I really appreciate it and love that you were inspired to give it a go. I think it's a fantastic hobby and something that anyone could do. Hit me up on the Gram and let me see the outcome 👍.
Interesting project. Great Results! Nice work, MB.
Much appreciated! I have another pair just like it in the works now. New video coming soon.
They look great. To save time and guesswork you can read up on color theory and get a color wheel…. purple/violet will tone that down because it’s the complement (opposite) to yellow; Otherwise you’re just covering the old color (rather than ‘cancelling’ it). That brassy yellow wants to keep shining through.
I appreciate it, I'll give that a look. 👍
Excellent as always 🙌🏽🙌🏽
I really appreciate that. I was pretty proud of this outcome here. They turned out to be a pretty unique shoe and I loved them.
Amazing,, just flat out amazing
I really appreciate it 🙏
These are so fire
I really appreciate it! It turned out so unique. I love them and wish it was my pair. Not sure if I can but I really want to try and duplicate this for myself.
Brilliant transformation
amazing job! just found your channel as I am just now getting into this scene. these came out insanely beautiful.
I really appreciate it. This pair honestly is one of my favorites I've ever done. Love how they turned out 😍
bro, i literally just stumbled upon this channel because i saw it in my recommends. amazing channel. great alternatve to the now bigger channels like kirby allison and the elegant oxford. best of luck, i hope to see you grow it more. FWIW, i recently dyed my own pair of dress shoes for the first time from cognac to dark brown with saphir teinture francaise. it wasn't easy, and i had to remove the finish a few times with the decapant, but i eventually got a satisfactory result.
Awesome! It's been a great hobby and I really enjoy the work. Hoping the channel will grow 🙏😁. Thanks for joining in on the fun.
@@mbshoedoc cheers for the reply. i definitely want to check out your other vids. i didn't realize how intricate this stuff is until i tried it myself, so i have a lot of respect for your craft.
@@lullemans72 there is certainly a learning curve to it. I practiced on a number of eBay pairs and then my own long before touching a clients shoes. I was terrified on my first client patina 😂
Love the result. Great work as always
thanks so much! One of my most unique patinas I think.
Great job bro
Much appreciated 🙏
Well done!
Thank you very much.
Marvelous job
Thank you much. Definitely one of my favorites 🙏👍
I love Santoni shoes, have about 20 pairs of different styles. Nice vid!
Nice!! I'm a big fan of Santoni as well. I have worked on a number of pairs and they are fantastic. I have two more in the process now...more videos to come soon 👍
Sweet, look forward to seeing them. I started to hand patina a lot of my non-black Santoni shoes, wow what a difference it makes. I learned a lot from your videos and have sent many to your TH-cam channel after they see me wearing these shoes. Good stuff, thanks and keep em coming!
@@chrisdacosta4182 I really appreciate that.
Your method to give this pair of shoes more depth was quite good but I find above the medallion area the left shoe was a bit lighter than the right one. Maybe it's just my tv but having said that overall the transformation was quite good. 👍😎
That is possible. Something like this wouldn't bother me especially on a such a mottled patina. I think if it was a flat factory coloration a mismatch would really stand out and be an issue. For me the shoes should match but not be perfectly symmetrical. Now if it was noticeable while wearing them then it could easily be fixed with a bit of darker cream polish on the vamp of the left shoe. As I watched the video again it did appear a bit lighter but I don't have the shoes on hand anymore to really assess them. Keen eye my friend.
@@mbshoedoc oh thanks for the compliment. I really do enjoy watching your videos. Great work! 👍🙏💯
Great video as usual.
I really appreciate the support. I thought these were one of my best patinas.
Those shoes were indeed ugly before you fixed them. Love the video, man.
I really appreciate it my friend 🙏
Wow!!!
I really appreciate it. This is probably my favorite patina that I have done.
Not my preferred color scheme, I am rather conservative with shoe colors but man you did a great job repairing those shoes because the initial color scheme was just way off.
I greatly appreciate it. This one was a rather bold and unique cobblestone patina but I really liked the outcome. I have plenty of more conservative Patinas as well though 👍.
Quick question. Do you think the Carmina polish work as well as the Saphir?
I really want to know. Thank you.
Honestly for the finishing wax I like it better than Saphir. I have no idea what it is but it gives a final shine better than anything I have tried. I still like mirrorgloss or Pure polish high shine for building the base. I don't know if Carmina actually produces wax...I doubt it. My guess is it is rebranded wax from some other maker. It smells different than anything I have encountered. It has a slightly sweet smell to it like some carnauba car wax or something.
@@mbshoedoc thanks a lot.
@@taiwoodetola5987 I'm hoping I can get nd out who the maker of it is.
Thank you for saying RenoMat has such strong smell. I decided against buying.
I love Saphir creams, waxes and renovateur but man that Renomat is a no go for me.
What do you charge for shinning?
Does my head in in when people don't remove the laces I mean how long does it take and what's the idea of dying on an area that hasn't been prepared
Not sure why I didn't remove them and should have. I don't think it had any negative effect on the patina though. And I hate to think the lace issue is all you got out of the video?
Great work as always 👏 👍. Did you have any emails or way to contact you, I have brand new pair of their I will like to do some patina? I hope you answer. Thanks
Sure, email mbshoedoc@gmail.com and we can discuss your project 👍
Podrías hacer zapatos para mí ????
😄"...not a fan of Renomat, it smells. Let's try acetone."🤣
Not sure why that's so funny. Pure acetone has less odor than renomat and really doesn't bother me. Not saying acetone smells like flowers but renomat is 3x worse for me personally. Maybe others will have a different experience. Have you tried both?
@@mbshoedoc Just breaking balls. They're both fragrant products to me, so it kind of came out like, "Damn, I hate the taste of lemons. But you know what is good? Limes."🤣
@@richardgivher835 No worries my friend. I get where your coming from. I think I am a bit overly sensitive because I pour a lot of time and energy into the project and I was really proud of this outcome.. Then to produce a video beyond that...Its a lot of work. I just didn't want the smell of renomat vs acetone to be what someone takes a way from this. It is rather funny though now that you point it out. ;)
@@mbshoedoc These shoes, in my opinion, are some of the best I've seen. I think the marbled patina ones done on The Elegant Oxford and these are neck and for my favorite so far.
@@richardgivher835 Alright, now that is the kind of comments I was going for! 🤣💪
I'm not going to use acetone, I'm going to use acetone....
Not sure exactly what you're saying here. I tend to start with the more mild options first and when that doesn't work I move on to something more harsh. In this case though the pure polish can actually strip wax better than acetone but it won't strip the dye enough. Pure polish then acetone works well. I don't think I ever said I wasn't going to use acetone. Hope that better explains the thought process.
What's worse than ugly shoes? Well, expensive ugly shoes. Shoedoc saved those shoes from embarrassment.
haha, I appreciate it very much. What's nicer than expensive shoes?...one of a kind custom patina expensive shoes 😏
