You'd expect for that price they would come with protection
True
It's not really protection but I'm pretty sure like all luxury bag brands, they proved free maintenance for life when you buy them.
Edit:jk just looked it up they arent like other luxury brand they dont offer the service for free.
@@Ma5jay5dontxdoxthat they're built different
Tell that to all the smartphone manufacturers
I have Christian Louboutin shoes and whenever I buy them the sales associate in the stores asked if I want to put sole covers on them and they do it for u for free
When your shoes are so expensive you can’t ruin the soles
when your shoes are too expensive to wear
Kanye west lol
When ur shoes are so expensive u have no soul
When you don't have an expensive shoes
When your shoes are so expensive that you'd rather diy arts and crafts, then spend another $6-$7 to protect them.
I like how she said she saved $20 on the 3M tape when she owns like a hundred $500 shoes 😆
$500 shoes? Lol that’s a funny joke. None of these shoes are under 1k
@nicholetschida134 came here to comment the exact same thing haha
$500 will get you a pair of Louboutin dress shoes. The heels are way more
And they aren't even comfortable. You are literally paying about a grand for torture devices and the brand name.
Me thinking that too. What a save!!!!😅
“How to make an impractical pair of shoes even more impractical by making them slippery”
😂😂
Right.
I do this to all my louboutins, it’s actually not slippery; the vinyl has a lot of grip, I don’t notice any difference. Have never slipped or fell in these shoes once!
This
You said it..😂
Since my parents didn’t have a lot of money before I was born, my dad put red stickers on my mom’s heels. She still has the “red bottoms.” I just think it’s really cute lol
Awh that is so sweet
That's a sweet man
To care about the color of the bottom of your shoes is one of the most ridiculous things ever.
@@Cynnas >:(
@@Cynnas getting angry about what other people care about cause it doesn't matter to you is the most ridiculous thing ever 🌻
I love that she takes pride and care in her items. It doesn’t really matter, and maybe it’s therapeutic. It also is great advice for those who only have 1 pair or really any nice heels / shoes. I appreciate the idea myself.
I too wished I had a 8ft dresser to neatly store my shoes in my walk in closet
@@rajeeka2180 meh. Salvation is so last season
Yes
@@rajeeka2180 no
Agreed. but I also can't help but think what do these ppl do for a living?? 💀 I need to know so I can do it too.
I find it hilarious you are talking about saving money when discussing Louboutins
We used to scratch the bottoms on purpose so we wouldn't slip! That's why men's dress shoes are so slick!
These actually are a little more stickier than the original painted soles
If Louboutins are so expensive and high quality, why don't THEY do this for their shoes? Why does the red paint come off so easily if it's SO important?
True! But it’s probably because they know that if you’re willing to shell out that much cash for a pair of shoes you’ll probably be ok with doing it again once the paint wears off... more money in their pocket 😑
U don't watch shark tank huh
they're not for being practical or walking in it they're 100% for looks lol
It’s a sign of wealth to wear a new, unscuffed pair at an event. You can afford a new pair every time! Gasp!
@@josie715 No, it's just that some people who buy the shoes are wearing them wrong lol. Christian Louboutin HIMSELF said that the red paint at the bottom of the shoe is supposed to wear off the more you wear them, it's just his signature symbol.
This is peak Asian behaviour, when you're rich enough to afford 30 Louboutins but still thrifty enough to want to save on the sole protection.
LMFAO
😩
If u look in the comments most expensive brands have lifetime renew so like if u get a bag from loui v u get a search they’d fix it for u
Also why spend 15 dollars for each pair of shoes let’s say 30 shoes right that’s 450 your paying for it all together why pay that price when you can pay 20 dollars for all of them and do it itself the same exact way what’s the sense in that so I don’t think it’s just cuz she’s rich I think she might be a shoe collector and a smart person tbh
@@Anonymous-tt5vd Not necessarily true. They’ll still charge you for repairs if the damage was caused by you and wasn’t already there before you purchased it.
@@Lumi0215 even still my main point is why spend 450 on each pair of shoes (say we have 30) to get the laminated thing then spend 20
I'm 45 and I've literally had the same pair of Nike shoes I got really lucky to find at a garage sale for $10 and they looked brand new. They were expensive but to have lasted me 30yrs and counting I'm happy with the one pair I own. I can't imagine how much one pair of your shoes are but they are all really pretty and I'm glad you're taking good care of them.
You’ve been wearing the same pair of shoes for 30 years?! I call 🧢
@@Itsroccib yes I have, it's what people do when they take care of their stuff because they can't afford to buy everything they look at. Glad you enjoy making people feel like crap!
I’d love to see these 30 year old shoes. I’ve never heard of that before but good on ya if you’re able to keep shoes that long. My shoes last like a year or so before I need to replace them if I wear them often
@@harmonyfox where can I send you a picture
Plz go buy some new shoes. This is nothing to be proud of.
I have $17k worth of shoes but $8-$12 a shoe for pre cut protectors is just crazy, here’s how to do it on the cheap…
…relatable
I wouldn’t even buy shoes I have to “protect” when I wear them. Especially the sole, like, they’re meant to be walked on.
Exactly!
Realistically high heels aren’t meant to be worn very frequently. Still stupid design, but they’re not meant to take a beating.
Good thing they're not your shoes then, right??
@@maishawena1997 you right, good thing
I can't afford shoes
“Happiness is the same price as red bottoms”
And you tell me red bottoms can be damaged just like my happiness
Exactly I totally agree.. The mindset Of it all It's so unnecessary.👠🤯
Too deep for the red-bottomed shoe people.
Damn that’s deep
They do it so u will buy more 😂 my mom has a few. She bought me a pair for my bday when I was 16 years ago...now I'm in my mid 20s...but i wore them once and now they sit on my shelf on display with my other things here at my place. think it's to make u buy more though.
I'm depressed just like my red bottoms after a gravel road 😢
The satisfaction in peeling those off after use- MY GOD IT MUST BE AMAZING
Great tip Racheal!
For the commentors who had asked:
There's sole protection and sole preservation. The 3m is sole preservation.
A form of protection is having a rubber Topy or Vibram done on them from a cobbler.
A lot of Louboutin heels owners get em done for grip. Not only does it protect the leather soles, it also adds very good grip, no more slipping lol
BUT with that said, Louboutin & some high end shoe designers, don't recommend you getting a Topy grip done on them, because of balance, and how the heel was originally designed to sit on ground, matching heal stub. (The Topy, Vibram rubber grips are a little thick.)
Rachel is a pro heel walker, unlike me, walking awkwardly and slipping. So she only needs the 3M covers.
Me, I get Topy rubber done on mine, cuz I need all the grip I can get 😂
For the commentors asking WHY these shoes need protection, why would it rub off, wear off so easy, why not just replace shoes etc.
Well......I'm not gonna even go there 😂 it's too much to explain.
Just wanted to say, you're not protecting the leather soles by getting topy or other rubber soles added, the cobbler sands down the leather sole to add the new sole. It's also completely unnecessary on new shoes, leather soles usually can last upward of 200-300 miles of walking before they need to be repaired or replaced.
Wouldn't the shoes become more slippery to walk in, not safe
That’s how you accidentally slide into someone’s dms
@@wandatruillo-dickey2365 😂
I was going to ask the same!!
They're heels, they don't have the best grip anyway if they are smooth enough on the bottom to already be at enough of a disadvantage. Plus, the stuff she used was probably made for this purpose anyway. Since they could come in pre-cut versions
@@wandatruillo-dickey2365 lmaooo 😂
Are you going to tell me that someone who will spend that kind of money on a pair of heels is going to DYI something to save less than $20🤣🤣🤣
That’s exactly what I thought 😂😂😂🤷🏽♀️
Let's do the math. One pair of premade tape costs $8-12, one roll for $20 lasts for 20-30 pairs. So if she wanted to use the premade stuff on 20 pairs it would cost $160 to $240 and for 30 pairs $240 to $360.
@@loewenmakrele
Now go look up how much those shoes cost per pair and you will understand why I don’t believe she would do it herself. They are around $799 a pair FYI.
She's saving that cash to spent another pair of expensive Christian Loubouton 💰
Yes so they can buy more shoes it's called logic Maria
This is really smart and forward thinking! If a pair ever goes out of style and she holds on to them until they’re vintage, with minimal wear and protected bottoms, she could resell them for an amazing price
I love scatched red bottoms. That means ppl with scratched bottoms don't worry about them being ruined because they can actually afford them.
Or they just don't know how to protect them
Sounds about right. If they get worn out, just get them re-soled. For how much the shoes cost I'd like to believe they offer that service.
some people don't like to damage their products and even if someone may be that rich to afford again and again so what? who can actually afford them sound very disgusting and arrogant. maybe have money but not good personality.
This is such a disgusting, untrue, ignorant comment
No. That just means that's their preference. Just because you can afford something doesn't mean you shouldn't take care of it.
I really thought for that price they would give some sort of protection or even insurance 😂
👌🆗️
I wondered the same thing. Shoes that expensive with decorative soles, one would think they would be made to resist scuffing.
Insurance? That's funny but true
How much do they cost?
@@sgtigereye anywhere from $695 to $6000 per pair.
Love how you’re price conscious about the cheap 3M paper even though you’ve got a WALL of Louboutins 😂
(not an insult, just a funny contrast)
Lol i thought about that too!! 🤦♀️🤣
Gotta save every dollar you can to collect more Louboutins
Hahaha.

How to afford these red bottoms, in ways that sit right with my soul? Internet has yet to serve me those answers lmao
This is something we all needed to know
That’s one easy way to slip.
Actually this this give you more grip than the original painted sole
Use sandpaper
I think same , the tape is slipery like ice
@@RachelVogtTrends okay but then why do you buy a shoe with a sole that's that slippery?? Like wtf
@@_bouldering_3688 you need to increase your vocabulary beyond "wtf?". You don't need to swear to get your point across.
Taking them to a cobbler is a much better alternative. If you do a little research on it, they put something on the bottom and it protects the varnish. I’ve heard it costs around 50 bucks and lasts the shoes a lifetime.
Mine sticks on a red rubber instead of the red leather, it's standard practice for new Louboutins
@@MrsJolene- I was going to say going to a Cobbler is going to protect those shoes I honestly believe she’s ruining the shoes this way. The rubber cobblers puts on is a really thick piece.
@@lilyj.thomas4555 yes true, but sadly so many people skimp out on that small cost, and ruin the soles super fast.
Like how can you be so cheap, while buying/ wearing such expensive shoes?
BTW. Better option for such such expensive shoes imo.
Most ppl don’t know what a cobbler is. Sadly, in a disposable society, a dying trade.
So it's actually just expensive plastic and doesn't even meet high quality production standards? Requires you to do arts & crafts to preserve them? I must be missing something
Lacquered leather soles will scuff and the paint will wear off when walking on rough surfaces. It's not a sign of low quality or fragility, a lot of leather soles will stand up to upward of 200 miles of walking before they need to be repaired or replaced.
Some stores also sell rubber protectors for louboutins!! They’re removable & can offer more grip than the paint. When I got my Toundras I took them to Leather Spa and they installed the cover on the bottom & stretched them for me for $130. I still have the sole on my shoes to this day!! Def makes walking in them way easier too.
If i’m buying such an expensive pair of shoes to actually wear, i’d want it to actually be sealed properly and good quality instead of just red lacquer🤠
@HUNGRYFoodie
Well leather or not, i would still expect them to be actually wearable :// it’s not even like it’s a birkin bag that’s actually going to rise up in price. It’s pretty much going to stay the same or gradually lose it’s worth. Even if it’s an indoor shoe, it’ll still horribly scratch up :// for me personally it’s pointless to even wear them, it’s much better to collect them for their looks (but not really worth like i said before. They aren’t like birkins)
And even though it’s a fashion item it should still be durable, i’ll add
Leather soles are a luxury and high end. They do it because it lasts well..... But most want to get even more out of them!
Leather deteriorates and it’s natural but what separates these from cheaper shoes is they’re made so they can be easily repaired and in long term are less wasteful than cheaper options because of that. You don’t need the red bottoms for them to function either, I have some good news: you can still walk on shoes without red bottoms!! The reason the woman in the video cares is because she’s a collector and wishes to keep her shoes as she bought them while still using them with minimal repairs.
See that's the difference. She has the money and you don't.
I don't have louboutins and probably will never but I can't stop watching these videos
I'm going to do this with all my heels. THANK YOU!!!
It’s a burning question I was losing sleep over! If I had enough money to waste on one pair I would find something else to spend it on let alone all of them in that closet!
That’s actually a great tip. If one day I could ever afford them I’ll have to remember this lol.
I recommend ebay you can get a pair for a fraction of original price in excellent condition
Get a red rubber sole put on by a cobbler. it’s easier and the rubber makes it grip better.
If you get to a place where you can afford to blow this much money on a pair of shoes, please do something more wise with your money.
@@savinggracehomestead2687 I doubt I would ever be able to afford them lol I would rather buy a better car or a house instead of the little apt I live in.
She's actually saving a lot of money. If she did the Amazon precut thing she would spend $360, but now she's spending only $20 saves her $340. As much as the shoes may be pricey for most, she's showing other people who may have a pair of red bottoms, how to affordably protect the sole.
Back in the 80's kids at my high school would do this with sneakers because they'd be able to return them to get a another style. Or cut the GUESS tags off of pants in the store to sew on the non brand ones they had.
Lol.
It has been said that * Christian Louboutin* intended the red to come off....so that you would "paint the town red" wherever you went by leaving little red transfers of paint.
LV? Louis Vuitton and Christian Louboutin are different brands...

For the price of those shoes, I expect Fabio to carry me around!
*Finally realizing that Louboutins are the 'red bottomed shoes' on songs*
Literally me bro
Imagine caring about the price of shoe bottom protectors when you're spending all that money on red bottoms.
What a good idea but if I had to trace the shoes every time they would be covered in pen marks. I think I would make permanent patterns for each shoe out of thin cardboard to prevent this.
If I had that many pairs of Louboutins, I would like to think that I wouldn't be expected to walk anywhere 😂🤷🤪
You have 30 pairs of louboutins but won't pay for pre cut protectors?
Why you have to spend extra when you know you can save money. I think she's smart.
Probably a shoe collector. It’s still nice to save money when you can especially on this type of thing that’s so easy to do
@@kayla_vogts123 I agree. It not necessary but it nice to have.
You have to save some places or else you won’t be rich anymore
She’s saving for more Louis
This is a great tip! I took a pair of mine to the cobbler to have them stretched and he gave me these adhesive”pads” that are red. They help add some much needed traction to the bottoms while maintaining that classic red bottom look.
I’d get my butler to do it though. If I could afford that many, I’d also be able to afford a butler..lol
Excellent tip. 👍
My local CL store told me to just bring it in and they will resole it.
"How do I protect my red bottom from scratching"
Um...use a good anti fungal cream mam.
Those gold stud shoes, very pretty, the heel height is insane.
I hate that there’s people commenting so harshly on this video. This is actually great advice for people who may only have one pair of expensive shoes that they use for pretty much every special occasion. This could help you save money even if you don’t use red bottoms. Also we should respect other people doing whatever the fuck they want with their own money, nobody’s telling you to go buy expensive shoes. Grow up.
Oh silly me. I thought shoes were made for walking lol
Fantastic tip! I took a pair of beautiful and expensive shoes to the cobbler to do the same but he did a sloppy job and let the glue drip down to the heel. He then said I brought them in that way…ugh. I wish I would have seen this last year. Thank you so much!
That’s such a good idea I’m going to trying that on some of my heels.
Those golden shoes are gorgeous
Part of me wonders if someone has enough money for a closet full of Louboutins, would penny pinching on a roll of 3M adhesive backed polymer film for shoes as opposed to just buying the precut version really even be necessary? At least your tip will help out the person who used their life savings for one pair of red-bottoms though😊.
I thought the same!
Actually, she can probably afford to buy all those Louboutins BECAUSE she pinches pennies. You don't become rich by throwing away your money. Just saying🤷🏻♀️
@@M.Happie exactly!
Because worth and cost are two different things
She probably saves money for her shoes this way.
Won't vinyl be super slippery now tho?
I like the fact you put another clear on top of it to make it stay visually pretty for a longer period
My grandfather made handmade shoes the first task we had when having a new pair of shoes made was to scratch the leather sole so that one didn't slip.
Imagine having so much money that your only worry in life was scratching the 'red bottoms' of your laboutins 😂🤦♀️
…why would you insinuate from a 45 second video this person doesn’t have problems? Everyone does.
I just carry my shoes and walk barefoot, had them for years and the soles are mint.
Oh my XD
george and bertha russell are such a power couple
These shoes makin ya work
i guess this is what they mean when they discuss hyper consumerism. this is concerning.
This is good to know for the distant future when I'm able to buy a SINGLE pair 😭🤣
They are ridiculously uncomfortable. I would find a high quality Italian shoe similar that’s a little less high and more for comfort. It would still give you beautiful statement shoes but would also be worth wearing
I can't imagine having shoes that delicate lol it would stress me out
luckily i’ll never have to worry about this due to me never owning a pair of red bottoms🧍♀️
"Ionly spent $20 for this entire roll because saving money is clearly an issue here"
Why do you give a shit about saving money on film when you're buying thousand-dollar pairs of shoes ?
I keep getting these recommendations and I don't even wear high heels. But it's nice to watch
What a smart solution. Good to know. Your Louboutin collection is fabulous. Though uncomfortable in some instances, Louboutins are like a work of art. I’ve always thought it such a shame for the red lacquer to chip so easily, and boy does the shoe bottom look tacky when that happens.
She has to live thousand or more years to wear all these shoes or even to find the occasion for them cuz i am sure she doesn’t wear them doing grocery or going for a walk so its just home decor
I own at least 50 pairs of regular heels and I wear a pair every day to work.
@@Alma-uu4mn Right. But my occasion to wear all my shoes is work. I do wear them to get do errands after work or go out with my friends. But mostly work.

People that think outside the box. That is what I love. 🤩❤
You'd think the shoemaker would provide protective covering for the ridiculous prices for those shoes.
Shoes are to protect your feet, who cares if the bottoms are red or green …people really don’t have nothing else to spend their money on. We have forgotten about humanity
I can't imagine spending thousands for shoes that don't come with this for free lol. Hell I remember buying timberlands from footlocker and going off on sales person for not giving us the free suade/leather cleaner with brush ! They were only 2-250 back then lol

you know watching this video has made me realize how brilliant and low key evil the red bottom marketing thing is. Like its almost designed to get messed up so you want a fresh pair, you know? glad this persons got it figured out though this is brilliant
Someone who can spend 10s of 1000s of dollars on shoes, is concerned about spending too much on their maintenance...that is irony right there...
It does help. Thank you for the idea

Put 2 side and also use one strip with texture in the second and you will avoid the indentations as well and get some grip
