How to Repair Damaged Leather | Travis Scott AJ1 Restoration

- Welcome back to another episode of 'Restorations with Vick'! This week Vick Almighty how to repair damaged leather from a deep scratch on these Travis Scott Air Jordan 1.
Just like a cleaning, Vick started off this restoration by removing the laces and inserting a shoe tree. With the shoe tree snug inside, Vick will be able to put additional pressure on the toe box during the restoration - this step is extremely important for the leather filling and sanding process to be successful. Before the sanding could begin, Vick made sure to trim down the pieces of raised leather and suede near the scratch. With the damaged leather surrounding the scratch removed, it was time to start sanding! In a circular motion, Vick began sanding down the scratch on the tumbled leather using 400 grit sandpaper. Once the leather started to smoothen out, he moved on to 800 grit, and finally 1500 grit.
His plan was to repeat this same process on the scratched suede, but the the 400 grit sandpaper wasn't working as well as he'd like, so he broke out the dremel tool and lightly sanded the suede. The suede may never again be perfect, but the results were night and day! From there, it was time to head back to the tumbled leather toe box and work on filling the scratch. Using Leather World Technologies white leather filler, Vick began the slow process of filling the scratch. As Vick notes, it's important to use a minimal amount in each coat. Caking the leather filler in the scratch will NOT give you a desired outcome, or speed up the process. After each coat, Vick would sand down down the filler using 800 grit sandpaper. The shoe was starting to look great, but there was a noticeable texture difference in the tumbled leather that had received sanding. To offset this, Vick dabbed leather filler on the smooth areas using a scrap piece of tumbled leather, followed by a light sanding using 1500 grit. Note: it's extremely important to let the filler dry before sanding, or the filler will not stick!
With six to seven patient coats applied, it was time for paint! Mixing white, cream, and mist, the Almighty One applied an even coat across the toe box using his angler brush. Prior to the last coat of paint, Vick applied a layer of Krylon matte finish, an extremely important process that protects and seals the paint.

Leather fillers been out for years. You can get them at Walmart for couches with scratches.

great job Vick! never thought that would be repairable, but you made it happen. great job 👍👍👍
Thank you! -Vick
Wasn't a crazy custom vid that we are used watching to but the delicate work also matters a lot. That is one hell of a good restoration job man.
Vick, just made my business up due to your lessons and "meditation" involved in the process!
It is an honor to get this master classes. Going to start to do the same as you here in Portugal! Whenever you come here, give me a ring!! it is going to be a blast!!
Finally! I’ve always wanted to know how to do this. I’ve seen leather filler used on couches and furniture but I’ve not seen it done an a shoe. This is super helpful! Thanks Vic
Holy shit!!! ....can't even tell wich one was damaged... great job. 💯
You killed it bro !!! Got me dropping my videos now 💪🏾💪🏾 I’ve been restoring since 2013 but never had the will to do videos until now ..
🙌
Do it bro ! I’ll follow you

How will the filler work after certain wears? It’s a amazing fix for sure. Just wonder if it can stand later creases from wearing
Kenny: Wearable
Vick: Repairable
Vick you deadass are the undefeated sneaker goat 🐐 fr fr
Keep up the good work Vick it’s nothing you can’t do bro. You a shoe God 😎
Thanks man! -Vick
Thanks! I have a deeper scratch like that on the heel. Just gotta color match the royal.
💪
Dope video, but I wish we could’ve got some closer looks at the finished work. Can’t really tell how well the leather filler worked on the toe area
one of the best restoration videos
Great to have Vick back!!!
Back? He never left.
Amazing fix! It’s the simple little things that make a huge difference.
Vick truly is mighty lol

Can I use the same white paint on deep scratches patent leather on my AJ 11 legend blue 2014?
Deep scratches on patent leather us a lot harder, but let me double check with Vick Almighty.
WOW what a talented person with an amazing attention to detail full of potential to make change in the work..... Just waisting ALL OF IT.
what
@@RESHOEVN8R I bet you'd make a great engineer maybe even invent a great new tool to solve a problem the human race has been toiling with for eons but instead you're cleaning kids gym shoes.
fantastic
Thanks! I have a similar scratch on my What-The 4s... It was also a nail
How would you recommend to preserve suede color on that pair? Is there something better than stain repellent for this?
Mink oil bro
Still a great job! That gnarly scratch basically vanished
Thank you!
Did you not need to use acetate to remove the original paint before repainting the toe box after the filling? or did you just blend the new paint into the old where its wasn't sanded ?
Great work!!! I’ve got DJ Premier’s that need work, can ya help?!
Damn he literally made them look new
Vick is the 🐐
Yo i got some Jordan 5 grape fresh prince that the previous owner made holes on the lace tabs and I was planning on using this process before y’all dropped the video, appreciate this one

Lemme grab my brand new air gun he says it like he’s been wanting one since he was in middle school 😆
Hello I love your videos, where or how do I get the mini filler spatula, thank you very much. I live in the Philippines and a lot of my Nikes get ruined by the hot weather here while in the closet
Hello guys! Does anybody knows what dremel Vick uses in this video? TIA!

Master Vick

How about Jordan 14 black toe box scratched suede?
Vic, this is unrelated to this video, but what colors and ratio do you use to make for the 2011 true blue 3s, the pain on angelus is too bright? Thank you and keep up the dope work!
you could always darken the paint with some black, play around with how much black you put in to match
Agreed, it's all about playing around until you find the right mix!
Is it a jordan 13 cap&gown at the back?
How do I Remove Permanente Marker from Patent Leather Shoes? I really need this for my Prada Patent sneakers
Unfortunately there is not much you can do to remove it. You can use acetone, but it would ultimately remove the patent leather shine as well.
Great video
💪
Do you think you guys could do a recreation of the quavo lebron 15 PEs?
Do you use hot air or cold air when drying?
Amazing ❤️❤️👍
That's insane how you did that
Thanks!
很棒的修復技巧，只可惜那是一雙假鞋
On my learher jordan 1 midd the bottom white part is ripping off off the middle ( on the front ) because the glue isnt holding up, ive been wearing trhem everyday for like 7-8 months and idk why
Hey i got Jordan 10 retro an my mid sole peel off of the Top shoe how can i fix this? Do i need to remove the whole sole and reglue it?
Amazing job vick! I wonder is it posibble to send my shoes for restoration? From Australia to you
We do not offer restoration services.

Dis a great job. I gotta wonder hoe it will hold up with regular use
Thank you! Should be good with regular use, hopefully these don't encounter any more nails!
How would u be able to fill sued i got some unc 4s an there a tiny dent not really a scratch but it could slightly need filled to take it away if thats possible what do you suggest
video fire!
Thank you!
Hello vick
Hey Paul -Vick
Bro can you guys clean my Jame harden 5s the white ones with color patches they turning yellow 😭😭 I think it would make a amazing video
i think it's safer to use sandpaper together with leather conditioner. just like wet sanding.
It is preference based! This is how Vick Almighty recommends fixing the problem.
When are you going to show how to restore patent leather on jordan 11's??
is there a way i can dye the suede to have the travis 1s not look so faded??
Are there no other shoes in the world other than AJ1?
What colorcode is the filler
this happened on my 2014 carmine 6s on the red what do i do
Where did the crease go from the shoe he fixed
You guys restoring peoples shoes now?😃 about to dm you guys so I can send you pair of Jordan’s that needs to be restored 💪🏼
We do not restore people shoes but you can send us shoes to be cleaned.
@@RESHOEVN8R I know I was joking
Kinda sus that we never really get a clear shit at the repaired suede🧐
10:11 is a view I think
How can I send you my Jordan 1’s to get a restoration exactly like this one? I have an almost identical scratch….
Hey Vick I hope you see this I just want to say I’m your biggest fan and I love all of your restorations and you in spired me to have the love of shoes and also the trails Scott give away I just want to say that I hope I win if I don’t then congrats on the person that did

I want to repair my TS1s. What eact mixture of paint do I need to match the white on the sneakers?
Start with flat white and add a little bit of cream until you have the correct tone.
