- Preston Soto is the founder of The Elegant Oxford, a company in San Diego that specializes in premium shoe shines, dyes, and artisan patinas for quality men's brands. Allen Edmonds has been making men's shoes since 1922 and a pair can cost around $395. The brand is commonly the go-to option for a starter pair of dress shoes.Today, Soto will show us how he reshapes a pair of Allen Edmonds Carlyles that is bent out of shape and needs to be resoled. He’ll also recolor the dress shoes so that they can be transformed into a pair that looks brand new. The shoes will then be donated to individuals preparing to enter the workforce to give them a second life.

How Dress Shoes Are Professionally Restored | Refurbished - Навчання та стиль
What a beautiful result. This pair of shoes looks amazing... and your generosity in restoring shoes and donating them to those who are looking for jobs is so kind. I hope you're kindness is returned many times over. God bless you! ❤️
That shoe lookin like a glazed doughnut by the end.
What a spa day for shoes! These ones came to life again, awesome! 👏👏

Amazing transformation. Seeing the difference between before and after restoration, it's difficult to believe it's the same pair of shoes.
I wish I had known about this when I had these pair of antique brogues. I thought they were hopeless and donated them! So kicking myself now
You couldve kicked yourself with the antique brogues
@@shaneclyde8694 😂
Wow youre a gorg
Shoe: *now I feel how it is to get respected*
You dont just throw out worn out shoes, you fix it and wear it again for another 5 years
If they taught this trade in schools we'd have more skilled workers we'd have less waste 🌐 world-wide.Great job!
restoring something old and giving it a brand new life is really cool！
of all these videos this one impressed me the most
Omg your finger nails are commercial ready! Love it.
lol
I had this same thought, he has incredible hands! Haha
That polish technique takes me back to my ROTC days.
Breathtaking work!!!
This plain out asmr
Very nicely presented and it was nice to hear also at the end that you said that you donate good on you
That's so cool that you donate the shoes!
Even you never wear a pair like this to work... just seeing a shiny leather shoe makes you smile.
This guy is amazing, a master of his craft
An absolute artist 👨🎨
Awesome.. good job on the donations
That looks like a maple bar 😂
Is it just me who's staying up late to watch restoration videos?
No. 3:48 am
Nope! 12:57 am 😂😂
More of these please!
barsch look into Trenton & Heath or Vetiver :)
Check out his UA-cam channel. The Elegant Oxford. Preston Soto is an artist!!!
This is really cool😆😻
I’ll try to pretend this wasn’t one long Saphir commercial🤣👏
Do you know his channel? Because I mean...
He does a good job, though. Quality content, currently.
I do follow the elegant Oxford but I don’t see what that has to do with the layout of this particular video
It wasn’t. He barely mentioned the products lol
I guess for men are very high brand leather shoes as for women are leather handbags 👜
Even women bags are more expensive but it seemed to make shoes and bags are same type of technique of full hand work.
This is even better than the new one
This is how dad's shoes look after wearing them for 30 years
How much does something like this cost?
Bravo man .. u r a hero
Good job!
I wanna to steal these shoes but since you are going to donate so
I dropped my plan
Are you the shoe elf? Stealing people's shoes??
This is immaculate.
You are doing a great job indeed!
What an amazing profession.
You ever tackled a pair of black military boots?
Where can the shoe wax you use to put the wet shine on be Purchased and the correct name
Impressive 👍
damn, that’s a good lookin pair of shoes
I'm so lazy I'm the kind of guy who gets new ones
Maybe they’re some sort of family heirloom? I don’t know I haven’t watched most of the video yet.
@@saturniiiidae o.k.
Allen Edmonds can cost around 400 dollars. For 80 dollars, you can send them in and they come back like the ones in the video. I don’t know but I think that’s more cost effective than buying new shoes every time they get a bit beat up 🤨
@@TopStrikerMaverick - good point lol
@@TopStrikerMaverick thanks for informing me but it was just a joke dont take it seriously lol
I don't know why but I have fascination with those kind of shoes.. my ex had a pair and I just love looking at them..
Wow!
Mans using the airbrush like a 20 year old insta model
Dude basically applied blush on these shoes.
Maia Palazzo but ~~professionally~~
Great!!!
That's incredible
Wow, the owner of those shoes must have been so happy!!!
Me: clean shoe dirty shoe same thing
Wow.
the worn ones look so much better
in 2089 they'll probably be restoring yeezys instead, and I'm not sure how I feel about that
There already are sneaker repair shops
Looks like Chocolate and cake 9:02 ,HE DID AN EXCELLENT JOB !
Bravissimo 👍👍
I guess this guy know how its done.
Geez, imagine how lucky you are to receive AE's for free.
He never took the shoe tree out
wow 😮😮
So Great ❤️❤️❤️
I normally wouldn't trust a man who wears a ring that big but these shoes look pretty nice once they're all fixed up
In India we have mochi(cobbler) every one km in cities . We give shoe to them for repairs. Else. We buy new one
I wouldn't even wear these shoes lol I would take em straight home and frame them. What a beauty lol
How can we send you an old pair for donation?!
He has a channel the elegant oxford
"Brought to you by saphir"
wow
He looks like anyone I’ve ever met named Faisal.
The creases could have been taken out if the cobler had angled the sole to put tension back on the shoe. Then soften the leather but hey im no cobbler.
SH🌎E-TA$TIC 👞
Man, I always wanted dressing shoes like those but the black and whites instead. And I'm a girl
You are a girl? Why would you mention that
@@suramiandthesevenstones8005 cus I always find feminine looking ones :(
😃
I need it ..hehehe
Brown shoes?
The owner is Dutch. Am I right? 😂
I can save so much money if i can fix my shoes
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The soles are prety much adequate for 2-3 years more years and you said that those already worn out?? So funny

I just throw them away and buy a new pair...
From a rubber sole to a leather sole.... 🤔 why?
He painted the shoe too much lost the patina
you can imagine how these boots smell and whether it is worth taking on them without gloves so as not to pick up the fungus! Can someone explain to me - wouldn't it be better to make new shoes than to restore these worn out and soaked with fungus shoes ?!
How to increase height please make a video on this specific topic please 😥😥😔😔😖😖😭😭
Use thick sole shoes
Sory i'm just kidding bro
Imagine what this guy can do for the ladies. 👉
Me: 🤨...🤔🤭😂
Love how this person didn't tape up the sole when they were sanding after adding the filler...just messes up that cobbler's lovely work...
Not really but ok
Um no
But the new sole is no longer slip resistant, the old sole was.
realistically, you aren't gonna wear dress shoes anywhere that slip resistant shoes are necessary.
leather soles are more traditional and many people prefer them
You can add rubber sole on top of it
Honestly I'd rather have heard from a cobbler
What if he is colour blind
are you Jesu's?
He couldn’t steam up the leather and remove the creases 🙄
acetone actually accomplishes that same thing. it causes the leather to swell slightly and as it dries it removes the wrinkles. it will never get it perfect, but frankly, neither will steam.
Or u can just buy new shoes lol
Yup
Why buy 500$ shoes when you can get them repaired for 70$.
@@tahaelixer927 ikr
@@tahaelixer927 that repair costed a couple hundred
You’re amazing but people must be out of their minds for paying to have this done on a pair of old Allen Edmonds. They could buy a new pair for what they’re spending on all this work!!
A new pair goes for $400+.
Resoling services go for $75-200 ,for very high-end.
You actually get a better shoe sole and construction with the latter, also with custom options.
Recycle shoes, save money, help local community, more character for shoes and comfort...
Really a no-brainer.
