    Ahh I've actually lost count of how many times I watched this video. Seriously man these customs are so lit, prob the best i've seen yet. I kinda just stumbled onto this whole scene of customising trainers this week and have been looking for inspiration for doing my first own pair. After seeing this literally everything else I had in mind looks shit xD probably too complex for me though as I've never used a sewing machine and don't have those skills :/ really wish I could just buy them off you lol. props to you though man :o

    • @dapperalien
      @dapperalien  7 років тому +1

      thank you so much dude :) don't doubt yourself. get some cheap used trainers on ebay and give it a try. it looks way more difficult than it is ;) and maybe you can find some way around using a sewing machine. maybe paint the details on or something? any way i'd say just give it a try. because i'm not selling these, i'm just giving out the inspiration ;)

    • @kezmonkey2435
      @kezmonkey2435 7 років тому

      No problem man :) And yeah I was thinking to try out something like this on a cheaper pair of kicks first, especially the buckle strap idea which I really liked. Probably not nike for my first try lol.

      i don't know to be honest. i just use my mum's old one :D but the one i use is a fairly good one and it already had some trouble with the leather. so i think a 60$ machine won't hold up that well i think...
