    DIY Louis Vuitton Cowboy Wallet! (Part 1)
    For our 100,000 subscriber special project, we decided to make a DIY cowboy wallet out of an old Louis Vuitton bag! Louis Vuitton fabric is fairly similar to leather when you work with it, so it makes a good DIY project if the Louis Vuitton piece is beyond repair. We're making a western style cowboy wallet, and in part one we work on the exterior of the wallet.
    We start by having the Louis Vuitton reclaimed material cemented to a backing of vegetable tanned leather. A western style detail is cut by hand and saddle stitched onto the Louis Vuitton wallet exterior. Then we make a snap strap, hand stitch that with nylon threads from Japan, and attach it to the front of our Louis Vuitton wallet. In part two, we will make the interior of the DIY Louis Vuitton Cowboy Wallet, and stitch the whole thing together!
    Thank you SO MUCH for following us on this journey. It's crazy to have grown to 100,000 subscribers in such a short amount of time - we're so thrilled to have you joining us every week for our videos :)

      Lol.
      It's good that he found way to recycle an unwanted old raggedy LV. Personally, lv and others out there is way overpriced. Sometimes I wonder why folks are willing to give up their one month of hard-earned salary for one bag when they can get 10 well constructed leather bags. After all, all leather bags are made from the skin of a dead animals.
      It's sad, my sister is one of the brand name bimbo🤔

      Kh'merican KitchenGarden Because this is a previously owned item, he is allowed to do whatever he likes with something that he owns. I worked for several of big fashion houses, one of which was Prada and I attended many legal meetings where discussed legal strategy against Chinatown knock-off manufactures. These folks were ok to make knock-offs as long as they didn't use actual logos. So, designs were ok as long as they didn't say "Prada" but unfortunately, many did say Prada. Now, they were free to use the logos if it came from something they owned, like in this case and they didn't sell it. He's not selling this LV wallet I believe so he is free to do whatever he likes with his owned product. If he sells this, then he has a legal issue.

      @@RumbleFish69 Even if he sold it, why would it be an issue? He owned the original and repurposed it. People resell used designer handbags all day. If it's advertised as repurposed, redesigned, or designed with lv materials and not as an authentic product or original mfg design, should not be an issue correct?

    • @RumbleFish69
      @RumbleFish69 4 роки тому

      ​@@PrettyMissAshley OK, selling an item that one owns is ok under certain conditions. For instance, if you want to sell a Gucci handbag that you own on Craigslist, eBay, Etsy, LetGo, whatever platform, you can do that. It's your bag and you can do whatever you want with it. However, with limitations....if you take that same bag apart, and use the leather to make something else while allowing the logos to stay intact, this is where it becomes an issue. Mostly because you're now treading into protected design areas and that's where companies are protected most along with their logos. Repurposing an item with a copy and patent protected logo and company insignia is simply no different than creating a knock-off. When you take an old bag and redesign it allowing the logos to remain, it now becomes a new, however, misrepresented bag! You are now selling something that the company, no matter what the company, has never created. Look, I am sure any person can bang these out by the dozens and never get caught. My comment is simply dissecting this from a legal and permissible standpoint. Hopefully that helped to clarify.

    Something I use that you might prefer for your work is instead of a craft hobby knife, get a scalpel. They have a variety of handles and blades that are relatively inexpensive. The blades are also individually wrapped so you don't have to worry about them getting rusty or coated in oil.

    • @Corter
      @Corter  5 років тому

      Thanks for the tip! I'm pretty big with giant hands, so it probably makes the blade look like a standard xacto - we use #2 blades on industrial handles, cutting through any leather over 5oz gets really sketchy with thin blades. I have no clue how people use normal xacto blades on leather, they're just way too flimsy and small for me!
