How $680 Gucci Sneakers Are Professionally Restored | Refurbished
This is how i wash my $5 dollar shoes.
That's our india.......
@@MurtazaKhan78692 Yeah🔥
You got shoes at $5 in india!!
@@Rafayel06 yeah, sometimes 2 pairs of shoes for $5.
@@IfIDont_NobodyWill 😂
If I had a pair of Gucci shoes I’d probably be too petrified that I’d get them dirty that I’d never wear them out
That sensation disappears after a few hours. They’re not really confortable tho
@@slenderjake5301 yeahh..my Ferrari shoes r not that comfortable. It look cool but not that cool for yr foot..
Yup
@@slenderjake5301 Im a kid, i dont see the point of buying a 100 dollar shoe when a 5 dollar shoe can be more comfortable
@@user-hg2qi8bl2f I am a teenager and I dont see much value in it too.
No matter how much expensive your items are, you'll always pick up a toothbrush to clean them.
Facts
This isn’t a professionally done restoration ain’t even unyellow the soles or take out the creases. He did an average job
Maybe the owner wanted them to look cleaned but not new.
@@coolbreeze2.0-mortemadfasc13 no
@@I_WANT_MY_SLAW You're the owner?
@@coolbreeze2.0-mortemadfasc13 never. Those shoes are hideous.
True
His client got ripped off twice. Once when buying the shoes, and again when they paid to have them restored instead of buying a pair that isn’t ugly in the first place
How much is the restoration?
@@voriee7025 probably a 100 dollars
They look really old school if it's from the early 2010s or earlier than maybe they are worth a lil more or they collect certain brand shoes
Sour grapes
@@frankiemalt Lol I have Allen Edmonds shoes that cost me close to $600. It’s not sour grapes, these are just ugly as hell
The price teaches you to never get your shoes dirtied and scuffed
the background music fits his calm calm demeanor
The price teaches me I can buy cheaper shoes
@@IfIDont_NobodyWill lol swear
$680 and still gets destroyed like any cheaper pair
Shoes are meant to be worn... if the guy can afford to buy a pair of Gucci’s every year he’s gonna wear them as you do when buying a normal pair of shoes every year
Because they cost as much to produce as any other sneaker. The markup on these is ridiculously huge.
@@areuokayinthere Yeah but they buy it because its expensive, not because its better. The whole point of designer clothes and items is about being recognizeable and expensive. Its about flexing. No one would want a tshirt with the H&M logo everywhere but people want Gucci or LV logos on their Tshirt.(or other clothing items.)
@@collan580 ehhh half and half. They are cheaply made but they are still better. If you actually think an h and m shirt is the same quality as Gucci you’re probably not able to afford the latter 😭
@@lucathesadman My point was that gucci is expensive because its a selling point. And being expensive doesnt mean that its better. Yeah an h&m tshirt isnt the best quality but there are local manufaturers who makes tshirts and those are great. And its also true for shoes, jeans etc. Its a bit more expensive but it lasts.
I dont buy designer stuff because i dont care about flexing, i spend my money on stuff that i truly care about: technology.
I don’t get why this kind of shoe is hell expensive
Yes I know the brand name. But Shut the up. It’s still fragile as hell.
In my eyes they look so tacky
Gucci
Brand
Because of the name 😂😂😂. Take the logo off,it's every other cheap shoe
Yes i bought normal shoes from a normal shop and it stayed with me for 2 years
why is this so satisfying to watch? anyway, I would rather buy a new pair than go through all that trouble 🤣
If the restoration costs about 50$ I'd do it of course 😉
It’s the sounds
Of course also a new pair will ser you up for atleats 650 or more
@@abed1596 oh I bet it was higher ☝🏻✍🏻
The only way that I would let my shoes be restored is if it has a sentimental value and/or I really loved that shoes hehe
This guys is decent there are so many people that are 10x better than this guy
@thatguy 00 if I'm willing to pay top dollar for a shoe cleaning, it better be a damn good job
Wow a lot of armchair shoe cleaners in these comments.
@@TonyMezaXD your damn right xD
@@psych3009 How do you know that he costs top dollar?
@@TonyMezaXD lmao you're standing up for another man. Stop it.
This was somehow super pleasing to watch.
Jesus. I felt a little boujee paying 170 for some air maxes but at least those look good. 🤦🏽♂️
Nike Air Max are the only shoe I'm willing to pay €150+ for. I have 5 pair of them and they still look almost new. The 720's are so comfortable it's like I'm walking on air
680$ shoes and still now sense of fashion
I had an intern who had Gucci shoes like these(minus the spikes and pearls).
I didn't even realize that they are Gucci until he told me. They look like a pair of leather sneakers. Idk man.
He does it so slow and gentle.
I like it.
I'm trying to imagine someone dumb enough to spend that much money on shoes.
Oh believe me there are people .. I know a few family members, specifically female -- and they live showing this shit off on social media.
Everything is relative...
Yeah
@@RayNLA Alabamans: •U•
Some places in this world 680€ is not that much.
Title of this video should be " How a Korean guy paints an expensive leather shoe"
Didn’t clean the bottom of the sneakers enough. Good job tho
I mean, they're obviously they are gonna get walked in again so if I cleaned these shoes, I wouldn't spend too much time on the shoes either
@@danielson7756 If I’m paying for it to be throughly cleaned ? I want the bottom spotless as well. He could’ve painted the bottoms white.
@@grim6876 get dirty asap thats just a waste of time
@@finnhavinga4954 he could've just applied sole shields
@@grim6876 he is restoring whats damaged 🤦🏻♀️ he aint cleaning and you did not pay him to clean. Wash your own damn sneakers.
$680 for a pair of sneakers.. Wow. I always buy $19 shoes at Walmart when they're on sale. @.@
That is better long term. Most people who buy these hideous shoes are also the ones that can barely afford rent. I’ve seen it first hand, the dude couldn’t afford orange juice in the park but he had dolce gabbanas. 😂
Not everyone's broke like you. And before you say you're not broke anyone that shops at Walmart for clothes is broke.
Professionally cleaned.. proceeded to use a spray can
Okay so now that we know that, how can we do the first step of getting the shoes?
Gucci is the ugliest brand in existence. It's only to show off that you have money when no one even cares
Right
Is the brush from Four Seasons Landscaping?
I just don't understand, why are sneakers so expensive!? I mean, it's footware...
I hate to break it to you but clothing across the board can be expensive like this.
Restore them??... NO, DESTROY THEM.🤢🤮
If you can afford to buy 600 dollar shoes why not buy another pair?
And if you care for your shoes to last buy something else because the materials on these shoes seem to cost not more than 30 dollars
The single case i would imagine a person wanting to restore the Gucci shoes would be a poor one wanting to show off or a person that has emotional attachment to the pair or (slim chances) a person that has money and likes how the shoes look and is cautious with his spending
Only in murica.
' Clean Shoes Professionally. '
" Here's the Toothbrush i use to clean it. "
*Shows the shoes to the client*
Client: hmm you can keep the shoes
Im not satisfied about the way youve cleaned the sole and its outer stitching.
That could have been done a lot better if you ask me.
I give you a 8 out of 10.
This job is so necessary in the sustainable lifecycle of a product. Well done 👏🏽🌱
How do you find matching color to me it’s not straight white
I always clean my shoes no matter if they are cheap or not… that is called cleanliness
I had a pair of motorcycle boots restored once... On the first ride I destroyed most of the paint they applied to it.
How much does a restoration cost. Example Chanel Leather Sneakers. Few peels on leather.
This guy's so good that he can make your dirty old Chuck Taylor's look like new Guccis.
Dude using a spray can all purpose clear coat made me question everything else
What colours do you mix for this shoe?
It's expensive but also getting worn. So luxury things like this are just a waste of money.
He wasn’t even going in circles when he said he was lmaoo
Which metallic greens did you use to mix to get the closest color for the back leather snake panel?
I’m seeing a lot of salty butt hurt people in the comments who are too broke to afford these🤣
Rich or otherwise,anyone can see those shoes look lame af and the dude didn't even do a very good job of cleaning them.What are you even complaining about.
I'm surprised they didn't put new insoles in the shoes. Put new insoles in and give the old nasty ones back to the owner if they want them.
That's amazing, but why would someone who can afford it and buy it care about restoration?
client should've just bought another pair at this point but you can clearly tell its just some average joe lol
What kind of cleaning soap is best to use?
And I found some original pumas from 70$ to $15 last night I'll look after them and wear them knowing they have a lifespan with all the money in the world if I had it I wouldn't spend that much on a sneaker
Makes me hopeful about buying expensive shoes again.
Don't. Buy quality shoemaker brands, not designers.
@@DenKulesteSomFins like?
@@cattameme Crockett and Jones, Edward Green, RM Williams, church's at the top. Then you have more reasonable alternatives like Alden, red wing and a lot more. Basically anything with a stitched sole is far superior in quality to a glued sneaker. Look up shoes with a Goodyear welt or a Blake stitched sole
@@DenKulesteSomFins Yeah but most of these shoes arent casual shoe makers, they are good but i cant wear them with a simple skinny jeans. I have leather lacoste shoes, they arent expensive, usually costs around 50-70$, comfortable and durable(Most of my shoes last for 3-4 years)
@@DenKulesteSomFins broke mentality lmao

"Insider" publishing something like this? (Don't get me wrong, this clean metod isn't amazing, it is very normal), nice guy and probably will be a Clean Master but right now he is just in the average of Cleaner Shoes.
What's the music? Can't find
buy new one only 680 usd?
How much does the service cost?
1:16 dude. That insole was so disgusting.
Very nice restoration. 👍👍👍👍👍
Does anyone know what kind a thinner he use to wash them?
They actually cost 750..but I don't wear them that much for them to get damaged like this pair here..smh they need to buy cheaper shoes.
Should be scrubing and cleanin the inside this is a fail and would rather just throw an in the washer instead of paying close to retail to get repaired
Even after the restoration those are the ugliest shoes I've ever seen in my life 🙃
They still sell these brand new. If you're too poor to buy new ones than you have no business buying these in the first place.
i have the same pair.
how the hell he had the heart to get them out and use them like that.
so this guy either didn't have the money to afford another pair of gucci sneakers, in which case he should have treated them better, or he had enough money to not care what happened to his shoes, but still wanted them repaired. makes no sense.
great job though, expert repair
Man I'd watch an asmr version of this.
$687 shoes? Wow. I wouldn't buy those even if I was a billionaire. No amount of solid construction can ever make these shoes worth that much, unless these things are some type of investment opportunity that appreciate in value like gold.
Some shoes are. I have a pair of shoes that I paid $400 for like 2 years ago that I could sell for $600 now.
Good work but he fucked up that scale pattern by painting itttt 😭💀
Gucci sneakers can be found in any flea market near you
Still looks old
How mutchi for this job?
Bruh nasty that person didn't wear socks 😂
Answer: by paying 600 more
Always the best option to give your dirty luxury shoes to a professional ... ❤️❤️
Yeah, this was pleasant to watch. I can get into watching more of these kinds of videos.
I could have done a better job the stitches around the sole you could have taken out and added new or just painted it
$680? They look like K-Swiss with a Gucci band on the side 😂😂😂
The sticking I keeping these shoes from looking good. You gotta figure out a way of cleaning that
I saw the same exact restoring exact shoes on Repair Studio channel
I still think all high end sneakers look ridiculous. Like for $600 you could get a much more sophisticated better looking style. If you're not in a creative field where it's the uniform or like under 22 I think it looks childish.
To each their own and all that jazz, but I don't understand why anyone would buy and wear a pair of these shoes in the first place, much less pay to get them fixed up so they can keep wearing them.
I just don't get fashion sometimes. 🤷🏼♀️ But I hope they're thrilled about their fancy shoes, and get to wear them for many years to come. 👍
How much did that job cost
Man I can do the same shit put them in a pillow case and put them in the washing machine
For one..... WHY TF ARE YOU PEOPLE GETTING SHOES THIS EXPENSIVE AND NOT TAKING CARE OF THEM!?
Gucci is looting giving bakwaas product.
Feeling pity for consumers .....
Where are you located?
Those insoles were DISGUSTING! Did they not wear socks?? 😭😭
Gucci takes an average looking cheap pair of sneakers, adds some very, very cheap pieces of fabric and buttons to make them super ugly, then sell them for at least 5 times the price . And the owner not only spends 680 dollars for the ugliest sneakers on the planet , but because the sneakers are super expensive they end up investing even more money trying to get a few more months out of them. Just WOW!
Keep dressing in Primark then
that was beautiful
680 bucks, no way would I spend that much, insane, plus they look silly
I need mine restored too
These trainers basically look like cheap generics with cheap craft bits stuck on
Atleast this man took time out of his day clean it
asmr version pls
If you have to refurbish your Gucci shoes. You don't need to own a Gucci shoes
Why do people buy these things
Bro he could have bought af1, they look hella 🔥
I am wearing wooden sandals
$680 and that snake skin part is not even real snake skin. it's printed leather...
They didn't say how they whitened the soles. Bleach?
Fashion is a very smart marketplace, just make the stupidest shit you can imagine and sell it for %1000 profit
Appreciate this brothers commitment to repairing it but wouldn't waste my time with getting this shoe or brand. Ill just stick to NIKE and ADIDAS 👌
That dude is an artist... I guess he never figured that after art school he will restore shoes:(
Technically you didn’t even clean it you just wiped it little bit and then you paint on top of it
