Kirby, I had such a great time! Hopefully we can do this again! Thanks for everything 👍🏻
Great collaboration! I also learned a few things. I’ll have to pick up some more polishes and experiment...
Hey guys. Congrats. Kirby, Oxford, Robert. I watch your channels and share the love to give a pair of shoes some good care.
Two class acts bringing back a trade that is as old as time. Great collaboration gentleman! Looking forward to seeing more! Thanks for the great watch.
THE 2 KINGS OF THE WELL DRESSED, SOPHISTICATED AND EDUCATED OF UA-cam!!! 🤴🏻🤴🏻 GOOD JOB GENTLEMEN!!!! ❤️❤️
Fashion vs style. People pay you guys to add fake patina into their shoes, yet when a shoe develops a beautiful natural patina they see it as an imperfection in the shoe?!?!?!?!?!?
Usually we only see Preston as a reflection in a toe-cap.
Oh my god elegant oxford has a body and face!
"The most ambitious crossover event in history." 😂
Best since Iverson shook Jordan in 1996-97
We’re slowly building a cinematic universe of gentlemen
We need a crossover between:
-Kirby Allison
-Preston Soto
-Sven Raphael Schneider w/ Preston and Kyle
-Antonio Centeno
-Hugo Jacomet
Can anyone think of any more?
Damn I want in on that!
@@billysinge8977 That would be amazing!
Because of both you , your the reason im polishing shoes from thrift shops and donating it to high school kids for the first interviews or Vets. Even my wife has joined in at the hospital and talking to individuals who are running certain programs so I can donate some of the shoes. Even though the saphir products are very expensive it is absolutely the best on any shoes. Since i retired now it keeps me busy.
That is awesome!
Nice. Keeps you busy and gives you purpose.
Now get Trenton & Heath and Hugo Jacomet in there and you can start the “Gentleman Avengers”!
Can't forget steve from bedos leather works, that man is a magician when it comes to repairing shoes
the best anime crossover
Yes!
Ahahah ! Would love to them in the same room
I watch all four!
Never in my wildest of dreams, I thought ill be excited about a collab between two gentlemen cleaning shoes. Here I am watching this in the middle of my work.
Preston is a complete gentleman! Bravo my friend!
Kirby, you’re so generous and seem so pleasant to be around.
This is a fantastic collaboration. Both were so professional in exchanging different styles and techniques.
Great video!!
The collabo we've all been waiting for!
Kirby you are such a gracious and kind host. In the gentlemanly manner you show real respect and admiration for Preston.
Amazing video, seeing Preston and Kerby together was like watching an all-star team at work
Man, this was like witnessing Einstein and Hawking having a conversation about the cosmos! So much knowledge between the two. Loved the collaboration. Hope it happens again!
Preston Soto is the man!
Im so glad to see biggest shoe aficionados of UA-cam side by side👏🏻😎
I love the way you complemented each other while sharing different ideas.
I started watching both of these channels on youtube. You inspire me everyday and because of Elegant Oxford and Kirby Allison, I started taking care of my shoes in a totally different way. This video and the fact that you both met for one video like this its just beyond words. Congrats for all you do, both of you! Because of you, a lot of people learn the true value of shoe care! Thank you
The 2 KINGS OF UA-cam!!!!!!🤴🏻🤴🏻
This is exactly why I follow you guys! Thanks so much! You guys rock!
Nice to see such passion. People tend to neglect their shoes but it really makes a difference. it also saves money because you don't have to replace your shoes as often if you maintain them properly. Actually that's the same for all pieces of clothing too. it's less expensive to maintain them than it is to replace them.
Thanks guys.
I loved the way you guys came together to bring those shoes to life. Also on a social level I enjoyed how people coming together can accomplish wonders. Outstanding job you guys. 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Holy s-it, Batman, the stealth man has been revealed! So this is the MAN with a shine, Preston Soto. I really enjoy both channels and I’m thrilled to finally see the master shoe blaster in the flesh...
I just received my first pair of new to me Allen Edmonds yesterday (yay Poshmark!) and after watching both of your multiple shine and restoration videos, I can't wait to get them looking amazing!
I thoroughly enjoyed watching you two young masters of your craft interact and work together. I'm in my sixties now and have been shining shoes for many years but over the last few months have learned more from you two gentlemen than I learned in all the time before. Thank you so much.
Preston Soto is such a class act. Love that he helps others in need, especially our veterans 🇺🇸. God bless you Preston.
Very nice to see these gentlemens’ collaboration in an art that was slowly disappearing before they showed us that everyone can look good in a nice pair of shoes and doesn’t take much to make the shoes look great. The two best finally together and was waiting for. Both my late grandmothers’ born in the 1880’s said emphatically that you can always tell a gentlemen by their shoes and that shoes make’th the true gentlemen.
Excellent show! I hope people can see that the well dressed gentleman doesn't just afford more expensive shoes and clothes, but he takes care of things, takes advantage of a deal and capitalizes on the unseen value of the item, makes things last a lifetime through care and thoughtfulness. My $30 AE Cody loafers from Ebay are maybe my 2nd or 3rd favorite shoes to wear.
What an amazing collaboration!!! LOVED IT!
Two men that pay attention to detail....bringing chivalry back.....one step at a time👞
I'll be chivalrous once I'm knighted.
I have to say...that I'm really enjoying the development of the shoe and shoe shine community.
Kirby this episode was fantastic I think one of my favorites to date. Looking forward to your next project.
Seeing Kirby fiddling with the foil thing was hilarious and cute. like giving bubble wrap to a kid xP
The “good old fashion team work” bit really drove the point home for me. Thank you for this video, it’s very encouraging and uplifting for us in the home-inspired sartorial image genre.
So that's what Preston looks like. Great collaboration.
I was also surprised. I saw his face for the first time today in a different video.
Amazing collaboration... i have been following the Channel of the elegant Oxford a few years but he only had 2 or 3 videos... but this year preston decided to work harder on his channel and suddendly begun to grow really fast!!
This was actually way better than I expected. Just listened while I shinned my own. What a great chat.
One of my favorite videos by Kirby Allison! Preston seems like a great guy and Kirby is a very proper gentleman. I'm in the market for a new tie and after seeing Kirby's generosity without any hesitation I am placing another order tonight from the Hanger Project. Thank you for the great content!
The dream team of shoe shine!
What a great meeting and shoe conversation! The loafers are looking great!
Simply Awesome seeing 2 masters of shoe shining working together. I really enjoy seeing your art . Truly Outstanding . 👏
Thanks for collaborating with Preston, outside of your channel Kirby, Preston is one of the best out there in the shine world! Wonderful video!
Just when you think Kanye West dropping a new album was big news you see the ultimate shoe collaboration. On a side note the music towards the end (Claude Debussy's Arabesque No. 1) was also used in the Jack Horkheimer TV show Stargazer.
good afternoon ! I love to watch you and I look at Elegant Oxford with pleasure! Thank you so much
Nice to see two of my favourite UA-camd working together, and finally see Preston with heads and body😂
This is UA-cam Gold! Oh boy would I like to play in Kirby’s Warehouse. Fantastic seeing you guys in your element.
Just a very enjoyable video, Kirby. One of your best, I have to say. Well paced, informative, and respectful. Well done!
Two skilled Craftsmen sharing combined Lessons Learned which have evolved into shoe care Best Practices is invaluable! Well Done
Two Masters in the world of Fashion.
This crossover was amazing. I have learned so much about shoe care from both of your channels! More of these would be awesome.
There is something addictive about trying to get your shoes to look perfect!
Preston is very well put together and very Handsome.
Wow two great folks in one room. Shine masters at there best. Thanks for sharing.
Ah, this was a wonderful collaboration between two great dress shoe enthusiasts.
Love watching Preston and I agree let's bring Trenton and Heath into the mix!!
This looks like such an enjoyable collaboration. It's great to enjoy your craft/collection/hobby with others who appreciate and enjoy.
A well pair of shined shoes shows...intention and effort.
i hope he can get a mic like this for his channel one day it makes his voice sound so much softer and gentler and if he could promote his videos with a little asmr he could reach new heights fr!
Thank you for this..I've been leery of pulling the trigger on Safir because I wasn't sure of the steps to use, i.e. which product first, second etc. I do leather craft and dye leather and have been using an acrylic finish common in leathercraft but I've been wanting to use a wax on a new journal cover I'm going to be starting. Thank you
You are a great host Kirby! Thanks for making this tutorial happen!
Wow what a great education with the two giants of shoe shining,Thank You,and have a Great 4th of July .Ray
Great collaboration
I watch both channels. It’s nice to put a face to a voice.
thanks a lot to both of you
Love this! More videos with Elegant Oxford please!
This is so lovely . I really enjoyed watch the whole video it is amazing to see both of you working togther...keep up the good work .
I'm 18 Y.O student and I love dress shoes I never have had a good quality pair .I'm looking forward a guide video about what to look for in a good pair of dress shoes .
I always took care of my sneakers growing up because I only got like 2 pairs a year so that really made me appreciate them and not just toss them aside
a great "shoe iron" I use for creases is a spoon that has been sitting in boiling water. It will be hot and will produce its own steam. If you are refurbishing old thrift store shoes with heavy creases I will just steam them over boiling water. You won't have to buy a thing. With a shoe tree its fabulous.
Great video Kirby! Also great to see The Elegant Oxford!!!
Both of you are giving interesting presentations. Are you aware a number of folks including myself find them so relaxing. Its like a Zen session or a glass of brandy. My son in law was taking an interest but saw you in the office move video in a t-shirt and shorts . !!!! Even menswear heroes dress down sometimes!
Best. Collab. Ever.
Just bought some pig hair brushes from Kirby, inspired by this video. 👍🏻
This was delightful to watch. Thanks for sharing.
This is awesome to see 2 legends just hanging out.
I just watched one dude watch another dude shine shoes.
Lol
And you loved it.
I like this video because Kirby brought Eligent Oxford on board. Thanks
I really like this episode, my two favorite individuals in the world of shoe care in one place, what a treat!
What a great video, two talented individuals with different takes on polishing. I always learn something from you guys on every video.
Wow did i ever learn allot from one video. Excellent!
What an absolutely fantastic video. These videos just keep getting better and better
Great work as usual Preston. I can tell though, u like ur own environment. I am the same way when it comes to my designs. I am better on my own playing field. Thank u for sharing, I appreciate u.
Wonderful collaboration. I had pictured Preston looking like Dennis Miller. He kinda reminds me of my favorite character Krillin from Dragon Ball.
My two new favorite guys. Excellent collaboration!
I follow both of these men. This was fun and a good use of free time. Thanks men.
So nice to see how you collaborate with other UA-cam like-minded experts! How great that is!
That was awesome! Shoe shine masters come together.
At first I thought... Hey, Preston took my Graysons to Dallas. Great video!
Great to see Preston and Kirby work together on a shoe shine project.
Best shoes shine video ever ! What a pleasure to see such a nice collaboration! Bravo from Paris, France :)
Another Collaboration video between my subscription. Love the fact that they love shoes and are able to work well together. Great Video!
Two of youtubes finest gentlemen. Great collab
Fantastic collaboration! I hope you don't stop here.
***** EVERY ONE ******
I'VE NEVER DONE THIS BEFORE BUT...
As a slightly above average shoe enthusiast (not aficionado) I am asking on behalf
Kirby Allison and The Elegant Oxford.
If you are making a favorable comment please take an extra second to hit the like on this video.
You guys are fantastic! Simply kicking rear end!
That supply room is a big boys candy store!
Big boys are still boys. That's a gentleman's candy store.
My two favorite UA-camrs in one video. Great!
Preston is the king of mirror shines. Look at the difference in the right shoe vs the left.
Epic collab!
What a devilishly handsome man - Preston, great to see you in a video with Kirby :-)
Beautiful colab!
