Thanks for watching!

lol Never imagined a Bob Ross comment here haha

Restoring one yourself can be relaxing as well, take my word for it

Relaxing? That was anxiety for me at the halfway point

@@KAM128 well, I meant restoring when inking is not included

Fedora Usado I was actually responding to the original comment by instrumental white noise. But I’m sure restoring one yourself is relaxing. Gots to take pride with ones accomplishments

@@KAM128 oops, my bad!

Haha totally worth it.

He can get many multiple uses out of that product and make it back in one sales. I use kiwi for my leather goods and vintage but the cost really isnt much more for safir

@@VinceGoodrum i know i ran through my saphir polish on 5 pair of boots/dress shoes and they are $38 dollars a piece thats just the polish. i wasnt exaggerating about how much money it cost him in products. kiwi is like 5x cheaper than saphir i wouldnt use it on my lawn mowing shoes.

@@charleywaynehinkle6358 you can buy it wholesale for a lot less but he only needs to use it once for an item as he's going to sell it. I usually restore clothing and just started with shoes....have a pair of Johnson and Murphy black oxfords in the back. Should be an easy job

Result: a unique eyecatcher leatherbag that'll set you back five times or more than that if you buy it new (given that you find it)

same!

yeah wasnt really a good job

Feel the same way. Not my style but I appreciate the craftsmenship

Thank you!

Well at least You're stocked with undies

I used to think I would never be caught dead in a thrift store, then , one day tagging along with a friend who wanted to stop at the local thrift store, I found a lambskin leather jacket with shearling collar in my size. It looks brand new. I googled the jacket and it sells in several stores and websites for $1,300.00 I paid $20.00 keep looking!!!

Well, in my thrift shop scoreboard. I have: Got an aquasqutum coat (~1200$) for 35. A vintage usa marine 1945-1950 peacoat for 25. A bunch of suits from half canvas to bespoke for 10-30$. Some Canadian made shoes. My most prized is a vintage Dack ( the AE of Canada) that is ~30 years old but look kinda good after i restore them.

Small town chartity sales are goldmines, but you can also hunt well in big thriftstores. It IS a hunt, you can't expect finding something every time, but if you just imagine how much stuff people buy that they actually never use, chances are quite good that you find basically new, high quality products quite frequently. Of course in big cities chances are a little better when you can make a tour through several thrifts. It also is, at least for me, a really nice day off afternoon occupation. Go for a walk, browse here and there - it's a bit like a urban version of a walk in the woods looking for mushrooms :) - and with all this tips you find on channels like this one, you can really score amazing stuff

Selling used underwear is illegal.

I posted before I read yours. Amen to that thought!

Was thinking that while watching

"It's a SATCHEL, Indiana Jones wears one!"

😂😂😂😂

Michelle what a great idea !

Workbench...

It’s a cheeseboard

Steve Taylor cheeseboard stands for?

A shoemaker walks around bare foot.

I already did, lol.

Yea but that wasn't supposed to happen. That's the whole point of this video! The dying should've turned out smooth and blended, like it does with his shoes, but for some reason the leather was weird or something.

Well, I did get a pair of distressed Frye boots, but I got them used on Poshmark for an amazing deal. They're my favorite boots.

Everyone needs a branding iron if for nothing more than steaks, but he'd get real use of of it! ("half diamond over RJ" was my grandfather's brand

Although the colour really fits to his style in shoes

I agree it looked better undyed but it’s not bad

You're right . I wished to leave it in the original color

No, I like the rustic look

nah.. it looks sooo much better now

That's what I thought too.

Its supposed to look worn, that was the point lol

@@wjerame No it wasn't supposed to look this streaked though. He wanted the dye blended smoothly through - he clearly says that.

Lol.. been there

😂😂😂

@Salomon Arreguin HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Lmfao, that was funny. 🤣🤣

Hey, those dudes are legit too. 😂

Sprezzatura

sorry about you're feelings.......but.......fuck off mate.......

You have to really go frequently. I'll go sometimes and not find anything. Then one day I found a Coach purse for $3. I had to dig thru a shopping cart full of junky purses though

I know someone, that brought his brand new very expensive distressed jeans with lots of fashionable holes and rips in it to a befriended grandma, who always made an excellent job at shortening his trousers or repairing some clothes, so that nobody would even notice there was something wrong with it. But this time he didn't count her accuracy in. Instead of just shortening his jeans she also made a huge effort to get all those ripped and destroyed parts repaired. She literally "destroyed" that expensive look he paid so much money for, thinking she was helping out. She ended up rolling back, getting it close to it's original store bought look and putting new ideas in on how to look destroyed. He was very satisfied with its new outcome. A real original!

@Howard Pearcey a guy I used to know was a bartender at a club. Earlier that day, he armor all-ed his bike concentrating on the seat. He forgot about it, then come time to leave, goosed the bike to get out of the parking lot. He wound up sitting on the ground and the bike wound up in the ditch on the other side of the road. He wasn't hurt, the bike wasn't much hurt, a few scratches, so he got on it and rode it to the local coffee shop... very carefully. We had seen it, and razzed him about it like you wouldn't believe

Berluti 😊🇨🇦

@Howard Pearcey WD didn't it was armor all if that's what you're referring to.

@Howard Pearcey spray nine? never heard of it.

@Howard Pearcey It's available online here, but I live in the sticks, we don't have a whole lot available locally. I found a good cleaner at the DG store of all places, and they abruptly quit carrying it.

Thanks!

Thanks for watching

It’s straight up saddle leather

Average guys channel I couldn’t for the life of me figure out what this reminded me of but you figured it out for me lol!!!

You got that right

Thanks, Bryan!

@Howard Pearcey for 8 dollars I would buy it inmediately. I guess it was luck.

thats a Kenneth Cole bag which RRP 335$

varun jain Had the same bag. Bought a few years back at Staples for like $70. Complete garbage. Buckle kept coming loose at the snap in both sides. Poorly designed. I have some nice expensive bags that are much more durable but if you want a bargain bag that looks great and doesn’t fall apart buy a Ted Baker. You get can a nice one for about $150 and they not only look great but are very durable.

In my country you can find an even better one for 2 dollars only, Used of course

@@GadGetHackss where? Maybe the call send them to my country

I’m glad you liked it!

It's a spiel bag. The game's on. Whereas before it was like everyone's vanilla leather bag, and now has a personality all it's own. I did the same thing to my favorite Fossil leather bag. Happy accidents.

that not how a rustic bag looks , but the patina matches ur shoes

My dad uses it every Sunday

Thanks!

I’m going to be Bob Ross for Halloween

Literally same steps on a larger scale I guess

TheDeluche , I seriously thought I was going to be the only one to think this.
