    When things were at their very worst: 2 Suns, Cross in the sky, 2 comets will collide = don`t be afraid - repent, accept Lord`s Hand of Mercy. Scientists will say it was a global illusion. Beware - Jesus will never walk in flesh again. After WW3 - rise of the “ man of peace“ from the East = Antichrist - the most powerful, popular, charismatic and influential leader of all time. Many miracles will be attributed to him. He will imitate Jesus in every conceivable way. Don`t trust „pope“ Francis = the False Prophet - will seem to rise from the dead - will unite all Christian Churches and all Religions as one. One World Religion = the seat of the Antichrist. Benedict XVI is the last true pope - will be accused of a crime of which he is totally innocent. "Many events, including ecological upheavals, wars, the schism in My Church on Earth, the dictatorships in each of your nations - bound as one, at its very core - will all take place at the same time." "Arab uprising will spark global unrest - Italy will trigger fall out" The Book of Truth

    We live in a world that it's cheaper to replace than repair. To repair normal shoes is already more expensive to buy one and it's custom that repair to expensive items will also be quite expensive ( I mean, if the customer can buy 1k shoes and let the dog chew them, I'm sure they have quite a lot of money, so your prices can be very high; expert work is also expensive) It becomes a choice to repair rather than replace. Of you have good quality shoes and you like them a lot, do repair! It's good for the environment and it's anti-comsumerism ! I personally don't fully repair my shoes but paying for them to be glued or fix small holes the soles is a must do and things like these are an okay price in my area!

    Depending on what happened to the leather and where the damage is, I would consider a dyed patch (if there's a hole/tear) instead, esp if it's on the part of the seat where your body's in regular contact. Paint will rub off real quick if it's on the part where you sit. If it's just some spots where the color has rubbed off completely on a dark leather, you can dab some oil on to make it a lot less noticeable (dab, not soak, either with a qtip for tiny spots or a rag or cotton ball for larger ones). Neatsfoot is my favorite for darkening things, it'll turn raw leather a lovely chocolate brown. Clean it before you oil it and then after, let it sit for a few hours before you drive (unless you don't mind a bit of oil on your clothes) though! (I'm not a leatherworker- I just work with horses and have cleaned + repaired a lot of horse tack.)

    @@mi3helle707 indeed. You know, when I was young...and like anyone else in 'insecure camp'... aka high school, I really didn't understand why my dad was so cheap, and frugal with his money. I remember when Air Jordans broke $100 a pair for the first time, my dad was just aghast at that!! Then, I became an adult and had my own children, and understood exactly why they were like that!! 😳😂 I must admit: *when it came to my children, I had 2...1 son, 1 daughter. I didn't spare much. I complained a lot, of course. But, I remember how brutal being a teenager was, and I didn't want them to have to worry about that kind ofi insecurity on top of all things teen.* So I just caved most often, and let them get what they wanted. I set a limited amount, and as long as they could get what they wanted within the budget I gave them, all good. I was pretty shocked by how expensive my daughter was, compared to my son though. Although, my son's martial arts interests probably evened out the expense. Nice chatting with you!! Take care! 🙏🇺🇸

It's not a horrible restoration but its definitely not masterful.
