Sittin around watching paint dry has never been so satisfying 😎

Great work as usual my Boi, that’s exactly what I would’ve did with that shoe the Chicago’s are rare to find and very pricey 10/10

Love that you got the proper tag and all, they came out dope, its funny cause im actually about to change a pair of heritage 1s into trophy room 1s, so basically something similar lol

Sometimes I use a poker or a seam ripper. But be careful when using it, you could rip a seam when stuffing the tape under the leather.

I don’t recommend this custom for wear, even with proper preparation these don’t last. Painting white on a red toe takes a lot of coats and can cause cracking. Look on eBay Heritage Jordan 1 and look at the grave yard of cracked Heritage customs.

Please take a second to look at eBay under “Air Jordan 1 hertiage custom” you will find there are a graveyard of cracked bred/chi customs. This custom is not for beginners. This custom doesn’t need just acetone or deglazer to make it work, there is a lot more prep that go into these.

Thank you. I was also wondering if you put deglazer or acetone on the shoe before applying red paint to the white leather. Do you prep those areas that way? And did you use acetone before painting the red toe box white? It’s my first time & I want to get it right 🙏

@@memaximoron I used acetone on this one because I really wanted to get a ruffed up. But you have to be careful as you can damage your leather and I also sand. I then use bulldog adhesion promoter. I also recommend an air brush for this custom as the toe box takes a lot of paint. You want this area as smooth as possible

@@squad10konquer88 I don’t recommend this custom be done just by anyone. This custom should cost $300 I charge $200. But this custom can be easily damaged because of all the paint that goes into this custom. To change that red toe box to white takes a lot of paint. That’s a lot of money to waist if you accidentally kick a rock. This take about 4 weeks to be done correctly and can take 1 sec to be destroyed. It’s not worth it to the customer or the customizer. Sorry but there are better ways to get Chicagos and I recommend using a Aj1 “newstalgia” as the base.
