Vick you should contact Harrison Nevel and see if you can restore the Dior 1s that Whistlin Diesel destroyed. Harrison isn't the owner of them but he had them on his channel in his last video and i'm sure he could get in touch with the owner.

Have you ever tried ozonating your shoes? With such old shoes, it is advisable to remove bacteria, fungi and unpleasant odors before washing them. Before working with the shoe, I always ozone it for comfort during work and subsequent wearing. I love your vids Vick!

Insane 🔥🔥🔥🔥 BTW I cooked up my off-white zoomfly 😢
You've outdone yourself on this one, excellent work - esp w/the back panels. When I restore shoes I've been too scared to touch rips in fabric but thought perhaps gluing/tacking another piece of fabric over it would suffice. I can see I'm not far off and shouldn't be afraid to go with my gut. Thanks for this video!
Genius idea to fix those slashes on the heel! Amazing work brotha 🔥

Great job on fixing that ripped part on the back, but why didn’t you refresh the paint on the stitched part under the swoosh next to it? Looks kinda weird next to fresh painted collar of the sneaker.

Because that panel is a different material from the panel with the cracked material. The panel I fixed was a smooth thick leather almost like patent leather that had zero cracking on the material besides the huge cut. The cracked material on that bottom panel is a notorious issue on 85’s. It’s typically frowned upon to paint over that area on OG dunks because it’s not really a fix but more like a cheap cover up that doesn’t look factory. Looks more authentic to leave as is. Hope that explains it 🤙🏽
Dang the “heel tab” almost has a ribbed effect like the 2s and 3s… kinda cool

I wish you could restore my 2013 Rbk Question in Georgetown colorway, but I don't think is gonna be as much interesting as Jordan's or other more classic shoes. Also shipping from EU to US would cost a lot.
these shoes back then have much better quality than the dunks now

Should've just left them as is. They're from '85, most real sneakerhead will understand the wear and tear. Awesome restoration tho
Those pop ups in the middle of the video promoting your products are seriously annoying. There's no need for some huge pop up to last like 30 seconds. Get rid of it
