It isn't for everyone, and some people are a little silly about it, but if it makes people happy, that's what matters.

I bought 3 of these, i made one into chicagos, second into breds and left the last one as is. They sell for under retail sometimes👍

Great Job, well done! My 2nd custom i turned "light fusion 1's" into "Fuchicago 1's" lol Couple tips: You can use something as a pry tool (long thin and flat) to lift the seems, like with the swoosh to make detail work a lil easier. 6:22 As far as cleaning the white when you paint on it accidentally, don't use anything like alcohol or acetone because it will remove the clear coat and when you see it in the right lighting you can tell its the only spot without clear coat. Just use a cotton swab with water as soon as it happens, it should still work tho even if it dried as long as you didn't clear coat it. Also the cotton swab is too thick sometimes and if you're not carefoul you can remove some paint from somewhere you didn't too, so it's best to take like half the cotton off the tip of the swab and twist it so you can be more precise with it. Thanks for the inspiration man, keep grindin! This "Chicago" custom will definitely be next which will make it my 4th, wish me luck!

"Also the cotton swab is too thick sometimes and if you're not carefoul you can remove some paint from somewhere you didn't too, so it's best to take like half the cotton off the tip of the swab and twist it so you can be more precise with it." This tool you are making was invented many years ago. It's called a q-tip.

Well done man, you and Juan Wilson have inspired me to customize my own pair.

Killer work! Great attention to the detail and esp the white stitching!

Glad to see you get a video to do well above your average, in terms of views! Keep up the good work brother, looks like you know what you need to be doing more of! Much love from Texas, yeehaw 🤠🤘🏾

Very clean work my man, I’m planning on doing this custom myself soon and the tips you shared are amazing

I hadn't thought of customizing shoes in this way before. This opens up so many possibilities

Beautiful, man! Absolutely beautiful!

Amazing work!!!

Man these are Fire!! U did a great job

I like that you customized one shoe but left the other original. 🔥🔥 Dope AF 🔥🔥

I’ve had this vid on my watch later for a loooong time. I finally had the opportunity to do his and the vid helped a lot. Hope to keep doing customizations like this for the future to save some cash, and also it’s just sick to know you did a project on your own

they look great 💪

The corners of that Nike Swoosh can be tough… I also did it before with one of my AJ 1 mids and had to use thin brush and had alcohol and acetone always available. Great job man!

Nice work, man. Can I just ask you what angelus red matches Jordan's gym red? Thank you.

Damn nice work!!

Thanks bro, this video gave me the courage to paint my black toes to white.

NICE WORK!!

That’s a perfect custom to the Chicago’s. It my #1 shoe of all time.

10 months later I am going to do this 100%, going to follow this vid the next time I can get a pair. Are there any other pairs that are good for customs?

nice one man !since a bought the AJ1 heritage i thought doing that but i didn't know how to do it and now with your great video i think am going to do it, because i cannot get the lost and found and i refuse to pay resell prices for the shoes .if i can get it when it's coming out retail price am very happy if i cannot then i'll pass .thanks again, and continue to inspire us

Great video. I'm finishing my first Heritage custom and I am very proud of my results. Do you have any suggestions for cleaning up those very fine paint smudges, like on areas where the toebox meets the outsole? I feel like if I try to use a cotton ball or toothpick with deglazer, I run the risk of unpainting the areas I just finished painting 😮‍💨

Congrats man you gained like 90 subs today from yesterday

That video was really simple but it was fire. I respect anyone who uses a detail brush to get the sides of the leather. 9/10, the ONLY reason for the deduction is the double taping of the tongue which was redundant.

The white and red are fine just like it is!

Beautiful job! As someone who can never win anything on SNKRS, thanks for this tutorial haha. Wondering if you got any paint cracking (primarily on the toe box) on these since you’ve made this tutorial?

It cracks...it doesn't fade though. They never wear like Factory. The better quality leather paints last longer, but it will always crack & age differently.. especially if you're trying to cover over black

That is so satisfying to see

Great video, I purchased two of these sneakers and going to do the same thing. One will be the black toe. Cheers my friend!

How is the paint in the long run? I have 2 pairs of these and wanted them to custom for bred and chicag.

Dope custom!!

Clean job bro

Yo great job!

Just buy reps, better than you could ever do with a paint job and cheaper I reccomend Mr Hou 👍

How did these hold up cause I had a pair that I painted the toe white and it cracked after several wears from the creasing

I am your 1000th subscriber wow

u can also use a sharpie for the edges of the leather and it will work just as well since the leather fibers will absorb it

yo this is so cool!

How do you keep the paint from cracking at the creases 🤷🏾‍♂️ I used Angelus Direct and sandpaper!

did you use the 'Matte 4-coat' at the end when you finished??

Plain red color matches original red on the shoe? Nice video btw!

I like the swoosh red

How much time did it take you to paint it ?

I think a Bred custom would be better , since the Nike tag on the tounge already has the bred colors

Do you use a gas filtration/protective mask when you use these paints or airbrush or matte finish spray?

Awesome Job! Do you take orders?

Good job my man

Stumbled on Your ch. quick airbrush question. I know nothing about them HOWEVER would jump at a chance to get one use one etc etc question do You have to clean it each time You use a color to spray for say a Custom SNKR? Any help or tips would be very much appreciated 🙏🏽 ~ Thee Snkr SVAG

My buddy used a big syringe 💉 ment for like feeding tubes and uses it for things they the swoosh bottom that you had to use the smaller brush for ...put a small brush on the end so they can just add paint as they move and can be one continuously brush stroke

Very nice!!

Looks pretty smooth. Great job. Would you be willing to do the same to another pair of Heritages?
