How $200 Air Jordan Bred 4s Are Professionally Repainted | Refurbished

[@Zeraphor]

"First we have to remove the paint, because we want new paint. It's important to remove the paint to get new paint for good look. The old paint is acrylic, we have to remove it and repaint the shoe. The old paint has to get scratched off before applying new paint. To remove the paint we scratch it off, because it's old - we want new paint. We want to repaint the shoe, so we have to remove old paint. ..."

[@yuranamo]

"It's necessary to remove the old paint so we can get a nice clean surface to adhere to." But tbh, it's just painting a shoe there's nothing much to talk about

[@jsilva7005]

Yo but what i dont get is why they scrape off the old paint??? Could you please elaborate why it’s necessary.

[@DontlookNoW_]

😂shyt easy

[@shmqcked]

@@jsilva7005 cuz some parts will be more bolder than other parts plus he said in the video that the old paint will start to chip off so if u already chip the whole thing off and repaint it then it wouldn't chip off

[@potatomatop9326]

Can they also professionally refurbish human beings?

[@jin_cotl]

I luv u

[@seraphimsforge-master5433]

They could, that's what you call a rehab and private healthcare

[@trizzerd]

Adoption centres?

[@misterminutes4504]

Plastic surgeons?

[@BlenderStudy]

Thank you for the update, Insider..!! Wow, that looks new at the end..!! @.@ That's an awesome job..!!

[@simonfernandes6158]

"The shoe we are working on is the bred 12" 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@Guac445]

As in Jordan 4 2012

[@dayman152]

Dudes making this seem like super complex work when anybody could do this themswlves

[@MunitorLP]

i literally did this 2 months ago on my old nike shoes. Spend around 20€ for paint, brushes and tape... They looking brand new now

[@soyburglar1878]

I don’t think they “made it seem” more complex than it was. Pretty much most services are things people could technically do themselves, but prefer to pay someone else to do them. For instance, I own a lawn mower and could cut my own grass. But because I hate the summer heat and value my time, I hire someone to cut it for me. This logic is not something that is difficult to understand.

Yeah right bud. Give it a shot and tell me anyone can do it

[@blank_C7]

This is good to know because I am getting a pair of Jordan 4 bred reimagined and I know I’ll have to repaint them eventually 😊

[@Sporkyspork]

So... All they did was repaint the sole with some acrylics?

[@Guac445]

Yeah they repainted the midsole

[@S4TURNNNNN.]

Can I use a acrylic paint then spray it with waterproof sprayer

[@edg.4050]

Is it better to use Angelus white or Flat paint?

[@sovietred7371]

Meanwhile me:"...but shoe is shoe, why pay $200 for shoe...I walk in mud and sand and even step in the occasional animal skat... SHOE IS SHOE!!!

[@troll2637]

Some people don't even wear these. They collect these and put them in glass boxes. Tf right?

[@lol-pj6ss]

So 250 before the refurb, how much after?

[@UsmanAli-xg7ew]

They told you that in the video ,but I was wondering how much the paint job costs.

[@lol-pj6ss]

@@UsmanAli-xg7ew must have missed it, timestamp?

[@JuanEsquivel-ex8nv]

@@lol-pj6ss They said 500 for all of but I'm guessing 400 for restored?

[@monopolizedopamine]

I wear all of my shoes but people REALLY put the beats down. Edit: my military 4s are from the same year and I only had to correct the yellowing of the rubber.

[@stingray10]

Damm really? The paint just cracks out of nowhere

[@CommentLeaver.]

This is some real basic refurbing

[@abinayaria5345]

Refurbished is very addictive!! Ngl

[@bstaznkid4lyfe392]

I hate shoes that use crappy paint and it crack within a month..

[@lars6051]

but would a buyer get informed if his "new" shoe was restored, therefore isn't original anymore?

[@julietaylor2685]

All that effort for pair of shoes that cost 10 bucks to manufacture…

[@rickthepickle4226]

How do you repair the upper part when it scratches off.

[@douglasallen6262]

Find a nubuck repair kit with nubuck powder

[@Androbench]

I have a busted up pair of Jordan 4 can you help repair them

[@jahcash4280]

Where can I go?

[@Wasechubby]

I have some 2012 Breds. I scraped and used acetone and that paint would not come off!

[@ripr_tommy7026]

200 dolares solo un par? disculpa maestro si me compro 12 pares a 170 dolares, pero asi es el once champagne

[@PresidentCoochieGrabber]

2012 bred 4's are not worth buying or restoring now that the og re released in og form

[@rouij.9208]

Not here to hate but were those legit J4s bred? The Jumpman logos on the tongue and rear are off.

[@nickcosta3333]

"I chose not to tape off the upper of the shoe cuz it's delicate material and I don't wanna get paint on it so I'd rather trust my eye than the tape to stop the paint " cuz your eye is way more accurate than the tape at stopping paint right bud?

[@syedmuhammadhasan6719]

It look like a pro doing a great work

[@luked772]

Anyone gonna question why this man got such a potato mike

[@gilmore6168]

Just Solid

[@joeljoseph3344]

This is professional refurbishment?? He literally scrapped the paint off with a scissor .

[@Guac445]

Ok you do a professional midsole paint job

[@JB-vt5sz]

No need to restore those. They just walk in and take them now

[@theunion6024]

Thin your paints or air brush it

[@Guac445]

That’s not necessary unless you are using an airbrush

[@FinancialShinanigan]

Not gonna lie, looked nice with the whites

[@dukeshaver199]

Just goes to show how absolutely dumb people are that they will pay that much money for a stupid athletic shoe and we've sunk so low that instead of repairing and renovating beautifully made shoes we waste time on this. This does not bode well for the future of humans.

[@jayalldayism]

I have the same pair worn once and the black paint cracked.

[@Guac445]

Probably because it’s an old pair and I would buy Angelus to fix it

[@jayalldayism]

@@Guac445 I fixed them with angelus paint 🙌🏽 came out pretty good

I could feel like the refurbishing costs more than just buying new pair.

“Bred 12”

[@cocojamboyeah]

That's so dumb lol! Guy just scrubs the old paint over and over over again...

[@Urdarlingisdead]

Sorry, I'm not a jogger...could care less.

I don't think jordans are made for jogging. 😂 So you should care more.

Ok then. I absolutely destroy shoes. Went to HS in the early 90s so we were ankle deep in the shoes are the big thing in fashion right now phase. $100+ high tops hold the laces.
