Louis Vuitton Bucket Bag resto

[@thefaustrutch5625]

People like him should be recognized and instead we should invest our money for repairing bags/shoes to this kind of man knowing that all our expectations will come through, this guy is skilled, excellent and understand what he is doing to repair the bag with quality. Imagine that’s Louis Vuitton bag and he made it same as before, I’m pretty sure it’s also better than before. You see the stitching? That is totally difficult to do, because one wrong move the hole would get worse. Bravo to this guy really. Thumbs up and totally amazing 👍🙌👏

[@po2143]

Stitching in the same holes is one of those things Steve makes look easy but is actually so difficult it drives lesser mortals insane. Great work as per usual, maaaan!

[@tamiz8895]

Yes, it always amazes me -he does it with surgical precision!

[@jillspringthorpe3273]

I worked a post machine

[@ManSha108]

damn its true, I'd tried once, it was difficult

[@4115t41r]

When I left school 1970 and went looking for a job, craftsmen, people working with their hands, were paid poorly. Nowadays they are getting what their skill deserves.

[@joseywales3789]

@Alistair Blanch, only sometimes, I served in the British Armed Forces as an Engineer for 16 years, unfortunately I got injured and was Medically Discharged. I was always interested in hunting, fishing and shooting and as I'm now Disabled, I looked at engraving, especially firearm engraving, as a second profession (I enjoyed it as a hobby) what I discovered was that 3D Laser engraving was cheap and mass produced and hand engraving paid so poorly that most firearm engravers take on other work such as jewellery engraving and even designing the engraving for the 3D Lasers! Sadly, here in Britain, hand engraving is a dying art form.

[@dragonlover2085]

My father was a craftsman, born 1932, he had to work very hard his whole life and he died only 71 years old. Too young for my understanding.

[@novembermiss]

You are giving all of your handbag fans a treat with this video. Especially love when you do the vintage bags--those vintage Vuittons were very well made back then! I'm sure the customer was very pleased--she'll be able to use this bag for another 20 years if she likes. Beautiful bag, beautiful job!

[@fastlee84]

Dirty Hands is a sign of clean money! 😅

[@DulceHernandez-bn2nx]

Wise words 🤯

[@richardmicklethwaite9251]

“ I think it turned out ok” Something of an understatement. Great work, as always.

[@ERSlots]

I know I will never repair LV bags but I'm addicted to watching your videos 😍 You are such a patient man and you have great skills! Good job restoring them 👏 keep the videos coming 👍👍👍

[@annseabolt6645]

Love to watch your videos. I make many of my own handbags out of upholstery material because while I have a commercial sewing machine it’s a garment machine and won’t handle thick leather. Your videos give me hints to use in construction.

[@angelinaklineburgess5286]

Love the comments about holding onto the threads as you start; so true on most industrial machines !

[@RatdogDRB]

The people who scoff at the price of the repair of these bags, need to go visit the LV website and see how much these things are going for 'new'. I'm still amazed at how much people pay for a label/logo, and are ignorant as to what they're getting for their money. Gawdy print, cheesy lining materials, cardboard stiffeners. The bags are far superior after you've given 'em your touch, and upgraded the materials as needed.

[@ro63rto]

I've certainly opened a few eyes and changed people's minds by showing them a few of these videos. No more visits to various factory outlets in Italy 😆

[@justanotherperson584]

Who could scoff? Your getting a new bag practically.

[@tamiz8895]

Absolutely right 👍🏻

[@ladyesther3400]

LV bags are durable, stylish, and have excellent customer support. It comes with lifetime warranty and free cleaning. I have a 22-year old Monceau 28 handed down by my sister to me. When I computed it, considering the life of the bag, the daily cost is $0.25 per day. So what is not to like? The restoration made on the video is extensive. I had mine repaired by LV for $380 - replacement of lining and restitching of the exterior part in 2019. This guy really did an awesome job. 👏👏👏

[@RatdogDRB]

@@ladyesther3400 First, I don't see the wisdom in paying (let's use your numbers) $2000+ dollars for a bag which appears gawdy, nothing more than paying to have a company's logo splattered all over it... just so that everyone can SEE that I have a certain brand of bag (that's vain). Second, I sure as HELL would not pay $2000+ for a bag if I KNEW it was constructed with cardboard stiffeners, and had a lining which would crumble and turn to goo after a number of years. Elegance is subtle in appearance, and would use a fine/thin leather inside lining, and would use something more durable than cardboard (even plastic sheeting would be an improvement). A well made shoe is more complicated to construct than a bucket bag, and if I watch the sales, I can buy a pair of Allen Edmonds Strand Oxfords for $150 (and, NOT "seconds" or "returns"), I know, I have a pair being shipped now. And, even IF some of the materials inside of it are of lesser quality than I like, I could have them (right out of the box) rebuilt by Steve and have far less money into that pair of shoes than $2000+. The point, do your due diligence and KNOW what you're getting for your money, don't just get suckered into a "brand/label" that you assure yourself with: "It must be good, I paid a lot of money for it."

[@1957jmhiser1]

A beautiful repair. I've learned so much watching you through the years

[@Reality_TV]

I love your comments when you are working! LMAO! You are funny and talented! I also love that sometimes you show your mistakes. You don't try to act or be perfect, except in your work! You are AWESOME!

[@philipnewton3739]

I’m into working with wood but am always happy to watch a craftsman whatever he works with.

[@504CreoleCrystal]

That’s working man hands! Reminds me of my daddy’s hands. He was a longshoreman ☺️ That purse is a few months older than my child 😫😆

[@dmack1827]

For those of us who are new to leatherwork, this was a really good learning video. I learned something today. Great video, Steve!

[@laurienovak2250]

yet another great restoration, you’ve given her another 20 years of use- I am awed by how easily you maintain stitching in the previous holes -that takes massive talent, and I think you’ve chosen a perfect lining material!

[@sarahhardy8649]

I love the sound of the post machine (not the genny), it just sounds so smoothly mechanical. Absolutely crack job with the sewing, and close up! I’ve been a seamstress for a few years and would be embarrassed for such a close up of my work. I’d be proper happy for half the talent you have.

[@maryalexandro2550]

If my Luco GM ever needs to be repaired or fresh n up, I‘ll gladly ship it to you. Even if I live in Germany. I do not know u personally, but watching ur videos, I fully trust you. This bag is like a piece of me, so trustworthy and Kind hands are a must! And yours are. Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪

[@BedosLeatherworksLLC]

👍👍❤️❤️❤️

[@fernbrisot325]

Lovely repair. The close-up shots in the beginning really show how beat up the lining is.

[@justanotherperson584]

Your hands are fine. I try to camouflage my hard working hand by painting my nails. That is wicked cool. Very nice. Thank you, to the gift giver. People appreciate you, including myself.

[@legioner9]

I press like first, then I watch your videos. These Louis Vuitton bag repair videos are just great. Take care and keep up the great work.

[@PabloJ1968]

Ditto.

[@glorianelson9538]

Another masterpiece. I've watched some "restorers" just do away with the lining and leave the bare canvas...No comment here. Last year I learned that a new LV factory was opening up in Texas (not really sure where but I seem to remember somewhere just outside of Houston) You may want to investigate in case you'd be interested. And you threw in a new lining for the pochette...my goodness! Great work !

[@kdnick8584]

Louis Vuitton is my one and only vice. Love watching these repairs

[@belleboucles3646]

This is ridiculously fascinating, from the craftsmanship to the sound effects. Excellently executed sir!

[@tonygloster8829]

These videos and your workmanship is a pleasure to watch Steve great restoration

[@ErictheRedCantona]

Another great project Steve. Still amazes me how you make these bags look so good. 👜

[@twinslotaddicts]

That was so cool!!! You always do much better than OK because you’re a craftsman and you care about putting out a quality product!!! I’d be willing to bet you’ve never in your life given a customer an “ok” repair/refurbishment!!!!!!

[@miroslavapobjecka330]

You have blessed hands Mr. Bedo 🙌 its amazing how you can swap from hammer time to gentle work like this. And watches are damn cool ⌚👌... So let's continue & thank you 👍

[@Blove0130]

Another great project done beautifully!!! Please, everyone that have bags (especially expensive bags), keep the bags stuffed so they won’t lose their shape. I save those plastic pillows that come in my delivered packages and use them to stuff my bags. My bags still look good because they are still in the original shape.

[@tedbarr1551]

I really enjoy your videos...I like the way you deconstruct items and renew them.

[@fldallyb]

Hello Steve, I just want to mention again how much I enjoy your videos and Most importantly the fact that you give us the price of the repair. Thank you and keep up the good work.

[@justsoundzzz]

Has anyone ever told you your laugh is contagious? 😄

[@jwaterous224]

Steve you are becoming a star! So, never change your "roll!" It was cool when your real time work started to look like sped up video as you were talking about the lower bobbin tension adjustment screw.

[@mkivy]

Wow Steve! What a gr8 job! I look forward to ur videos! “ Let’s Continue!”... my wife is a “Nail Nut!” And I showed her your nails, “ doesn’t bother me” ,but man she gets after me if she sees I didn’t use a brush with my soap 🧼...so my nails are buff! Lol 😝...I told her to “Leave him alone”. He works with his hands and should praise him not want to visit him with a brush and soap! U take care sir, stay healthy ...bless u and ur family!

[@superiorknight]

I really liked this one. I don’t sew or anything but I like how you showed me/us how you did it. I dunno I liked this one. Thumbs up.

[@sasbas001]

Hi Steve. A little info about the date code. From the early 90's until 2006, the first and third number is the month. So that would match this bag. But from 2007 to present, the first and third number is the week :)

[@WarpFactor999]

Where oh where could our beloved Steve be? Where oh where could he be? A week without Steve is a week without sunshine! Forever sad shall we be!

[@eyebidder]

Steve, if you get a manicure people would think you contract out your work!

[@BedosLeatherworksLLC]

Yup exactly

[@makeupnmedicine]

Love love love the LV restorations! Often these pieces are sentimental and I love the idea of bringing them back to life. Great new camera angles too. Merry Christmas!

[@skylarmoon6381]

Another great job. The only complaint I have,,,,Yes,,I do have a complaint,,,LOL,,is that you sped thru it fast,,..without slowing down. Love seeing your work.

[@ingridarnot3162]

Another great restoration, hardworking hands that do magic, great job Steve and also enjoying the close up video work too :)

[@robertoruiz7069]

If you guys like Steve's new amount of close up views as much as i do ,let's give him some thumbs up folks.Seeing him pull the thread out then putting that needle in the exact hole was INVIGORATING !! haha.Nice work STEVE.

[@zevgoldman6769]

The close up stitching shots were quite good. Another skill you have added to your tool kit.

[@grendalnewgod]

I can imagine the owner of the bag having a habit of carrying it on the same side, eventually wearing away the leather in that area.

[@1959Berre]

I agree, this damage looks like the result of endless friction on the same spot.

[@chasingawesomeness7648]

Thanks.. I'm always here for bag restorations!!

[@liberty8639]

Amazing! Love the handbag repairs/restorations! You are amazing!

[@ladyesther3400]

That is amazing to see how the repair is actually done. I had my Monceau 28 repaired by LV. The interior lining was replaced and the exterior stitches were redone. I was wondering how they managed to stitch them in the original holes 😅

[@mrrustygray]

The disassembly says a lot . I am sure this guy can build a far superior bag. Also, that Singer in the back. I had one, sold it, regret it every day.

[@annabiggs2534]

I love watching your repairs.

[@tonygloster3483]

I’ve just found this video Steve and I loved it unbelievable work such a transformation thumbs up all day long

[@Truth1561]

If she uses a balm on the bottom vachetta it will darken it slightly . Fabulous job once again! I really enjoy the bag videos so I’m spoilt with the two you just uploaded.

[@GaitesKlein]

I've been one of your first subscribers, and I am always so happy to watch every one of your videos. As much as seeing the restorations are great, I love your personality and attitude toward everything. Thank you for being an amazing creator and artisan. Hope I can eventually get my Louis Vuitton duffle bag over to you. Gotta get the zipper fixed. Never been used and the zipper failed.

[@Misha-zc1ly]

Wow, the bag looks beautiful now!

[@amberxai]

Steve you are the leather guru and a master. I love your beautiful work as always ❤️.

[@nancytromm7420]

Two Thumbs and Two big toes Up! Excellent video, love the little tips you give, very nice job, how nice that you lined the little pouch, CLASS!

[@dadedubbledee]

Great job Steve. I always enjoy watching you at work picking up tips too to improve my game. Thanks buddy

[@arcadiogarridoruiz7206]

[@drayad2]

Awesome closeups! Great restoration as usual! 👍🏽

[@f308gtb1977]

Steve, forgive me for taking two weeks to get to watching this video! It was great! I’m loving all the zoomed-in video shots you’re doing lately with the stitching and stuff.

[@TheCLouiseA]

Ive just found this channel and i love it and that bag restoration was beautiful 👌🏻 you're a true craftsman. Love it! I want this bag!

[@brixiu5]

I love that you continue doing these. You are becoming a pretty good videographer!

[@aqueen433]

Cute little bag after that nice work. Always good to see a bag tossed in there with the shoes. 🙂

[@2packs4sure]

Damn,,, a customer gifted you a thousand dollar watch,,, cool !!

[@kathysanchez5945]

The close up video of your work is Awesome!!!

[@fiddleywest3778]

That POV stitching was awesome!

[@breakalegfpv9532]

high quality production on the filming side as well, thank you for your knowledge sharing.

[@gregorythomas2674]

Fair price amd great work! Bag looks brand new and beats buying a new one in this case. Amazing work as always! 👍

[@marwanal-mukhtar2708]

This bag looks beautiful. Great work Steve👍

[@actuallowroller]

Looks like another fantastic job! Thanks for sharing your incredible craftsmanship with us. Stay well.

[@andrewturnbull5897]

I love your work! Beautiful and functional with tremendous attention to details. Wonderful!

Again: superior work, great filming and excellent commentary! Just what fans are looking for, Steve. What we need during Covid-19 and self isolating. Thank You!

[@cathyle-roux9648]

Omg I have the same bag however it’s in mint condition on the outside but inside it looks about the same.My bag is 30 years old, I hardly wear it.Wow your work’s amazing!!😍

[@fishlover9945]

I rehab bags too , and it's unbelievable how some people treat them . I mean hey it's there money so do what you want . However, for me I could never !!! I treat my LVs literally like baby ❤️ lol I'm rehabbing a tallboy(bucket) currently and you wouldn't believe the way it came to me !

[@glenniseather8254]

I absolutely love watching your videos. Such craftsmanship and care. Love from Australia

[@annroche3762]

Brilliant work as usual Steve. Hard working hands

Where you work with your hands every day I must say I'm quite impressed by what good condition they are in.

[@caroleroseburgh1344]

[@hattiecolley54]

Genius at ur trade. Luv u work Bedo, and thank u for sharing!

[@SuzWhat]

I feel a video thanking those who participated in the giveaway is sufficient. No need to email everyone.

[@tamiz8895]

When you were stitching and also adjusting the tension on the thread, that alone is why I would never even attempt to try a repair on an expensive bag like this! Leave it to an expert and you will get expert results!!!

[@nickbatson1306]

Steve love all the information your hand are working hands not for show great job as normal all the best from the UK 🇬🇧 stay safe

[@bekki2308]

Wow, I’m always amazed at the build quality and construction of these bags. I have some leather goods from Spanish markets for very little that are far better built. To each their own spending that money for that label.

[@MrsYasha1984]

Fricking cardboard plate on the bottom...

[@ashleybrabson6051]

It’s fake. If you look at the date code 4:03, you can see that the ribbit isn’t up straight (they would never) Also Noe’s bottoms are supposed to be in all vachetta. This one wasn’t. So either it was a limited edition with a messed up ribbit or it’s a dupe.

[@kellynorton2960]

Not a noe, it's a petite bucket bag. They don't make them anymore. Definitely not a fake.

[@lloyd2364]

Love love love you videos makes this new zealander super relaxed xxxxxx keep them comming my friend

[@AppleHater2012]

Love those close ups 👍🏼👍🏼

[@delphium]

So satisfying to see the end results

I found this video to be so relaxing. Thanks!

[@giovanisoprano5161]

Hey Steve, I have a question. I went to a cobbler this week to have some work done on my ferragamo drivers they resolled the shoes but you can see the glue sticking out of the sides is that normal? I may end up sending some shoes to you I’m disappointed I can’t find any one good here

[@sonyaeatman1270]

Beautiful work! You are a master craftsman!

[@elainenextdoor]

Thank you for including the costs of your jobs. I’m always curious as to how much it costs to repair. That’s a super fair price especially if you can purchase an old bag for cheap!

[@aa6355-r4m]

Great work as always! Is there a way to resole cup soled sneakers(margom sole) like common projects?

[@jacobbwalters8133]

I know that Allen Edmonds resoles some of their cub sole sneakers (not all) and I have not heard of anyone else doing that.

[@BedosLeatherworksLLC]

Anything is possible

[@mickyjb2003]

Great job, well done. Just love watching your vlogs.

[@kitterzy]

That watch is cool af! Now I’m jealous. I love artsy-fartsy stuff too.
