[@danaughney3616]

If you were wearing wider trousers over the shoe I think it could give a cool look when it was still the overshoe. I appreciate both of the cut or uncut because it’s like wearing one of Tom Sachs sculptures on your feet because he draws a lot of inspiration from space.

This was probably the best custom I've seen, I'm so happy you left those straps on, gives it some spice !! 🤙🔥

[@johnguinto4386]

If you enjoyed this, you should grab a pair of the Overbreak "College Grey" colorway. Practically the Mars Yard colorway underneath. Just grab some nail polish to remove the over paint and you'll see what I mean.

[@KingsdownRoots]

Nice video, I feel your pain going through that,I did it a while ago 😂 - I cut the blue off the front toe, exposes a bit more of the shoe 👌🏼👌🏼

[@carl3063]

Not too familiar with the story behind the Mars Yard hype. But, I’d definitely want to rock that blue outsole shoe with those tabs and straps. You did a pretty good job cutting the overshoe part off. Nice work.

[@RayDoeksen]

Cus - there's a few different origin points to the "hype" - the sneaker people are a whole 'nother audience than the big Tom Sachs fanboys and art nerds. I'm one of the art fanboys and a designer/fabricator. The shoes are a part of an epic creative arc that involves NASA and JPL collab predating any Nike collab. The big driver of the hype for the people not aware of the inside baseball stuff about Tom Sachs and his studio's work has been the scarcity. The first Mars Yard shoes were only available at first, to people that came to a Tom Sachs 'demonstration' and went through the Tom Sachs' Space Program 'Space Camp.' There is a LOT of backstory if you want to get into The Studio, the sculpture, the films, the conceptual art going on, and what the weartester program for the 2.5s is about.

[@dragorocky]

Your hard work paid off Bruh. That shoe’s 20x more fuego than either of the originals.

[@brendanpearce]

I'd love to see more custom content like this! This sort of thing + your sneaker design concepts/process are a couple of things that set you apart from other sneaker channels. Obviously don't expect you to hack up all your pickups, but if you have any more custom ideas or experiments in mind would love to see more 🔥

[@meisterhunter9269]

We definitely need more customs and tearing up shoes!!

[@Neil-qg9cw]

Imo it looks better without the straps. They look and feel cheap, I've seen them on some other Jordan's.

[@reubenbaker2867]

They aren’t Jordan’s at all... theyre literally made by ultra durable materials.

Bro thank you dropping this one . I seen it done but I’ve honestly been waiting since before it dropped to see a proper viewing of the process from a credible source like yourself 🙏🏾

[@onthegokangaroo4475]

The toe box cap is good to keep for protection if u kick sum with the front of the shoe you have a protection layer to stop damage and when it get to messed up u just cut it off

[@benfell7056]

Please buy an unpicker as someone who does sewing stuff they cut threads safely, incase you ever do this again

I bought mine back in 2020 and did the same! I might even take off the magnetic straps for an even cleaner look but I'm 50/50

[@balazs7235]

Very clean, not leaving any of the white fabric left. Works wonders if you take your time!

[@TheDreadedThirteenth]

Those genuinely look absolutely banging, great job on the custom 👌 100% would rock those

[@fayyazb]

Looks WAAAAY Better NOW! Good work! This PROBABLY was one of their options while designing the Overshoes.

[@areksoo]

Really nice job! Only thing I would change is trim the inner back tab so it aligns better with the outer back tab and iron out the straps. It'll make it a little cleaner.

[@dunksbt6001]

Been looking at this custom, do a lot of customs, I’d get rid of the straps and toecap

Very nice done! Want to grab myself a pair🙈

[@UpTop.A1]

Super clean! I still think you should cut that heel tab & have it sewn to give a better look on foot but still a great custom.

[@malcolmtmelissa]

best custom i have seen of this shoe, others are leaving way too much of the blue rubber on the shoe. These look dope

[@MaleekOSolo]

This was super entertaining!!🤷🏾‍♂️ Mostly your anxious excitement as you got surgical with that blade 🔥🔥🔥💪🏾

I bought a pair of UA Mars Yard 2.0 and they feel fantastic, I cannot see how they could be more authentic. It’s enough for me.

[@danielmin3947]

These are straight up fire

[@tylersmith9894]

Ya Seth I did this to a pair of these a couple of months ago and they came out super fire. It’s cool seeing someone else bigger in KZbin do the same thing.

[@DarrylPearson]

Don't cut the back, red heel tab! They it's actually two separate straps. If you undo the stitching, you can pull it right out no prblem.

[@drparham]

Keep what you did but Make the ankle a mid/sock @the height of the tongue......(think acronym presto) stich the exposed tongue wit the white over shoe material and attach that red tie on the overshoe to the red ankle pull on the mars yard sneaker

[@RIPANDSHIPTCG]

Omg those are so clean, definitely the new Mars yard wave watch these go up now 🔥🔥

[@nw6454]

Something throws it off for me. Could be the toe cap not completed flush with the mudguards or the straps. Pretty clean tho.

[@edwardpartridge1499]

Man these make it so much better ❄️❄️

[@drexorila6778]

Nice! You can sew the excess back red tab and turn it into pull tab same with the excess tab on the tongue IMO

[@9ner4ever34]

Good morning Seth and everyone🌞... after that huge snow ❄drop yesterday I could definitely use these. Have a blessed day everyone.🤗☕

An old video of yours just popped up. Remember way back when you said you’d never wear the Mars yard overshoe? 👀

[@ewoutpeters4659]

The cutting is awesome, personally i would just leave on all the blue pannels for that DIY feel.

[@sammyriz8611]

Holy crap dude you killed these, amazing job 👏🏽

[@tymentz99]

I would cut the back pull tab and stitch the two ends together at the top for a more permanent finish.

[@troopafett5305]

They came out really good big fan of this custom. idk if i would keep that rubber sheelltoe look I’d probably cut it down but the straps and blue bottom look hella dope

[@thepickle7757]

Those came out pretty dope and I think the 3m laces make it that much better..Thanks for sharing

[@airier5795]

I actually really like those. And the cut was super clean and well done. Awesome work!!

[@myndcrym]

Damn! You did hella good on that. The laces look great with the shoe because of the zip zag on the straps. But, am I the only one who likes the overshoe look better!

[@NASHKEY750]

Seth I've been watching your videos for a long time and realized I wasn't subscribed. My bad bro just space out because I enjoy watching your videos so much. Keep killing it

[@ludwiglind3764]

that finished product is sooo clean! I absolute love it

[@jjswoosh7029]

These are very nice only thing is that back tab in by the heel needs to be cut small and stitched back together in a small loop imo

[@troelsknudsen253]

This was cool! You had your own journey with it and you got to make a few personal decisions along the way, ending up with something unique and personal. A series on how to fix up and/or customize affordable shoes to something cool would be great.

[@felixliman5477]

[@ASVP5]

I wonder if people cut the toecap. That would make these a little less bulky on the toe. I see the stitches, but it’s probably glue as well.

[@ronaldvangulden7314]

Pretty dope!Personally I would take the front strap off to expose more of the toe box.

I don't even understand who would rock a shoe that literally looks like a pair of astronaut boots. These custom ones are sooooo much better

[@christophermichael.w.7577]

I would buy the over boot and take them to a shoe repair and pay a professional to work on them. I would cut the orange strap on the back shorter then have it stitched together to make a regular pull tab.I could probably do it myself, but I would want them to come out really nice thats why I'd want to take them to a shop.

[@funky607]

Okay this transformation is wayyyyyy better than the original shoe and tbh I would have loved it more if it came out of factory like that so Hats off man I want Nike to do this hahahah

[@rafaelalexandredesousa2657]

so your cutting of the over shoe wich is supposed to protect your shoe when it rains its like cuting out the ruber from your rubber boots pointles
