Congratulations on being featured on Art Insider. You are very worthy. Also, congratulations on the 150k subs! Hope you and your daughter had great birthdays. Make sure you still take time for your family, we’ll still be here.
Thank you so much! We had a lot of fun
Very, very well said!:]
A good source for sand paper over 800 grit are auto parts stores in the body and paint section. Great to see content again!
Also for the final rub try using a women's nail buffer/file on the polish surface, in fact the rougher buffing surfaces are also extremely fine, more so than sand paper.
You shouldn't be shocked. You are a master and an artist in your line of work. You love what you do and results are no less than astonishing.
I can almost cry. Such good life advice
Dude, I can't explain it. For one I can't ever see me owning any of those shoes, I pretty much wear boots all the time. I'm a metal artist, but I love your channel. I can't seem to get enough. You are definitely a Craftsman. Merry Christmas.
I'm so glad that you were tapped for that job/role. You shone as bright as the shoes' shine. I have to remind myself to use that same sort of patience while working with people.
24:33 Subbed for the shoes, kept watching for the transformations and stayed for the attitude and the energy. The more I see the more I love what you're about.
They don't even look like the same pair! Such beautiful colour. A real work of art.
I adore the color, the sophisticated simplicity of the shoe, and the incredible tips & tricks you used to produce an absolutely beautiful shoe! Thanks for this video!
Just spent my lunch break watching this. As always I feel a sense of calm, awe, and appreciation for your work. Thanks man keep up the good work!✌️
Yes-very, very well said!:]
From my own personal experience I can tell you that a mirror shine can be learned with less than 1000 tries. The Army will teach you that. But it does take time. One thing we used to do to speed up the wax buildup process was heat the wax so it could be applied more like paint. Once on and all the leather roughness is filled in smooth it out with a bit of spit, then buff away and enjoy.
Amazing job. It’s hard to believe that they’re the same pair.
So good to finally have a restoration video. Definitely looking forward to many more soon 🙌🏾
I never get bored with the art of the cobbler! Indeed, an honorable profession! Semper Fi
Nothing short of incredible! It's a pleasure to watch your work
Those came out gorgeous... and don't need anything more than what you gave them. Nicely done Preston. GOOD video.
A wonderful video! I've never known how much goes into a restoration process! Thank you!
There's always so much to be learned when I watch your videos. This one was particularly good because of the 3000 Grit sandpaper. I love your voice has very restful and easy to attend to
What a beautiful work of art restoration!! Unbelievable job. Thanks for a great video.
As always amazing restoration and great insights shared Master Preston. Thanks
That art insider video is how I discovered your amazing channel!

Thank you for your video Mr.Soto. And happy birthday to your daughter!
Happy Belated Birthday and your daughter's 1st Birthday as well! Your videos are worth the wait! Semper Fi
I remember when I found you at 10k subscribers and learned so much about shoe care. So happy to see you grow your community.
Another fantastic restoration, you truly care about your work👍
Just rewatched this, such stunning work.
Damn I barely discovered this channel like 40 mins ago and I've watched like 2-3 vids and I felt appreciated as a 40 min viewer after all those thank you's.

I’d love to see how these age after the leather paint. Interesting.
Thank you for that instructional, valuable class. I did enjoy it very much.
You're an artist, well done!
Stunning! You are the man! Semper Fi
Incredible transformation!
Outstanding review...and welcome back to RUclips!
Thank you very much for that video, I enjoyed it immensely!
I loved this!!! You are awesome!!!
Great video, the shoes look AMAZING!
WOW-been watching your videos since 2019, my second dive, or self-reintroduction, (so to speak, as I was brought up into leather shoe interest and care) into the leather soled dress shoe world. I allready knew I was a big, big, fan of The Elegant Oxford, my favorite leather soled shoe show blog ...,but after this video if it is possible-I have become a big, big, and yet bigger fan. Congratulations on the Art Insider accolades!:]
So awesome to see a full restore including sole :D
Wow! This is awesome. I love your channel. ❤️
Beautiful work as always
the restoration is so ridiculously good
Outstanding work!
Great life advice in the final minutes. Thank you.
Thank YOU! Good personal philosophies you have. ✌
😍 magnificent! My shoes deserve some tlc from me in quarantine. Nothing like we kids applying the Kiwi paste with old sox on dad’s shoes Saturday before Sunday church and desperately buffing away lol.
hi preston, I miss your videos, amazing results on this pair of Allen edmonds, take care and be well.
Preston, you are a magician !!!!!! Oh my god what a JOB !!!!
You know what, I'm one of your French fans, and every time I see your work, I think it's too bad you cant take care of my shoes !!!!!
Congratulation, the result is just amazing, as always !!!!!!
Great job on the final out come. Good advice Preston. Be safe.
Thank you!
Such incredible life advice! You're an inspiration!
AWESOME JOB, Congratulations 👏
As always beautiful work...
Big shout out from Houston Texas.
Amazing work !!
I love that color! These shoes were saved to be worn again!
You are a true artist
Words motivated in such a great way. Who would think shoes can be used as a motivational story 😀
This man is like an Oxford necromancer. I'm always amazed at how great his revival of these pieces turns out. Great job and more restoration videos!
Wow..
That’s an art!
Good for you Preston. I've followed your channel from the beginning and taken your advice. I've Oxford-Pilled a few friends too haha!
Love this!! 👏🏻🤩🥳
You deserve it my friend, congrats!
Man, you really are able to make miracles. Congratulations.
Wow awesome!

Masterful yet humble
Excellent!!
Congratulations, man!
You are a genuine soul..
Wow great job!
Always great work! Every time I shine my shoes it looks like there are micro scratches when I shine the toe...
I love the clickety clack of that sewing machine
*Beautiful!*
Felicitări au ieșit superb
Bravoo
Job well done, beautiful!!!!!
very meaningful message behind shoe restoration
Unbelievable transformation
You're the best Preston wish I must say that that is my grandson's name keep on doing what you doing you have taught me alot I am perfecting the art of patina which I learned from you
I thrifted a pair of those same Carlyle’s Same exact color and it took me two years to get them looking pristine and because I wanted to keep the color original and believe me I was very tempted to die them burgundy or chestnut it was especially difficult.
One word, "Stunning!." Semper Fi
Wow, very nice!!!
"they don't to be perfect, just very good". C'mon, man, you're fooling nobody, they look absolutely perfect hahahah
Well done!
Damn! Puts my (I thought my shoes were shiny) process to shame! Outstanding job! I will be following some of your processes... but I do have young children!!
That Amethyst Purple is gorgeous
I love this i am working in my bag spa i also restore bags and shoes its really hard when you have alot of costomer but when i see your videos its really motivation for me
thats a good problem to have ! having a lot of customers !
Impressive 👏👏👏
He made it righteous again! 🙌
Perfect work
Thank you!!! Thank you for your words!
Really enjoyed this transformation‼️ I prefer your patina over the acrylic mix, but I still think these were resurrected. Would love to get a project where we could collaborate with Issac too...
great job bro
I LOVE YOU MAN!!!
LOL TIL that most of my AE shoes are "pretty old"; "five to six years old". Nice video - great transformation! I like that you can 'save' those shoes.
