This was very well doc'd. 43 years ago, my bride and I met Richard at our wedding. He was 19 and I was 28. He said we were cousins. I said that's BS because I don't have any aunts or uncles. He said he didn't either, but our grandfather's were brothers. We were both pleased to finally have a cousin. He's treated me more as a brother and friend for life. His fame and success has never detoured. You really do need to listen to Jesse Jo perform. She made her Godmother, Cher very proud to carry on a beautiful voice.
exactly - a lot of people forget that now that its become so popular but I just want people to know they've been doing this for years, and they've been doing it better than anyone else
Wow, this is insane, I looked at the view count and the sub count and I could have sworn I saw it wrong because this is such nice, quality content and I couldn't believe that it has less than 500k views, keep up the good work!
I believe Chrome Hearts is one of the world's most expensive luxury brands. Almost all goods are made in America, but eyewears in Japan. As Japanese, I'm proud of having some of Chrome Hearts glasses.
@@joaopedro-bl1qx I've bought three frames so far, which cost about 500,000 JPY in total. And as far as I remember, I've got three wallets, two leather belts, and silver accessories. I don't remember how much money I've spent on Chrome Hearts... Everything is expensive, but do you know Chrome Hearts gives custmers plastic bottole water for FREE? (maybe only in Japan? idk)
I would like to see how quality would become if they would focus in producing only in japan, also how Levis in general would increase their denim quality if they start producing only in japan. I admire japanese craftsmanship
Never forget Harlem legend Juelz Santana and other Dipset members were wearing chrome hearts in the early 2000s as well, giving them early exposure to the street scene
Years ago when I heard of Chrome Heart was at my optometrist. She had frames for sale made by Chrome Heart...still have them frames today and always get asked about them. Nice video...thanks!
You know what...I’ve always known about Chrome Hearts because Karl Lagerfeld wore them almost exclusively. But I never looked into them...they have a very cool history. I’m glad I stumbled upon this video.
How some of the counts are low is beyond me , you do incredible work bro . Background music fits each video perfectly, information given is in-depth without being scattered or drawn out, and each segment has purpose which makes it all flow cohesively. If this channel doesn’t blow up I’ll be surprised cause you’re giving great content
Bro never rush your videos, when you take time to research and put it together it’s art m. Thanks keep it up, more videos like this one and the other 2 fashion videos
@@larrylee405 55 people understood . Including the owner of the account .. take a break & go back in time lol .. dip set era wit the skull belts , chrome heart belt chains , and all dat .. was when the blacks got put on it jus sayin .. but maybe u not into fashion heavy
great brand I own 2 bracelets of theirs and a couple garments, sad that they worked with virgil, I wish they never had done that, it really burnt out the brand in a matter of a couple years. Their trucker hats and jeans are super played out, but i think their leather and silver stuff will be timeless.
Congratulations on the video project. Keep up the Great Work. I grew up with Richard in our hometown of Utica, New York Over the 50 years I have known Richard I have come to realize he truly a very kind , thoughtful and devoted father and husband. I am sure these attributes of his have played a major part in the great success he has built into Chrome Hearts.
Before I ever got into fashion or heard of chrome hearts, I always knew that I wanted that grunge/rocker/ biker style. After getting into fashion, I was so excited when I found out about chrome hearts. It was my dream style realized. I love this brand so much. My only problem with it is that it really is overpriced. Don't get me wrong; their product is great quality and they don't outsource. An expensive price is beyond understandable, but most of it is too much. And I’m talking about the leather goods and silver jewelry, not the hoodies, beanies, or stupid cross jeans. I’m just mad lol cause ive spent so much time saving up for a bike and now its gonna take even longer to get a jacket lol. Its all love tho. One of the best fashion brands out there imo
as someone who has just found your channel (& wanna give insight because you're a newer channel) i can tell ppl love your " history of _____ videos". whether they're about brands or people they're very interesting, well written, edited etc.
Insanely well put together bro. I literally can’t get enough of this brand and the amount of new shit you just educated me on is insane. More chrome hearts content in the future plz 🔥
Early /mid 200s my aunt was working in LA in the fashion district and she would get loads of bags of clothes and I guess they were new but not up to expectations so they were gifted..nothing but chrome hearts shirts, hoodies , jackets etc etc…I was like 12 years old
11:48 IVE SEEN THAT BENCH IN PERSON AT THE MANHATTAN FLAGSHIP (west village). Also this super cool LV virgil mahogany piece that was truly incredible from the 2018 LV collection virgil worked on before he was creative director. Legendary. Rest in power, king
A whole vibe this brand is, I first came up with this brand with Dipset Jim Jones Juelz Santana. The Harlem flashy Rocknroll era of Ed Hardy, Tru Religion jeans and Chrome Hearts accessories. Specifically the Chain wallet goods. Years later as an adult I’m excited to able to afford some of the ready to wear. When I think of this brand I think authentic Malibu, rock biker looks.
well done mini documentary, but fr ppl don't know how long time this shit took for them to do many things from nothing, lowkey way. but Richard is still like ghost for most of the part, but I fw it a lot. he deserve strong credits, @@
i’m over here listening deeply to the background music & i’m like this sounds like a song i know then i’m like oh shit this is bria’s interlude on piano
Wow what a great video. After watching it, I've grown to respect Chrome Hearts more now that I know the history behind the brand and its creator. Such a dope brand.
@@Threaducation of course! You've earned yourself a new subscriber btw, you deserve way more subs than you already have! The quality of your videos is amazing, keep up the good work :)
I can never fully justify their pricing and the levels that resellers go to, but I do heavily respect Chrome Hearts for pioneering fashion in different ways. It may not be my aesthetic, but without them, I'm sure there would've been many things that exist today that may have never seen the light of day! Huge fan of the channel though!
My friend in Malibu was friends with Richard and I used to get free Chrome Hearts clothes all the time. It’s crazy to have watched from the very beginning. I actually gave away all that stuff but probably should have hung onto it.
Used to love this brand. I'm not putting them down I am just always looking for the next cult favorite. While mainstream is the goal for most brands I just dip out once that happens.
This brand, their story, and its community of founders and people involved is simply beautiful. I understand the value of their products far more better now.

that’s so dope
this is a year late but i just wanna say your story is awesome and I like your dagger tattoo
The thing is chromehearts is genuine, it aint a company that tries to mimick the rock and roll style, it really is that style
exactly - a lot of people forget that now that its become so popular but I just want people to know they've been doing this for years, and they've been doing it better than anyone else
they copy their designs on levisn jeans and charge thousands for it
@@megami215 fr lmao
So when a black person doesnit it’s mimicking lol racist much ?
@@kekumoore7911 I mean it’s just a style, anyone cam wear it, but at the same time it’s part of a subculture
The fact that they do everything themselves and are all about craftsmanship is very admirable. Never knew
My Film teacher in middle school actually directed Chrome Hearts/Chopper Chicks in Zombie Town. His name was Mr.Hoskins
The movie reviews explain why Mr. Hoskins became a middle school teacher

DIPSEEEEEET
BBS SAGGIN
juelz and cam are fashion icons
They were wearing Amal Guessous, Christian Audigier and The Great China Wall.
Feel like it’s worth it to mention Sex Pistols and Guns N’ Roses were wearing it in the 80s-90s
killed it bro

Another thing to note, rappers have also made chrome hearts famous as well. Where im from (nyc) the trucker hat and the hoodies are very well known
Rapper have always styled CH like shit. Juelz was literally the only one in the early 00s who respected the brand
I agree with you, i only noticed CH through rappers❤
