Just like everyone else said, she might not have been able to "buy new ones". If you have the money to repair what you already own, why not repair them? That's the problem with items today, we just buy new ones instead of repairing and maintaining what we already own. Clothing used to be something that people would own their entire lives and continuously maintain and patch and rework. Shoes would get taken to a cobbler and resoled not just tossed out and new ones bought. Luxury items are meant to last a lifetime that's one of the reasons they're so costly. You can take them and have them repaired so you'll never have to buy another bag/pair of shoes/etc again.

@maariyamada 3 года назад

Great craftmanship and artistry. Props to the this cobbler shop. After reading some of the other comments: 1. Cost of shoes is $800+, not the cost of the repair. So the assumption is that the cost of repair is much less than new shoes. (Given the time and effort, it probably wasn't cheap to fix them, though.) 2. Louboutin has a limited run on styles, so this may not be replaceable. Even the still-popular So Kate will eventually be discontinued. 3. Although they didn't show it, blending the new leather piece to the existing upper and making it seamless/invisible is possible with light sanding, color touch-up, clear coating, and then buffing. 4. Shoe owner really needs to put her expensive footwear away securely and get her dog a chew toy. It's like 1 AM where I am and found this video suggested. Fun to watch, regardless.

@notconvincedgranny6573 3 года назад

The cost/value of a pair of Louboutins is ridiculous. They are cheaply made and uncomfortable, but some people will pay out the wazoo for status. The repair will have more pure workmanship involved than the original creation. Just ridiculous.

@lilacpen8678 3 года назад

What models did you wear? I'm not the biggest fan of Louboutins' general style, but my grandmother sometimes sends me "used" (by her standards, lol) clothing, and gave me a pair of these. They were incredibly comfortable in my experience.

@seekingeudaimonia6884 3 года назад

High heel comfort is all about form, if you get a pair of high heels and your arch is to high, you aren’t going to be comfortable. It’s really up to a persons body whether a shoe is comfortable or not. That’s why some people find cheaper shoes comfortable because they have a flat foot. I have never found a pair of heels that fit my foot, so I don’t even try anymore, it hurts too much.

If you can afford $800 shoes im sure you can just throw those away and get a new pair

@aminadrizielkhaldi2902 3 года назад

Not everything is about money, maybe they hold an emotional value or something that she associates it with the shoes

@zain-hu6kx 3 года назад

or, it couldve been a wedding gift, a birthday gift, she couldve bought it to treat herself after a long month or year. its never disclosed

Or maybe someone saved money to have a pair of very expensive shoes for special occasions . Like me, I’m not rich by no means and I own a 1k +Tag Heur that I saved money so I can afford it , but I know that if a take care of it , it would last me a long time.

@stephaniehatem 3 года назад

I just bought a pair of $800 Louboutins, I couldn't afford to throw them away and get a new pair. I saved for four months to be able to buy them. It may be similar for the owner. While the repairs aren't cheap, they're definitely cheaper than $800. Plus, some people are like me and hate fast fashion, so when we spend a lot of money on something, we want to be able to repair it and continue it's lifespan, rather than continuing to throw things in the trash.

Just because someone afford this doesn’t mean they don’t care about money, the environment. They may even want to be better than our current throw away society. quality things are made to be repaired.

Few things I noticed... Shoe owner didn’t bother to wipe her dirty foot crust out of the shoes but these guys were nice enough to do that for her. And... Henry got some long nails.

@AnaTaff 3 года назад

I used to store my shoes in their boxes and inside my closet, I didn't air them enough I guess because now they are all peeling off. I wore a pair of boots that peeled on my way, I felt like Grethel leaving breadcrumbs behind me. I felt bad throwing them out, I wish there were restorers here too!

@Tata-iu3fy 3 года назад

@thereisds 3 года назад

probably bc the reveal shots are of a whole-ass different pair, watch closely, in the process the repaired shoe has seams on both sides, in the reveal both shoes look more round and no seams on the allegedly repaired one, f a k e
