I’m Back!
Here’s a full start to finish ASMR version of a commission for Foxtrot Uniform — Reconstructing an original pair of ’85 Metallic Blues and reconstructing them into the ultra rare Metallic Purple color-way.
Cleaning and conditioning the leather while maintaining the 37 year “patina”. I replaced old liners, foam, collars, swooshes and tongue. I was unable to reuse the original tongues and collar liners because of wear, as originally planned. These are refitted with the 2021 Jordan Court Purple outsoles that have been dyed in coffee, as well as the original thread, which has been waxed as well.
Purchase the scans of the deconstructed shoe here! (you can also find my patterns on my website as well)
