Got a pair of high-end kicks that have seen better days? I specialise in bringing life back to luxury trainers, from fixing faded paint to full colour transformations.

Giving these faded LV Trainers a new life. This video shows the process of repainting the shoe to a solid purple colorway, completely transforming the look.

I was shocked at how easily the original paint came off these LV Trainers. This video shows the prep process and the surprising lack of durability of the factory finish.

About Luxury Sneaker Refurbishment

People are often shocked when they see me put acetone to a pair of Louis Vuitton trainers, but that is the reality of the process. Whether it is fixing factory peeling or simply changing a colourway you are not feeling anymore, I strip the old finish right down to the leather before applying a factory-grade top coat that is matched to the original sheen.
