Those boots look amazing. I have about a 1in discrepancy between my left and right legs after a motorcycle accident. I do not want to wear one boot with an extra thick sole, but that means being able to fit in an orthotic. I have tried wearing regular boots but the bridge across the top of the foot is really tight. I even tried getting leather softener and some shoe trees to try and stretch it out, but it's still super tight. Do you have any recommendations for either high quality boots that would accommodate tall orthotics or any suggestions for getting regular boots to work?
nice touch with the reinforcement for the gemming! did you rewelt just for this? or also a cleaner look on the sole stitching? and do you use a softer leather for the filler than the shank or why is it two different pieces?
I’d love to see you guys take a pair of Thursday presidents, and upgrade all of the materials in the insole to real leather, ditch the cork for veg tanned leather, and add gussets in the tongue, with dainite outsoles. Pretty much upgrade the parts of the boot that they went cheap on with leather. I have a pair of those shoes, love them, and want to do all of that work to upgrade them when a resold is due.
We are going to eventually make a sister brand to Rose Anvil so that we can sell that stuff without social media companies tanking our accounts. It’s a joke
@@channelchannelchannelchannelthis is ridiculous. I'm about as anti-gun as you can get, but to then see a business in a country where they make such a fuss about being all about free business and enterprise, and with such abhuge demographic of lawful gun owners, that an artisan shop can't feel free to cater and advertise ostensibly quality goods to a potential customer base for fear of repercussions is so silly. Not like they're selling the guns themselves, and to just anybody. If I don't want a gun in my life, it sure as hell won't be a leather strap what pushes me over the edge. So sad to see these guys working hard to then have to jump around such things - all as a joke, obvs 😏😒
I found this interesting to watch , it is an art ! ❤️ We had a shoe repair shop in our neighborhood for over 50 years ! It closed and is greatly missed in our community ! I truly would be a golden opportunity for someone who wants to get into that field ! Much like a Tailor shop we all appreciate that has been in our community for so long !
This channel is insanely good! Just stumbled over it, didn't even know about it, even though I'm an avid watcher of the other channels. Really hope to see more on here!
Those do look slick. I dig em. And i definitely would not want to lace up an entire 8" boot at 5am before getting out of the truck for work, so definitely love the speed hooks for even a 6" boot
Videos like this inspired me to do my own diy cobbling. So far its easily been the most productive thing I've ever done in my underwear on the couch while watching tv 😂
Ive been bookbinding for about a year and a half and its so cool to see some similarities between books and boots, you guys even used a bone folder here :D
I did some bookbinding back in college when I worked in the library conservation and preservation lab. I LOVED using the bone folder. But also binding a book from scratch is just so satisfying. I’d love to get back into it one day.
You lost me when you added the pockets, but the mschined brass speed hooks are definitely an upgrade. I really don't understand why they're not made with them.
Because when you tighten speed hooks they pull the leather and make it bend sideways when it is supposed to pull straight in. I have these and a pair of iron rangers with speed hooks. They aren't near as durable and give less control of the tension around the boots. That's why they haven't gone to them from the factory.
probably because the legacy part is that its the same boot from 1952. the new 10877 work boot version has some slight changes, mainly just different color eyelets, so they might eventually go to a speed hook but the legacy boot hopefully will never change.
these look SO good 👍🏾 I just picked up a pair of Rockrooster boots after the Moctober review a while ago. I was almost on my way to return them unfortunately because of my wide feet and how snug they felt. I wanted them to work so bad though! I googled "cobbler near me" and they were able to stretch them for me AND I asked for recommendations for an insole and BOOM they had a leather one on deck! With that being said, can we see you guys do THAT boot??! I was actually just searching for lace alternatives and now you guys just blew my mind. Thanks from the past and in advance 😂
I really like the cobbling videos. I think it might be neat if you made an "Appocalypse Resole" video, and resole a boot with a piece of tire rubber like you guys described as possible for the ND3. Lots of YT cobblers putting Dr. Soles on boots, I'd love to see a boot resoled with a truck tire or a dairy stall mat or something.
This was an outstanding modification, I wish redwing would just offer this type of stuff on their site and in stores, some sole options on the heritage stuff would be cool, built to order would be a great option
@@RoseAnvilBuilds any thoughts about start offering this service as a "surprise box" where we ship you something and you make it better using just your creativity?
I got a pair of 875's and tried my best, I just can't live with how narrow they are. Now I have a $375 pair of boots I'll probably never wear again. I even tried a boot stretcher to widen them which helped but they're still just too narrow.
I love that you link the tools, but you should at least tell where or how you get the materials too. I have no idea where you get those extra thick mud soles or leather filler material
For the leather midsoles and filler material, I usually go to local leather supply stores. I have found that unless you order in bulk, buying leather online is generally more expensive. The Dr. Soles outsole they use in the videos are very cool, but they are sourced from Taiwan, and from what I have seen they only do like DHL premium shipping, so a set of $15 outsoles has a $40 shipping fee. So maybe hitting up a local cobbler to buy from their supply is a good idea. That’s how I was able to track down some vintage biltrite outsoles for a pair of redwing pecos I resoled.
So I’m a converted suspenders wearer.. 39yo… and won’t look back to belts/waist tourniquets… your camera harnesses look like they’d be amazing as suspenders.. could I use it as such or are there plans to make those into suspenders as well? Love your vids!
I’d like to use one of those neck straps as a belt. I think I could make a simple hook fixture, could look pretty cool. Especially the raw vegetable tanned one, as it ages.
That was an beautiful rebuild, I love seeing boots recrafted. How about a worn red wing 875 recrafted with a black cristy sole, leather midsole and colored stitching?
In the real trades they are used to stop hot steel or sparks from getting in and burning the tongue or your foot . On this pair obviously for “fashion” .
some think its more rugged. but actually the filler plays no role in the integrity of the construction. plus a cork filler normally is more comfortable and insulating
I just had this amazing idea. You know how Ford, GM and Dodge sell trucks that are not finished to companies which turn them into school buses, etc.? You should just buy unfinished uppers and finish them yourself. I will buy the first pair from you. There must be a market for that. Great videos on your channels.
I’d really love to get a couple of those boot pocket kits, but I need to know which color would best match copper rough and tough leather? If any of the options would match at all.
I don't understand why the leather replaced the cork on the midsole(?) and why the eyelets were removed, and then replaced with essentially the same thing. What was improved?
I have two questions. Maybe I missed the explanation, and I’m sorry if I did. Why not cork? I thought cork was for comfort and provided enough space for the leather to form to your toes. My second question, again I’m sorry if I missed this, was there a steel shank in that to begin with or did you add one? I didn’t think they put them in for wedge soles. Thanks for the video!
Looks awesome! It would be neat to see some budget logger boots (Silverado, Carolina, Georgia, Red Wing, and maybe the Gravel Gear one from Northern Tool) get rebuild with leather insoles, midsoles, leather welts, and decent outsoles (not necessarily Vibram branded). I’d like to see if any of those is realistic to buy as an entry level GYW boot, use for work, then pay to upgrade them into the next level of GYW boots. If it would cost $250 to do that, then it wouldn’t make sense even with 3 additional resoles possible from it. If it can be done for about the cost of the boot, then it could be feasible. Just a thought. Thanks for the great content 👍
Beautiful work!!! Rose Anvil has inspired me to upgrade my existing boots. Currently I'm working on making a 2003 pair of Dr Martens usable again (the lasting boards are worn out and the soles are slick) but to make it as easy as possible, I'm dropping in everything through the top without cleaving the soles. My grand idea is to make insoles from full grain leather with carbon fiber (to add support and simulate a shank) insoles on bottom with cork sandwiched in between. For right now, I dropped in KO Zoom Air insoles from Ali Express which match any Zoom Air shoes I've had.
awesome rebuild! I was wondering how you line up height the forefoot with the heel. How come they’re always the same even though the whole sole is replaced?
The aesthetic of the EDC pockets would be enhanced by a double row of stiching I think - especially on the inside pocket. And what about an embossing to boot ( no pun intended ... ) 😁
Put your questions here about this boot/process/material choices and I’ll answer them in the unboxing vid on Rose Anvil 2 channel!
One good question I saw was, “why leather filler instead of cork?”
Those boots look amazing. I have about a 1in discrepancy between my left and right legs after a motorcycle accident. I do not want to wear one boot with an extra thick sole, but that means being able to fit in an orthotic. I have tried wearing regular boots but the bridge across the top of the foot is really tight. I even tried getting leather softener and some shoe trees to try and stretch it out, but it's still super tight. Do you have any recommendations for either high quality boots that would accommodate tall orthotics or any suggestions for getting regular boots to work?
I was curious about the type of leather used as the filler, if it was full grain and roughed or what.
nice touch with the reinforcement for the gemming! did you rewelt just for this? or also a cleaner look on the sole stitching? and do you use a softer leather for the filler than the shank or why is it two different pieces?

Would look great on a 30-30
The sole and pockets make it unique esthetically beautiful and comfortable at the same time.
Thanks for the ASMR and not playing some annoying music. Very relaxing and satisfying.
I like this style of video. No talking, and just some captions.
I love the way these look. I wish more moc toe boots looked like these and had all the functionality of them as well

This is a great guide as someone looking to resole their own boots, thank you!
Those boots were bad ass to begin with. You guys made them legendary by the end. Best pair out there!!
Damn. DAMN. Those are so disgustingly sick with the new half sole. Green...like I am, with envy. I think I'll grab one of those knife pocket kits.
This channel is insanely good! Just stumbled over it, didn't even know about it, even though I'm an avid watcher of the other channels. Really hope to see more on here!

For SURE! speed hooks are an absolute necessity on any height boot. I choose my boots over my regular running shoes because they have speed hooks.
Wow. Incredible. Lots of fine motor skills at work there. Looks sooo much better. What a great job. Thanks for the video!
Soon as I saw the green sole I knew it was gonna be perfect.

Love the idea of pocket kits, brilliant.

Because they are made for working on steel not for fashion.
That's some really nice boots!! 💪😎
Man I love the look of those!
Hey that neck strap seems like it would work well for guitars too. Seems to be quite a versatile accessory!
You read my mind
Boots and Guitars 👍
The neck strap is intriguing. I thinking of other uses for it too.

Absolutely beautiful

Gorgeous changes.

These came out awesome
Nice work! How do these boots feel differently with the heel, shank and new midsole compared to the wedge sole? Thanks
8:44, is the builder from Peru, Indiana?
Why did you cut the welt off just to put another one on?
I got a pair of 875's and tried my best, I just can't live with how narrow they are. Now I have a $375 pair of boots I'll probably never wear again. I even tried a boot stretcher to widen them which helped but they're still just too narrow.
Yeah, the 23 last is narrow and tall. Not sure whose foot it was designed to fit?
beautiful work
Those are epic. Should open shop, I’d pay for that work.
Beautyfull craftmanship 💪
Immensely satisfying to watch, thank you! 🙌🏼
I dig it! The sole looks sleek and not bulky! Great job!
Is there a way to order these, these are absolutely beautiful
Love the build. Personally would have gone with a different outsole, but overall awesome boots. The boots look much better without the wedge.
That olive dr sole half sole is dope
Great video team, fantastic to watch and a wonderful outcome. Well done.
Good job!
I love that you link the tools, but you should at least tell where or how you get the materials too. I have no idea where you get those extra thick mud soles or leather filler material

How do those boots feel up on the steel?
The camera strap is beautiful looking. You should make a bracelet like that if possible.
I was curious why you changed the eyelets?
I wish they were available like that in the store
Nice parkway drive shirt I just seen them in concert at apocalypse fest !
WOW 😯 that was long badass hair.
Do you do builds like this for the general public? I’m very interested in this.
how can I get a pair of those boots? there awesome
What is the purpose for the extra leather underneath the laces?
In the real trades they are used to stop hot steel or sparks from getting in and burning the tongue or your foot . On this pair obviously for “fashion” .
Excellent. What is the benefit of the veg tan shank and filler pieces vs. more commonly seen materials such as steel and cork?
What type of sewing is it ? Stitch down ?
You guys taking orders? Ive got a brand new pair of 877s in my basement that I’d love to be modded like this!
How much will cost me to have boots be resoled just like that but without the side pockets?
I love the upgrade. So much better. What's with the wedge soles in general? I don't get it. Anyway, much better. Just not sure about the green...
If Nicks ever made a GYW boot, it would be this lol. The speed hooks is a must on that boot. Keep making these vids!!!!
Not only speed hooks, but proper machined brass speed hooks and not those crappy bent ones that I refuse to ever live with again.
Awesome build! Truman Boot build? I think that'd be awesome
sewing the outsole together might be a good idea, but the stitch is now exposed, wouldn't that be a problem? Water Resistency or wear on the stitches?
I would love to change out the wedge sole on my RedWings for a midsole/outsole similar to that. Nice work!
The knife pocket is nice
Dr Sole! I like that
How about a rifle sling, made out of the leather links?
These are awesome, so cool! What was the thought process behind using leather filler instead of cork?
some think its more rugged. but actually the filler plays no role in the integrity of the construction. plus a cork filler normally is more comfortable and insulating
@@klausbecker4745i disagree, I’ll cover this topic in the unboxing!
That was a cool video. I will say though that those look strange with a heel on them. I'm so used to seeing the wedge.
Awesome, love this ❤

You should just buy unfinished uppers and finish them yourself. I will buy the first pair from you. There must be a market for that. Great videos on your channels.
How come you didnt wet the bottom before stitching the boot ?
Can y’all make watch straps?
I’d really love to get a couple of those boot pocket kits, but I need to know which color would best match copper rough and tough leather? If any of the options would match at all.
Probably medium brown

How much would it cost to mack those changes? Anyone know?
awesome rebuild! I was wondering how you line up height the forefoot with the heel. How come they’re always the same even though the whole sole is replaced?
They do look a lot better, I much prefer a leather stack sole, never been a big fan of a huge wedge sole
Great work as always, I'd have gone with different soles though - not a fan of the green!

I’m an amputee so good footwear is an ongoing issue for me, man I’d pay a premium for a pair of your boots.
