Is that linen strip over the metal shank for anti-squeak? Was wondering why it was just over a small section. Your camera angles are improving, and love how you and customer kept the vintage uppers. Great masterwork as always. Always watching every upload!
Well done! First video I've watched from you and I've noticed you seem to do more things by hand. Do you not have the equipment or it is more or what you're used to doing? I ask because I'm (more than likely) going to be entering into this trade. Thanks!
Good job, although I was hoping you were going to restore the uppers as well. Is that corrected grain or something like that that won't take sanding well?
They could have easily done it. Some people, including myself like the worn-in look. Not everybody wants a new shiny boot. Hence why they didn't "restore" the uppers.
Let us know what you think about the video!
Get rid of the music
Do you think a job like this was worth it on a pair of shoes that were that tattered?
Great video , very talented and love the music fits perfect
Great job, you are highly skilled. Interesting how you attached the welt around the heel. Obviously the owner does not care what the uppers look like.
Very nice. Those corded soles are growing on me.
Great Job, Loved the video!

Do you not have a finishing machine?

The markings you made on the welt, gemming and insole. What is the purpose of this?
It's a simple way to make sure we put everything back together the same and to not affect the size of the shoe.
Is the industrial sanding machine a necessity for cleaning up the heel and sole edges? Or is there another way that amateurs can do it? Just curious
You can sand by hand. Takes a while but it’s possible.
Thank you for doing a full sole and not a half. Half soles look terrible.
