If you had really cool pair of old bowling shoes to be converted to street shoes, that would be cool. 😀 That's a totally random suggestion not-at-all based on the fact that you currently have my old bowling shoes in your shop.
As someone who takes a lot of pride in their own craft (electrician) it is so interesting to see how you guys take care of the boots that let me do my job properly. I've gone and watched every upload of the past two years, can't get enough of seeing the quality work. Whenever my boots need a resole, I know who I'm sending them to.
Superb work guys - seeing Heath hand-stitching the boot shows just how much physical work goes into each repair.... And how you guys show such attention to detail in your work. Inspiring to see.
My Grampa had a shoe repair shop in his basement. When I was in town, I would go down and watch him do his stuff. I was mesmerized every single time. A wonderful memory for me each and every time I watch your videos.
@@jerichofalls8236 Too funny! I lost mine in the wee hours with my college buddies on a bet at our favorite all-night truck stop. I won $100 from the pot (like $500 today), and then it never fully grew back. I married two years later, and what remained was in clumps on my pillow each morning until there wasn’t any more.🥴🤣😁
Wow! Have never seen a logger heel rebuilt--all those layers of leather! And to see the sole even just partially hand stitched, now that is amazing work. Great job! And really looking forward to any updates, and possibly a future video, on Heath's dress shoe build. Happy weekend to all! Mahalo! 🤙
Here I sit, relaxing on the back porch in South Texas, 61 degrees, drinking coffee, watching another excellent boot rebuild videos by two pros, listening to blue jays squawking, and reflecting on being thankful with Thanksgiving around the corner. If I start complaining, slap me silly. In spite of adversity, life is good and I am blessed.
Sunday 14th November 2021 When I first saw the boots I said to myself “ Geez , who ever owns these boots should just have thrown them in the garage because not even these two guys will be able to do much for them ! “ In the end of the video I was highly impressed again ! You guys perform the unimaginable ! The boots look really fabulous ! Every-time I think NAH ... these shoes or boots are beyond repair , you guys always soar high as smooth as eagles and prove me wrong ! I love 💕 this channel because you guys are masters of your art and I’m always excited to see what the end results will be ! Thank you for sharing your expertise with us viewers ! ❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍♥️♥️♥️🥰🥰🥰😊😊😊
Just now seeing this older restoration video. Beautiful work! I LOVE that sculpted, Cuban style stacked heel. Thus boot is now as beautiful as it is functional. Appreciate what you share gents!
Another quality job. These boots are far better put together now than they were from the factory. The uppers looked to be pretty good leather so well worth doing this on.
I’m in no way a shoe repair person. I don’t wear boots or shoes that would ever be repaired. However I love watching your videos. That says something about your content. Nice job guys ! Keep up the great work.
Very excited to see the pictures of the hand welted dress shoes. Would y’all be able to do a future video on making shoes? As someone who really wants to get into this trade, that would be a killer video to use as a reference.
Dallin, check out Japanese shoemaker, Ken Hishinuma. He's a young bespoke shoemaker and has 2 channels called MORIZIN and CRAZY about SHOES. He does shoemaking videos from start to finish. They are in Japanese but they come out with English subtitles after a couple days. MORIZIN is more of a lifestyle channel, so he focuses shoemaking on CRAZY about SHOES. Both channels have great resources tho! Good luck on your journey.😁
Thank you. I know nothing about shoe repair ,so is this cost effective or emotional attachment to the boots? I have boots i love so i can see where i would want to save them.
I just discovered you guys last Monday! Why didn't I see you guys sooner until now? I'm addicted to your incredible shows now! I never knew how shoes were made. You guys just opened up a new world of how quality shoes are made versus cheap shoes!
Wow is right...what a difference..amazing work was done on these well worked boots..with new sole and upgraded membrane they will be to work for a long time...great info as well..thanks dudes!..
Great video as always especially that sneak peek at the 'side project'. Can't wait to see if you guys decide do a start to finish video series on your own custom line of shoes...!?!
Hello, nice to meet you! I am Japanese. I will buy boots for the first time in my life. The first shoes I bought were carolina boots! In Japan, boots called Red Wing are mainstream, but I recommend Carolina.
Hey guys, as beeing not really versed in the whole boot thing i thought i might as yall what kind of brand for logger or utility leather boots for women are recommendable? I also want to mention i have scoliosis, so i appreciate a boot with some sort of shock absorbance/pressure relievance for my lower back! Thanks in advance guys
as shoemakers/cobblers what are your thoughts on the traditional pine tar and oil mixtures that northern Europeans use to condition their boots. are modern conditioners better?
I have this exact pair of boots. I actually picked them out myself from a catalog as a gift from my mother in law 20 years ago. They lasted forever, but I found out within about a month that my feet were not designed to wear loggers. My toes were numb for the three years that I wore them. I guess from the higher heel? I still have them, thinking about having a more traditional sole put on. They're still good boots. I hate to waste them!
You guys do a great job. I'm struggling to find boots at all little on good ones I need something 17 4e wide and water proof or resistant. Wishing you guys made boots .
I would have no idea. However I expect some if not all Carolina products are China made as are many of the flagship boots from my younger years Red Wing. Around 1978-9 I spent a day or so in Red Wing MN. At that time most or all their boots were made right there. I wonder what is left of the town now days.
Thanks you for doing the Carolina brand.I don't exactly like the construction of plastic and rubber but they are durable at a reasonable price. I where the linesman boots and love them. Good beginning boot.
I really liked the look of the natural stacked leather heel. It gives the boot imo a more rugged look. How were you able to flatten out the kilties on these boots ? I removed the ones I had on a pair of Red Wing boots because I didn't like the way they eventually curled up. BTW I'm always amazed at how well the Saphir conditioner works to restore dry tired old leather. Makes me think I should try their conditioner on my face. :-D Have a great weekend guys. : )
Man, that looks better than a new boot.. wonderful job there, if i owned those boots i wouldn't wear it for a week and just keep looking at them and appreciate the work before i wear them.
I enjoy watching your videos. I got myself a used pair of Wesco Highline boots that actually fit me, I have small feet for my height. From your videos I know exactly what I want from my local cobbler and I think I can express what I want done from your videos. I know you are busy and would take a while to get to my boots if i sent them into you. I want to talk to the local guy and explain what I want. He did a pair of combat boots for me so I know he does decent work and the new soles make them feel a lot better for all day working. Thanks for your awesome videos.
I've always heard that Carolina boots are pretty well constructed. I knew they had to be using a number of economical materials the achieve the price point they sell for, so I'm not surprised here but it's good to see that they are pretty well constructed.
Glad I found this channel! Amazing work! Let me know when you take orders again. I have a pair of White's Logger Boots that I've had for around 10 years while working on the Railroad. I'd like to do a makeover. I know them boots are built like a tank! Keep up the good work!
So being your first time working on Carolina loggers. What’s your overall thought of the way they’re built and quality. I have several pairs and love them.
I have georgia goretex loggers..they are great boots, ive had them for about 14 years and had them rebuilt a few years ago...they didn't do as good a job as you all, though. Theybare currently at another shop being stretched, probably gonna pick them up today. Hopefully.
I think you mention it sometime, but it would be nice to a list of conditioners and polishes you guys use on the boots, for us that are not familiar with safires renovators it’s hard to tell what’s being used specifically because safires has so many different products
I need to send my boots on in these guys I got these things warm for a month on the souls already falling off but they're really nice boots like how they wear
Thanks y’all for watching! What videos would you like to see next? Leave us some ideas down below.
Great work as always guys! They look fantastic! Much better than before!

Have you ever resoled a doc marten. Would be a fun video.
More thrift store resoles or cheap shoes getting upgraded as well are fuck to watch. Maybe from like an online store like Amazon or wish etc.
If you had really cool pair of old bowling shoes to be converted to street shoes, that would be cool. 😀 That's a totally random suggestion not-at-all based on the fact that you currently have my old bowling shoes in your shop.
What about the Nick's collaboration boot? 💚

I was bald at 23. The best solution for male pattern baldness is to be secure in yourself, and embrace reality!
Same man. Same. Nothing more embarrassing than a man trying to hide the fact that he’s bald
21 for me. Shaved it for the academy, and it never came back right. Uncle went bald at 24

I am more than impressed with Trent and Heath’s manner and style, Superlative quality and craftsmanship that is rarely seen today….. outstanding work!

These shoe restorations are my new fascination. Thanks fellas for sharing your experience and satisfying my eternal curiosity

12:28 with the Billy Ocean slapping…
Stellar works as always.
Love ur vids but plz show the brand of products ur using.
Those where drier than Tutankhamen!!!
Shows how resilient good leather is when moisturised. Good work as always chaps.
Thanks, Luke
Excellent craftsmanship on your part. I can tell that this job is super hard on your hands! Take care of your ✋️!
Great to see other smaller brands on the channel, it give a lot of great insight. Great video as always, guys!
Smaller brand name - but owned by Berkshire Hathaway.
Thank you!
I’m in no way a shoe repair person. I don’t wear boots or shoes that would ever be repaired. However I love watching your videos. That says something about your content. Nice job guys ! Keep up the great work.
Another fantastic restoration those boots now have another 20 years or more of life..

@@It_swill Ken is truly a master craftsman. I need to order a pair of his bespoke shoes. I believe he even does good year shoes for infants haha
@@It_swill • Ken's channel isn't free. This is.
I am finding these repairs relaxing. Subscribed.
Thank you. I know nothing about shoe repair ,so is this cost effective or emotional attachment to the boots? I have boots i love so i can see where i would want to save them.
Incredible watching you guys. Such skill and craftsmanship is a joy.
Who would have thought shoe repair was interesting. You guys make it so and provide high quality craftsmanship!
Thank you very much, Mike!

You guys did an amazing job. Those boots came out so good 🤌🏻
Heath, you never cease to amaze! That hand stitching was impressive. Way cool!
❤️❤️ I do not think cork in work boots would last as long as a different type of cushion. It’s refreshing seeing the uppers come back to life!
What would cost of something like this be?
When using this hair product be sure to give your scalp a really good massage, it opens up those hair follicles. I use to be a hairdresser.
Just discovered this channel , outstanding work guys !
What paper towels do you use to dry boots? Those look real durable.
Logging is super hard on boots.. especially the boots I wear and other people I work with. A comfortable boot is a must...
You guys!!!! Proving once again that quality always wins.
Hello from Melbourne, Australia....Damn, that southern accent ...it's a joy to listen to.
Well done chaps, incredible job. Those boots look awesome. All the best from the UK.
Beautiful work guys ! The end result! I love this channel !
Fantastic job on the boots! They look great.
Love the finish. Master craftsmen.
I'd love to see any specialty boots ( like firemen' boots or something along those lines) Keep up the fantastic work :)
Fantastic work! I really enjoy to watch real craftsmanship. It's something genuine with leather, natural rubber and hand-sewn. Cool...
Great job as always. I always enjoy watching your videos - thank you.
I just ordered a pair of those Carolina logger boots. I’m glad you guys said they are ok.
The Bros kicked butt on this build. Its how I would like all my boots built. You’re real pros!
Wow is right...what a difference..amazing work was done on these well worked boots..with new sole and upgraded membrane they will be to work for a long time...great info as well..thanks dudes!..
Spent some summers in college and law school working at Carolina Shoe in Morganton NC. Way back when the boots were actually made there.
Cool!
Where are the boots made now?
Would you recommend soaking leather laces in boot oil to hydrate them?
You guys are the coolest cobblers I ever encountered. Even the cobblers are cool guys in the USA.
Gorgeous work!!!
I enjoy seeing construction of different manufacturers. I gives me more buying confidence when I go for a pair of boots. These turned out awesome.
Thanks you
Holy shit, you’re FINALLY doing Carolinas! I commented in previous videos that you guys sleep on this company. But I’m proud to see it
Great video as always especially that sneak peek at the 'side project'. Can't wait to see if you guys decide do a start to finish video series on your own custom line of shoes...!?!
Thank you. We’re thinking about it. 😉
Those logger heels looked amazing. Nice job.
That was great work on those boots.
I love hearing the sounds in the shop!
this just amazes me how beautiful and precise I see how you guys work
Hello, nice to meet you! I am Japanese. I will buy boots for the first time in my life. The first shoes I bought were carolina boots! In Japan, boots called Red Wing are mainstream, but I recommend Carolina.

Amazing workmanship. I hope the worker who wears those boots takes good care of them.

Awesome video. Any suggestions for a durable and waterproof boot for underground utility work?
You guys do a great job. I'm struggling to find boots at all little on good ones I need something 17 4e wide and water proof or resistant. Wishing you guys made boots .
My experience with Carolina boots is that they are rough and tough and take awhile to get comfortable. But worth the wait!😋
Were they made in China? .... my CA8821's sole delaminated in less than a year. .. Mine were definitely cheaper made than this video.
I would have no idea. However I expect some if not all Carolina products are China made as are many of the flagship boots from my younger years Red Wing. Around 1978-9 I spent a day or so in Red Wing MN. At that time most or all their boots were made right there. I wonder what is left of the town now days.
You guys do beautiful work, you are both artist at your trade.
Those boots look a thousand times better! I can't wait to see the shoes Heath is making, that holdfast looks great!
Just eye satisfaction man, your guys videos got me into learning a lot more about boots and shoes.
Great job guys!!! Always love seeing the inside of various brands and their construction approaches and techniques!!! Thanks!!
I had a pair of these I absolutely ran into the ground about 5 years ago. Really liked them.
Man I wish I could grow my mullet back.
Great insight on the boots.
Thanks yall.
1st class job gents! When my Whites moc toes finally need a resole I hope to be able to sneak them into you.
We’re here for you!
Just saw your video boots came out awesome hopefully 1 day I can send my boots n get the Trenton n heath special
OOOOH!!! Please make a video of you creating those dress shoes!!!
Those boots took a lot of layers. I love the laces. Thank you for sharing your work.
Thank you
Beautiful craftsmanship and excellent videos 😎👍👍
Thanks you for doing the Carolina brand.I don't exactly like the construction of plastic and rubber but they are durable at a reasonable price. I where the linesman boots and love them. Good beginning boot.
I'm a machinist by trade and dabble in woodworking. But for some reason I love leather work. Of all kinds really. But this is fascinating work.

Where can I get jerk needles like you use for welt stitching? Excellent work on the Carolinas!!!
Fantastic work as usual guys ! Great stuff
Another great video! I would love to see you guys make a pair of shoes by hand if you ever get a chance!
Thank you. We’re considering it.
Is there a functional reason for scalloping the sides of the heel on logger style boot?
My understanding is they'll pull out of mud more easily.
Man, that looks better than a new boot.. wonderful job there, if i owned those boots i wouldn't wear it for a week and just keep looking at them and appreciate the work before i wear them.
Man. This was a nice one. I appreciate you walking through where synthetics are a good choice. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work!
Thank you, Andrew!
Really enjoyed watching him skin the boot

I love Carolina I'm a tree climber and these are the best bang for the buck hands down
It's the "Scrub-a-dub-dub, I got my boots in the tub!" for me! Don't know why it made me smile and giggle...but it did!! 🙂😆
😂 Thank you for watching our videos, Krista!
Definitely going to do my loggers next because of this video
So being your first time working on Carolina loggers. What’s your overall thought of the way they’re built and quality. I have several pairs and love them.
I have these same exact boots and I love them. Great video
Amazing work! Always enjoy watching you!
Thank you, Samuel!
Keep up the craft. I have question. Can saddle soap be used too often? I wear a leather work shoes that get grimy.
