    Thanks to Adam and Issy for making a big drive down to bring In these cool harvester boots, that Adam picked up for cheap with the sole intention (no pun intended) of having them upgraded to beefy soles here in the shop!

      Buisness idea. IF having customer reactions improves view count, you could reduce the price for those willing to be on camera. Just a thought.

      Don't think I didn't notice, that in the beginning, when you took the laces out, the left boot had an underhand cross, and the right boot...well, I don't know. BUT(!) when you laced them up at the end, the RIGHT boot had the underhand, not the left. Thought I wouldn't see that, eh? Not so fast, pal! Great video, by the way.

    I am the owner of the boots in the video and I have to say I completely blown away with Dan's skill and workmanship, I couldn't be happier with the final boots
    I purchased these Red Wing Harvester boots '2943' cheap off Depop for £80, always with the intention of Dan doing some work on them. They had some nasty scratches on the toe box and I'm not a fan of the mini lug outsole, I find it far to thin for my liking. I know this as I also have some Red Wing Blacksmiths '3343' (basically the 6" version).
    These boots are now incredibly comfortable and perfect for walking on any terrain thanks to the leather midsole and new beefy vibram outsole.
    Dan has not just repaired these boots he has created something better than even Red Wing could do, a real upgrade.
    They are a European only model costing £350 new and are now sadly discontinued. So paying a little bit to have them resoled was definitely worth it, especially when you see how much blinking hard work goes in to it.
    Me and my girlfriend have been a fan of your videos for a while now so popping down to your shop was a real treat for us. I even bought her one of your candles.
    Oh I need to get some of that Saphir mink oil ordered cos the boots have never felt better.
    Thanks Dan, keep up the good work.

      Red Wings are good boots and I love what you have chosen for that pair. I have never used the Saphir products, but mink oil is like magic for leather. Anytime they start to look a little dry, beat up, or feel a little firm; apply a little to bring them back to life.
