Love that boot. That's old school badassness, splitting the footbed to create a leather gemming to stitch the welt to. And leather lining inside instead of cloth! Much love Brian.
I just started leather work and have such an appreciation for how he makes his boots. So glad this guy exists in the world and is able to share his passion.
Dear Brian, This comment probably won't be read but it is needed to be said. For cowhide leather, the grain direction is from neck to tail, along the back spine, so cutting with the grain which is horizontal to backbone will minimize the break. For horsehide it is the opposite, the grain direction runs across the back spine, so cutting from one side to the other minimize the break. That is the reason why tannery sell cowhide sides cut from each side of the back while horse leather is cut as horse front and horse butt. In this video I saw you cut the vamp against the grain direction which is I assume for the maximum yield?
Man your videos are a whole vibe ❤ I used to watch these videos with my toddlers and they'd just sit back and drink their bottle and enjoy it with me 🙏
Glad to see you back young man. As a general contractor I respect and appreciate skilled craftsmanship. Also I suffer from anxiety challenges, so your videos help me to relax and clear my head. The mix of your art and instrumental music in the background I find very beneficial. So thanks….and its good to see you posting again.
This dude works to FINE tolerences... Brian... your skill and your artistry are honed to such a precise level of mastery... Bravo, Sir. Bravo. First time I saw your rubber soles I thought "this guy is influenced by the WW2 red paratrooper boots..." but wondered if the inner row of stitching was just aesthetic. After watching this video, I can see that it is indeed sewn onto the leather insole. Nice touch! It also looks like each and every stacked leather heel block is shaped individually for the boot it's being mounted to? .... I'm speechless... Stunning craftsmanship, from start to finish...
Wow to wear a pair of boots that you made yourself. Truly outstanding. You sir have more skill and talent than any one man should have. Thank you for sharing your craft with us.
If I came into a lump of money large enough to allow me to retire at age 36, I would come straight to LA, knock on your door and ask to be your apprentice. I have 2 pairs of boots made by you, including the first pair of M-42 Service Boots that I commissioned 😉, and your skill level is nothing short of phenomenal. Your skills deserve to live on, the same as your teachers skills were passed to you. Keep up the good work Brother!
So happy that your back i can say without a doubt that im not the only one who missed you . I hope that you and your family and friends are doing good as well. Thank you for every vlog and for you sharing your life with us
Amazing! It's very satisfying to watch someone who is so good at their craft making something that's so beautiful when it's finished. Thanks for the video.
Would you ever make a video on some of your vintage clothing? I noticed you wear a lot of workwear from the 1940s such as salt & pepper, denim, brown beach etc
I'm not trying to second guess you, Brian, since I know very little about boot making, but could you tell me why the soles aren't trenched before stitching? Won't the stitching wear out much sooner? Glad that you're back!
Man o man! Top notch leather lashing from such a young fella!! Man, I feel like i'm back in the boot shop my mom worked at many moons ago! Love your work, young sir!! Quick question, I just checked out your store and looked at those boondocker boots and I saw the logo tag you made for the inside( young boy and master sitting) Who embroidered those kind of tags? Where did you get those tags? Absolutely love your work!! Thank you, sir.
I wish I had money so you could make me a pair of handmade boots. It would mean more to me if they were made especially for me. I enjoy watching you work and the craftsmanship is exceptional. Keep up the good work. There are only a few people left who can make things from scratch anymore. ❤
Pretty sure he has videos on that. I believe he does the middle stitch you’re talking about through only the midsole and outsole, attaches them as a unit to the boot, and then does the perimeter stitch through the welt.
Just thinking about how awesome that boot looks, but I prefer lace up boots... Have you ever made or ever thought of making a boot with a zipper on the side, easy on and off?
I wore a pair of zipper boots and one of them eventually failed after a few years. Trick with zipper boots is to untie and unzip when removing and zipping up and lacing up while wearing; if you lace them and rely on the zipper for doffing/donning you put all that stress on the zipper and it will eventually fail.
@@cjanquart I have never worn them, honestly, but in the Marine Corps and here and there I would see them (side zippered boots) and always wondered. Thanks for the info.
Thank you for coming back to share your craft and skill.
My pleasure!
Been missing you this pass year, glad you are back. Excellent boots, great craftmanship.
To be able to go home every night with that feeling of accomplishment is priceless!! Maestro you have my respect!!

So are you saying with horse hides you cut perpendicular to the spine or parallel? Sorry, just trying to make sure I understand this.

Love that!
This is exactly what I just finished doing!
I always watch them with my kids! I’m not sure which among us enjoys it the most.😉
This is the first video I’ve seen and I’m in love with your boot making!!!
You’re a true artist!
May I ask how you were taught?

I literally mean this: MOST GORGEOUS BOOTS EVER!!!!
If I was to drool over a pair of boots, these would be the ones. 🤣

Would you ever make a video on some of your vintage clothing? I noticed you wear a lot of workwear from the 1940s such as salt & pepper, denim, brown beach etc
It’s been a quick minute seeing your videos. Gotta say love that background music.
Beautiful Sir
Awesome awesome 🎉
Awesome!
*HOLY SHIT!!!! It’s a new video!!!*
GREAT JOB.
Amazing. This uncle can make boots in 15 minutes.
I'm not trying to second guess you, Brian, since I know very little about boot making, but could you tell me why the soles aren't trenched before stitching? Won't the stitching wear out much sooner? Glad that you're back!
generating future work!
Homie is back!!!!
Welcome back Brian!
Amazing
Craftsmanship at its finest.
Amazing work experience💯👌
Brian we love your video and work you remade a pair of whites for me up here in buffalo ny rocking Role club!
That is a damn good looking boot !

I love when you shave the leather around the boot it just itches a certain part of my brain 🥴
Interesting!
Sepatu boot yang gagah dan berkualitas bagus ...
Damn fine work!!
Craftsmanship optima forma! Nice boots and video too, continue ;-))
Great work…
Love it
so nice!!
Happy New Year🎉
Good looking boots
They are a work of art friend Brian... I enjoyed it like a dwarf, one question, is the skin of a horse? looks good quality.👏👏👏🤙
Brian, can you show how you do that middle inside stitch thru the sole and mid sole.
Pretty sure he has videos on that. I believe he does the middle stitch you’re talking about through only the midsole and outsole, attaches them as a unit to the boot, and then does the perimeter stitch through the welt.
Awesome video. So glad you are making videos again! Would love a pair of your boots but can't afford it :-)
Great job. Where can I get some shoe last like those. I'm thinking of redone the sole of my boots. But I'm afraid loosing the shape.
Good job 😊
Alô Brian! Saúde! PAZ do SENHOR JESUS CRISTO.
Old school cool
Thank you!
Great work on a beautifully made boot! Got'em in black?
Hey Brian, how's your truck coming along?
Working on it. I'll make an update video soon!
BELLISSIMI 👏
