I fell down the rabbit hole of TH-cam and landed on your page. And am staying. My husband was a Piano Tuner and Refinisher for 40 years (having learned in the old country (Hungary), and his shop looks EXACTLY like your shop. I often tried to encourage him to clean/organize - he fought me tooth and nail as he said he would never find anything. And you work the same way!
I would love to see you do a custom exotic dress shoe from scratch with some type of fancy leather. All in your own style. I'm sure it'll sell quickly too from the following you're getting on here. I love watching this kind of stuff. You truly are a master cobbler.
Those Prada are particularly sweet looking. And, both of those (and his other pair) are just so much better with the complete stitch job. The partial blind effect is a nice touch. Beautiful work Steve.
The gentleman who sent you these shoes is getting his money's worth and then some. Here again, we're witness to Tom Ford so-so quality. I guess the money must have been directed to advertising and the alligator leather.Terrific.
Had a pair of shoes, heels reglued, it was quite messy when I picked them up. I always wish we had a shop like yours out here. I know he did the best he could, but your training taught you excellence. It's a gift.
Juanita Clifton couple of months late but Steve does repairs by mail. You can send in your shoes and he can fix them and ship them back. Costs a bit more and takes a bit longer, but it’s worth it for the quality of the repair job.
Steve, you are the man also the new Alligator Hunter lol. Thanks for sharing, it never stops to amaze me your attention to detail...even when starting without coffee!
What is not to like? Loved your upload (even your kinda singing). Thank You for sharing; keeps the rest of us entertained. Can't tell you how it helps to pass the time in a not so good day. Let's Continue, Hammertime!
It would be cool if you did a shop tour. I am interested in your tools, supplies, and anything else you might have in your shop. Thanks, and I appreciate your craftsmanship.
I can't fathom the cheap quality of these Tom Ford shoes. Nothing but a branded name on what's nothing more than a mediocre quality shoe. Amazing really. If I were the owner, I'd send this video to Tom and request a refund. OTOH, Steve is the king of cobbling. Literally. Amazing work as usual!!!
"Let's continue" to watch Master Cobbler Steve do another outstanding job on beautiful shoes. America's favorite cobbler!!! You are getting so very popular now it would not surprise me that you had a customer from Mongolia mail in a pair of shoes for repair.
I've been binging on your videos... I do leather but have never seen shoe work before and its amazing to watch you work... I learn so much watching you. Thank you...Bill
People say the darndest things & it's finally my turn today! I noticed your mustache and beard are growing out a little & it is looking Regal / Dapper. I hope your wife likes it, she is very important in this equation! (I didn't like my husband"s beard short & scruffy=ouch for me!) I think it is GREAT that you are singing all through the video. It shows that you are enjoying your work! Don't worry about the editing. NOW on to the important stuff....THESE SHOES LOOK FANTASTIC!!! Beautiful Works of Art!! Take care & God Bless.
@@BedosLeatherworksLLC Ahhhh, Some things are just worth doing for a higher/better cause!! One that makes both of you very happy!! Take care & God Bless to you, your wife & family.

NOTHING BUT BADASS I LOVE THE COMPRESSOR IN THE BACK GROUND AND ALL THAT LOUD ASS HAMMERING ..HOWEVER STEVE IS A AWESOME SINGER YOU SHOULD HEAR HIM SING KARAOKE JUST AWESOME.........GREAT WORK AGAIN STEVE...PLEASE SEND ESPRESSO
ANOTHER AWESOME VIDEO! Hi, Steve!!! What the customer wants, the customer gets, and better than new! I liked the purple bottom pair, and these are both wonderful, as well! OMGOSH, the craftsmanship!!! You love what you do. It shows!
I like how authentic your video's are. Perfect video's makes us forget how things are in reality and your video's are perfect to make me understand the amount of work that goes into shoe repair. Keep up the good work
Steve my friend - I have 4 quick comments on yet another masterpiece video......1) I hope when you cut your arm you didn’t spill your claret all over the customers items (ha ha)🤣 2) Please sing all you want sir, music is food for the soul 3) I love the fact we don’t get hammer warnings - everyone except ‘you know who’ doesn’t have an issue with it 4) You remain a gentleman and a craftsman throughout........please keep doing what you are doing, or as you’d say “let’s continue!” 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼All the best as always, Simon (United Kingdom) 👞 👠
Always a good day when you learn something. A heel pryer. Who would have thought. Thank you Steve. Love the videos. You gave me such confidence I repaired an old pair of Birkenstoks. (really, all I did was replace some cork using contact cement. Then shaped it) It was fun. I don't have to buy a new pair. Keep on BANGING!
Believe it or not, the Prada shoes were actually probably very well made. Joseph Cheaney and Sons, a prestigious Northampton shoe maker, is a subsidiary of Prada and makes all of their dress shoes for them. Prada’s shoes are, of course, much more “fashion forward” than Cheaney’s eponymous line, but I would assume that the craftsmanship coming from the factory would be similar (that is to say quite good).
I suspect both of those pairs cost considerably more than a pair of Church's, Allen Edmonds, Crockett and Jones, but in terms of quality, they are light years behind. I suspect they cost a fraction of the price to make. Designer shoes are. nine times out of ten, appallingly made. Excellent job as always though, and always a pleasure to watch a craftsman work.
Steve, for those butted joins, you might consider a "marquetry cut", ie cut the heel piece over-length, overlap the existing leather, then cut through both pieces together. This is used a lot in marquetry to get little pieces of wood veneer to fit without a gap. In your case, you would need a backing piece to protect the aligator skin from the cut.
Steve, your quality of videoing is good. No one expects or should expect, any more than what you produce. You do a excellent job of showing your work and craftsmanship and i love watching your vlogs. I get annoyed at people who complain, if they dont like your channel, they can rack off!!! Much love xxxxxx
Been a subscriber for awhile just never commented b4 (veteran✪female here) ..Just getting out of your normal environment can be educational, however, watching your skill it was like getting a Master degree in working the shoe biz... I can’t thank you enough for the experience you added to the videos. Cant even find a place to box hat's anymore !!! Sharpest knives 👀 Love your mustache
Another top job, thanks for sharing! At 18:09 mins into the vid you asked whether anyone ever had a song stuck in their head, which was real spooky because yes...I have ‘Para Machuchar Meu Coracao’ by Joao Gilberto and Stan Getz (a song I’m learning) rattling round in my head right now and had to laugh when you asked😂👍
Sometimes when you take apart these very expensive shoes, I'm amazed at how they're relatively poorly made compared to the price they cost new. Not that they're poorly made... but yeah in comparison to the cost, yeah. Like the fancy purses, they don't seem to use the materials and such one would expect, they actually get better materials during the repair.
I too feel the same way- a let down in many ways. Yes supposed to be paying for quality, but you are paying for a name. I would rather pay for a quality product.
When buying expensive stuff, make sure that the manufacturer has their own factory to make them in house. Most brands usually subcontract to large factories, Steve was correct in saying both of these pairs of shoes were probably made in the same factory. Do your homework.
Unfortunately often you are paying for the magazine ads, tv commercials, billboards and promotional events. That's why sometimes a local craftsman or small company might actually put more money into their materials, less overhead.
@@j.t.r1409 yes, but still, for the money paid, they should be better. I prefer to shop local and with small companies or individuals when I can. Of course, these days, in a small town, that isn't always possible.
Excellent as usual. Your video quality is excellent ss well. Just disregard what others say. You are a cobbler, not a videographer. I have no problem with them. Excellent. I want to come bach up and visit again soon, bring you some more boots. Haha..
Outstanding restorations! Impeccable work once again! I kept chuckling everytime you'd just toss your tools onto the bench when you're done utilizing them. I have that same habit, especially when I'm on a roll 😜, but at the end of the day, my tools go back to their respective habitat. *QUESTIONs:* Is it possible to soak the sole of the shoe in the dye so that the whole sole remains pigmented? Will this compromise the quality of the leather/sole? 🤔 Continue...
I may be in the minority, but I feel like what you’re doing camera and process wise is fine. If doing it this way is what works , then keep on doing it this way and focus on the content. Thanks for all your work to share your craft with us.
HI, STEVE! I'm high as hell right now and you said someone asked you if that was an oyster shucker? I BUSTED OUT LAUGHING! Thank you! Been a little crappy for me lately, but I thank you for your videos!!!
Lmao I love that glue bottle monstrosity, I’m always thinking to myself that I must be the only one that’s really interested by it. I just want to clean it all off lol
Steve, I need to see some videos on the work you are doing to the boots in the background in this video. Also could use more videos on boots in general. Just a simple request sir. Thanks for making these videos, I love them. Let’s continue...
Wow, so many videos this week. Thank you Steve! Agree, shoes are to be worn. When should shoes just be thrown away and replaced with new....As opposed to repairing?
Gorgeous shoes, great job giving the customer what he wanted. I didn't realize asking for different colors for the bottom was a thing, go figure. Then again, shoe fashionista I am not (which is why it's funny to me that I'm enjoying these videos). I don't bother buying expensive shoes due to how I walk and how quickly my soles wear down unevenly. I can't wear high heels anymore 😭 due to spinal fusion surgery, so I can only wear flats 😢 (not a lot of pretty options for flats). 😢 My shoes last 6 months if that. After watching these videos, I'm wondering if I should go for more expensive quality shoes and just keep replacing the soles rather than throw away a pair every 5-6 months 🤔
I can see this level of repair for a well constructed shoe. Apparently the owner really likes this Tom Ford shoe. IMO, the shoe is not worth the initial cost or the cost to repair it properly as Steve will no doubt add value. “If you’ve got the money, honey, I’ve got the time.”
Don't worry, sir. I'll want orange soles on my shoes in the near future as well. Cannot wait to ship them to you, but have to wear the sole down a bit 1st.
Steve, thanks for the great videos! Question- Why do you sometimes re-use the bottom of the heel? Doesn’t that part get worn down and need to be replaced? Let’s continue!
Robert M if you are referring to the heel base, we try to use the old one if it is in good shape other wise we replace. The top lift which is what wears down is always new
I love watching these videos. What type or brand show do you where? Think is a quality shoe? Why don’t you clean the place up lol? Looks a little hectic in there
👍Good work. 💞 Seems quite expensive. 😆😂🤣Some people call these “clown shoes”. 😆😂🤣 But hey, ya gotta give the customer what they want. Different strokes for different folks. 👍😃

I will not complaint paying that amount by restoring those thousand of dollars alligator shoes. Those shoes are beautiful . You did a wonderful job.
That kind of orange bottom blend is stunning!

You do extraordinary work. These shoes are my favorite so far. Absolutely gorgeous ❤
Those Prada are particularly sweet looking. And, both of those (and his other pair) are just so much better with the complete stitch job. The partial blind effect is a nice touch. Beautiful work Steve.

Great mix of shoes - I love both of them and would wear both without any hesitation. Great work as usual :)
You're a good man Charlie Brown. So many cobblers and shoe makers are turning up on TH-cam , or maybe I'm late to the game. But, you rock
Another solid production. Shoes looked great would be nice if one could get that kind of quality out of the box
Randy, wouldn’t that be amazing? Gone is the day when the pride they take in a product that has ones name on it.
You can get that quality out the box, Edward Green made in Northampton England. You're welcome :)
Right on
Yes ! I agree on that.
You can get that quality if you know where to look. Carmina is a good place to start.
Enjoy watching you work Steve and I can't explain it but very fascinating...!
