Love seeing the teardown, but I do wish there was commentary on the materials and construction. Yes, I know that was done in the cut in half episode, but I think there's a lot to explore and learn about in a teardown like this as well.
Weston, are you interested in cutting up my basic training boots from 1999? They look very similar to Altama 10" all leather combat boots. Stamped 10 1/2R j (inside a square) 4m97. I'll pay the shipping. They are just collecting dust.
Now that was a Zen experience, and better with no commentary, let the images reveal all, it is gorgeously simple, though complex construction full of natural materials (Not sure about the man-made thin sole though). This is a great video and I really enjoyed it. Thanks very much.
I find your channels interesting and informative. Normally I can watch you rip apart something like yeezys without a flicker of emotion, because I have no respect for something cheap that's had it's price artificially inflated. While I can appreciate the look inside of these, it gave me a dirty little feeling, like I was watching someone destroy the work of master craftsmen.
My 😲💔 at seeing you tear apart a truly expensive and well made shoes like these. I never gave it much thought when you tear apart some crappy Nikes or other cheaply made boots. I hope Mr Northhampton never sees this......
Cool video. I think the showcasing of the shoe at the beginning was too short and too fast to really see the shoe. At the end, I'd suggest grabbing a bunch of all of those clips taking the shoe apart and smashing into together in reverse as an end to the video. Great job.
So many question about this shoe! $526 just on materials. Actually make the shoe worth it. Now to learn if the material is high quality compared to less expensive shoes, the quality of stitching is better compared to less expensive shoes, and the stitch reinforcement is necessary. Is the hand stitching really done by cobblers/trained artisans or cheap labor taught to stitch together pre cut pieces and follow instructions? I’ve built leather wallets from a kit, I’m not trained. Even though their labor is worth pay, it’s not the level of quality of cobblers who have done their profession for years. So many question!
I hope this comment gets found, I sub to all three anvil channels, we would like a video of all cordovan shell footware brand comparison as well as a video that compares these newer exotic hide compares to more common top quality hide.
I would never own a pair of shoes like this not because of the cost, but because they aren’t my style. Still, watching this was painful. Invest in a couple of better tools for these kinds of jobs: a decent plastic spudger and a putty knife. Keep the X-acto knife, but ditch the screwdriver.
What this achieves I will never know!! such a waste of a shoe that 54 months to make...except id didnt ! The leather prep process might be long but the making isnt that ...Just click bate on your behalf!
it's not really a 'fake material'. that leather there doesn't look 'leathery' too me (not that i ever had that particular expensive leather in my hands). sure- it doesn't wrinkle and it's nice, but those shoes just simply look cheap to me and a couple of non-shoe-interested guys at work i've asked about. maybe not super-cheap like, but deffinitely not £800. whatever floats their boat, if they found a niche market to cater for than it's good for them
@@simongrushka983guess you missed the $526 price tag for just the materials. Only $400 for the hours of labor to assemble. They are a bargain. That's why the cost so much. And those high quality materials and craftsmanship will last decades, unlike the cheap stuff that falls apart in a year or two. Not my style, but I'd love to have similar build (material and craftsmanship) for a smooth toe black Oxford with a leather sole. Since I'm 50 they'd last longer than I will.
I have a few pairs of Crown shoes and they are the most comfortable and easy to look after shoes I have ever had. The Cordovan leather is soft, allows your feet to breathe and with the correct cleaning materials can look like new every time. I have had the pair that I am wearing resoled at least 3 times mainly because they are so wonderfully comfortable that wearing anything else is just wrong. And I have a good collection of good shoes. It pains me to see them destroyed like this but it really shows why they are the price they are - look at the recent tear down of the Gucci sneakers to see how you can get ripped off.
Now put it back together
🤣
😂 Yea it’s Rose Anvil Builds not Rose Anvil Destroy hahah
damn, considering the materials cost alone, not even counting for the expert craftsmanship that has to go into it, $1k seems like a freakin bargain.

I never been impressed by a sneaker construction before. Well, I am impressed now! The details and execution are mind blowing. Fantastic video!

This is incredibly well made. I am genuinely impressed.
Im not even a huge shoe guy, but this hurts to watch. Those are some beautiful shoes.
Simultaneously guilty at seeing a work of art torn apart and oh so happy with that incredible sound.

Props for popping all those stitches on camera, but I know the *real* reason you did it was to be able to use it as a pattern. ;)
There were a lot more components than I thought there would be.
I like to keep a few of these around to give to friends. They always end up liking them after complaining that they cost too much blah blah blah..
You give away $1000 pairs of shoes?
Ordered my ND3 as I watch this
no bandsaw?
The other one already got the bandsaw on the Rose Anvil channel

For $1000 that outsole is a lot thinner than I expected
Next build "most expensive wallet we've made yet"
Beautiful shoes best material and expert craftsmanship
Maybe Crown Nothampton should have just sent you the bits before assembly - wouldn't be so painful to watch! 😀
54 months to " make" the shoes?. No way. Shoes aren't made until all the materials are on hand. Then, it takes a maximum of a couple of days.
Cool video. I think the showcasing of the shoe at the beginning was too short and too fast to really see the shoe. At the end, I'd suggest grabbing a bunch of all of those clips taking the shoe apart and smashing into together in reverse as an end to the video. Great job.

Rose anvil destroys
Charlie Chaplin wants his shoes back
Send them back in a box for repair 😅😅😅😅😅
Wow they sure use a lot of glue.
Not many have the stomach for anatomy in medical school. Was this much like seeing an autopsy of a child?
Hurt 😂

Why would it take 54 months to make 1 pair of shoes? Are you including the tanning time in that?
10:11 yes they are
No one wants to see that. NO ONE!
Some shoes deserve better!
You hurt my feelings.
This hurts so much to see
pointless exercise! waste of so much effort put into that pair of shoes over 54 months and yet you dissected it!
What this achieves I will never know!! such a waste of a shoe that 54 months to make...except id didnt ! The leather prep process might be long but the making isnt that ...Just click bate on your behalf!
you didn't really build much in this case
shoes for £800 yet they look like cheap plastic shoes from China.
You just proved that the average consumer can't tell the difference, and thus reinforced why companies feel fine using fake materials.
"cheap plastic" is definitely not what I'm getting when I look at those...
