I love how TH-cam has stopped recommending trashy "TOP 10" videos and is pushing quality craftsmanship in my Recommendations.
Man, you just added value to these shoes by upgrading them to what they should’ve been when the customer bought them! Great job!
This is one of the reasons I enjoy this channel. The manufacturer has swapped out some serious features for cheap alternatives while keeping a high price. That is outright thievery. I would skip this Brand. It is like a cheap knockoff but, at a higher retail price. Thanks for all your info. I am learning what makes a quality shoe.
Your customer dropped off a good pair of shoes...but came back to pick up a great pair of shoes. Outstanding work! 👍
This video is a real eye opener. So much for getting what you think you're paying for. You guys are managing to establish trust with your viewers and likely don't even realize it. I'm thinking we need to consult with you guys before the next purchase of high end shoes.
Another great video Trenton. I am glad that I didn't pay $500 + for them. I appreciate the passion you and Heath have for your restorations.
I'm not a cobbler wanted to learn but couldn't get anyone to teach me, but I did resole a pair of army combat boots, grounded the sole and heels till they were level used a drill and a very small drill bit used a trench tool and nylon thread and rubber cement sewed the soles and glued then nailed the heels on, didn't look to bad after I cleaned them up, they lasted about 5yrs, the rubber came from a horse stall pad, worked with what I had, wasn't making much money then and needed work boots, most of the stuff I had but the trench tool and thread a friend gave me, enjoy watching these guys working on boots and shoes.
I think a video of high end shoes compared to low end shoes would be great. Break them down and compare the leather and construction of each shoe. Love your guys work. Keep it up
I’m getting addicted to this channel and this is only the second vid I’ve watched. Great work and I love how transparent you guys are 💖👍
A bit disappointing to see the construction of the Tod’s Loafers with the plastic heel blocks and the narrow Blake stitched welt. Your recrafting with JR leather outsoles and the leather heel blocks certainly adds value to these already expensive shoes. As always, a very informative, interesting video. Thanks for sharing. Ed
Shade: thrown. And rightly so. Love the expertise (at the price point the welt and heel stack were inferior) and honesty, combined with humility, you guys are great.
TH-cam: Hey buddy, you should watch a shoe restoration video.
I'm a shoe guy . I love my upper end shoes . You guys do a bang up job on every pair of shoes I see you guys do .. they always look so awesome when your done . Better than new .
I appreciate the honesty you guys bring to your reviews. You’re always respectful, but you tell it like it is. That helps viewers know that we can trust what you say. Thanks!
First of all, thank you for your incredible craftsmanship. You are truly masters at what you do in an otherwise disposable society. It is a pleasure to watch your work and the fruits of your labor. Again thank you so much for what you do. You instruct by example.
Wonderful to see craftsmanship in such manner... guys you are professionals!
Wow, incredible restoration! They look almost new. Great job - you are a true very, very highly skilled craftsmen! Great video!
Wow, you do respond to comment! I remember someone wrote that he hope you would do reviews on shoes instead of just repairing, and here we are with a repair/review video. Way to go!
I've had my dress shoes custom made from the ground up by an older gentleman who is a retired shoe maker, but still makes the odd pair as a hobby. They are by far the best shoes i've ever had! Thick high quality leather, wood shank, stacked leather heel block, goodyear welted construction... And because he does this as a hobby he only charged me 50 bucks for the material used. I got him a nice case of wine anyway ;)
What a major upgrade to these shoes! Great video! Outstanding work as usual!
