Steve, I am 54 years old and never in my life would I have ever thought that I would be so excited to watch a cobbler repair shoes. You are great at what you do and I enjoy the finished product. Everything you do turns out beautiful.
I’m 26 and enjoy this very much! Kinda want to try it myself. Just need to save up for a pair worthy enough to send in. Haha
yeah he's one of the best!
Steve you should offer a giveaway where you allow someone to come and intern with you for like 2 days. I would be ecstatic if I ever won that!
Would you run to the hills!
I am from Colombia I work in a shoe repair shop in Dallas TX every day at lunchtime I watch your videos someday I will have my own store and I hope to be as good as you ...👏👏
Frank Villarreal keep up the good work.
Frank, America was made with dreams such as yours! Never give up, any set backs will give you new ideas for success!
Que Dios te ayude mucho con tu sueño/May God help you A lot with your dream.
Frank Villarreal wish you all the best My friend....live your dreams.
Go for it Frank
Are the people wasting Trupentine also watching your videos? I suspect not. But I can think of a channel where this is done regularly.
Greetings from Budapest, Vass is just a few corner from here. Vass is one of the well known Hungarian shoe brand, so I always wanted to see one of these from the inside.
(The Hungarian s sound is not the same as the English, it pronounced like the sh in the word "sheet" or "FlorSHeim". So phonetically like Budapesht and Vash. (Vass is an older written version of the family name Vas (means iron))
The funny thing is, Flors-Heim is German and spoken like "floors home" ;)
Attila Varga thanks for your personal insight!!
Cool lesson in linguistics, as well as the master shoe renovator. TH-cams is awesome, as are you guys
Pretty good chance I’ll never own $1500 shoes. Hell, I’d sell you my foot for $1500.
LMAO FUNNY AS HELL! 😂😂😂😂
But you could maybe snag some on EBay for nothing and watch as Steve makes them back to new
Well if one foot goes it will be enough with $ 750, so I guess you are going to own one shoe, so smile your one step closer, or should I say one jump maybe, to your goals.
nowadays you can get a good goodyear pair with 250 -300 $
Stunning work as always!!
My plan is to wear out my shoes so I can send them in for this artist to redo.
good plan
Same sir same!
👍🏿
Why wear them out? Just send in a brand new pair of handmade shoes like this customer did....lol😆
Steve I couldn’t believe when you destroyed these new shoes !However the finished Bedoes job was like a dream What a brilliant end product French tip too 🤗🤗🤗🤗 Fabulous 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I’m a humble carpenter/contractor. I don’t own clothes nice enough for most peoples’ funerals, weddings, or even church. But watching you at your craft makes me wish I needed a fancy pair of refurbished shoes from Bedo’s.... Your craftsmanship is exemplary.
I started my collection (ridiculously large now) by buying a pair of Allen Edmonds 0n Ebay for $40 and had a half sole and heel plate put on by the local Cobbler for $45. Bought a set of shoe trees for $5 at a thrift store and refurbished them myself. So for about $100 I had a pair of beautiful Oxfords. And I've been hooked on doing it over and over. Sometimes I get lucky and can get them for $5 to 15 at thrift stores also.
go check a deseret industries if you have one in your area they are the mormon good will and often have really nice shoes
Surprising indeed Vass does not use stacked leather heels. As you say, functionally not an issue but having gone through all the trouble to craft a beautiful shoe like these then not go the whole hog... And yes, *ouch* to see that lovely new JR sole be removed.
On another note, it’s always fun to see how sedate Steve starts off his videos explaining what’s to come... makes the candid/humour that follows as the video progresses all the more enjoyable!
Clicked on this straight away. Let’s continue !
4Got the "👍's Up !
lol's
I see A bedo's video I like. Looked at the Vass shoe shop in Budapest last year! First comment, keep up the great videos. I've been following from the start!
Steve needs a merchandise store, shirts, mugs Leather care goods, maybe some book marks from left over leather I know I would buy it.
" Here we go Yo
Here we go Yo
Whasup whasup

Great start to the Vedio
One of my few channels I give a like before I even watch
Laszlo Vass was a master of shoemaking, unfortunately the younger generation who took over isn't anymore.
The company just took his name...
Hi Steve 🖐🏼. The shoes were Beautiful from the beginning. But you put your Midas touch on them AND they turned to pure gold.‼️l noticed that you love Beautiful things. I would love to see you dress up from head to toe. Maybe one day when you take the misses out on the town ‼️ As usual great job ‼️. Have a great evening ‼️🙋 👍👏👏 👏💯 💯💯 💯💯 💯♥️.
Steve probably wears an Armoni suit, the most expensive shoes and plays sharp dressed man as he strolls casually lol show them how it's done steve , ZZ TOP would be proud!!!
You are not just a shoe master you're a artist with shoes you create art my friend
I just bought a pair less than a month ago and they are probably the most handsome pair in my collection. Now I am waiting on a pair of Yeossal (with spade soles) and I can't wait! Quite disappointed with the fiber board stuff. Love how craftsmen like Steve, Trenton and Heath, and Weston from Rose Anvil give us an inside out look at products deemed as "the highest quality" but they end up not being all that. This really shows how much we should question some of these TH-camrs who swear by some products but are proven wrong by these experts. Thank you Steve! Now let's continue!
my favorite youtuber s!!
Didn’t some on r/mfa tear Rose Anvil a new one for knowingly perpetuating some myth BS?
Aside from the heel block the holdfast construction seems in line with the handmade marketing line they push imo
Don't forget "cobblers plus"
ahpadt i mean no one really is pushing you anywhere, it's just really a fact that handmade stuff is higher quality. of course it's more expensive but for a small group of people, it's totally worth it
you should do a video on your own shoe collection :)
Nobody does it better, makes me feel sad for the rest. Nobody does it half as good as you, Bedo's, you're the best. HI, STEVE!
OMG, my sewing machine is making basically that same noise and I can't get it oiled either! LOL
can you tell us about your childhood/training to do your craft?
loved your watch 😍
LOVE that "Complainer Guy"! The Know-It-All, the Cliff Clavin of cobbling, the Barney Gumble of Falls Church, VA.
why would you ruin a perfectly good wearable shoes into museum art that's too nice to wear now.
Buda-pesht is correct!
I love it when you anticipate heckles and mock them in your “Barney” voice. 😂
In the EU these shoes cost 559€.
That's not terribly expensive for hand made shoes, I can see why they cut some corners that don't impact the overall experience too much.
They went for a cheaper heel stack but used JR leather soles - a good decision in my book instead of stacked leather heel blocks and a lesser sole leather.
Hey Steve ....um.. Armenian safety precautions,,, glove the holding right hand and Touch the hot edge with naked left hand ..LOL.. note withstanding all the blisters... Bloody Beautiful Job my friend...... As Always !!!!!
Tonino Baroni well how can you feel it’s hot with the glove on???🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol.... you’re the best....i would love to sit and have a cigar/whiskey with you....2 old farts would have a laugh!!
Second time watching this. Great as usual! I bought a pair of Vass today and was disappointed to see the paper heel block but I’m glad to hear that the rest of the shoe is of stellar quality.
Hi Steve. The reflection of the ring light in shoe toes makes it look like the toes are bent in. Is there only me noticing it every time? 😁
I love watching you working, keep doing what you do! 🙂
Send that machine to My Mechanic!!!!
I can’t be the only one who feels a rush of emotion when I see your dad’s number set come out. Makes no sense, he wasn’t my dad. But I do appreciate how much it must mean to you to have those tools that your dad used.
First time I’ve heard “taking the edge off” not referring to drinking or other things lol, great job this customer must have really loved the uppers
Today was the anti-ASMR video, lol.
Wow they look great, love your stories Steve you have become one of my favourite channels to watch on youtube, once I see you have uploaded I quite happily sit with my cup of tea and relax, look forward to the next one :)
What was the cost of this project?
zev goldman I believe $640 or $650
For the squeak if you know where it’s coming from some grease is really good
Oil will eventually run out
Grease should stay in place
Just look like old cars ,👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️🥇🥇🥇thx for the time and nice vlog Steve 👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️see you next time
You and sharp edges, Steve. I've watched from the beginning and you've always had an attraction to them (sharp edges). Personally, most of us can't get far enough away from cutting tools and our hands don't shake! Love watching and learning about shoes, manufacturers and what they do and don't do. Guess that's because I have chronic foot problems; education is a great thing. Thank You, again.
I realize that this is an old video, and so @BedosLeatherworksLLC is unlikely to see it, but I figured I'd make a comment nonetheless for the algorithm's sake. This is a VERY interesting video for a few reasons.
First, the quality of the workmanship is incredible. All top shelf materials treated with the proper care by a highly skilled craftsman. That sole ended up a work of art, and I'm not sure that I'd enjoy scuffing that outsole through regular wear, but kudos to the client for being less fussy than me.
Second, it's a shame to see Vass cutting corners. Of course, Vass isn't selling at a Saint Crispin's level price but even so -- Vass, raise your MSRP by $25 and use a full grain heel stack! It's totally lame not to. And also, three nails isn't enough. Spend the extra 15 seconds to drive a few more!
Third, I'm not sure why the client bought these shoes which at current exchange rates would probably cost around $480, assuming that he bought them from the RTW collection, and then paid $650 to have the soles redone. Gaziano & Girling and Cleverley both offer a similar upper design with a spade sole, for not much more money and allow MUCH more customization.
I really like how you tell us how much the job is. I feel empty inside when I watch a video like this and don't get all the information ;
Wow! $800 for purchase and $650 for change out / repair...$1,450 for a pair of shoes. I think I'll stick with Allan Edmonds for $395. Steve, great video. You are an artesian cobbler .
ROFL. How ironic. 10:50 leather falls down he says timber. Timber / paper used in place of leather... Do you see it ...lol
I love the patterns you do on the soles.I know that you charge a lot to do them, I also know that the cost and the job you do are relevant to each other , BUT to someone like me disabled living on benefits those shoes are exorbitant money. I could not afford to buy those shoes let alone change them. What I don't understand is why spend such a massive amount of money on 1 pair of shoes then pay out as much again to change the sole, why not just have a pair specially made to your specifications & save tearing them apart?
I do love your work Steve you are a true artist & Master Cobbler.
Dawn Mason that’s a good question but it’s not my place to ask that of the customer
Not all people make sense, I would even argue most don't. Maybe the person simply has a lot of money and no hobbies. :) But in the end, it doensn't matter as long as it's work someone pays for.
Dawn Mason Perhaps the owner wanted the soles changed by Steve because STEVE (the greatest).
I had the same question…I believe that pair of Vass Oxfords are from their ready-to-wear collection (not bespoke). I have several bespoke pairs from Vass and the size is never marked on the bottom (because they’re bespoke)!😀 I’ve never seen them offer a spade sole either. The cost is around $650 for traditional calfskin. I’m going to ask Vass if they offer this sole. Steve’s sole is pure art!
Once again..great GREAT JOB, mr. Gorgeous
Oh! Steve what a beautiful job they are a credit to you is it possible to make something great even better ? Yes in the hands of Steve at Bedo's
um... Considering a cost of $800 for the shoes, that they're hand made, and the cost of using leather where its needed.... you'd think they would use leather instead of paper. Yes, paper 'works' but.... leather lasts longer imo.
accidentally clicked the timeline to 18:11 and OMG i thought it was someone screaming lol
You always do great work....this is not about your work...i think the customer was nuts. The uppers don't fit the soles. Its like sitting a Volkswagen body on a buick frame. It doesn't look right.
While I really appreciate the opportunity to see the inner workings of a truly hand made shoe like Vass, I’d never send in brand new shoes to just change the sole shape. Also all the sudden infatuation with spade sole is just weird (unless u r Preston Soto I suppose).
I have a pair of shoes which I bought a few years ago and wore only a few times over a year or two. Unfortunately, the shoes were a bit tight but I liked it and did not put away. Over time, I've noticed that the sole broke right where the outsole and the heel meets. I don't think the sole is leather-made. Anyway, my question is can I send it to you and have it repaired. The most important thing for me is the leather and the cutting or the shape and as long as these are kept, the sole you can be replaced by any of the same thickness. Thank you
I think he wants you to email for job inquiry.
thala ouragrag please e mail me
bedos@yahoo.com
Tara MacPhee thank you for that🤣🤣🤣
Given that you need to keep the face of your hammer smooth for hammering leather that will show, why not use a different hammer for driving in nails or striking other metal, where there might be a risk of scratches or dings?
ChrisC because this is my favorite hammer and when working I always grab that one, I guess I could if I focused enough to remember
Thanks again Steve for another amazing video!
STEVE: thank YOU for the videos. When you say "turpentine", do you mean turpentine OR do you mean "Master All-Purpose Thinner"?
arty mike it’s the same just different wording
@@BedosLeatherworksLLC I have sprayed a lot of paint in my life. Turpentine is a distilled resin from wood, usually pine trees. The SDS for Master All-Purpose Thinner shows that it has toluol and MEK.
Hey Steve good evening my friend it's hammer jammer time great video never heard of the company but I like the style of the shoe stay safe my friend God bless you and your family p.s please let's continue lol
Wow they look real sexy Steve!
Top job there my friend!
Cracking effort 💯👍🏼
YOU HAVE A ARTESIAN MAN .THE SHOES ARE FANTASTIC .REGARDS FROM SPAIN 👍
I think it's pronounced something like Vascht
650$ wow holy crap! Nice video though.
Sweet job Steve I always feel challenged to do better when I see your work.
.ستيف انت رائع جدا عزيزي
@Bedo's Leatherworks LLC Steve, hey man, how many hammers have you gone through during your career? (Asking in that Barney voice!) Nice & handsome pair of shoes! Have a great week!
fox10mulder13 I’ve had this one for as long as I can remember
It was glued with cardboard together instead of nailed on. It looked great but was not.
The mechanical engineer n me is fascinated with the sewing machines. Some appear to be my age (which is not small).
Learned here about shoemaking more, then from some shoemaker's blogs
I would be so worried about damaging a brand new pair of $800 shoes. You da man!
Wow stunning!! Great work. I love watching these videos!
Amazing job Steve!!!! Nobody does it quite like you. Better than brand new. They really look great!
Almost 100k subs! True craftsman ship as usual. Can’t wait for a tour of your personal shoe collection Steve. Probably some interesting and incredible shoes in there! On another note can’t wait for the take apart the machine video!
These shoes turned up pretty good ! Nice job !
Nice touch on the french tip, nice to see that being handcrafter to fit perfectly and not a stamp. As always, amazing attention to detail.
Boy could I screw up cutting the flap for the hidden stitches!
Today is Hammer TIme.🤣🤣🤣
Steve - Did I hear you correctly - you can stich the sole by hand? No Landis? Through that thick piece of JR leather? I feel like that would be a video worthy of 100,000 views.
Jon Walker it’s possible
What is the difference between cement & normal glue like PVA or something?
Needed that...beautiful work...as usual... Thank you... 100k soon...stay blessed...🇬🇧👍
You're a true craftsman my friend
What I don't understand is how someone can buy shoes, and get the complete sole replaced before having worn it down. It is one more sign of how spoilt alot of people are. Of course, I highly approve of how Bedo does it. Lovely craftsmanship.
Also a waste of resources! A nice JR sole never worn, thrown out.
The GOAT is back at it
Artwork!!! Maestro!!
I dream of buying brand new $800 shoes with paper heels and immediately sending them to Steve for a $600 fix lol
🤣🤣🤣
Paper shoes, cool concept.........not
Stunning craftsmanship ❤
So cool that you use things like your dad’s number set. Thanks for sharing! Peace and love...Suz What 🌻🌼🌻🌼
You might want to start using a hammer for only hammering nails so you don't keep marring your good hammer.
So this customer is going to get a better quality shoe for $650. Instead of buying brand new shoe's for $800 or more. THAT sounds like a better deal. But Will They last for another 25 year's. TO WEAR. AWESOME REPAIR.
I have two vintage shoes: a Florsheim spectator and Wright arch preserver cap toe Oxford, I want one of them to get a spade sole and French tip treatment! Are these expensive?
Yes most likely over $600
Hey Steve you are a true artist of craftsmanship but I was just wondering do you repair the old common cheap Walmart shoes.???
James Az sometimes
Steve got a shave and a haircut. Looking pretty good. Really like the shoe transformation. Makes it look more regal.
Great job and vid Steve ...
Cool Haircut for an old man. ?
I like them alot 😮 and the soles are to die for 😥😉
Sorry not the best speller
used compress air to blow the oil into the squeaky tool
Rick Harper good idea
A couple of things "they can do better". Thank God for your talent to finish the handcrafted work. Awesome job good sir.
i would love to have something worth sending to Steve to get repaired. Sadly i don't :(
Those shoes are so nice but they are out of my budget. I am currently watching a pair on Ebay but just have to save a little bit more.
Great vid thank you
Awsome as always !! //Lars
