Thank god you guys started uploading in HD. Those 144p were informative but when you want to see how things are made and you can't even make out the 8 ton machines in the video.
Who knew? Very interesting. My mom used to recycle my old clothes into new clothes using ric-rac. I had no idea how it was made. Thank you for sharing :-)
Humm.I wanted to move to the country so bad.Moved and move next to a field of cotton. I could have pass out when I seen cotton coming from a flower or plant.I felt tricked..You read and hear about but UNTIL you see it up close it just a thought not real facts.ooh..
To think those machines are 120+ years old yet STILL work, just shows how well designed they were and if it isn't broke, don't fix it, just leave it and keep using it.
No idea why I’m watching this at 10.36pm lol. But very interesting. Didn’t think it was as manual as it is. Just assumed it was a fully automated process!
Hopefully these Women will share their knowledge with the next Generation, it’s incredible how much they know how to produce this stuff with these old machines
I love How It's Made. It has taught me that when the little plastic end comes off of my shoelace, it's not the company or somebody at the factory making a personal attack on me. That would be impossible. It simply came off because of normal incompetence. My faith in humanity has been restored.
Oh no, it's nothing so simple. You've underestimated the super-competence of the entire shoelace supply chain. We know what shoes you wear. We know if you're ever planning on buying new shoes or new laces. Our agents are everywhere, planting sabotaged laces before you arrive, removing them after you leave, and guarding the public from obtaining the despoiled products we reserve for you. Don't think about mail order or online shopping. We can intercept those. Want to get a friend or family member to buy for you? Do you think we haven't got that covered too? All those people, well, all those _few_ people who also have aglet "problems" in public, they aren't problems, that's exactly the script we wrote for our actors, each and every one of them doing exactly what we pay them to do. We are Big Shoe and we are grinding you under our heel, one broken aglet at a time.
Are these some kind of special premium shoelaces? I didn't think the process was so labor intensive and required people to do so much of the work. I would think it'd be much more automated.
They are made on a weaving loom. Some are made on a braiding machine like the 120 year old. I worked for a shoelace co in North Carolina for 32 years. Very interesting the things that are made from cording.
Wow it’s prehistoric factory. Bobbins winding and tipping is nowadays light years ahead. Also braiding process is few times faster in moderne factories. Still very cool though 😎
Old Shoelaces are getting redundant today, adults today should utilize those non-tying laces so yourself or your kids don't need to tie them ever again.
@@cecilyerker , mine got loosen many times when I was back in school, I super-glue the hell out of it. Today, I can finally wear that non-tie laces which I got that inspired from Vat19.com
You must love Jehovah your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. You must love your neighbor as yourself. Jesus the anointed is Lord! Repent and be baptized and believe the Gospel.
Actually.. The oldest known footwear in the world are 8,000 year old makeshift sandals made of plant material that were found in a cave in Missouri. Thanks for doing some in depth research before posting this to the rest of the world.
No wonder Chinese are beating us at everything. No automation for even simple tasks like making shoelaces. The only excuse is if this video was filmed in year 2000.
I never imagined the complex process of making shoelaces. Incredible. Thanks
Rocío Aguilera right? Jumanji taught me just keep them off of conveyor belts and you'll be fine.
Wowwww sooo complex.
Thank god you guys started uploading in HD. Those 144p were informative but when you want to see how things are made and you can't even make out the 8 ton machines in the video.
Came here just to hear them say "aglet", 3:35 wasn't disappointed.
so did I
Ooooh I just loved the ''wavy'' shoelaces! Never seen them before until now.
That's called "ric rac." It's mostly used as trim on fabric, but I suppose you could use it for whatever you'd like.
Whoever designed the weaving/knitting machines are geniuses! I don’t even understand how the rickrack machine is doing its thing.
neither do I but it's mesmerizing
That last machine! Fascinating!
Who knew? Very interesting. My mom used to recycle my old clothes into new clothes using ric-rac. I had no idea how it was made. Thank you for sharing :-)

Very well maintained as well, I'd imagine. I love seeing old machines still chugging away.
That big wheel is pretty thoughtful. Employees can do work out while working.
I used to watch these all the time with my dad when i was little :(
Same
Same as me
It's okay love.
Me workin there
“Wheres Kev?”
Employee: “Watching the 120 year old bobbins go round and round again”
No idea why I’m watching this at 10.36pm lol. But very interesting. Didn’t think it was as manual as it is. Just assumed it was a fully automated process!
Love love love that the ric-rac machine is still being used at 120 years old. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!
Man, I could never work there. I would have everything so tangled up😂
Agreed
Pretty sure there's a machine for that........
Now lets sing the Aglet song from Phineas and Ferb.
That's what I thought. It's went aglet in my head right away.
😂
A whole generation of people will grow up knowing what an aglet is lol
A-G-L-E-T, don’t forget it!
i think Phineas and Ferb song make us remember very well :)
"The plastic tips at the ends of shoelaces are called aglets. Their true purpose is sinister!"

Very interesting. Thank you.

That was pretty cool actually.
Did I just get "rick racked"?
Yes, by bobbins
Finally, the mystery of the Aglet has been revealed to me. With this information, none shall stop me!
Absolutely satisfying
Very good technique
Wow fashionable and functional :)
Mind. Blown.
How badly do I want a mile long shoelace now?
Wow so amazing 👍👍👍👍
Think about it,78 different colors..dam that's impressive for a 100 yr old machine..cool.
@3:34
WHOO!! Let's hear it for the aglet!! Come on, everyone say it with me!
A-G-L-E-T. AGLET!
DON’T FORGET IT
Good to know, thank you for sharing.
ok y’all can stop saying “im first”
crouton crunchers I mean really people, this is an mostly educational channel.
Please, yes!
Wow!! Great video!! Now I know...
Better wear some PPE if there is some acetone
Where do you get parts for a 130 year old machine?
Same as any other industrial machine part! You get a chunk of metal and machine it
AGLET! (phineas and ferb)
A-G-L-E-T
dont forget it!
What do you do for a living?
I make shoelaces like it was the 1900's
Basically making shoelaces
A G L E T aglet don't forget it
2 am and I am here watching how shoelaces are made what a life I live XD
But now you know.
UM DO THEY EVER CLEAN THESE MACHINES
Nobody knew what a aglet was but now no one can forget because of Phineas and Ferb
That's a shoe lace
Neat!!
*Nhiều dây đẹp nhỉ*
Amazing
I thought I was going to see how fat laces were made! 😔 like the old school breakdancing laces from the 80's!
They are made on a weaving loom. Some are made on a braiding machine like the 120 year old. I worked for a shoelace co in North Carolina for 32 years. Very interesting the things that are made from cording.
@@theresahammitt6474 thank you for the information! Growing up, I always wondered how they made them with criss cross designs and checkered colors!
At the end it was slipped in that an even number of bobbins produces a round lace and an odd number a flat one. Does this pertain to all weaving?
I’d like to know how they make the polyester strands. Lol
Aglet
TIL; Aglet...
At first I thought, “why would I want to know that?”... And then I clicked.
interesting
Wow it’s prehistoric factory. Bobbins winding and tipping is nowadays light years ahead.
Also braiding process is few times faster in moderne factories.
Still very cool though 😎
lovelock cave sandals are 10,000 years old...
bobbin man
I like shoes
Now show us how shoes are made.
How in the hell do we create such machines. Unbelievable the shit we’ve created and we’re not even that insane on technological view
Hi
Now I know 👍
I know this I don't need this one .the 🐝 BUZZBUZZ.
To think they made children do this before labor last came around.
I like your shoelaces.
Its need lot of treat
Old Shoelaces are getting redundant today, adults today should utilize those non-tying laces so yourself or your kids don't need to tie them ever again.
arrowghost The advantage is to tie the shoes to the desired tightness on the foot and then untie it and quickly release the foot from the shoe.
@@cecilyerker , mine got loosen many times when I was back in school, I super-glue the hell out of it. Today, I can finally wear that non-tie laces which I got that inspired from Vat19.com
I don't see those working with dress shoes. Maybe they can make a fancy version.
"The sea was angry that day my friends, like an old man trying to send back soup in a deli."
If any rope needed contact me I all so making shoe laces
Literally no one searched for this
Hi🌚💔✋🏻
How is made
Children
Take a shot every time he says thread(s)
168 times..
166
So I guess he says ''thread(s)'' once every two seconds, seems legit.

Thanks for doing the research to realize the person who uploads this isn’t the person making the show
arrival my of form fast have a little of could but also top my whit jackets the head
Me lafyo

Yea, I doubt my shoe laces where made manually by two white women.
If the shoe brand was made in the USA, it almost certainly was.
@@cecilyerker That is why I doubt my shoe laces where made this way. The very majority of shoe laces are probably made in Asia.
