I know how you feel about losing a grandparent. I am currently watching my grandfather go downhill myself and its a very big toll on my mental stability. He has been a big part of my life. My Condolences to your Family.
I remember losing mine. It can seem like the world is a smaller place. But you fight to keep the memories, tell the stories. That's how you keep the love alive, that's how you honor them. And our "pets," well, they're family too. Rough times Dan, stay in there.
Remember the good times with your grandad, those are the memories he'd want. Tell him you love him and grateful for all he did for you. Mine was like a father to me (my dad left before I was born). I'm glad I managed to before he passed.
Dan, my sincerest condolences for the loss of your grandfather and your cats. I have 3 cats of my own and I love them all. Outstanding job on these boots! I love watching different cobblers perform great work. I'm an apprentice cobbler, in my second month. I'm about to start stitching, so I appreciate the effort that goes into transforming these boots. Godspeed.
Dan, I am so sorry for the loss of your grandparent. They leave holes in our lives when they are gone that time may soften the edges of but can never be filled. I am also sad. to hear about the loss of your Feline family members. No words can ever make these losses suck less. Your channel and content have had an impact. You helped me re-awaken my shoe care skills and values my departed da drilled into me in my youth. I resurrected his 1940s shoe valet, stocked it with Saphir products, and have found a lot of pleasure in properly caring for my footwear again. Going to treat myself to some higher-end oxfords this season and would love to send them to you for toe plates. Cheers and well done sir!
When you first showed the outsole I thought it was hideous and couldn't believe that color even existed, but once it was on and polished it looked amazing. The green and wood look of the leather worked together perfectly.
Dan - My condolences for your losses. Losing family members, including the furry ones can be very tough, especially if the events cluster together. I lost two of my furry family during lockdown, which incidentally is around when I found your channel. May you and your family find comfort. P.S. Congratulations Carla on passing your drivers test...now you get to shuttle others around!
Sorry to hear about your family and fur family. You bring such an interesting joy to me while I watch your videos. I know others feel the same as I do and hopefully knowing that you make so many others happy with your content helps you to heal.
Good morning Dan, sorry to hear of your loss. You sir are a true artist and craftsman. I do like your stitching machine. Thanks for a great Sunday morning video. Take care and good luck. Have a great week.
My condolences, I lost plenty of people including my dad, but loosing my grandfather took the longest to come to terms with for me. And the cats, so sorry, best animals on the planet. On a brighter note, thanks for a new video, Sunday with a cobbler Dan is always very cosy day, especially when it's a cold day.
Sorry for your losses Dan. Outstanding job as always on these shoes. Congratulations, Camera Carla on passing your driver's test! As always, it's a treat to watch your videos! Take care!
I was never interested in cobbling before watching your videos and a large part of what has kept me watching is your consistently lighthearted and upbeat vibe, so it sucks to hear you had to go through some things that would have anyone feeling anything but lighthearted and upbeat. Glad to see your back in better spirits and I hope your luck stays for the better.
Condolences to you and the family Dan sorry to hear about your loss take your time coming back us subscribers can and will wait for your videos when your ready ❤
Sorry for your losses, Dan. I lost my Nana this past August, it's tough. Your videos are a great comfort to me, and I hope knowing that brings you some comfort of your own. 💜 Side note, LOVED seeing Dan give Dan a thumbs up as they worked on shoes together! Good stuff.
My prayers go out to you, @Dan the cobbler. Losing a parent or grandparent is hard, and losing a fur baby is just as hard. Take all the time you need to get new videos out, I understand you can't take time from work to grieve. It's great you are keeping something of your grandpa with you
Hi Dan, I went to military school when I was 13. I'm 45 now. But when I was there some of us really went all into shining our shoes. I would do 1.5 to 2 hours per shoe, per week. I'd use water, a t-shirt, a lighter and cotton balls. Most of the magic would happen with the twisted up cotton balls. Each shoe would have a full mirror finish when I was done. We'd walk around campus very careful not to get any scuffs. But it was inevitable after a few days. Any light touch was a scuff. Anyhow, I just love watching your videos and always wonder what critique i'd imagine you'd give my 15 year old self when I was there shining away. Or maybe we could have a shine-off :) Keep them coming. You are one of a kind.
Dan, I could go broke letting you customize my shoes with JR leather soles, dannite, sole, mod-sole dying, etc. Absolutely nothing wrong with the soles on any of them, but dang! You make me want to tweak with different colors and stitching. Awesome work from an awesome person! Also, so sorry to hear about your grandfather and your pets. Both are so hard to go through. Thoughts and prayers your way, my friend!
Condolences Dan, sounds like you needed a break from filming. Congratulations to Carla for passing her driving test though, it’s nice to end on a high note. And wow what a difference in those boots! So much better. Keep up the great work 👍🏼.
First: I'm so sorry for your losses, Dan. So many at once is so hard to cope with. Hugs. Second: Good on ya, Carla! YAY!!!! That's an accomplishment. Third: Excellent repair as usual. The boots look wonderful.
Condolences to you and your family. The heel block is the one thing I do not like about my Thursday boots. Have been thinking about getting them replaced. Beautiful repair/alteration you did!
Condolences Dan to you and your family. I enjoy your videos immensely. I find them to be fun to watch and relaxing too. I’ve recently become a fan of Dainite soles. First saw them on your channel. I have a pair of custom Mexican made cowboy boots that I ordered with a “crepe” sole about 14 years ago. The sole became hard and slippery. I took them to my local cobbler (few and far between in North Dakota) and asked him if he’d order Dainite soles for them. He went to his back room and came back with a pair that he’d ordered a few years ago. Anyway, they transformed the boots. Extremely comfortable, good traction, and work well in the saddle. Don’t feel like they’ll hang up in a stirrup. Thanks for your channel!!
You always do a fantastic job, and this was no exception. You fixed the thing that I absolutely hate about every pair of Thursdays I own. The heel is too high IMHO and I feel exactly as your customer does that they should come out of the factory the way you made them. Thanks for the video and letting me know that I am not alone in my feelings about the tilt.
You don't know what you don't know until you get them and wear them especially when you try other heritage boots that are not such a high heel stack. Everything elese about Thursday I do really like just not the heel stack. Perhaps uncomfortable is a bit much. Could say just not ideal for me.@johnnunn8688
I am so sorry to hear about your grandfather and your little furrys, my condolences to you and your family. And it's nice to hear you got something to remember him, it helped me as well to hold onto some of my grandparents belongings. I really enjoy your videos and I'm just happy whenever a new one cames out, so please don't feel pressured :) Oh and congrats to Carla!! High five from an random internet stranger🎉
Sorry to hear about your Grandad and cats I’ve lost 2 cats this year one 9 year old to an undiagnosed heart condition and 16 year old to old age it’s so hard loosing any family member human or pets xx
Dan, really nice work and I especially like the choice of the leather mid sole makes the shoe look really great. Well done. PS three cheers for Carla getting her driving license!
Well crap! When it rains it pours. Sorry to hear. :( And at around 3:42 you can really see the point you make about the last bending over, or flattening, the nails when they're driven in. Unless I'm looking at things wrong. Also, you should've reused the old heal block! :D What I like most about Dainite heal blocks is how happy they are to be apart of the process. ( pause at 16:27 ;) ) And congrats, Carla!
"You should've saved the old heel block."
😂😂😂
Ruined my weekend!
I know how you feel about losing a grandparent. I am currently watching my grandfather go downhill myself and its a very big toll on my mental stability. He has been a big part of my life. My Condolences to your Family.
Thank you so much

You really transformed these boots. They looked 100x better.

I love watching different cobblers perform great work. I'm an apprentice cobbler, in my second month. I'm about to start stitching, so I appreciate the effort that goes into transforming these boots.

Thanks and awesome to hear! Good luck with the stitching it’s easy enough when you figure out you’re own technique

Thank you Steve appreciate it! Wonderful to hear you’ve had an interest in your dad’s shoe care kit again, happy to help with the toe plates any time!
Great job, as always. I'm sorry to hear about your losses, Dan. Carla, congratulations on passing your driver's test.
Hello Dan!! I’m so happy to see a new video 😊😊🤘🏻🤘🏻👞👞
I am so sorry about all the loss you have suffered 😢
Thanks Kristen, great to see you still here!
When you first showed the outsole I thought it was hideous and couldn't believe that color even existed, but once it was on and polished it looked amazing. The green and wood look of the leather worked together perfectly.
Sorry for your losses Dan. It’s never easy losing a family member, or fur babies! Congratulations Carla. Stay safe.
The drab green and leather sole really look good together
So sorry for your grandfather and for your cats, congrats Carla.

Well done Carla!
Grand parents and cats..... Truly some of gods gifts.... Heartbreaking
First! Let’s get sticky!!
Great work as always Dan.
Should have reused the old heel block. See? You can’t win. But how’s the beer, though? 😜
I’m sorry for your loss Dan. Such a tragedy 😔
I wanna learn how you duplicated yourself to work on the other shoe at the same time.
Great work Sir.
my condolences for your loss.
Took a while and I had to beat the shi$ out of my thursday boot heels but they finally wore in. Love them. They are awesome boots
Thanks for the new video Dan. Still one of my channels. Sorry for your losses.
