Alden Indy Boot Conversion

With these Alden Indy boots the customer wanted to switch from the original sole to a vibram commando sole and convert to a 360 welt. Once we disassembled the shoe down to the welt we removed the 270 welt. We then took the heel loose from the footbed and added a goodyear welt around the heel to make it a 360 welt. To finish it off we added the vibram commando sole and heel.

Love it. Just quiet competence.

Fantastic look for those boots. I loved the way you converted them from a 270 to a 360.

I love seeing the care and attention to detail with the welt ends, making sure they're cut on the angle and stitched close.

Love your videos! Would love to hear your opinions on the quality and construction of these brands. Wish so much that I could be an apprentice, but living in LA 😞. Please keep making more videos! 🙏

Great video. Can you tell me the name of those vibram soles? I tried looking i to vibram catalog but could not find the number of this model. Thanks

[@UnsungHouse]

They're the vibram 2040 sole or the fighter sole.

What grit sandpaper do you use to smooth out the edges of the sole/welt?

[@UnsungHouse]

We start out with 40 grit and then 100 grit on the machine. Then for hand sanding we use 320 then 1500.

Your thoughts on leatherboard versus leather for the midsole?

[@arsenicmickey2206]

Whoa whoa whoa, hold on a minute.... You're telling me you can change the hardware on my Alden Indys even thought that strip of leather is stitched over??? Can we address that issue wholly on its own? Like a vid of just that process. Cuz if you can do that, I'll never ask anyone but you to touch my shoes, ever...

Talk us through what you are doing and why. The music is no replacement for your voice. At best it is annoying. I have tried, but I can't just listen to music without the craftsman/artist input as to what is happening. Good luck.
