Christian Louboutin Upgraded to JR soles.

[@howdepressing2495]

The red pinstripe was a unique idea

[@robioavion]

What an honour to have the man that I've watched for years and that I've admired finally work on my only pair of dress shoes! Steve, I cannot thank you enough. I look forward to growing old with these shoes and returning to the video to watch how they were re-crafted... maybe one day pass the pair onto my son. Appreciatively, J. Boadi P.S. I will try my best to find a cobbler as good as you here in Ontario and within Canada. Thank you for encouraging us to spend money locally, however our only hope is that the customer service and overall outcome is as good as what you have offered. EDIT: For those that are wondering why I would send CLs to Steve even after paying for them at their retail price: It was an impulsive purchase back in 2017 and since then I’ve only worn the shoe twice. As I’ve gotten older, Ive realized that I am not a fan of wearing items that are too noticeable to the average individual; especially if others that know what I’m wearing costs thousands of dollars. Hated the pointing and attention the shoes got when walking down the street.

[@BedosLeatherworksLLC]

It was my PLEASURE

[@sparklefarter]

What you've spoken is exactly my sentiment! I too live in Ontario so it'd be greatly appreciated to share who it is if you do ever find a great cobbler locally! Your pair turned out beautifully, especially with the attention to detail Steve added.

[@robioavion]

Joyce L Thank you Joyce. I simply cannot wait to wear them especially now that they are not so “loud” and “in your face”. Hope you have a wonderful day 😊

[@sparklefarter]

@@robioavion Haha, yes! Enjoy them in the best of health! Thanks, you too!

[@justanotherperson584]

J. Boadi aweeeee good for you enjoy them!

[@okjoe5561]

It's good to say what the price is. That way people who can only afford around $30 won't bother asking for a quote.

[@adamfitch965]

Every video is you outdoing yourself. More than just a resole, this makes them unique.

[@frankbiz]

Christian Louboutin can learn a lot from you, what you did blows what was the original shoe into a much better looking shoe that will last longer. Great job as always. 👍🏻

[@lindseystyles5232]

Love that you share prices! Honestly, I don’t follow anyone that does not share prices.

[@krenwregget7667]

that red border on the sole is a fantastic, subtle nod to the original. Great work as always.

[@canudeiro]

Steve, such a humble man...recommending you to go to your local cobbler to re-establish the local market. That's a nice message.

[@cre8ative]

I am a cobbler from Sydney Australia and seeing you transform that red sole to JR sole natural look with the red touch was something I can adopt and suggest to my customers thank you for the great idea

[@BedosLeatherworksLLC]

Gus H my pleasure

[@Mister006]

The fundamental aspect of Louboutin shoes is the red sole. After seeing at the before you started work on them how horrible they wear, I understand the customer's desire to keep it natural. The red touches nicely keep the spirit of a Louboutin shoe!

[@bucknut2000]

I see a lot of people put some sort of clear or red pad underneath if they want to keep it red.

[@y4nnickschmitt]

I didnt find the sole to be worn out at all.... Just lost some of the lacquer.

[@theprepperrevelator]

Fabulous job! I think it’s smart to give your price, it keeps the phone from ringing with people wasting your time looking for cheap work. You do quality work and you deserve to get paid a fair wage!

[@dawn5227]

Whats nice about the work you do Steve, is the quality and full attention to detail. You never just get a job and do the basic, you always go above and beyond. You fulfill your clients brief but still add a unique, handcrafted and thoroughly beautiful work at the end. There's no scrapping by, making do. You only create the best of the best. Often your work is far superior to that of anything done by the manufacturer

[@Crackers2549]

No job too big or too small or too difficult for you Steveroo...! When it comes to leather, you could fix anything..! Love watching you work buddy, you're a true MASTER...! Greg, Indiana

[@panampia]

Steve, your talent is undeniable. Your caring heart is the icing on the cake. You touched my heart on the outro. Gratitude is so important, and you are a great example. Thank you for your videos and your commentary.

[@WarpFactor999]

Beautiful work Steve. You are honest enough to say what your prices are. You aren't cheap, but you do exquisite work. True to the old adage that you get what you pay for...In your case, indeed its true. The fact that you threw the local cobbler's a bone was a great kindness good sir.

[@Ozhull]

I love the way you are so open with your pricing. Totally unnecessary but so insightful. Much appreciated, I watch your videos immediately upon release.

[@BeinAwesome]

You should dissect more of these high fashion brand shoes

[@BeinAwesome]

also another cool idea would have been a single red screw in the gold plate at the bottom, the dovetail was a brilliant touch either way

[@deniselovan1375]

You're truly a craftsman, someone who really cares about what he produces!

[@David_Jr]

What you said about supporting local cobblers is really classy!

[@VincentGroenewold]

Really like the red line touch as a hint to the past of the shoe. Superb job yet again!

[@tonygloster8829]

Morning Steve superb work once again the little touch of red was an excellent finish 👍 also Steve telling people to use there local cobbler during these troubled times was a touch of class from you it shows what a great man you are 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@highlevelpilot975]

Great channel. Great work. Very considerate of you to shoutout all local cobblers, had not thought of it, but going to send a couple of pairs their way this week.

[@kennethconnors5316]

Steve you are the kind of man we watch because you are a normal good guy

[@sarahjames1143]

those soles look stunning , I love the idea of the red stripes, it subtle.

[@aylinyilmaz4031]

Thank you for sharing the prices! Your time is valuable.

[@mikemarin77]

Really like what you did with the pinstripe and the dovetail heels...wow!

[@jerrygeorgopolis8015]

Nice work Steve ! I was surprised that the customer wanted toe plates, because I have not seen them on shoes for years...thanks for the video.

[@caroleroseburgh1344]

Hi Steve 🖐🏼. Once Again A Awesome Amazing Beautiful Job. And you're right, every Town has A cobbler shop. ......... But We Don't Have You ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️ UNFORTUNATELY ‼️ HAVE A AWESOME AMAZING WONDERFUL BEAUTIFUL BLESSED DAY ‼️🙋🏿‍♀️💕♥️💖💖👌👍✔️💯💯💯💯.

[@BedosLeatherworksLLC]

👍👍❤️❤️❤️

[@BobbyBoydBravo]

You are the norm abrams of shoe restoration. A real master craftsman

[@anangelshero0410]

Steve is a stand up guy for putting out his PSA to help other cobblers. I do a combination of mailing orders and local repairs. My local guy (in Germany) is a 'Meister', but his crafting has left much to be desired. I'm going to share Steve's channel and a few others with him, and see if he's open to doing things to my expectations. If not then 'oh well'...

[@tedgreene9914]

Thumbs up! Dunno why, this never gets old!

[@baortiz25]

I love that you share your prices!! Your worth it.

[@wadecashman4466]

Your videos are my goto help on shoe repair. They are very helpful to do the job right. And I think its great that your giving your prices on repairs. Thank you Cashman Custom Leather & Repair

[@zpt-pi2zr]

Awsome "touch of class" Steve, you did a great job integrating the red into the soles which makes them one of a kind, Awsome!

[@RyuukiCho]

these look amazing

[@mysettingsmysettings2997]

Love how you kept the red alive on the soles.fab

[@yankeesfanforlife506]

Wow! Great job! . The red stripe was a thoughtful and unique touch 👍🏼

[@skylarmoon6381]

I like when you fix the purses

[@Paul_Lane]

Beautifully sculpted sole. The red line and insert are great nods to the shoes origin. Thanks again for an entertaining and informative video.

[@suzismith9681]

What a gentle referb, with the tiny bit of red. ....I just knew Steve would do some piping on a shoe at some point. They came out great . Bet the customer will enjoy those. Especially with the red highlights around the outside edge. Master craftsman strikes again

[@robioavion]

I cannot wait to get them in the mail! I'm already excited. Thanks for the comment.

[@liamreal1]

Thanks for sharing Steve. Nice appeal to support local cobblers!

[@muppetsshowupatspeakerscor579]

Wow that is a incredible job Steve love that touch of red.

[@andrewwilliston5798]

I think your right about pricing, people need to know what price point they should expect for the type of work you do.

[@robertlassiter5808]

This was a very satisfying and pleasurable video, Steve. The little piece of red in the dovetail was a nice touch. I never cease to be amazed by the way these shoes turn out. Thank you Steve for another new favorite resole! Love ya Dude.

[@theoldbigmoose]

Its those little artistic things that Steve does that takes his work to the highest level!

[@robertlassiter5808]

theBigMoose I concur with that assessment.

[@closertothetruth9209]

ahh you knew, i was thinking fiddle back hammer was too quiet and was looking forward to hammer time at the exact time you said grasshopper, your final comments about supporting local businesses was spot on.

[@cherylcooke4308]

Love the red accent on the edge! Great job!

[@twinslotaddicts]

I they look absolutely fabulous and that special dovetail you did with the red leather was SO COOL!!! TYFS

[@RatdogDRB]

Yet another "better than original" repair. The red pin stripe looks much better than the red soles.

[@paulbowes5586]

Steve, another very nice job. I appreciate you sharing the wealth with your compatriots.

[@MrKevonski]

I see you've weaved your magic on the shoes Steve they look brand new now well done.

[@ruschman96]

I really like the red accent, beautiful detail.

[@evelyn_r]

Omg!!! 💖💖💖😱💖💖💖 love your dove block heels with the red accent!

[@bobbibuttons8730]

Amazing, you really caught the essence of the shoes. When I was working and wasn’t disabled or skint I used a bonus to buy a pair of drop dead gorgeous CL stillies and was horrified to see how the soles marked and discoloured. Now I don’t get designer but fabulous quirky shoes that I don’t need to worry about the soles I dearly wish we had a local cobbler, we used to have a fabulous cobbler till he retired. Now all there is within a 20 mile radius at least is chain heel bars 😖

[@patsygrace2561]

NEAT the final read pinstrip on the edge.

[@yt66228]

Love the price reveal. Great video. I am becoming a shoe expert!

[@patsygrace2561]

Love to watch you work....perfection personified. Love your version of dovetail heel.❤️

[@justanotherperson584]

I would never go local. I’d ship them, because I KNOW they would come out awesome. Love the red trim.

[@anjaprachtstueckwerk7546]

I love the red line design! Great job!

[@davidedmonds6427]

Excellent, love the red detail on the soles and dovetail heels.

[@f308gtb1977]

9:31 “No?” My favorite part! You’re the best, Steve!

[@woosha10]

The shoes came up awesome , with the red accent you put in. If they were mine dark soles would have been on point for me . Keep up the good work Steve .

[@eloycavazos2816]

Wow 🤩! Amazing job as always Steve!

[@davidceron3114]

Aways great work n humbling to mention local cobblers!

[@MrLukealbanese]

Lovely work Steve. Soles now far better quality than the uppers!!

[@johngrober6244]

Hammertime 🤣🤣🤣it’s the glue Steve ,thx for the time and video ❤️👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️see you next time .

[@she1440]

Hi Steve, the red detailing on the sole was a lovely little nod to the iconic and trademark red sole. Love and respect to you and yours from the UK 👍

[@duchessofdissent5728]

I loved the red piping.

[@aliloucreations1817]

Gorgeous much better than original sole in my opinion

[@proud_to_be_a_ted]

Nice job that man...much much better with a neutral sole rather than the red. Quality job.

[@xclusivekid123]

I definitely subscribed because I enjoy watching anything hands on.. I myself don’t own a SINGLE pair of dress shoes of any kind but i do OEM a shit ton of sneakers.. But these right here, SHEESH THEY MAKE ME WANT A PAIR.. Without putting them on and have you bless them like this.. 🙌🏼😍🙌🏼

[@amydbwinters]

Louboutin is better made than some but, you definitely upgraded them.

[@Eddy63]

Great little job Steve ... You are indeed a "Sole Man " ... Lol ...

[@josephtaverna1287]

Hey Steve the red stripe really made those shoe pop

[@frankrizzo7185]

Glad you include the costs. Your work is worth it. Generous of you to suggest local cobblers.

[@wayneburba9457]

Very great videos, and thank you for being open and forthright. Honesty is good.

[@michelebaker9620]

I am not sure how I came across your channel or why I even watched a video but I enjoy watching them and I love you I think you have a great sense of humor and are great at what you do. I can tell you have a passion for it no doubt. I am hooked lol🤗 Thanks for sharing you videos 💜👞👡👢👠👜👛 🎒

[@elizabethwilliams1523]

Beautiful work as usual. Loved the pop of red, was not too much of red. Thanks again Steve.

[@McSnacks930]

I think those color edge soles are amazing! Maybe pinstripe is the new sole design idea. That way it matches the suits. I wish there was a way to make it permanent, as that design is so cool!

[@bobbrown5324]

If he were trying to impress he succeeds in spades. But I think he does it for his own pleasure. Which pleases me more. Love this channel.

[@anjaprachtstueckwerk7546]

Oh, I wished my town still had a shoe repair shop. The last one closed down almost 10 years ago. What´s left is taking your shoe repairs to a not shoe related shop that passes them on to some repair place (which is the quick repair kind and delivers poor work at high prices.) Meanwhile I´m my own inhouse shoe repair shop. This way if the repair turns out poor I can always try and make it better or do it again at only the cost of the material and will learn with each sole cover or heel I do.

[@emmyhd7347]

I see you've produced the magic again with these shoes Steve they look brand new.

[@golddustwoman29]

Love to see you add your creativity to every job!

[@unklefocker]

Beautiful work as always, Steve!

[@davidserna5192]

Good job as always Mr.Steve , can you do a video on how you lace the shoes with the horizontal laces

[@WarpFactor999]

Steve, I just watched you work on a pair of boots in a video from Oct 30, 2013. Same great craftsmanship, but a much younger Steve. Your videos have definitely gotten better over the years though.

[@BedosLeatherworksLLC]

WarpFactor999 yes I agree on both points

[@patrickkennedy2533]

I'm glad you say what the charge , if I should ever have to do something like this , ill know what to expect

[@barrymills8597]

Worth every penny Steve.

[@WooliteMammoth]

So many local cobblers take shortcuts and do sloppy jobs. Hard to know whose work to trust especially if you can't look inside the shoe yourself once it's done. We need a Bedo's network! Also, about prices, I like hearing them. Would it be possible to share a breakdown (not for every shoe you do, of course)? Just curious, like the JR soles are X, the fact that it's blind stitch is an extra Y, the french tip is Z. Just curious - I know not every pair is nearly $500, so it would be cool to see what things add cost and if someone wanted a very basic resole how much that would be.

[@ginnysimpson5232]

How nice to think of other cobblers who are really looking for the work.

[@editheden1739]

Looks great. And thanks for sharing the price. Thanks for the vids.

[@coppliable]

The red pinstripe makes the sole

[@DomP1989]

Beautiful work!

[@DoroHiro]

Oooohhh, that red looks awesome!!!

[@annroche3762]

Wow Steve you did a beautiful job on them

[@NicolaP269]

Hi Steve, in this project you have revived a beautiful pair of very expensive Italian shoes leaving your signature as an added value. At what age did you start doing this work? I ask because it shines, and not only from your hands, a long and matured experience.

[@ceebeegeebee]

That red accent is slick.

[@RussellChapman99]

I like your attitude of thinking of others Steve and that was a very good job on those shoes. Would like to see how you hand stitch a resole using the original holes of the blake stitch so the uppers are not destroyed within 3 or 4 resoles.

[@timravo5152]

Beautiful Classy job well executed as usual! ;-) Loved the red pinstripe, understated but sharp...less is more!...Thanks for sharing.

[@albertmyers7176]

Just noticed Shoe Trees in the shoes you just resoled . Did they come to you in the shoes, or did you include them in the repair price ? thank you for the vid.

[@2THGap]

Nice outcome. Cheers.
