Vintage Brooks Leather jacket restored.

This old jacket had some issues we had to deal with. Replaced couple of worn out panels. Once we took it apart, it was apparent that it needed more work then planned. As usually we had to do what we had to do.

Still find it "Jaw Dropping," watching you take apart anything, and do it with complete confidence in knowing you can make it better ! Thanks for the video Steve !

[@TYMWLTL]

Your talent is worth every penny. Restoring a jacket like this is a priceless in my opinion.

[@Paul_Lane]

A true craftsman won’t let poor work pass through his shop without fixing it. Especially a craftsman of your caliber. One can see you have passion for your work. Great repair and great video. One could even say you restored that jacket.

[@robertschoen2836]

What a beautiful repair for a much-loved jacket that's seen many miles over two generations. It's now in great shape when it's passed on to a lucky 3rd generation rider!

[@porkorosso7885]

Hi Steve! 👋 I love my leather A2 jacket. Great project, well done. I knew you would replace the zippers! Cheers buddy.

[@pma7675]

Such a joy to see a talented person make something with their hands.

[@alexanderm8892]

Love the story about the roofer and upside down roof tiles.

[@imacmanx8562]

What a great repair to a piece of family history. It's seen many, many miles, and many countries......hope it sees many more. Great job Steve, as usual!

[@jeanhawken4482]

I so love your work. It is a real privilege to watch a master craftsman. Thank you

[@dreamingfool2]

The amount of experience and confidence you have in your work is amazing.

[@krenwregget7667]

I really appreciate that you take the time and effort to do things "the right way", it speaks to your integrity as a craftsman and a person. Fantastic job, as expected.

[@johncampbell829]

True that! It also speaks to his wife's integrity when she bakes cookies....and changes the cat litter....and brings him a beer....what the fuck ever

[@jawedalam1442]

Your patience level is commendable

[@Brian-Burke]

Steve, that's a great point about not doing something you normally wouldn't do at a customer's request. Then you'd have stuff out there that wasn't up to your standards and no one would know the customer insisted you do it that way. You'd be the guy who slapped patches on through the liner. Great work. I knew you'd replace the zipper.

[@adamoscarson69]

I love that it kept that worn look to it. So much history in that jacket. I bet the owner was blown away by the restoration.

[@marka.schlueter9918]

Loved the way you kept the patina of the old but improved it with new stitching and panels. Looks loved and cherished. Great job.

[@evilldead6824]

That’s the sign of a masterfully done restoration. You can’t tell where the new leather is. Amazing matching the new with the old. The guys gonna love it.

[@nigelcouch6225]

Another amazing repair 😃😃 great to watch a skilled craftsmen at work and specially one that actually cares about the proper way of doing things!! 😃😃

[@danasixty4012]

You never seize to amaze me , outstanding Craftsmanship . Steve O 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@lynnfletcher3298]

Beautiful work! I have over 50 years as a professional seamstress. Specializing in alterations. My work ethic is the same as you. Do it right!

[@mojoxide]

Holy smokes. I bet his reaction was priceless, just like your work, your ethic.

[@a.l.newsome7395]

Awesome eye and hand work 👍🏾👍🏾 The level of craftsmanship is always “A1” and nothing less than 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆

[@rowlandmogaecho2272]

I had a black leather jacket which I bought in Switzerland and at one stage it was staining my shirts' collars. I was almost giving up on it, until I saw what Steve does. I tried it out buy dyeing the jacket and wall!👌

[@SandipDas30]

That's some mind-blowing craftsmanship.

[@janesmith5871]

Vent elastic--who knew? :) Brilliant work. I love watching you make magic with leather.

[@_sockninja_]

Bless you, Sir. This one really pulled on my heartstrings. I don't know the owner of the jacket but I am so thankful that you went above and beyond for him.

[@binod2065]

you have given that jacket a new life. 👍

[@tygertyger8597]

WOW!!! I would not have thought it possible to rescue this vintage jacket. Great job here by a real craftsman who really cares about the quality of his work.

[@Liz_Dave]

I love that he gave the back story of the jacket

[@sharonh988]

Thanks Steve. You are so darn good.

[@suzanneshowen9969]

Love the sound of the sewing machine! Even got a couple of seconds of “hammer time”😘

[@mpalmer7800]

Steve been my constant friend through all the lockdown of 2020.. I truly love his sense of humor his kind and genuine personality... kept me sane!!! I’ll remember Steve for all my life

[@cathybenson5119]

That jacket is certainly well worn. Seen a lot of miles too. 👍👍👍🇦🇺🇦🇺🦘🦘

[@pmyhill]

Love your attention to detail in everything you do !! 👍👍👍👍👍

[@arturoalvarez4003]

This man is a jack of all leather trade no one comes close to what he can do love seeing his vídeos.

[@krisjonesuk]

I very rarely watch your non-footwear videos, mainly because I dislike Lois Vuitton bags, but it’s nice to see the same care and attention paid to a leather jacket.

[@rob3sixt]

I've known Steve through my grandfather for the better part of 20 years, I've also known many masters of their trades, but have yet to find or know one that is truly on path to be better with each project the way Steve is. Amazing human being with a passion to be a better craftsmen with each project.

[@caroleroseburgh1344]

Hi Steve 🙋🏽. This is another Awesome Job ‼️. Have a awesome day 🙋🏽.

[@tiptopup602]

Stickler for detail, as usual. Exactly what I need after a mediocre day. Sharpens me up. Great video.

[@mykeg2401]

Love the sound of leather. Great video.

[@jerrieyum]

Oh yayay! Steve’s got another banger for us. Jacket from 1974 to 2021 and beyond baby!

[@user-po6nf2ne1u]

Wow! This is extremely educational! You are certainly a true craftsman.

[@sheldonkelly5020]

You are through, detail and super considerate. I have a project that I will have you work on. You are the boss! Love what you do! You are the BEST!

[@wandagrayson646]

Such a joy to see such workmanship. Thanks for sharing.

[@tamb1608]

Top shelf work as always, sir. Thank you.

[@jawedalam1442]

You're honest, you will always remain happy,stay blessed.

[@ethan073]

I had a hard time imagining how that jacket could be restored because it was in such rough shape, but wow… somehow you made it look new while still maintaining its history. Gotta love watching a master craftsman at work.

[@tamiz8895]

That is so amazing, what you do. What a lucky customer to have this repaired by you.

[@bhgemini]

Wow! I wasn't sure how nice that would turn out. Looks great and still retains its character.

[@lindacucchiara2187]

I knew you'd replace sipper. You're a perfectionists! Love when work is done right. Great job 👏👍👌

[@seashore2768]

You always make it look easy (I know it’s not) I was laughing and answering you when you said “Did you think I was going to leave the old zipper in” I said “of course not” hahahaha

[@thebiggerbyte5991]

Beautiful work. A joy to watch.

[@peterhallock9486]

Steve 👍 really enjoyed the leathers restoration. Two thumbs up!!.

[@omarroa811]

Oh, yeah! That jacket has history!... Excellent job Master Steve 👍

[@greasy7494]

I loved the analogy you used with the roofer Steve! Again Steve, nice work!

[@flipflopsguy8868]

God Bless Working Hands !

[@markgibbins4143]

Quality workmanship 👌

[@rocket5557]

You are a true craftsman! It was a pleasure to watch you work.

[@lethertek]

Excellent clean work! Been doing this same work since 1980.

[@RobBread1]

That's so amazing Steve. This is the kind of video I pay special attention to. You're such a great craftsman.

[@MAINECOONLADY]

Very, very impressive to see quality & dedicated craftsmanship & pride in custom work detail!!! My first time watching you work! Hats off to you for being an ethical, high quality craftsman!!!

[@lyndonchasse4164]

The Jacket videos are my favorites!

[@Czechbound]

That was very good. When I think of a favourite leather jacket that I gave to the charity shop as I thought it couldn't be brought back to life. I should have sent it here ! These repairing skills are the ultimate GREEN skills, as they help to prolong the life of shoes and coats.

[@gusespe4458]

That was worth every penny and then sum , Great workmanship !!!!

[@micheler950]

Looks fabulous!

[@ferd.6779]

Good repair! I loved the 'zipper' story and the things worth knowing about it! thanks for sharing ;-))

[@damiandavies4632]

I like the, "Did you think I was going to leave that zipper there?" I love these when I'm working in my office on my laptop, I watch these on my desktop.

[@deepcover9894]

Great job, as always, Steve and a truly magnificent watch!

[@artnandez]

“Did you think I was going to leave the old zipper there?” I think anyone who has seen your past videos and amazing craftsmanship knew that you were going to go above and beyond as always and replace them! Lol. Amazing work as always!!!!

[@lonewolftrading2]

Keeping the memories (miles) going......priceless......lets contine. Awesome repair Steve. I had no doubt you were going to replace the slevee zippers. You are a master of your craft. AJ

[@LowPlainsDrifter60]

Great job.Cool jacket too with a lot of history & character.👍

[@marwanal-mukhtar2708]

Great job Steve!!!

[@Dibxmonkey]

Very interesting. I like learning about the process as you go. I sorta wish you replaced that shoulder panel with the same color as the patch was. I liked it as an accent.

[@benfoust7424]

Superman strikes again!!!

[@nartarlyiatremaynne1239]

Beyond fabulous. You are very clever. To bring this jacket back to life is a miracle. Australia.

[@anycaliber9086]

As always your amazing Steve I love it my friend great job can't get enough of your channel I could watch 20 videos a day of you God bless you and have a great week my friend.

[@James-3000]

Stitching patches the right way! I've had jackets where the guy stitched through the lining...not only does it not look good, it can alter how the lining sits and leave it sorta bunchy in places. Didn't exactly ruin the jacket, but still...leeeeet's continue!

[@JC-cm9bn]

It's 3:20 Arizona time and I'm waking up to a Steve video, it's going to be a good day! Let's coat-inue?🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@bobfallis]

LOL, from AZ as well and watched this just before work. Gonna be another hot one out here today.

[@JC-cm9bn]

@@bobfallis But it's a dry heat!😅😅🥵🥵

[@suejenkins1421]

Hi Steve what a wonderful job you did on the jacket, the story behind it is heart warming thanks for another awesome video god bless xxx❤️❤️

[@nathandkreosote9917]

Been waiting to see another leather jacket

[@lisachayra01]

You’re a great craftsman!

[@Viper1392000]

Great work, always enjoy your attention to detail.

[@Native_love]

Dude, (Mr. Master Craftsman S. Bedo) I love your videos! Your commentary and attention to detail is awesome! I do leatherwork for fun. One day I hope to have 1% of your skill! Thank you! K.

[@15411]

[@zpt-pi2zr]

Great job Steve, I love your awesome work and attention to detail. Now I know how to properly stitch a patch which this is the first time I’ve ever seen it being done, thank you and keep sharing your educationally.AWSOME VIDEOS. Now for some coffee “LETS CONTINUE” 👍☕️👍

[@gospel2dgeek]

That roofer story really got to me. Turns out, the customer isn't always right.

[@carmenmunoz8623]

I really appreciate the sewing. Skilled and enjoyed learning about elastic inside back... Helpful information.

[@lotsabirds]

Absolutely Great Work! I used to sell boyt luggage years ago. Sold Hartmann too. I think about 10 years ago, Hartmann bought boyt ..anyway...its been about 30 years since I was in the luggage and leather goods business. Thanks for the memories. Those zipper pulls were vintage!

[@teresawillis8128]

You did a great job on this jacket. Your work was worth more than you originally quoted to us. I really admire your work! And thanks for the laughs.

[@natemillsap7279]

17:13 ... it is moments like this that sets you apart. Yeah, we knew you would fix those zippers, but love the personality and genuine kidding nature - makes for a fun watch.

[@Thisbajabug]

Great work as always...

[@jamnican2250]

Always amazing to watch you work, One of my absolute favorite you tubers. Have an amazing week!

[@johnnyjohnny7204]

GREAT work! i've lots of leather military and moto jackets and very happy to have found someone i know can do the best job possible if restoration is needed! will keep your info.

[@malcolmlane-ley2044]

I can't believe how quickly 22 minutes just passed, I was completely engrossed in your fine craftsmanship. The result is visually stunning but also the safety benefit the customer has now derived has made his $450 even better value if he is ever unfortunate enough to be sliding across the tarmac his jacket will stay in one piece to protect him, like it should.

[@kartopfelsalat4659]

Amazing job!
