a very dear friend was a shoe maker many many years ago, he passed away over 35 years ago, but his handiwork always amazed me and as I watch you repair shoes it makes me remember him in his shop toiling away and making old shoes new again. thank you for the videos you do it brings back such happy memories for me. and yes I learn a thing or two to boot!

I have always liked Steve's appreciation of small things like birds waking up. It must beat the hell out of bombs and gun fire in Beirut he experienced in his youth. That was a phenomenal restoration. I wondered if the cross hatch leather would be too heavily coated to accept the various conditioners and color. I guess not. Great job! I have to say though, remarkable knife skills and all that is used is a utility knife. Wow!

@@ticctaccGood news is that you can learn a lot by watching his videos, no telling how many virtual ‘apprentices’ he has that he’ll probably never meet. His name and craft will never fully end with him because of what he’s shared with the world. There’s something transcendent and beautiful about that imo.

I have not met Steve but it is definitely on my bucket list to travel from Florida to Falls Church, Virginia and visit Steve & Bedo's Leatherworks. I will make it happen very soon too!

As someone who’s a beginning, apprenticing cobbler, I LOVE your videos. We’re CRUSHED with work just like you are, and I feel guilty there’s not more I can do because I’m only learning. Lots of lady’s heels and polishing for me currently, but watching your videos gives me knowledge and perspective that is similar and/or additional to what my cobbler mentor is teaching me. I went to six different cobblers who all said no to teaching me before I found this current place. I think there is a section of older, cranky guys who don’t want to train a newer generation combined with the shear AMOUNT of work that needs to be done and another section of old timers who simply don’t feel they have TIME to train, which both isn’t helping the industry, in my opinion. Thank you for your hard work and your videos, because they’re invaluable to me and future cobblers. 🙏🏻

I’m 56 and when I first started school my Dad had me a pair of shoes made by our local cobbler and I was amazed at those shoes. He would take them along with my brother and sisters shoes to have them repaired. To me it was special, and today I think it’s a privilege to have a cobbler repair my shoes.

I'm not a cobbler. I've never owned a pair of shoes that was nice enough to warrant rebuilding when they wear out. I still watch your videos because they are interesting and because the level of detail you employ appeals to me as a craftsman. You're doing a great job for your customers and on your video presentation. Thank you for sharing your craft.

"We are living in an age of abundance, why not share the wealth" is a great quote, I'm saving that my collection of good quotes. Switching gears, I just figured something out. Folks ask - "why spend $'s repairing when you can buy new for the same or similar money?" My grandfather restored Model A Fords. He put more money into them then he would ever get selling them (especially in his labor), and far more than what a new car would cost. So why did he do it? To preserve history, to have something unusual, something different. I think there are many parallels between restoring old cars and restoring old shoes. A new pair of shoes are a new pair of shoes. A rebuilt / restored pair is a piece of history! Thanks for keeping history alive Steve!

I started watching your videos just for entertainment and out of curiosity some years ago. At that time I started working at a bank, so I had to wear a suit and dress shoes every day. When the first repairs on my shoes had to be done, I tried doing them on my own, based on the things I learned from you and your videos (basic heel repair etc.). Some time later I bought an old outsolestitcher and tried more complicated repairs. Today I`m doing everything shoe related on my own, including resoles, new insoles, rewelting on shoes I bought used and all of that is only possible because of you and your videos. Thank you for all the work you put into them and for teaching me and many others.

Another amazing restoration job! I am writing from South Louisiana. I started watching your videos years ago. I found you while searching for information on shoe cleaning. I was buying higher end used shoes to sell on eBay, and I wanted to make sure I was cleaning them correctly. I was an instant fan and subscribed immediately. Fast forward to March 2023, about 2 months ago, when I landed my dream job. I am now sewing handbags from wild, Louisiana alligator hides. We use cow leathers and pig suede for the linings. I've never worked with leather, and I am fascinated by the entire process. We also take in repairs, and I always ask myself, "What would Steve do?" Thank you for the amazing, informative videos. And thank you for the tour of your shop. I can truly appreciate the work you are doing. Your love for your craft is evident in everything you do.

Steve, I am not a cobbler, never will be. (My dad did leather work as a hobby, but he never got a chance to pass it on. He passed the week after he retired. His was more in the way of belt, harness, and wallet work, since that's what he learned from the late Eli Miller of Mesopotamia, Ohio.) But your channel helps me take care of my shoes and leather goods better. Plus, knowledge is power. You demonstrate the basic knowledge, and if I need or want to, I can build on it. Some may take enjoyment from seeing the process, others might find tips and tricks for their own business, some are probably just curious. You are sharing and curating a trade and skills that need to be remembered. Sort of like the British Pathé films, but more in depth and no annoying music cluttering up the video. P. S. It's none of my business, but I noticed your hands shake. I suffer from Essential Tremor, so there are times that I can thread a Landis while it's running at full speed. Whatever is up with that, I hope your health is good and remains that way for a long long time.

Steve, I hope you will see this message. I fell asleep last night to the tv on, and woke up very early this morning to this video playing. I have no idea why it was playing. I’m an archaeologist. Far from being a cobbler. I opened my eyes to watch, and you took a moment to talk to us about what you do and why you do it. You talked about loving what you do, and how our lives can end in a couple of minutes, and if you don’t love what you do, then get out and find something else. I’m 55 now and for most of my career I’ve been happy. I’ve loved my job. Until the last three years. I am now working for a company that I despise. I was duped in my interview, and I got lied to. I was made promises that did not happen. I hate going to work every day. I despise the unscrupulous owner of the company. This job is making me sick. For the last year I’ve been looking for something else, but there is nothing in my area. I even looked into jobs outside my field but nothing. I’m not sure what I’m going to do, but your message in this video was a confirmation that I absolutely need to get out of there. I cannot bear it anymore. I’m subscribing now and I look forward to watching more of your videos. It’s fascinating to watch! Thank you! 🙏🏻

I'm not a cobbler, but I love all your explanations.

Recently did my first partial resole. It's not perfect, but I know I didn't destroy my boots either. That was gleaned from your videos. And that's all ignoring the fact that your channel is down right interesting, entertaining, informative, and relaxing.

Its made from Reindeer Hides . They make imitation Leather of this nowadays,as original Supply has dried up! 😢 They were very expensive! In the old days the Tannig Process was a very rigidly guarded secret!Kind Greetings!

Hi Steve sorry for the late comment, if you want those little friend to be in your backyard, just install a bird feeder, I did here and they are always signing, now they stay put when I move in the backyard because they know I will not hurt them. Soon they will be perching on my finger. Great video as always. Tks so much for that.

There should be more than just a like button on your channel Steve. There should be a LOVE button because you also share life philosophy like what you shared on this video which is sharing the abundance. IMHO sharing wealth of information is a way to build ones legacy, and like what you mentioned life can end in a minute. Thank you for sharing this video and your sharing philosophy. I love your channel, I love the work you put out and the dedication that goes along with it. Cheers and "Let's continue"...

As I mentioned In our conversation on Instagram, you are an inspiration and why I will get into leatherwork, not necessarily working on shoes as I don't have the funds to set up shop, don't take this the wrong way, I don't mind because you don't need tens of thousands to set up a humble workshop. It's seeing what you can do with the materials that caught my attention. I'm older than you Steve so the way you go about life I mean your attitude so got me thinking so you might even have changed someone's life through your channel. So for 3 or 4 hundred you can get yourself pretty well tooled up to start a new life and as you said do it because you enjoy it. I liked this little change in this show Steve I like it when you start to show the true skills you have, it's good to see you challenged. And I'm not kissing ass here I'm only being honest. All the best from Scotland
