Cowboy Boot Restoration | Frye Boots Get a Makeover

[@JorisNoord]

If you would have told me a year ago that I would be a fan of a youtube chanel about shoe repair, I wouldn't have believed you. Yet here we are! Always super excited when a new video is released!

[@ZVERKA13]

The same bro😎👍👞🥃

[@TrentonHeath]

We really appreciate y’all watching! Thank you!!

[@21380]

My story exctly.

[@kaljr82]

I absolutely love watching the process! Tempted to call the local cobbler to see if they’d be interested in me apprenticing.

[@antoniohill4338]

Same here , even restored a few pairs of goodwill shoes myself. Of course I didn’t take them apart but it was still fun !

[@christinaperez254]

One of my favorite videos thus far. Very sweet!!!

[@TrentonHeath]

Thank you, Christina!

[@perebernardo3829]

Wow! Fantastic!

[@bmckin2011]

What boots do you recommend that will have long-lasting quality? Thank you!

[@poogan1239]

I have a pair of Frye's my wife , girlfriend at the time, gave me 11 years ago. They are by far my favorite pair of boots I own I wear them almost exclusively in the winter. The soles are almost completely worn down and the felt on the heel is almost gone. I have considered replacing them, but they are so comfortable I have wondered if anyone could repair them. After seeing this, I will be getting in touch with you all.

[@michaelrania1985]

Why rubber cement instead of the normal glue you usually use on that padding?

[@TrentonHeath]

It makes removal of the padding, upon the next resole, much easier than if we’d used the contact cement we usually use on soles.

[@victorzavala3390]

Nice!!

[@nickhoward5870]

I recently bought a new pair of Dr.Martens and I hate the sole would it be worth it to resolve them

[@Melendon44]

Wow, this is another excellent repair. The owner is going to be super happy with her boots. You guys are second to none. Thank you for sharing your videos with us.

[@TrentonHeath]

You’re too kind. Thank you very much!

[@deborahdanhauer8525]

Yay! I’m glad you have a pair of ladies shoes. They look great as always!🐝🤗❤️

[@TrentonHeath]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed.

[@deborahdanhauer8525]

@@TrentonHeath You’re welcome🐝🤗❤️

[@markmilan01]

Great job on the women’s boots. They practically look new. The quality of the craftsmanship is truly amazing. T&T always killing the game!

[@Cutter-jx3xj]

I live in Comanche Texas and I have soooo many friends who I have grown up with, rode and roped with and out of 100 I can't name you 1 single person, woman or man who wore FRYE Boots.

[@mathewfranco3211]

Honestly I fell like a heel for not saying this earlier but you both have a great sole and keep me in stitches so don’t boot me for this and I’ll shoe my way out. Ps

[@twagenknecht]

@7:36 one can see the precise detailed work these guys do. The fact that they show what may well be a 'trade secret' on how not to mess up a toe welt, is absolutely amazing. This tradecraft sharing is exactly what we all need to further the tribal knowledge that drives us all long. Well done guys, and awesome channel.

[@rfgephart]

As always, great work. I enjoy watching your craftsmanship and the end result. I’m a boot guy so really liked this one.

[@TrentonHeath]

Thanks so much, Ray!

[@lizzard8785]

Why do I suddenly want coffee at 5pm? Such a bad influence

[@calebpike2580]

Do you do heel replacements, as in converting heels to wooden heels on boots. If so, how much would it cost

[@MST720]

KZbin algorithms can be a wonderful thing

[@ВіталійГлапшун]

Many greetings from Ukraine! Thank you for another portion of absolute satisfaction! Great job! Waiting for the next videos... again and again!

[@jameskleist4019]

From the son of a shoe repairman, 👞 I liked what you did for the boots. I myself would have been a shoe repairman myself but my Dad thought I moved to slow, but that is OKAY I learned how to do the job anyway. Learned the leather craft and I have a good hobby. Now I am making a pair of slippers from scratch, using sheepskin and elk leather. I am going to subscribe.

[@Cutter-jx3xj]

I am a cowboy here in north central Texas and by NO MEANS do I think of Frye as a cowboy boot. No way.

[@WoeWoeWoe]

What do you think of when you think of Frye boots?

[@tome.joyner887]

Your channel is mesmerizing and I can hardly stop watching. Love the passion and the quality of your work. I just love the spirit and the down home feeling when I watch you two work!

[@alexlod9564]

Good job. Thanks for video.

[@justinkilmer9205]

Do you charge people to fix their boots?

[@moonlitegirl72]

Well that's a first I was looking at my phone and your notification came over 😂 couldn't hit that button quick enough

[@TrentonHeath]

Well, we really appreciate you taking the time to watch our videos!

[@stylesbitchly9931]

My favorite way to begin my weekend. Drinking a great cup of coffee and watching you gentlemen demonstrating your talents. A true work of art. Cheers!

[@TrentonHeath]

Thank you very much for watching us!

[@derekstocker6661]

Well, this is such a great revelation in boot repairs, what a fantastic job you made of what was probably a fairly good make of boot and you made them like new! Thanks for taking us through the stages of the repair, I would only like to ask, was it more financially better to repair than replace as I know shoe repairs can be very expensive and probably that is why in many cases it is cheaper to buy new and that is probably why so many shoe repairers seem to have gone. Thanks for this, so well done.

[@DarkSevariant]

from Oklahoma Dude Ranch, to Urban Cowboy...in 17 Minutes. Great Work...they Look Stunning...!

[@vitomccartney]

Hey, could you all do a pair of ariats I own? I just bought some Lucchese's, but I've had the Ariats since I was in the military.

[@The_Engineer_Guy]

Guys, please work on the Focusing of the Camera :D Its a bot Hard to watch sometimes. Other than that, amazing work as always!

[@CanaRollcreations]

Would y’all be willing to try my companies CBG infused coffee? Don’t have to advertise. If you like it just add it into the the mix of coffee varieties you use. Coffee on me. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@FrancoisTCS]

Very Good for sustainability and circular economy 👍🏼👍🏼. I also wonder how much, approximately, that would cost in regards to a new pair of boots. Would you be able to share this information, for educational purpose?

[@eonarts]

Loved this video though there was a lot less explaining… what was the black pad you glued on? I am afraid to have my fav cowboy boots resoled as I took my hand made Luccheses into a recommended cobbler. They took twice as long as the ETA ( I hadn’t worn any holes in the soles yet ) I wore them ONCE and they split along the metatarsals! WTF! So my Naconas need a resole. I live in San Francisco where we have a lot of cobblers but I don’t think they get many XX toed cowboy boots!

[@JonBrown-po7he]

Could someone clue me in, what is the benefit of allowing a pair of boots, I paid about $500-$600 for, deqrade to the point they look terrible and the sole is worn through? Cowboy boots have the mystique of the 'rugged' individualist, yet that doesn't mean unique, recourseful people can't maintain a well kept set of foot wear, none the less.

[@DanielMartinez-lz3ot]

I was a little surprised you didn't change out the gimming, but I know bread not shoes.😉 P.S. I was a little surprised I recognized there was gimming on the boot in the first place, I've been watching these videos for a long time.

[@paulfindude8743]

Fellas. I have a brand new pair of Double H cowboy boots. They’re nice and American made. But, the heel arch is way too big and it hurts my foot. I didn’t realize it would be a problem until it was too late. So, now I can’t return them. Question. Are you guys able to reduce the arch on the boot? If so, I would love to send you the boots for repair and hopefully put em in one of your videos. Let me know, please. Thank you.

[@earthangel8730]

These are WESTERN BOOTS. No need to use outdated terms when it's so easy to do the right thing. It was awkward hearing you call these cowboy and cowgirl boots. You're smarter than that.

[@quickfoxxes]

Hello again guys. No need to discriminate between the genders on the use of "Cowboy" or "Cowgirl" boots when you, and the rest of the world, could simply refer them to as "Western" boots, which are worn by both genders. As usual impressive repair work on these.

[@vikingslayer34]

Quick question for the experts: I clean my boots every other week with saddle soap, and then slap on a coat of mink oil. Is that too much? Am I harming the leather by cleaning it too often? Thanks guys, great video as always.

[@aditsuwardi6914]

I like coffee, especially Javanese and Sumatran coffee. the owner of this boot loves his boot so much that the sole of his boot has been eroded. I like this type of boot, for the coconut garden and durian garden I use it for walking. Where's the coffee ( Kopi mana Kopi) ?

[@carlosmartinez2565]

How can I get in contact with you to resole my cowboy boots?

[@de-nice]

Gotta say the quality of this video was lacking. Usually love to watch these as they come out. But this was jump cut to jump cut. We didn't see any of the heels being made. The cutting of the soles. Apparently there was a rubber heel places on. More effort put into the really long ad than the rest of the video. It's shame cause I love you content. I'll of course keep watching... but hopefully this is a one off in what are generally awesome videos.

[@codyleemeece]

Shew buddy I got a pair of white vintage Nocona’s that are nearly this bad

[@FourthDimensionalHillBilly]

I have 2 pair of cowboy boots that I’ve had for years. They need you. You’ll see them soon.

[@Just_the_Q]

Great video. I bet your fingers get sore from hand stitching the welt.

[@TrentonHeath]

Thank you. Yes, it can wear on you. 😁

[@mattlewis8890]

I've got to set up my dad's boots, folks say they can't be repaired. Can I send them to you, they are hard rusted dirty and dry.. they won't be worn again just put up.?

[@robertbartlett151]

The rubber heel came off my son's fairly new six month old cowboy boots, what kind of contact cement or glue do I use put it back on with? I you don't mind.

[@blueduck9409]

I love it. Yes boots are expensive, more expensive than senakers, but they last forever. Leather boots can be rebuilt almost indefinitely. I feel like good leather boots are a better investment. I have a couple pair of Tony Lamas that are over 20 years old and look and wear great.

[@lejester2305]

meh... that's not a coffee, it's translucid, as a french, a good coffee is black as putin's soul et strong enough to make you hear colours and see sounds, and in enough quantity to drink it at least 15 cups a day ^^

[@goodolsouthernboy186]

You just got new subscriber. I love your craftsmanship.

[@mundayoreo]

At 2:18 of the video, you removed the heel block. There were 5 nails holding it in place that appeared to be nailed in from the inside. Did you remove them completely or just cut them?

[@davegreene1198]

I spent many a day watching my uncle repair boots in his Red Wing shoe store in Glenwood MN. Good times

[@frankrizzo7185]

How are Frye Weston chukkas? They seem well made and they fit my feet well. Just wonder if they’re made well.

[@jesusacovarrubias1390]

Damn nice job. I saw some Red Wing Cowboy boots. What’s your opinion on their boots?

[@VikingHill83]

Asking for a thumbs up before the video starts is like a waiter asking for a tip before serving you

[@wwilkins62]

When is a good time to get a resole on cowboy boots or a good indication it’s time? Thank you

[@codymccready4942]

So like… I’m stationed in Germany, any shot I can send you my boots for some fixin? Lol my soles are getting to the point these are.

[@mattd603]

First off i love your channel, my grandfather was a cobbler and it reminds me of him. I have very wide feet 5e what good quality all around / work boots would you recommend. Thanks & God bless Matt.

[@sheet-son]

Reminds me of the time I wanted to send in my Frye boots that were in the same condition until I saw a video where they said to not send in boots in this condition.. oh well I brought them to a local shop instead and they had no problem fixing them up..

[@alvinkoeswanto8622]

Hi Trenton & Heath. What is the advantages and disadvantages of using compressed leather compared to stacked?

[@TrentonHeath]

Stacked leather can be repaired more easily!

[@robertgoshey4876]

Those boots were re-made for walkin'. And that's just what they'll do.

[@dallinostler4794]

what am i missing? im assuming this is expensive process easily over 500$ so why not just buy new boots?

[@Viking_bowhunter]

How much does a resole job like that normally cost? I had a set of double H packers that fell apart on me an I spent probably double what they cost at the shoe repair places in my area just for them to fall apart again in a few weeks to a month.

[@blainefoz1]

I love the videos! I just wish you would show the customers reaction. As long as you have there permissions of course 😉

[@duncan6551]

Need this done bad to Frye lou overlay boots! They discontinued the model unfortunately :/

[@mightymikethebear]

When you showed the camera that the soles had been worn down to the insoles I got a mental image of the owner riding a motorcycle and dragging her feet on the pavement. Yes, I know I am weird. The boots look great now and I hope the owner treats them better in the future.

[@otracuentaperra4290]

Seeing masters at work is therapeutic. Love your work guys.

[@gtmotorsports937]

Can you repair a tear in the bottom side of a pair of Justin Boots? Mines ripped right by the sole.

[@silverfox4055]

I may just have to send my cowboy boots to yall to get the soles repaired. I've been looking for a place to resole them for the past year.

[@notfeedynotlazy]

I like my cowboy boots old and worn out, but that was a _wee_ bit too much...

[@RussellChapman99]

Someone has been skidding their boots, not looking after them at all. Owner is not deserving of nice things.

[@calumkramer]

I wear $30 shoes. Don’t think they are worthy of a cobbler 🤣

[@billyhudson2533]

Beautiful handy work on them lady cowgirl boots!! So sad to see 5.6k views with only 1.5k likes 👍 come on viewers they sure do deserve alot better then that!! Keep it up gentleman!!

[@TrentonHeath]

Thank you sir! We really appreciate it.

[@travismillsjames]

Great job.. can you tell me the type of awl with the hook on it you are using to stitch on the welt? Many Thanks

[@kengraham6288]

Question!!! Can you take a boot that has a roper heel and replace it with a cowboy heel or is the shank set up for a certain height heel?

[@mattsfreshwateraquatics1242]

You guys should start putting the old soles in picture frames for the buyer.

[@jebert327]

You guys turned a $200 pair of cowboy boots into a $1000 pair of cowboy boots

[@batmansprotege1569]

Whats a good cleaner/conditioner for Ariat Cowboy Boots?

[@MrKirby365]

I'm so thankful for my local cobbler.... I have saved more than one pair of boots at this point. And by I, I mean my amazing cobbler! The work you all do is awesome you save people a lot of money and you bring stuff back to life. Reduce Recycle Reuse

[@longrack]

Currently watching this while having a hole through the bottom of my boots 😅

[@cameron6049]

Ive always destroyed the lower before i ever wear the sole out do people just not pick up their feet when they walk?

[@Truffles-fk3du]

What happened to Heath? Did you kick him off the island? ;P

[@MaggieMorrissey1916]

All i can think about is the old irish folk tune, 'dick darby the cobbler'

[@max_deeds]

That was some weak coffee 😂

[@waterhead1359]

Very nice , what would the approximate cost be for this

[@kenmoum162]

That twisted wax thread is like a using a fender washer on a bolt to reinforce sheet metal.

[@markoman5267]

These boots should be taken away from the owner and put up for adoption so they can go to a good home.

[@justinclark6948]

Where can I get my logger boots done at I live in Raleigh North Carolina

[@musclespumpbd8647]

1st and love from Bangladesh

[@TrentonHeath]

Thank you so much for watching!!

[@colleenparsons51]

Your not putting the Cork stuff on the bottom this time that I have seen you use on shoes or other boots why not the cowboy boots?

[@nunyobizkneez]

man, this stuff is so relaxing to watch...as my wife is next to me watching a loud ass horror movie on tv. Great job on these videos! Thank you!

[@Give0002]

to mutch talking....Silent videos are better

[@olekaw8765]

love yalls videos first off , but have yall ever thought about doin a shoe resto and getting the customers reaction?? think that would be awesome , love yalls work keep the vids comin!!

[@tmacfan927]

Love when you post new videos. Great work as always.

[@TrentonHeath]

Thank you!

[@nivesknight]

On average what does it cost for what you did to those boots out of curiosity???

[@wmanthonyphotography]

At 4:43 you use paper towels to wipe off the saddle soap. Is that deliberate? I use a towel.

[@marcelogaea1064]

Fantastic workmanship, you unfailing cobbler gods, you! Today I was offered a $30 discount courtesy of this video from Trade Coffee, fyi.

[@TrentonHeath]

Enjoy!

[@baileysconstruction7898]

What does a repair like this cost? I’ve got a few that need resoled

[@coltknight3945]

Never met a real cowboy/girl who didn't wear their boots down that far. In fact, these are in pretty good shape.

[@TrentonHeath]

😉 Good point

[@colleenparsons51]

How much does all of the replacement cost one, once polished as well, please
