[@WyattDadCobblerCompany]

Thank you!

Thanks for sharing your family history with us. Your brother’s boots look amazing, Cobbler Tony!

[@mountainmystic1]

Beautiful boots and story. Ive taught my teenage boys two things...good enough isn't....and do it right or don't do it at all. That's how you stand behind your work and pass on your legacy of quality first. Keep up the great work gentlemen. When my 8085's are ready for a resole they will make their way down there.

[@WyattDadCobblerCompany]

Couldn't agree more and we've got you covered whenever you're ready!

[@YouShoe-1985]

This video was absolutely brilliant! The concept of re-soling someone’s shoe while they share their life experiences is both unique and deeply engaging. It’s such a creative way to merge storytelling with craftsmanship. I truly hope to see more projects like this in the future-it’s a fantastic blend of art and humanity!

[@WyattDadCobblerCompany]

Thank you! We appreciate the support. Our goal is for this to be one of many like this, diving deeper into the heart of not just what we do, but why we do it.

[@馬伕]

This is the boot to own. Not Thursday.😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@A55-s9d]

Red Wing Iron Ranger seems to be the boot that sets the standard.

[@WyattDadCobblerCompany]

@@A55-s9d they are one of the best for the money

[@chinatownboy7482]

@@WyattDadCobblerCompany It is the boot that other shoes are compared to.

[@danielgambella4305]

Great video! I have watched it a bunch of times, and still learn something new about re crafting. Your vision for a re craft is amazing too!

[@WyattDadCobblerCompany]

Thank you. We appreciate it!

[@sisleymichael]

Outstanding job. Always fun videos.

[@LKS-1976]

Gorgeous boots. Gorgeous patina!!!

[@patrickmiao1698]

Wow, that is a great looking recraft. I can't wait until it is time to recraft my iron ranger.

Another great video and fantastic results. Love the looks of the Iron rangers with all these different soles. Just makes a great boot look phenomenal.

Love the documentary - makes the wait for my re-craft a bit harder but I know I’ll be seeing an amazing transformation! Just a few more weeks!

[@WyattDadCobblerCompany]

We appreciate it! Working hard at recrafting them for you.

[@c5back9]

Beautiful! Mine are still in excellent shape so don’t need anything, but I’m still tempted to send them to you to have them done just like this!

[@miccijrful]

Great job fellas!

Interesting that the glue on the gemming didn' t fail.

[@WyattDadCobblerCompany]

@@馬伕 it doesn’t always fail, but it is rather common on IR’s

[@FraldinhoBJJ]

This whole heritage shoes thing is so cool. One of my bosses at work got his first recraftable pairs of boots. I started telling him about how they can be recrafted and he thinks this stuff is cool too. I think he’s going to start watching your videos too

[@WyattDadCobblerCompany]

Thanks so much! We appreciate the love. It’s fantastic how versatile heritage boots are.

[@ulf373]

I very much enjoyed this production. Thank you. It seems to be that craftsmanship in the US is celebrating growth, while in Europe, especially Germany, shops are closing door because they either don't have a successor who wants to keep running it, or they're too expensive. People prioritize a new phone over decent footwork, or artisan bakery goods or whatnot.

[@WyattDadCobblerCompany]

@@ulf373 the US is currently experiencing similar symptoms. It has gone from over 80,000 shops down to 3,000 in the past 15 years. We are trying to create awareness of the trade so that both clientele and tradesmen want to learn more and revitalize the industry

[@ulf373]

@@WyattDadCobblerCompany thank you for the effort. I much prefer to know who owns the shop, and their employees, and their love for the craft, than going with industry garbage.

[@WyattDadCobblerCompany]

@@Thunk00 thanks!

[@mehmd1913]

So can you double layer cork in the IRs and how do you prevent squeaks between the layers of cork?

[@WyattDadCobblerCompany]

@@mehmd1913 we glue each layer.

[@Brajin1]

Great video and great recraft. Is that the thick leather midsole option?

[@WyattDadCobblerCompany]

@@Brajin1 thanks! Yes

[@chinatownboy7482]

Excellent production quality. Are these videos produced "in house"? Or is this done by a production company?

[@WyattDadCobblerCompany]

@@chinatownboy7482 our production is both. Ricky’s oldest son is the owner of the production company. Check it out www.haphazardvision.com/

[@DrMOB-kt7tt]

Nice boots

[@fitonomberto]

Excellent workmanship! Do you still have a few more of those soles? , and how much would it cost to do this same style on my Redwings?

[@WyattDadCobblerCompany]

@@fitonomberto yes, we still have some inventory left. That job would run $350 if we use Gerberei Martin leather. $380 if we use the JR leather like in the video.

[@ko_blades]

Great video! What was the song at the end?

[@WyattDadCobblerCompany]

@@ko_blades part of approved soundtracks

[@ko_blades]

@WyattDadCobblerCompany well whatever it was it was a really good song!

[@jcmc6182]

What a great story. God bless you guys ! But, red thread again.... nooooo!😊

[@Keithphotorama]

I have always wondered where the nails go? Thinking I might step on them.

[@WyattDadCobblerCompany]

@@Keithphotorama the metal last that we work on causes the nails to clinch inside the boots. The leather piece inside the boots called a heel pad covers the nail heads to prevent you from feeling them. I demonstrated this in one of our videos. I will try to cover the subject again

[@funnystuf99]

What a classic quote “you go to college so you don’t have to work” ! Oh really!

[@kevinorr6880]

Beautiful work. Amazing trade. I would love to learn this as my second career. But, I am barefoot most of the time these days. Hmmm.

[@sheckydiamond7533]

I actually like the old neo-cork soles. Just don't see anyone selecting those for resoles.

[@WyattDadCobblerCompany]

@@sheckydiamond7533 we occasionally do the smooth neocork soles, but most people want some traction

[@keithjoseph7433]

Have to ask, if there was liquid cork in there and lasted that long and it filled all the low spots. Why don't you put liquid cork in there again and not try to do a build up with two sheets and then sand it down? Forgot to say thanks for the video.

[@WyattDadCobblerCompany]

@@keithjoseph7433 there is a difference in using liquid cork on a new boot that is still on the last and using it on a worn boot. We don’t recommend liquid cork for repair purposes. It flows around high spots and allows them to remain. This can be damaging to the biomechanics of the foot. Solid cork is the best way to go for repairs.

[@steveherring8494]

That looked pretty nice but I’d like to see a spit shine on that toe.
