[@pyronix]

i wasnt expecting that tour of tring but that was a treat. absolutely beautiful town. looks like a modern day fairy tale village. btw i couldn't put my finger on it but i kept feeling a certain kind of way while watching your videos and i just realized now what it is - nostalgia. i grew up and live in south-east asia (the philippines specifically) and when i was much younger (im in my mid 30s now), we used to have cobblers ply their trade by shouting "shoes! umbrellas!" in our streets. they would have their tools and kit with them and would repair shoes, umbrellas, belts, bags, and really any leather goods right then and there, and us kids playing outside in the streets, we would all watch in fascination as they did their stuff. it's a very fond childhood memory and i feel a little bit sad that these street cobblers are practically gone now. their singsong voices were a fixture in many happy sunny afternoons. i'm relieved though that this trade is well and alive in other parts of the world, so thank you for sharing that with us. also those soles on the red wings look so comfortable - and hey, great singing! cheers! (and sorry for the long comment).

[@liamdennisbrady]

Loving the video but loving the moccasins even more. I've been wearing them every day since you sent them back. Thanks again - Liam

[@pyronix]

absolutely exquisite moccasins. 👍

[@andersjjensen]

Can you describe the effect of getting a mid sole on them? My experience with crepe soles is that they're extremely comfy but if you step on a coin you can tell if it's heads or tails, and I'm wondering if the mid sole dampens that without killing the softness and superb grip?

[@charliebowen5071]

@@andersjjensen exactly as you described... it softens it drastically

[@matttherrien9608]

What color wedge could you put on black Iron Rangers?

[@alangibson3544]

Man, I'll bet that customer who has the Red Wing Iron Rangers was really happy with the finished product

happy, but still with terrible taste lol

The walk brought back many of memories. Loved it. Miss it.

What a great way to pass 30 mins, just watch Dan the main man hard at it, as always. Not only effort, care and dedication to his work, but also in the video's too. Such a genuine decent guy. Nice to see the Duck :P loved the double stitch towards the end too. No time for a cuppa in this one Dan?? :)

[@Dan_the_cobbler]

No cuppa no rest for the wicked!

[@dotmatrixxx]

Love hearing customers come in.

[@Bannerninja]

the moment of zen - always relaxing to follow a job, Dan is always positive and i love seeing all the craftsmanship and machinery

[@eammon]

Very cool to see those Arrow Mocs. I worked for them in high school and one of my tasks was sewing those uppers and vamps together. It makes me happy to see them getting some new life breathed into them. My own pair is over 20 years old and I'm not sure what I'll do with them once the current soles (leather) wear through.

[@danielbenitez1623]

Actually super therapeutic to watch these and cool to learn new things!

[@vote4carp]

"Hope you appreciate the energy I put into these videos..." You know we do, buddy! Great stuff!

Threw the like just cause the glue fill was super cool. Small things that you wouldn't think to add in became a highlight for me.

You make it all look so easy, not sure about the wedge sole on the Red wings, but who am I to disagree with the customer, eh! Thanks for the quick walk about, its appreciated “oh, but to be in England”. Take care and keep the videos coming.

[@haidengeary8277]

I am a plasterer as well as a carpenter, so I wear boots for a living. Never thought I'd be so interested in the work that is done to repair them. Mentioned this on another video , actually. I have bought 1 brand for about 10 years, and I am barely through my 2nd pair. Redwings are nice, I hear. Wouldn't work for me, as I run around far too much and it would not make much sense to use them. Awesome content, btw.

[@eliasstrand6313]

I have never thought about shoemaking like this. I've known, of course, that it's exsistered, but......... Thanks so much for an interesting site, i love it

[@nichole8609]

I was very surprised to see that the glue was actually liquid because it looked almost like a paste. Love those Red Wings and thank you so much for giving us a little tour of your town, very lovely Dan.

[@MegaSkyline69]

I was dubious about that bright sole on those haggard boot uppers. But they looked amazing when you finished with them. Your videos just get better. Thanks mate 👍

[@SerenityChaos1975]

Iron Rangers are what got me into watching videos about shoe/boot construction initially. I’m a purist an$ prefer them with the leather sole but I hope the owner of these loves the conversion.

Theyve never come with a leather sole though? Nitrile cork or a vibram 430 mini-lug, no?

Hey Dan, Dan here. I dont know why KZbin decided that I would enjoy watching a cobbler, never watched any videos with cobblers in them before, and fashion definitely is not my style. But I am very glad they did. I have now watched basically all of your videos, and I don't know why it fascinates me so, but it does. I think your presentation is spot on, and you genuinely seem excited with every new job. Thank you for the content, I wish I was in England I would bring you my boots just to give you some business. But if I talk to anyone over there I will make sure to let them know not to buy new shoes, just come give you a visit and make the old ones new again. Thanks for the hours of entertainment! You rock!

That sewing machine just looks like a monster to operate. It just reminds me of my mother who worked for a Levi Factory many years ago sewing the back pockets onto jeans. It was pretty fast-paced and the sewing machines were all operated with a pulley system so they never really shut off between pockets. A moment of losing her attention and she managed to sew right through her finger before she managed to shut off her machine. Bottom line, never lose your attention around that thing. I enjoy your videos...

[@vadimdon]

What a big upgrade to the iron rangers

[@Snugglez187]

Everything looks great. If I owned those moccasins though, I would have asked you to just stitch the midsole on and glue the crepe. That would be a solid reinforcement for the shoes, and then they would never need to have holes punched through the foot bed again from stitching new soles. Just glue on replacement crepe as needed. I think the glue is plenty to hold those on. 🤷‍♂️

One tip for applying mink oil it is best to heat up the boots before you put on the oil, to open the pours in the leather so that it can penitrate better.
