This pair of Tony Lama cowboy boots was mailed in to us for repair. This gentleman wanted new JR leather soles and Vibram rubber top lifts. We decided to take this renovation a bit further and give these Tony Lama boots the works. After polishing the boots with some Saphir Renovateur conditioner and finishing them off with some Saphir Pommadier shoe cream, this pair of boots was ready to be returned to the owner. Time for another restoration!

Once you start wearing cowboy boots you get hooked, when you find the right pair you want them to last forever. Nice work gentlemen.

[@bluegrassman3040]

True, I’ve got two pairs of Tony Lama boots(both ostrich) and two pairs of Justin boots(Snake, ostrich). The Justins I got off of eBay several years ago and the ostrich pair had only been worn once.

[@TrentonHeath]

Very true! We both have some that we’ve worn forever.

[@chadduplantis8591]

Those boots are vintage they were very popular in the late 70’s early 80’s they also came in an ivory color. John Travolta even wore a pair in the movie Urban Cowboy

[@needfortweed8734]

Interesting. I have never worn cowboy boots because they seem to be very narrow on the forefoot, and my duck feet can't be having that.

[@idontcare2349]

@@needfortweed8734 I would recommended a square toe box boot! Lots more toe room.

For some reason, I find watching you resole boots to be very relaxing. You make it look so easy.

Wow. I thought I was the only one from Columbus, Indiana that was obsessed with this channel. Small world. Now I need to send a gift to one up them!! 😤

[@joshua8314]

I'm a pilot and wear Thursday executive's for work. The hot tarmac, leaked fuel, and fluids destroy leather and rubber studded leather soles quickly. The lugged JR soles look like they'd provide some resilience in that environment without looking like a boot sole. Keep up the great videos!

[@TrentonHeath]

Love cowboy boots! We both have some that we’ve had forever. Lucchese’s are great boots! Glad to hear you’re wearing and enjoying them. 😉👍

[@conservativeokie]

Been many years since I’ve had a pair, but Lucchese’s use to be the Cadillac of store-bought boots!

[@anthonygardner400]

@@conservativeokie Thanks. They definitely feel like high quality to me. But they probably should feel that way given the fact that I'd put them in the category of "an investment." :)

[@marcc5028]

Lucchese are great boots ... so are Nocona. I also like Justin (as a cheaper daily boot). Tecovas are also quite nice ... especially for the money. Never been a huge fan of Tony Lama ... also keeping in mind that they are usually pricier than the previously mentioned here. Greetings from Texas 🤠

[@JeffreyStrader]

I and my wife live at our ranch here at Lake Thunderbird in Norman Oklahoma, where we raise Horses and Cattle. I was the Sr. Board member of the "Norman Round Up Club". My Cowboy Boots are MANDATORY out here. We have Western Diamondback Rattlesnakes, Pygmy Rattlesnakes, Copperheads, Cottonmouths and other things that like to bite. A GOOD pair of Cowboy boots are a 100% requirement here!......( killed 3 Pygmy Rattlers just last year, killing one of them by stepping on it with my boots )...........My most comfortable and favorite boots are my Rattlesnake Boots. Extremely soft leather, but very durable and bite proof (so far LOL)

[@TrentonHeath]

We’ve been to Lake Thunderbird many times. We used to live in Moore. Yep, definitely a lot of snakes out there.

[@MemphisCorollaS]

Rex Krueger said it best that the old school traditional ways usually work best for hand tool work. Craftsmen didn’t waste time, money, effort, or materials if they were any good. They found the best ways they could to produce the best work they could with tools, jigs, and processes that just worked over time. It looks like y’all blend quality, new materials (leather soles with small lugs for example) with traditional techniques. It’s mesmerizing to watch you both killing it at your craft. Thanks for the great content.

[@michaelford1709]

I will never stop asking for more cowboy boots

i know that when i need to get my boots resoled, i’m going to have Trenton & Heath handle it, because of their high quality workmanship and attention to detail

[@rubendevereaux6086]

I love the sewing part, I'm always fascinated that the machine goes through all that. I live my boots goat, ostrich, cow just as long as it's not too hard to take care of. Fun show, thank you

[@kbrett2004]

I enjoy many cobbler channels and I'm always struck by the fact you two cats are undeniably the best dressed and have the cleanest shop of any I watch. Kudos gents.

[@TrentonHeath]

Well, thank you, Sir!

[@kevinstewart4579]

I love these highly- detailed resole jobs... Also, the shooting style of having you both working together is really great. In fact, I think that I've found a video to tie with my previous favourite, which was the Lobb repair... Again, the camera-work is excellent, but the real strength of the video lies in how Heath breaks down and explains the steps. Considering the attention to detail, meticulousness and care that you both put into your work, I find myself wondering what you could do if you were to take on a restoration of Trenton's Mustang?! (or was it a Camaro?) I bet that a whole lot of people would LOVE to see that! Thanks guys!

A good fitting shoe/boot just can't be beat. Love the way you're keeping with tradition and using real leather.
