I am 70. When I was a little girl we had a local cobbler. He would let you watch him as he worked. The place smelled of high quality leather and wood. The cobbler was from italy although he spoke Italian and English. I loved watching all the details. I remember taking our families good shoes and leather purses for repairs. Soles, half soles and heels were usual. My moms high heels were always needing heel tips and sometimes dying. He repaired my and my sisters’ tap shoes and our ballet slippers & toe shoes.Many years later my saddle shop smelled similarly. These artisans show you why expensive shoes cost what they do.

[@AnneRiceBreen]

My Daddy was a cobbler. He was a master of his trade. Nothing yet asvtoo much trouble, a gentle unassuming soul. He always had a mouth full of nails, grubby hands that were black from the dyes and stuff that he used. As long as he had his radio on and a full thermos he was a happy man. He retired due to ill health but built a shed out the back of the house and transfered all his tools from the shop. He tinkered for years until he passed. I have 3 brothers who didnt show any interest in the trade. My memories live with me, the sticky stuff highs and the tapping of the hammer, I miss him. Your one special man, continued success❤

Your a real craftsman in a world of automation your a dying breed I enjoyed watching you I used to know a guy that still had a shoe repair business about 30 yrs ago , I dont think anybody in my state does this any more keep up the good work hopefully you will pass your knowledge on Thanks !

[@Avelanche]

Nothin like a man at his craft. Keep up that cheery attitude and good work!

As a first-time viewer, I would love it if the customers were filmed when getting them back.

Outside of the USA privacy has value

[@-ex2598]

​@@kl1970 Most people know how to respond to a question, even outside the states. "May I record when you pick up the shoes?"

[@Dan_the_cobbler]

I’ve actually tried already, a lot of people aren’t comfortable being on KZbin, not everyone wants to be in front of the camera 🤷‍♂️

[@fairweathertrains3029]

This is fascinating, Dan such a likeable dude. Thanks for showing me something I've never seen before. All the best mate

[@sundaru1]

You simply shown the essence of life, proud and happy with what we do for living, passionately and strive of the best…..thank you for sharing the joy of working ….

[@celestialtoystore]

You're a proper craftsman Dan and you're a natural in front of the camera. I'm looking forward to unleashing you on my shoe collection!

[@bbfifi1991]

The amount of work and cares that goes into the repairing is amazing! I am sure the customer will be thrilled when he pick up the shoes

[@blaizer3x]

This was in my feed as recommended. You're very skilled! Interesting watch

[@Naturalhighz]

The confidence you need in your skills to tackle expensive shoes like that. stunning work!

[@brianorfant1125]

Real skill and talent. Never thought shoe repair could be so fascinating.

[@tysoncrawford2217]

I've watched a ridiculous amount of shoe repair videos lately. So I have the experience to declare this is one of the best shoe channels out there 👞

[@rhino202]

I watched every second of the video and loved it. The hidden artistry that would eventually be covered up that looked even better than the original job was striking. Subbed and can't wait to see more.

[@joshwalker8099]

as a cobbler i thought. there is no way i could do this, after the video i thought. i can do all of this. you have just upped my game sir. thanks for that. ive learned a trick or two.

[@justsad-1392]

You have a great name for a cobbler Mr Walker. 😀

[@christian.comedy.channel.2]

An amazing repair, I was shocked at how much work went into this. This was a truly fascinating video.
