BARKERS BUTCHER BOOTS get a DAINITE RESOLE! FULL Conversion Shoe Repair

[@eddieedward1986]

If i was 20 years younger I'd be asking to do an apprenticeship with this guy. Such a happy chap and i get the impression he'd make a great teacher.

[@theperfectpodcast1489]

If I didnt live so far away I would have already asked 😂

[@sarahl9545]

I have no idea why this was recommended....But I never knew how therapeutic it was to watch shoes get repaired 🤣

[@sarahl9545]

@Digby Dooright me too!!! 😆😆 Makes me look at shoes in a whole new light 😂

[@OsbornIOW]

Also helps folk realise how much work goes in for their money

[@timbo4973]

Same here 😂

[@Floodbait_117]

Ditto for me

[@MrFeretier]

Try watches ;)

[@SilveryFoxster]

I recently had these soles fitted to my Loake shoes. Dan’s work is second to none, the quality of his craftsmanship is outstanding.

[@jackfntwist]

You're the sole reason I'm glued to this channel :)

[@221b-Maker-Street]

Badumtish!

[@alanoliver5378]

I had these boots as a teenager in the 70s, I used to get them heeled and soled, this is the first time I actually realised what goes on, I love watching a good man at he's job, well done young sir.

[@Dan_the_cobbler]

Thanks man!

[@frankreidy5881]

Watching a craft's man at work is mesmerising - he is an excellent communicator and 'teacher' - his videos are excellent with a tinge of irony, humour and banter - works to keep his audience with him - great stuff and a great whistler!!

[@rachaelbusby3940]

I’d love to see some of your customers reactions to big changes like these boots

[@ryanbonner25]

yeah that'd be nice

[@margaretfoster4694]

Seeing the reaction would be great 👍🏼

[@ewa2845]

Das Video hat Charme, Humor und Unterhaltungswert. Die Schuhe haben eine solide Qualität der Arbeit genossen. Weiter so. Und auch mehr Damenschuhe zeigen. Je kaputter die Schuhe um so mehr macht es Freude dabei zu schauen wie die Schuhe wieder ihren alten Glanz bekommen. 🥇🍾

I really, REALLYYYY don’t care about shoes that much; However, it’s very interesting watching the technical aspects of repairing shoes. I never knew how much work actually goes into maintaining them

[@FabFunty]

I k.r. makes me look at shoes different now and rethink my next buy now with a tiny bit of knowledge how they are built . I have 1 pair of good military boots from Haix that are pretty down after 6 years (can't complain for150 €) now but they have a synthetic foam sole molded on. I don't know if you can resole this style, have to check some more videos from Dan the Cobbler with ❤ and sole 😉

[@balboa11ful]

Hello from Belgium, I am a former shoemaker and I see the love you give for this job your videos are great your work also continues on this path My best wishes for 2021 and above all a very good turnover :)

This is what I love about the UK, I,live near a small industrial estate in Glasgow and its full of people applying their trades in small units. Its fascinating just watching them.

[@lendog203]

The colors, The stitching, The overall look of these shoes is EASILY one of my favorites. Beautiful work.

[@nikelife6126]

His shop is so cool like a tv series. The vibe is so relaxing & proper.

[@Ntyler01mil]

I love any content that shows fine craftsmanship like this. So nice to see.

Good to see a youngster with pride for his work

I found this channel yesterday and stayed up until 9am watching video. This is dangerously entertaining. Great work!

[@tylerstech9614]

I never knew boot and shoe repair was so therapeutic and pretty much and art, instant sub

[@Dan_the_cobbler]

Thanks and welcome to the channel!

[@aerofly2]

Just came across your channel, and couldn’t stop watching the fascinating videos. I live in Tring, and embarrassingly have to admit to not having used your services (yet!). I remember when your shop used to be a pharmacy/chemist, and you’re now providing ‘cures’ for footwear. So good to see a true artisan at work! Just one small aside, that’s the first time I’ve ever seen anyone put the milk in their coffee BEFORE putting the water in!😂

[@Dan_the_cobbler]

Hi welcome! Nice to have a local on the channel :)

[@keharris7]

Like a lot of previous comments, I don't know how the KZbin algorithm found me, but I love this channel! I truly like the integrity to the craft! ❤🙏❤

[@purplesaxboy6290]

Can you do a video to tell people how you got into your profession/trade? I remember when we had a cobbler in our neighborhood when I was a young boy. He did miracles with our footwear and leather accessories. He showed me the value of saving instead of spending. He helped my mother save a lot of money on footwear for children, and her own footwear. I always thought of this line of work as stereotypically being an old man’s profession or trade, but thank you for showing the world that passion of a profession or trade is ageless. Many blessings and luck to your bright future sir. You’re truly an epitome of what work should be; a job you love that’s never really work. Can’t wait for that video about how you got started in this, and how you put together such a great shop and business.

[@barrymantelli8011]

Subscribers have doubled since the week ended! Bravo Dan, glad to see you rise to the occasion. Cheers on the nice cuppa. Your content is evolving and it's terrific!

[@Dan_the_cobbler]

Thanks Barry, new video coming soon!

[@xxx-il9dv]

Wow. His cutting tools are sharp...amazed they go through shoes like butter!

[@DET_C0RD]

I never realized how well a sharp blade cuts until I went around someone who works with leather lol.

[@spearshaker7974]

The options the cobbler can provide for the same old pair of shoes is really making me consider getting some Goodyear welded leather shoes.

[@herjenderlally4795]

You are a Master of your trade.🙏

[@mexicancatstar]

Watching you work is always a pleasure, it's like you read my mind from the other video to this one, full breakdown and reassembly is so satisfying to watch.

[@SirPhilMcCrackinVonBeggington]

I have watched a lot of your videos by this point, and I am surprised that you have such patience with explaining the same procedures and methods over and over. You are a born teacher.

[@alexburckhardt4066]

Wont lie, im on a cobler binge for the past few days and worked my way through most of your videos! Good to see your sub count rising by the hour!

[@seth_5394]

Bless you for channelling the sole stitching. Drives me nuts when people don't. Excellent work man!

[@davinasewkumar7091]

Totally amazed of the attention to detail that he puts forth in every project!

[@Bannerninja]

love that sole stitching machine - thats some serious industrial machinery

[@dloadthis1617]

Hi Dan, I really can't believe how fast you grow your subscribers list! I guess people know a good thing when they see one... You are a master craftsman! 👍👀👍

[@Muthurtucker]

Vid ideas....types of shoes, shoe materials, shoe terminology, parts of a shoe, cobbler tools and terminology, what is a well constructed shoe and what to look for, how to take care of materials, products and how to use them (my son has nubuck Timbs with a stain), most of us are without a clue,your skill and knowledge are what will create longevity for your channel. I truly want you to succeed in your KZbin endeavor. Gudonya!

[@scottlalonde2878]

Never much appreciated the appearance of rubber soles. Until this video. Bottom of these boots (as well as the top) look very handsome indeed! Great video, thank you for sharing 🙂👍

[@kipkoechalfred]

This guy does quality repairs. Hammer time just like Bedos Leatherworks from the US. Nice workshop too

[@GaryGold]

Merry Christmas! Thank you for your skill and keeping the tradition alive

[@tsads566]

What I’m doing here..... recommendation!!!! I never bring my shoes for repair. May be there’s no shoe repair in my area. But it’s interesting, really good and looks brand new. Fun to watch, with that accent and old neighborhood store. It’s in UK

[@rodneydelaney9227]

Attention to detail is top notch. A pleasure to watch 👌

[@beyenebisrat4535]

I am a shoes repair from Toronto I learned a lot from your videos specially your finishing is amazing

[@henrybutchy3242]

Nice work Dan. Here in USA, Barker shoes / boots are unknown. I have one pair, but I'm the exception that proves the rule. Cheers And leather soles wear out quickly on rainy days. Good conversion.

[@ianwhittaker7278]

Dainite soles were made in Market Harborough, Leicestershire at the Harboro' Rubber Company's Dainite Mills, so called because they worked day and night = dai-nite. Production went to China, I think, a few years ago, as the old and new factories are both derelict.

[@simondawson8060]

I have a pair of barkers very like these ones and have been considering a dainite sole too so this was (and I never thought I’d say this) actually really interesting.

Aw if you don't admire this guy with the infectious personality there's something wrong with you! Dan, your attention to detail and your work ethic is top notch! I am a life(er) on this channel. I may have to beat up a pair of shoes and send them over to Dan (I'm north of San Francisco CA) just to have you repair them Dan. LOVE your channel. J

It brings me down after a bussy day watching you doing a great job on these shoes. Thanks. Greetings from Berlin

[@CorvoFG]

Brilliant idea. I have those in black. Very comfortable boots but the leather soles wear out every two months. I think I’ve paid more for replacements by now than I did for the new boots!

[@gregoryvnicholas]

Great video. This is why I always buy English-made shoes that can be repaired.

[@gav2759]

I've seen the day watching shoe repair vids would be a sad way to spend a Friday night... let's hear it for the lock down!...Off to see wheelwright now.

Hi Dan, glad to have found your channel, thanks for putting in the effort to keep us informed and entertained, all the best

[@donkjc2]

I love your store front and shop! Probably a weird statement, but we don’t have any old school shops left in my area. Actually, we don’t have any shoe shops at all🙁 Great videos and you do really nice work too! Keep the videos coming.

I had to give it a thumbs up because of the Sole Toons humor. 😀
