Sorry for the loss of your grandad & cats Dan. Congratulations to Carla on passing her driving test.

[@PrinceJ933]

Dan, my sincerest condolences for the loss of your grandfather and your cats. I have 3 cats of my own and I love them all. Outstanding job on these boots! I love watching different cobblers perform great work. I'm an apprentice cobbler, in my second month. I'm about to start stitching, so I appreciate the effort that goes into transforming these boots. Godspeed.

[@Dan_the_cobbler]

Thanks and awesome to hear! Good luck with the stitching it’s easy enough when you figure out you’re own technique

[@steveadkisson2921]

Dan, I am so sorry for the loss of your grandparent. They leave holes in our lives when they are gone that time may soften the edges of but can never be filled. I am also sad. to hear about the loss of your Feline family members. No words can ever make these losses suck less. Your channel and content have had an impact. You helped me re-awaken my shoe care skills and values my departed da drilled into me in my youth. I resurrected his 1940s shoe valet, stocked it with Saphir products, and have found a lot of pleasure in properly caring for my footwear again. Going to treat myself to some higher-end oxfords this season and would love to send them to you for toe plates. Cheers and well done sir!

[@Dan_the_cobbler]

Thank you Steve appreciate it! Wonderful to hear you’ve had an interest in your dad’s shoe care kit again, happy to help with the toe plates any time!

[@ChuckHeinze]

Dan, you are really giving me a education. I never had a clue what was involved in shoe repair and customizing. It’s so sad that we live in a disposable world. I truly enjoy watching an artisan at work. Great video. Oh, sorry for your loss, condolences. Stay safe.

[@benglaspy]

I know how you feel about losing a grandparent. I am currently watching my grandfather go downhill myself and its a very big toll on my mental stability. He has been a big part of my life. My Condolences to your Family.

[@Dan_the_cobbler]

Thank you so much

[@YNOCORWDO]

Keep watching, see what is all about 😂

[@jeffpurtell5676]

I remember losing mine. It can seem like the world is a smaller place. But you fight to keep the memories, tell the stories. That's how you keep the love alive, that's how you honor them. And our "pets," well, they're family too. Rough times Dan, stay in there.

[@meme4one]

Remember the good times with your grandad, those are the memories he'd want. Tell him you love him and grateful for all he did for you. Mine was like a father to me (my dad left before I was born). I'm glad I managed to before he passed.

[@TheChach]

I was never interested in cobbling before watching your videos and a large part of what has kept me watching is your consistently lighthearted and upbeat vibe, so it sucks to hear you had to go through some things that would have anyone feeling anything but lighthearted and upbeat. Glad to see your back in better spirits and I hope your luck stays for the better.

[@Dan_the_cobbler]

Thanks for the kind words, appreciate the support!

[@Abhj0106]

So sorry for all your loss- huge hugs

[@TheGreatChrisB]

When you first showed the outsole I thought it was hideous and couldn't believe that color even existed, but once it was on and polished it looked amazing. The green and wood look of the leather worked together perfectly.

[@Sun_InOz]

Sorry for your losses Dan. It’s never easy losing a family member, or fur babies! Congratulations Carla. Stay safe.

[@EDHBlvd]

You really transformed these boots. They looked 100x better.

[@Dan_the_cobbler]

Glad you like them!

[@luckys1227]

You are a top tradesman, your work is impeccable.

[@mikebeidelman6051]

So very sorry for your loss. Awesome job with the boots and nun the less the passing of the driving test, well done all. It such a joy to watch a Master craftsman. mike.

[@simvrod]

Well done Carla, freedom👍 loved the renovation. Great job.

[@Chevelle_addict]

Sorry for your losses. Thank you for explaining the repairs as you go through them.

[@halcarmody2946]

Dan - My condolences for your losses. Losing family members, including the furry ones can be very tough, especially if the events cluster together. I lost two of my furry family during lockdown, which incidentally is around when I found your channel. May you and your family find comfort. P.S. Congratulations Carla on passing your drivers test...now you get to shuttle others around!

[@Mouadieb1]

Man Dan. I am so sorry for your loss. I love watching your videos and always think, if I could do it all over again, being a cobbler sounds like such a fun job. Be well.

[@scottdavenport1833]

Great job, as always. I'm sorry to hear about your losses, Dan. Carla, congratulations on passing your driver's test.

[@Dan_the_cobbler]

Thanks from us both!

[@sy506]

I love watching your videos, very fun to watch the process and your things that you do. I like that you just be yourself and not try to be a "personality" for the video. Very refreshing and I enjoy watching every time. Keep up the great work and being yourself, very awesome.

[@paul6497]

Sorry for your loss. I recently found your channel and have really enjoyed watching your videos. A true craftsman. Cheers from Boston.

[@Dan_the_cobbler]

Thanks and welcome to the channel!

[@shaunehilton9617]

I’ve missed your videos tremendously, but after hearing about your grandfather and your cat, I completely understand. I hope that the future is smoother and that your life is kinder. Take care of yourself FIRST. All the love I can send from Canada 🇨🇦❤️❤️

[@DrAwesome6710]

Sorry for your losses, Dan. I lost my Nana this past August, it's tough. Your videos are a great comfort to me, and I hope knowing that brings you some comfort of your own. 💜 Side note, LOVED seeing Dan give Dan a thumbs up as they worked on shoes together! Good stuff.

[@christophervictoria4776]

Nice work! Congrats to Carla! And please accept my condolences for the loss of your grandfather and your three cats. I hope you and yours can take comfort from the many happy memories you must have of him.

[@kennethkossan5547]

Hello, I am a long time watcher of your channel. My name is Kenn. I am 59. Just turned, and I live in California just north of the Golden Gate Bridge. I find your channel absolutely brilliant, love watching it. In fact I've watched a few of yours twice. There's nothing better than watching an artisan do their thing. I am an art school graduate. I even went back to school and got my masters in art education. I see a real deep connection between what I learned and what you do. I am really sorry to hear about your kitties. I work with animals and have for the last 25 years. It is a humbling experience going through meeting all of these young puppies and kittens and then watching them grow up then grow old and die. It is heart wrenching and I really do feel for you. That is unbelievable that you could lose both your grandfather and then three of of your cats in quick succession.

[@CaptainHodges]

I’m sorry to hear of the loss of your grandfather. Best wishes to you and your family. Thank you for hooking us up with another great video. It’s a real pleasure to watch you work, sir.

Sorry to hear about your family and fur family. You bring such an interesting joy to me while I watch your videos. I know others feel the same as I do and hopefully knowing that you make so many others happy with your content helps you to heal.

[@luciusvorenus9445]

Sorry for your losses Dan. Outstanding job as always on these shoes. Congratulations, Camera Carla on passing your driver's test! As always, it's a treat to watch your videos! Take care!

[@JCulpepper73]

Dan, I could go broke letting you customize my shoes with JR leather soles, dannite, sole, mid-sole dying, etc. Absolutely nothing wrong with the soles on any of them, but dang! You make me want to tweak with different colors and stitching. Awesome work from an awesome person! Also, so sorry to hear about your grandfather and your pets. Both are so hard to go through. Thoughts and prayers your way, my friend!

[@aaronpaulus3492]

My prayers go out to you, @Dan the cobbler. Losing a parent or grandparent is hard, and losing a fur baby is just as hard. Take all the time you need to get new videos out, I understand you can't take time from work to grieve. It's great you are keeping something of your grandpa with you

[@paulpierson2137]

I am so sorry for your losses, that is tough. Glad to see you back after 3 months off. Great job as always.

[@lukeplayer187]

Condolences Dan, sounds like you needed a break from filming. Congratulations to Carla for passing her driving test though, it’s nice to end on a high note. And wow what a difference in those boots! So much better. Keep up the great work 👍🏼.

I really enjoy your videos and I'm just happy whenever a new one cames out, so please don't feel pressured :) Oh and congrats to Carla!! High five from an random internet stranger🎉

Excellent job. I just saw and add about those kind of boots and I love them. Now I know for the future what's going to happen when I need to change the soles. Camara lady Excellent. Loves your videos. My family enjoy them so very much. We are enchanted by the way you explain the process Cheers from Rhode Island United States

[@walkingdudeuk]

Good to see you back Dan. Sorry to hear you've has such a rough time lately. I hope life is getting better for you. Stay strong

[@jeffkinney3342]

Condolences Dan to you and your family. I enjoy your videos immensely. I find them to be fun to watch and relaxing too. I’ve recently become a fan of Dainite soles. First saw them on your channel. I have a pair of custom Mexican made cowboy boots that I ordered with a “crepe” sole about 14 years ago. The sole became hard and slippery. I took them to my local cobbler (few and far between in North Dakota) and asked him if he’d order Dainite soles for them. He went to his back room and came back with a pair that he’d ordered a few years ago. Anyway, they transformed the boots. Extremely comfortable, good traction, and work well in the saddle. Don’t feel like they’ll hang up in a stirrup. Thanks for your channel!!

[@TheRealChetManley]

Love how those turned out! One of the best looking Thursday boots I've seen. My condolences on losing your grandfather.

[@bevg1]

Great to see you back Dan and well done Carla on passing your driving test

[@ReekIan]

You always do a fantastic job, and this was no exception. You fixed the thing that I absolutely hate about every pair of Thursdays I own. The heel is too high IMHO and I feel exactly as your customer does that they should come out of the factory the way you made them. Thanks for the video and letting me know that I am not alone in my feelings about the tilt.

[@johnnunn8688]

Makes me ? why you buy them, if they are uncomfortable 🤷‍♂️.

[@ReekIan]

You don't know what you don't know until you get them and wear them especially when you try other heritage boots that are not such a high heel stack. Everything elese about Thursday I do really like just not the heel stack. Perhaps uncomfortable is a bit much. Could say just not ideal for me.​@johnnunn8688

[@dougww1ectebow]

My dad owned and operated a shoe repair business for many years. I did a bit of work there as well, fun to bring back some memories. Beautiful work BTW.

My condolences, I lost plenty of people including my dad, but loosing my grandfather took the longest to come to terms with for me. And the cats, so sorry, best animals on the planet. On a brighter note, thanks for a new video, Sunday with a cobbler Dan is always very cosy day, especially when it's a cold day.
