*Great job Brian resoling these Nick's Boots! They were very much in need of new soles and heels! It's awesome the stitchchdown construction was converted to goodyear welted! I actually prefer that on my boots! I would change a pair of Nick's Boots to have them that way. It will make it easier to resole, since the welt can be removed (when it gets too worn down, etc) and be replaced with a new welt! Overall well done Brian! Beautifully restored!*
*All those complaining that all the boots that needed were rubber soles, no. The customer wanted a goodyear welted construction with new soles. Nothing wrong with that! Also it's the customer's boots not yours lol 😅🤣🤣🤣!*
Brian, I have pair of thorogoods and I want to get the role club vibram sole replacement issue from the old sole. How do I get you to do that for me?? Can I get options for color and heal?? Please let me know if you can. Thanks!!
This dude works to FINE tolerences... Brian... your skill and your artistry are honed to such a precise level of mastery... Bravo, Sir. Bravo. First time I saw your rubber soles I thought "this guy is influenced by the WW2 red paratrooper boots..." but wondered if the inner row of stitching was just aesthetic. After watching this video, I can see that it is indeed sewn onto the leather insole. Nice touch! It also looks like each and every stacked leather heel block is shaped individually for the boot it's being mounted to? .... I'm speechless... Stunning craftsmanship, from start to finish...
At first I was a little worried. But the I saw the amount of time and the level of quality that you put into putting new soles on Doc Martens. I love my Docs and it’s nice to see Docs getting some special treatment. What a beautiful job
People like this are hard to come by now… i might’ve been looking in the wrong places my whole life. But I feel like it’s so rare to find human beings who are still like this today. I’m so glad you found your mentor and best friend. I pray 1 day I find and meet someone like this.🙏🏼 Thankyou for sharing!
I just had my 875 resoled but I feel a bump near my toes on both feet if I had to guess he put too much cork My question is will it even out eventually after like a week? Is this normal? Should I bring my boots back
Hey brother I'm a bootmaker as well! I work for Stallion Boots in El Paso texas, I was wondering what kind of knife you use? We use the same looking ones but I was wondering if you made the one with the pencil in the bottom for tracing chinelas and cuts. Or if you bought it elsewhere! Thank you!
Wow to wear a pair of boots that you made yourself. Truly outstanding. You sir have more skill and talent than any one man should have. Thank you for sharing your craft with us.
Cuánta paciencia para hacer un trabajo con alegría y con calidad, tu trabajo es inspirador. Muchos hacen trabajos similares pero tú eres diferente.... Inspiras para hacer lo que sea con paciencia, con amor y entrega al trabajo. Felicitaciones.
Outstanding work, and very nice to see a younger generation taking up a traditional craft. It's important we don't lose these skills through 'progress' and recognise the value they add. These boots are much better than when they were made, and can be resoled much more easily now..
