Apocalypse boots made easy 

I couldn't help but think about Jimmy walking around his shop just wearing socks while he made these. 😂

Admiring the craftmanship. The practicality?

I lost a hunting knife holstered like that when I was much younger and lots more active. It would probably work now that I'm old and slow. Nice vid and leather work Diresta.

I would use a strap for the lower part of the knife sheath instead of the rivet. I don't know how movement of the ankle will affect the joint in the long term. Otherwise very good looking. Always interesting to watch.

Very nice, added bonus: provides ankle support 😎

Now that is awesome!! I bet a lot of people would be interested in something like that. Especially hunters.

Thought this might have been the long anticipated ‘Which-blade 3’

Not sure how wise having either outside in the rain, but it's always a pleasure to watch the masters at work.

Last thing you need in Apocalyptic times is a pair of heavy boots with extra weights attached. But they are definitely good for pre-apocalypse training.

Awesome leatherwork and the coolest set of boots in the wasteland!

Father’s Day morning. Kids still asleep. Kickass new Diresta video. The best!

Ok, this was really cool and all but the best part was using a hemostat to hold the rivet up! Simple and genius!

Those chickens don't know who they're messing with!!!

Love your skills working with so many different mediums, although I would have been more impressed if you had attached the holsters directly , or direstaly to your calves 😁

I would approach it a little bit differently. So, maybe, instead of a permanent bond, having a metal clip would be more beneficial and would also downsize points of contact between a holster and a boot to maximum of two.

AWESOME!!! Boot holsters for everything, everywhere, anytime.... Thank you!

there is nothing about these i don’t absolutely love! also love the use of the hemostats

I now know the key to getting chickens to use a nesting box is leaving the label on it. 🙂

Gonna need a pair of bell bottoms to go with those boots 👍 I’m thinking Diresta Work Wranglers 😁

Fantastic work! (as usual). But I would definitely need a tab / snap… or something similar as a keeper. I get into some pretty rugged situations with my work and would be heartbroken if I lost my favorite knife or multi-tool. Of course🤔🤔 this would be great for my daily-wear boots. Thanks for another great idea Jimmy

It must be grand to dream up with an idea and have all the tools to make it come true. You are surely Blessed Jimmy.

Just don't forget they are there when you fly next. Also nest box in the coop.

You make it look so easy… beautiful craftsmanship… thank you for sharing.

Cool! Self protection AND ankle guard at the same time

Hi Jimmy Diresta beautifully done good job well done

I still dream on the day I can have a leatherman

well, this is ... a gift to the finder

ideal at airports! just joshin, I love them....

Always wanted to do that to a pair of my boots. Thank you for showing me how. You did an excellent job.

I'm 44 and just learned how rivets are actually done, sure I understood the concept, but had never seen the actual application procedure.

Love the T-shirt Jimmy - Was great seeing you in Melbourne Australia.

Sweet! Jimmys got his church-going boot!

Bravo! Great work with the leather! Interesting idea!!! Handy!!! Triumphant craftsman!

Jimmy you a brave man one handing the camera and cutting with that bandsaw.

Jimmy ! I like it! Great Fathers Day gift. Thanks.

He has a house with a lawn / yard / farm : No big deal. He has a garage with a car / truck : No big deal. He has a workshop with machines : Nice. He has a drawer full of multi-tools : Instant jealousy!

Saludes from Brazil...you are the greatest maker of the world👏

Grande Jimmy... sempre uno dei migliori... saluti dall'Italia ciaoooo👍

With just a leatherman and a fixed blade, you must be preparing for a 24 hour apocalypse.

Awesome ideas, love the use of the laser to make the dies too. Cheers J

I like the use of forceps to hold the rivet. 👍👍

love the fun builds. The patented waterproof "Scubaliner" might have suffered a bit!

Nice...loaded 👢 boots complete. 👍💯✌

The ducks were also amazed when they saw the work!😂😂😂

They look great! I’d need to do some exercise to be able to reach those tools!

1st thought: Now I know where the knife drawer is. 2nd thought: There's probably a knife drawer in every building if not every room. 🤣🔪🗡️

the "airport oopsies"

What a great idea.

Pretty slick...thanks Jimmy 👍😎👍

Slow day at the office for Jimmy.

When your pockets are allways full, you can make additional ones in Jimmy's style.

Excellent..love the vision

CLASSIC DIRESTA 😉😆

And Dave was worried about metal filings in your bed. He never thought about all of the pointy things in your pockets, and now boots. 🤣😂

Classic DIRESTA

Fabulous! So many techniques, ideas & doing to inspire & such fine clean lines & practicality of the result. Thank you for sharing!

When I grow up I wanna be just like Jimmy

Just remember not to wear them to the airport or courthouse 😂

Get some beeswax on those boots Jimmie!

Always something fun Jimmy. Thumbs up.

I have had bad experiences with brass/copper anywhere near shoes that might get wet. The brass/copper oxidized into nothing in less than 2 years. So for the next ones I would suggest stainless steel or fiberglass.

Badass!!!! Love those!!

Maybe I can wear these while riding my Sportster? Not in the CA probably. Very nice!

Great film. Always tight and entertaining. Sheaths are awesome. Impressive how you can create on the fly, like jazz. Cool boots too, Carolina. Anyone know if the Weaver 303 have a built in thread cutter? Mahalo for sharing! : )

I was watching the luve steam and couldn't comment so here goes.. I think u should do a shipping container shop giveaway.. any theme ... maybe a calibration with friends? Well thats all.. P.s. short or long shop... my kids and I love what you do!

I do somehow think a belt spring clip would have been a better choice instead of pokin holes in those good lookin boots . But to each his own 😮

Yimmi ai una grande inventiva a vedere i tuoi lavori sono delle opere d’arte 🖼️ ti auguro tanta fortuna a te e famiglia ⭐️👌

Really nice job 🤜🏻🤛🏻

Noticed the apocalyptic trend is starting to pick up finally.

Always great.

A treat to look at !

If I had that capability …. lol evereeeethang. Pruning shears AND multi tool. Dagger knife in the right boot. But you gotta cutesy it up (stamps) to match my ole fat baby cactus cowgirl boots. Eh they’re gone now nvm. 😂❤

What chisels are yo using they look handy? Keep the great content coming.

So awesome!

First things first I love you, Jimmy. Second, what material did you use to etch on the laser so you could stamp the letter? Make On Brother

I want one.

Красавчик ❤ Работа великолепная 👍

Nice work! ...

Those were nice boots

Now doomsday can come!

that looks likes some comfy socks

Always got them thangs on u 😂

I wonder if you could loose the knife if you would be walking in the brush and or it being a trip hazard. Also since you keep the boots outside, would rust be an issue. By the way great work and a great tractor.

very cool jimmy

I'm a bit surprised he didn't burnish the edges.

Chickens fear him...

sometging like that would be cool to have on a belt too.

The Ducks agree

Nice video and the results Look great, The multitool idea is great but in practice the big knife won’t work, you’ve restricted the movement of the booth, I think only attaching the top part of the knife would have allowed for much more movement of your booth.

Nice! There is not room for a shotgun in the boot, so a knife and and Leatherman will do.

Dude, that is wicked!!! Is there anything that you can't do????? Looks amazing.

That is pretty cool sir!

Well there goes whatever waterproofing those boots had lol.

Very cool

Love it

Very nice fantastic work 👍👍

Man I stopped leaving my shoes outside overnight after getting bit by a spider as a kid. Probably around 7 years old. Not sure what is was. We had back widows and brown widows but this spider had something that looked like a cotton ball on its back and it hurt. Be careful and check them shoes good before you put them on.

Che stivaloni da sopravvivenza che ti sei fatto bene sei promosso sempre n👍👌🐝🛠️

Cup holders next?

Hey Jimmy, for stamping the logo in the leather, how long did you leave it clamped up in the vise?
