True of all master craftsmen and women, we can appreciate the skill, knowledge and experience even if the end product isn’t to our liking, we love to see the intricacies and techniques that are brought together. As you rightly say, incredible! 😀
watching Lee in his western denim shirt and jeans making sanding, carving, and shaping the boots by hands travels me "130 years." It does not get any more Americana oldschool craftmanship and passion than that! amazing job, Kirby and team on this full-length ASMR video!
Thank you very much dear people Kirby and Lee Miller for providing viewing satisfaction! A very atmospheric video, sometimes it seems that you are about to start smelling tools and materials, and your hands begin to feel like I'm working...
New to the channel (brought from custom hiking boots production video), but I loved, loved, loved these videos with Lee. Your knowledge, curiosity, vulnerability, and respect lead to such a great look into the craft. You choosing to honor his legacy and contributions to the craft in the folded tulip design was moving. I haven't even watched the final product video yet, but I just know you'll really value these boots and am looking forward to seeing them on your feet and hopefully similar videos! Earned many subs with this one I imagine!
Something very relaxing to watch a craftsman at work.. Not rushing around all day. Making more of a difference in the world with just a steady purpose.. 😎
It's a pleasure to see your content, the manufacturing process greatly relaxes me, even more so living in Mexico where hundreds of thousands are made daily, I love the approach, best regards.
I’m sure there are machines out there doing all these steps much faster and blah blah blah. But I know they don’t touch the craftsmanship that we see here. Well done sir!!!
at 8:32 FINALLY someone who lights a "burner" the right way, with a flint striker, NOT a gas lighter (the kind you set birthday cake candles alight with), or light a cigar!, those are Fine for that intended use, but an "alcohol stove/burner" used by gemmologists, Glass workers, and others, as well as metal welders using Acetylene / Oxygen Gas tanks these fuel sources can backfire causing a big blast, and in Acetylene/Oxy case, can blow up the entire shed or workshop!!
I'm not saying that there is no chance I will ever wear bespoke cowboy boots. But I think the the odds I'll win the lotto are a bit better. It is however, interesting to see how it's done.
Hi sir, I am 18 and don’t know exactly how to dress as I feel too young to wear a suit often but I’m also going to the gym and my physique is still changing so I don’t know if I should wear a sport coat or something like that, many thanks - Jules
That was Kirby I have a question my name is Jason a question is about their suit jackets how do you take them off and how do you take them off as I just would like for you chat with this chat with me on your computer so thanks
Honestly I’m almost certain after he retires his shop would need to find some ways to speed up the process, by a lot, if they don’t want their store shutting down. Lee Miller can make his customer wait due to his name, eventually that’s going to wane away. 5 years is too long your youth would be half gone before you get to wear them.
That is great, isn´t it? We got these true traditional masters, who create things in old way with their hands and yet most common people nowadays spend their fortune on big fashion brands, which are frauds. Hard to believe, but it is the truth. Well, smart people with heatlhy common sense will support true masters, whereas people who don´t mind being ripped off will support brands like Gucci, Armani, Versace and other scam selling terribly expensive stuff with no so good quality. I belong to the minority supporting smaller true masters, because I love myself, my money and want to help people, who strives for quality. Thank you Kirby for another video.
