D.I.Y sneakers project || resole vans waffle and midsole 

Comfort, the one thing Van's never had, but should.

Amazing! Your join lines are cleaner than on my pair straight from the Vans store! 😂

awesome work man they look great!

Man this is amazing! I have a pair of rowans that have the sole slick. The shoe actually does not have any signs of ollie or flip wear... A-ma-zing!!!!

They look absolutely mint well done thank you for sharing the process also a really beautifully edited video. I’m not sure this is something that I could do at home though

Where do you get the soles and the side walls to relate them?

Very good quality video. I want to resole some of my shoes for the first time, but I struggle to figure out how to find a waffle sole similar to yours that would work for my style of shoe

can you put the link where you bought material?

nice job, finally show me a way to repair mine, keep it up

Cool

Las suelas de mis tenis ya estaban bien gastadas en la parte de la talonera. Que hice? Primero lijé bien una suela de EVA, pegué la suela, la corté y la lijé a mano mismo nuevamente, las nivelé y después las pegué con una otra suela de material tipo llanta de carro. Quedaron medio rústicas pero perfectas. Van a durar por lo menos más 10 años. Saluditos a todos desde Brasil.

Your work on the shoes is impressive, and so is the video. I would like to resole a pair of Adidas Gazelles I own, but not sure I have the patience for it!

Talcum powder or a couple thin produce bags around it might help the last slide in.

Dude is super strong none of the vans I’ve tried to disassemble come apart that easy

I wish I could do this with a pair of my favorite shoes

Unless your contact glue/cement is different from the ones usually used you need to hammer a lot hard and more on a suitable surface (shoe anvil) or it will not bond so well.

Do cobblers resole shoes like vans?

Hi mate! I need some help. I have right now a ORIGINAL pair of soles which I want to put on my oldskool vans (I want to replace it), what is the best glue to use? I would glue the WHOLE sole at once.

What kind of glue do u use for combining foam insole with fabric?

Great job. I have a favorite pair of Sperry leather sneakers that Id love to re-sole. Unless you have a watch or two which needs fixing, battery, and you'd care to do a trade for services, any chance we could get links to materials sources in the description below the video? Would be so appreciated, thank you!

How can a regular Joe do this at home? I have so many sneakers with perfectly good uppers that have split the soles. And where did you get the replacement soles?

Wonderful video...what is the material of the tag? PVC?

whats the best way to remove the sole and sidewall from an old pair of vans?

Where did you get the supplies? Nice vid thanks

where did you get the midsole tape buddy? also love the video

Do you have a link to the materials? I don't think anywhere.

Is there a company that will actually do the restoration for you out there? I have a pair of vans that could use some repairs and I hate to let them go to waste...

Hey man, can I use hair dryer to warm it up?

Dude I'll pay you to do this to a pair of my original Chima pros!!

So I have a pair of Vans that are slicked on their waffle and I'd rather not get rid of them. Is it more effective for me, someone who has no experience or tools in the cobbler (Shoemaking) trade to purchase a new pair or simply try to pick up the tools, items and find the time to attempt a resole like this? The work looks well done but I fear that the amount of money it will cost to simply buy the repairing tools would end up costing more than simply purchasing a new pair.

Is there a link for the rubber soles?

help! i try to resole my Vans shoes but i cant remove midsole cause the Glue Too Strong! help me,, what kind or Something way (maybe Glue Remover or something like that) i can use for remove the midsole.. plese help.. thankyou

Can you put a link up for the soles and material. I have so many could repair 😮

hello. i have a very rare pair of vans that i really love and want to fix. i live in malaysia. would like to know if i can ship my shoes to you

Where can I find the waffle soles?

where are you from sir? i would like to resole my vans. im frm the philippines. how to ship my vans shoes to you. thanks and godbless

What vans are these?

How can I get you to do this to a pair of my Vans?!

Would you be willing to resole a pair of limited edition vans on video for me? I can't figure out the website where you got all the materials and also i want them to look as close to a factory finish as possible. I'm in the USA but can ship and will pay for your services and all materials.

Your work is impressive and very good, but what kind of skateboarder only destroy the sole? Jajajaja

saan po shop nyo pagawa ko vans shoes ko

An you repair my leather all stars

Why though. Just get a new pair. They aren't discontinued.
