Grant Stone Boots Resoled with Dainite Soles and Review 

I was on the fence about GS boots, but after watching this, I'm sold!

It is not cotton (cotton is too weak) it is linen. Natural fibers burn while synthetics (polyester or nylon) melt. They can also catch fire but will harden up once you put out the flame. Linen, although weaker then synthetics is much stronger than cotton and is what is used for leather when it comes to natural thread.

Steve from Bedos would be proud!! Great job!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Great work and video!

Great job!

Happy new year, greetings from Turkey.

nice job!

Happy New Year from Greece!

I just ordered these!

I have these same exact boots and personally I would be pissed if you had dyed the edge/welt the way you did in the video. I love the contrast between the tan upper and the natural leather welt. Nice video BTW, Cheers!

What an interesting build. Quite different from my White's handmade boots, no surprise there though. They look great, nice work!

Nice job. I prefer the natural edge though.

I love the Grant Stine Diesels O bought a month a go (that's the model in the video). However my version (current version) is made with GS's own imitation Danite sole instead of leather

Thinking to send my grant stones and a pair of iron rangers in for a resole soon by the summer!!

A whole new level of cutting corners :) 15:58

Hi, what is the color of those Trickers Stoe boots,? Which one do you think are better boots?

Thank you for the great video and commentary. I wish I’d known the benefit of all the different toe plate options sooner. Two years ago I went on a date with the woman who is now my fiancé, near the middle of our date the toe plate on one of my shoes fell off after both nails were knocked off by a single impact against the side walk. I was quite embarrassed but my fiancé was quite impressed by the fact that I even bothered to protect my toes from that kind of wear. I’ve yet to try toe plates out again because my local cobblers don’t seem to offer the same kind all you RU-vidr cobblers use.

Hey, what Dainite style soles are softer than Dainite soles? I've heard Vibram soles are, but I'm not sure. I want a resole with something that looks like Dainite, but have a softer step.

Hello I have a quick question. Is it difficult to convert a rubber sole to a leather sole?

Have that exact same pair of boots. Great quality control and comfortable.

Got your workout with those

Something interesting is that at least visually that canvas in the bottom of the boot looks like what Alden puts into their shoes as well. If it's the same, would that issue with the insole coming unglued also apply to Alden?

I’m looking at these boots but don’t like the leather sole roughly how much does a resole cost with a danite sole

how much did the resoling cost? I have the same boots, and rarely wear them since the leather is slap stick on a few too many surfaces.

Question: I wear down the outer edges of my heels a ton and have used plastic heel caps in the past but don't love them. Are there any better solutions with dainite?

What would it cost to do this on my exact same Grant Stones?

Will you be doing a Cash/Trash on Grant Stones?

I rather like the look of the Dainite sole I have a problem kicking the toe off my new shoes Just bought a pair of Loake Brighton loafers Leather sole 😱😱😱 Any ideas for toe plate ?

It seems like you that you did a 360 degree stitch? Did it come in as a 360 degree welt?

Forgive my ignorance but what is the purpose of a toe plate. Awesome video by the way

In other words, GS boots are really well built. Please don’t be skimpy to praise it. I will take GS over any other brands in a second.

How much for the resole?

It’s pain taking these apart but there is little to no wear on these boots, had the owner not attempted to install toe taps there would be a few years wear.🤷‍♂️🙄

To each their own, but I would've preferred a brown sole to compliment the tan leather and skipped the coloring of the edging.

For a 360.00 pair of boots...I'd say they look to be well worth the price.

I think Bedos once restitched the toe area after cutting in for a toe plate...

Sorry if this has been answered already, how much does it run to get a leather soled GS Diesel replaced with Danite like in this video? Love the breakdown by the way! You did an excellent job with those.

I find it absolutely ridiculous that the heel counter is fake on these boots.

I do t like the baby poop color of those boots.

Do those boots come with skinny jeans, a plaid shirt, and a horrible admiration for Imagine Dragons?

That way you do not buy from China ,I don't care for the shoe
