In my not so humble opinion the very best shoe crafter on you tube. I found this channel while watching bedo’s, and never went back! Not sorry bedo. I know that right now, mr. Kim is either crafting another pair, editing video, or both. Love the videos!
Steve from Bedo's is a cobbler, a shoe restorer, and not a shoemaker, like Terry Kim. Although related, theirs are two very different crafts. Both Steve and Kim show to be among the best in their respective disciplines. I have learned a lot from both of them (and others) and can only recommend to keep watching both on RU-vid if you are interested in the making and taking care of shoes at a very high level of craftsmanship.
The world is messed up, but this exists. These sorts of people doing these sorts of things exist. As long as that holds true, all is not lost and it’s worth fighting to keep things going. Excellent work. Thank you for sharing.
I wanted to say, as an American, that "wiping your feet" all over the US dollar (paper towel?) thing you did... 🤣🤣🤣👏👍🧡 Great video. So peaceful yet mesmerizing.
Magnificent work. I have enjoyed so much watching. The silence of the video, where we can hear only the true sounds, are just like meditation really. 🙏♥️😇 Is it possible for us, ordinary people, just to tell about how much money we are talking here? For example, such shoes if someone purchase, for which the master spend 160 working hours, and such precise bespoke work, how much would costumer pay? Thanks
Yeah man you're a stud. Such an awesome craft! Nothing better than a well made sharp looking pair of shoes. One of the little things that helps make life enjoyable!!
Muy hermoso trabajo todo hecho a mano con materiales genuinos en puro cuero, lástima que ya quedan pocas personas que conozcan este arte tan hermoso ya que la globalización lo a suprimido todo a su mínima expresión. Un saludo desde Cali Colombia. Bendiciones.
Ultra Leon Применение деревянных гвоздей - (чопиков, нагелей, "зубочисток") ,имеет место не одну сотню лет. Во время хождения по воде, гвозди разбухают и намертво распирают каблуки. В отличие от железных гвоздей, они не ржавеют. Аналогично конопатят деревянные лодки пакляю.
My favorite detail is that the welt stitching matches the fudging, so every time the thread comes out it aligns with a divot. I never see it done, but it's so satisfying.

I've enjoyed watching a Master Craftsman at work with your videos. It's just going to make me look at shoes with a much more critical eye than before. I've been trying to get my son to watch them as well. If for nothing else, he needs to know how a shoe should be crafted versus ready-to-wear footkillers are made.
Hello Terry, Wonderful video and GREAT GREAT work.... Double monk strap are for me (with the chukka boots) the most beautiful and versatile kind of shoes... and this one are just AMAZING .... as always !!!! Bye and best regards from one your fan in France... Didier.
What I find amazing is that you completely incorporated that insole and added a full sock liner (removable insole?). Retail shoes simply have a glued on leather insole and a heel only glued on sock liner. I just had a leather insole completely cracked and crumble so I think your way of doing it will make shoes last way longer.
The absolute silence that he is working in is deafening! I can’t find that much silence any where around my home or shop. But that’s why we watch these videos. Transport to another moment in time, in another place.
Make on,В учениках - лет десять, хотя бы. Лет пять индивидуально. При условии прилежности и ответственности. Стоимость ручной работы всегда превышает фабричную раз в десять. А если мастер имеет мировую известность - запись к нему на очередь на месяца вперёд. А если он изготовляет индивидуальную колодку заказчику - цена возрастает.
Amazing craftsmanship. I have a pair of Nicks Boots on order, which too are handmade, but not on this level I don't think. However still custom, handmade leather craft, so I really appreciate what it takes to get these made. Thanks for the video.
Steve your an amazing cobbler and the only thing I can think of is fixing the impossible. Kinda like those boots you just did. Maybe a little more voice 😂😊
What a classy shoe! It has a unisex look about it. Like men or women could wear this shoe if it was fitted to the difference of the male/ female foot anatomy.
Nice craftsmanship,... would you kindly recommend to me where i can buy the shoe last... I would like to learn but thats the one thing I've failed to get
My brother, your work and your work is very creative. I have a question. I hope that this cork paste that I used in the video will respond to me in 25 minutes. What is the scientific name for it or what are the specifications required for this cork because I would like to buy it and I do not know it? please answer me
