Making shoe soles from old tires. 

My grandpa that lived thru the depression but still had quite a bit of money used to trace his shoe out on an old tire, cut it out and glue it on, said them tires have another 50k more miles left on them. He was the king of rigging stuff. Probably why they had money though.

good idea, excellent craftsmanship. I’ll bet the shoes weigh twice as much as they did if not more..Not good for tennis or basketball or running anymore, but for walking and general use, they will probably last as long as the tops of the shoes do

My grandfather was very poor. He lost both legs to surgical amputation just below the knees as a middle aged man, before I was born. He cut pieces of old tires and put straps on them. He put his knee nubs in them with his pants legs folded around the nubs. He strapped the tires to the nubs and walked everywhere anyone else could buy on his knees. The only way I ever knew him.

Удивил большой расход материала. Не экономит мастер клей и резину. Супер. Сделаю и я так)

Every shoe company can build long lasting soles with tyre quality rubber, but their factories will shut down.

Мужик молодец, дай бог здоровье ему и его семье. Просто супер...

We must repair things and must be used upto it's limits and shouldn't throw things away for minor issues, so in that way we can reduce our waste and save a lot of money for better use. Craftsmanship and repairing things must be taught in schools like any other subjects.

I met a Maasai tribesman in Tanzania many years ago wearing sandals made from old tyres...I commented on them and said I liked them...He asked me if I wanted to swap...I was wearing expensive hiking boots...I didn't swap...Many of the men were wearing them and the straps that tied the sandal to the foot were made from the tyres too...reminiscent of the roman caligae...

Hice el mismo trabajo aqui visto en el tenis de mi hijo que estaba con un gran agujero en la suela. Primero la lijé bien, a mano mismo ya que no tengo lijadera de zapatero (hasta me dolió el brazo). Despues pegué un EVA en la suela del tenis y a seguir pegué la misma suela con un material tipo latex. Quedó perfecto. Trabajo altamente profesional.

I tried this with some old worn shoes, the problem was lack of groundwork. Thanks, this shows how it can be done!

Эти тапки, сами по себе тяжёлые, а с такой доработкой это уже не обувь, а тренажёр для накачивания ног...

Nice movie! Good job!

Кеды весом как водолазные ботинки , прикольно , как самолёт на гусеничном ходу .

Beginners level but practice makes the person a expert, keep going have a long road ahead but you have made the most important fact: beggin.

great video 😃. I do it but with bicycle wheels. I first started to fix my shoes and over time I did it for those who needed it and it is a great way to recycle and on the other hand to reuse objects.

Sir YOURE THE MAN ..👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 shoe makers don't do it here in the USA it would cheaper than buying new converse ...good job

Great recycling!!! Thanks!

Wow !!! Nice restoration. Funny is the owner’s feet will soon retire and gone but the shoes will live on to the next in throne and so on and so forth outlasting other shoe brand. 😳😁😩👍🤣👍

they look good

What was the whit white material you used to stick the tyre sole too?

भाई, काम आपने किया, मजा हमे आया। भाई वाह।

Thank you, brother!

Nice Products!!

Had that done to my Clark's in the 60's

отличная идея! но для удобства резки , лезвие втыкайте в стол вертикально и режьте подошву двигая обувь!

When I was a kid my dad done that to our clogs in Sweden lol made them last longer that's for sure 👍👍👍😜🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🦕🦄😁✌🤞

شكران الله خليك بتوفيق انشاء الله

Bomb job and video. Thanks.

О, да, нам скоро это пригодится!

I own 2 pairs of shoes were the tire threads. I love them!

Great video. i like these shoes

Puros yordan felicidades pocos como usted 👏👏😇😇😇

Absolutely love the idea

"What boots you got on?" "Firestone" Lmao, I did this with a pair of old rain boots in the winter one time when my special $400 snow boots were skating all over the driveway.

Hasilnya sangat menarik dan bagus👍👍👍

Shoemakers in the Philippines has been using old tires as shoe soles and sandals for more than 40 years.

Nice job, you made it look easy. Loved the music in the background, Rockin chair, by by Unicorn Heads👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽😉

Excelente vídeo. Adorei. Parabéns.

Saludo ako sa mga katulad nyo sir.. God bless

Interesting to see NEW TYRE treads. Not knocking the in ovation.

🤝 👍👍👍 Thank you

Ahora son a todo terreno off the road 👍👍👍

Lovely! I had a pair of shoes fixed like this and I scoffed--but they were wonderful. ❤

Very good work

LOL One has the tire chevrons pointing forward and the other has them pointing backwards.

Very good😀🤗👍

Me: Dad, my shoes are worn out. i already worn the soles off I need brand new pair of shoes. Dad: I got you new soles thicker than the original.😜

Indonesia hadir...🙋🏽‍♂️

Meskipon dgn alat yg sederhana ternyata hasilnya bagus sekali cocok untuk dipelajari

Digging out abundance of matchless video really appreciate your courageous effective way of success in your activities impressive stay blessed friend 🙄❤️❤️❤️❤️

WounderfullArt thanks brother!!

Qe super. Saludos desde Bolivia broo

Omg...Good idea 😅

It's cool to be a platform shoe with old tires ♪ I want it

Necessity is the mother of invention, when we're kids we find things and make stuff, we make do, this is bred out of us, or kicked, by the wasteful, ungrateful consumerist economy, so great to see you doing this, I have a good pair of sketchers from 2004, never wore them until now, the soul is wearing and a lot of today's shoes are just sh*te, this is an amazing video, I can make any pair of shoes I like, LAST NEAR FOREVER! Goodbye corporate greed...I'll just keep the shoes I like thank you very much.....have a fun day buddy!

I'm an auto technician, I would love some shoe bottom like these for my work shoes.

Тяжелая подошва получилась.

Keren, alangkah lebih kuat lg kalau dijahit solnya om...

Nicely done 👍👍👍

Вообще идея отличная ,износостойкость такой подошвы вне сомнений , но я не очень понял что это за резина такая, вроде бы от шины , так а где корд, по беговой доложке он должен быть достаточно толстым что б его было видно, а тут его нет, странно.

Boa noite sou do Brasil vc e um gênio se fosse aqui no Brasil eu pagava pra fazer pra mim sou de João pessoa PB.

What material did you use between the tire and the sole? This is an awesome idea! Thx for demonstrating!

GENIAL!!!

Opposite-directional semi-platform all-weather custom-made soles! Great job though!

Are these summer or winter trainers or all year round I'd like some f1 rubber so I go faster

We had cobblers repairing soles with tyre rubber .. but now most prefer buying a new pair . We had even Aeroplane tyre soles that will not wear off at all ..

Mantap bang sukses selamanya🤲

Mexican style he he, in Mexico we make sandals out 9f tires as well...They last forever, some have been known to outlast the owners.

Looks much stronger than the original. The owner might die before the sole wears down.

Very nice. I’d love you to do that to my old shoes

Que ideia genial! 👍🇧🇷

What kind of glue is that ????

OJO OJO OJO OJO OJO OJO OJO Soy Zapatero de cuarta generación Y es válido arreglar tus propios zapatos 👞 felicidades este hombre carece de la experiencia y no tiene la herramienta

Well, now I know what I'm doing with my sneakers when they wear out.

Muito bom só que você usou muito seu material daria para outro par de sapato obrigado

Отлично но я заметил что ресунок подошвы смотрят па разному кагда клеиш ставь обувь в одном направлении тогда ресунок будет пахожий

You could put the shoes, side by side and save more rubber.

This is a clever design, except for when original plastic finally unglues from the original fabric after more use

Heaviest shoes on earth.

How did you flatten the tire?

Не встречал покрышки без металлического корда.

Where do u even find glue that strong in the states?

How are those old car tires? The rubber and tread look new. There seemed to be a lot of waste of materials to replace the soles on a pair of old sneakers that were not that badly worn to begin with. How is this cost effective?

Здорово придумал 😁👍

Para ir a trabajar en lodo están buenísimos

Мало того что с олько отходов от одной пары, ак еще приклеил подошву в мягкой пенке🙈🙈🙈 Тут даже и обувщиком быть не нужно чтобы понять что все оторвется, часть останется на подошве, а часть на кедах. Приклеивал бы сразу к кедам, а из пенки стельку внутрь вырезал))

Молодец хорошо правильно да точно 🎉🎉🎉

Wonderful . I like

А у нас всё на помойке, нет таких мастеров

Non slip good on ice and wet,A useful way ,to recycle tires ,and save the planet.!
