Beautiful job, Aaron! Nice color match of the welt to the binding! The speed hooks are a nice improvement, also. Every morning lace my boots, I think to myself, "I have got to speed hook these things today.", then as soon as I get into my shop I forget all about it! 😆
*Wooow those soles look waaay better! The color of the midsole and the laces really make these boots stand out more! Amazing job Aaron! You always have professionally quality with your work!! 😊🩷🩷🩷🥾*
I have a pair of 1000 Mile Boots with the moc toe and wedge sole. Looks just like that. Dark color leather. In the sun, you can see different hues of color. Wolverine said that it is Horween Lux leather. @ 11:00 Aaron said that he was using Vibram soles. Those are Dr. Sole.
*He has it correctly listed in the video description as the Dr. Sole **#3070** Cushion Wanderer. I think he uses Vibram so much, that he made a mistake there in the video lol 😅🤣🤣🤣🤣 It happens. It's a nice wedge sole though!*
Come on Chinatown I certainly know that’s a Dr.sole Obviously I had (Vibram) in my mind at the moment cause I was making the comparison Give me a break please. 😅
@chinatownboy7482 😅 Not this time, sometimes I have to much in my head I had already uploaded it the video when I noticed it But I put the info in the description. Thanks for your support.
Great job, Aaron. I agree that this is how these boots should have been made from day one. Colour scheme is great, speed hooks are so handy and the moc toe just looks 100% better with the leather mid sole. What sort of cost for something like this restomod? Keep up the great work, mate.
Dude I really enjoy watching all your videos you're a hell of a cobbler and I enjoy your videos are you cheaper than red wing on doing resoles on Red Wings I'm not sure where to look to see your fees for resole minehart and real bad shape and the leather isn't her to just needs a new soul from where I wore the side down from walking They are old 1970 Red Wing boots Moc toes. I purchased them out of an estate sale and they were brand new never been worn from what the man's wife told us
I'm generally not a huge fan of wedge soles on casual boots, (love them on my work boots) but these look 100 times better than the white Vibram wedges, although, they still look like orthopedic shoes to me
I certainly know your boot style 😅 These are actually my boots I think I forgot to mentioned that, I have several boots with rubber soles,and if you ask me I prefer soft soles on my Mocs Cheers!
I’m trying to get into shoe making/repair. I’ve been studying all these videos like yours and many others. Do you have any recommendations for a newbie? I’m considering doing an internship at a shoe repair place
Boots that are 6" tops should have speed hooks for the top 2 or three holes. Makes getting in and out of them easier, faster. They turned out wonderfully. Great job.
