Hope you guys enjoyed where's Ron! For those of you guys who have offered to help, thank you so so much, this is the patreon link but please don't feel obliged, It's just for those of you asking how to help. All the best, Dan. www.patreon.com/Tringshoerepairs

Hey Dan, I'm very sorry to hear about the burglary. What a scumbag. I just became a Patreon supporter to help you guys recover. Cheers, Paul, New Orleans.

I feel bad for you man.. props to you for not making a clickbate video out of it

Your video alerts haven’t been popping up on my phone in a long time. That might be the reason for a decrease in video watches.

An excellent video once again. Sorry to hear about your trouble Dan, no one deserves that less than you

I really admire your positive attitude even after such a horrible violation as a burglary, and losing your pet. I'm sorry all of those things happened :/

Dan, so sorry for the break in! I hope the scumbag is caught and held accountable! Love your channel as always. Thanks for keeping a positive attitude!

Really sorry to hear about your burglary. That’s just rubbish, hassle and invasion of your space. I hope they catch the person and recover your stuff. Thanks for the video. Great skills. Epic humour. Have an amazing weekend.

i "like" your videos just as they begin. Still watch the whole show. Great content and charisma!

I sympathise with you, we were robbed in February and it is the worst feeling. We were able to watch the crook take our prized possessions and dump them in his stolen Ute before leaving. The police were polite but only because we had video that would help them to convince a judge to issue a warrant. Luckily they caught him and the insurance has paid out but it will take time to take the feeling away. I wish you a speedy recovery! Great video also, thanks.

So sorry about the burglary! Let’s hope they find the person and insurance cooperates. I love my shoes! What an amazing new lease of life, you’ve done a cracking job, and now they’re famous 🙊 Take care, I’ll be back with more for sure! 🙏

Sad to hear of the break in. Hope they catch the culprits. Happy that Ron is safe. As usual, a great recording.

That sucks about the break-in 😢.

Oh my god I am sorry to hear such sad news

haven't seen your videos on my feed for months now even thou im subbed and today out of nowhere you pop into my head. i think im psychic and thank you for the video.

Never had an interest in shoes but I love to watch a true craftsman. Keep the videos coming 👍👍👍

Great video Dan. Love the where's Ron.

Не падайте духом,у вас всё наладится.Вы позитивный человек,всё будет хорошо!

Love your videos! Waving a hand from Western North Carolina USA 👋

Exciting indeed 😉 always nice to see your smily face. Have a great weekend Dan

Hi Dan sorry to have heard about the burglary at your place may God bless you with health, wealth, happiness,love , peace,prosperity, and success ❤.

RU-vid’s algorithms are dog water! I haven’t been recommended one of your vids in like 2 months 😢 almost forgot about my bro. Glad I found you again!

I saw the video on Insta. At least there were some good images of the guy's face. I hope they catch/caught him. And that Ron... Such a personality! Lol

Sorry to hear about the store, good luck!

Impressed you kept the mood here buoyant in spite of the burglary. I enjoyed your Where's Rondo segments, cheesy music and all!

Thanks!

Fantastic job Dan, as always! 👌🏻 and beautiful fishes!😊 So sad hear this bad news...I hope you get out quickly from this situation, its feel so bad😐

I only clicked on this video because of the bright yellow Vibram logo on the bottom of the shoes. I have looked for and purchased this logo and material in my footwear for many years. Currently, I am sporting a pair of Rockrooster Vibram-sole shoes that I adore. That is all.

sorry to hear about the robbery, same happened to me and it was probably the most frustrating time, godspeed

First time I've seen your videos , bloody amazing .

Such a shame some people suck. I do hope you can get your stuff back.

Your work is truly entertaining!!

such a craftsman; cheers from chicago

Thanks

get in there!

Great job, as usual!! Sure hope all your stolen stuff is recovered. It is unfortunate that there are so many bad people who have nothing better to do than to hurt others.

I hadn’t seen any notifications of your videos in months.

Bloody brilliant Sir !

Thats a nice looking fish tank! Sorry to hear about the break in.

Putting a Vibram sole onto a pilot's shoes is, IMHO, a perfect restoration. Leather soles are great for formal, business, and dress occasions. But not for everyday wear in the aviation environment. A pilot needs to do a "walk around" of their aircraft prior to every flight. In every sort of weather condition, and on a surface that might be wet, icy, and slippery with aviation fluids. And that Vibram sole is perfect for this application. A pilot isn't going to be walking for hundreds of miles (hopefully!) - he just needs a sole with excellent grip. On a shoe that's going to be comfortable for hours in the cockpit. But is also going to be smart and formal enough to match the professional appearance pilots need to maintain for their passengers. Kudos on a great job.

I love your channel and devastated to hear about your shop, I hope it all resolves quickly! Anyone that loves rubber duckies, takes good care of his cats, and is as charming as you is surely a keeper. Have a lovely day 💕

Good to see you keeping positive despite the break-in. Enjoyed the 'where is Ron?' sections. I can see them getting harder in the future. And I don't know why your RU-vid viewing figures are going down, you're one of my favourite channels I'm subscribed to. Keep 🔨 on the shoes and the channel.

This guy is a artist.

So sorry you were robbed my friend. You do have an amazingly positive attitude that is inspiring. Thank you for making such wonderful videos

So impressive

Great video again, i think you should drop the multiple wheres Ron segments. They cheapen the video

I always watch your videos with my 4 year old daughter. she is always happy when she sees Ron in the background. sorry to hear you had a burglary. Stay strong and thank you for your videos. Greetings from Germany.

I’m 😢so sad to hear about the break in. Robbery is always a sad event. I pray they do find the person who committed the crimes. Take Care. ❤

Ron Lives! ❤ Burglary is a shitty thing to do to a small business - good luck, sir.

Awesome job.

Very nice as always Dan. 😊

Oooooo the last "Where's Ron" was way more difficult than the first two! Nice. :)

I've been subscribed and full belled - but I've only got bell tagged with this video for the first time in maybe months (6+?) with *this* video. I check my bell feed daily.

Hi Dan Loved polishing my boots when I was in cadets got to the point where me and my friend started charging £5 a pair to other cadets love the channel sorry to hear about the shop!

Sorry to hear about you loss. Chin up.

I just became a Patreon supporter to help you guys recover.

Crazy humour. Thanks da do Ron Ron.

Sorry Dan you are such a hardworking man I have always enjoyed your videos and hope that they catch him my thoughts and prayers go.out to to you and your family.

More constant videos would keep views up maybe. I tend to forget about these video and end up binging after a while

I haven't seen your videos in my feed lately thought you took some time off but now that I see you here again I'll catch up on old videos

+1 for Shoe Care 101

always enjoy your videos

Really sorry to hear about your break-in, I had someone do it to me last year, they stole a lot of tools etc. from the garage. Contrary to the public conception the police were excellent and the culprit is now in prison. The only good thing is that your insurance will reimburse you for all your losses. Mine was very understanding and helpful and so financially I didn't suffer.

I am very sorry for what you have experienced, Dan, I hope you recover material things but above all your peace, that this does not take away your confidence that life is beautiful. Ánimooo !!!

Im so sorry to hear about the break in! Your channel is still in my recommendations.

So sorry to hear about your shop. Not surprised crime is happening all over the world. Cheers from U.S.

So sorry about your break-in. Never a nice occurrence. I hope you recover from it quickly, both financially AND mentally. Best of wishes to you in it all.

New subscriber here. Great video. Loved the "Where's Ron" bit. Generally, I watch Trenton & Heath or Rose Anvil and your channel came up as a suggestion. Glad I clicked it.

So sorry to hear that you were stolen from. Here in Windsor Ontario Canada non violent crimes are increasing do to chemical dependency and lack of mental health services. Thanks for showing us your craftsmanship. Stay safe

I’m so sorry for the break in! I’ve had it happen to me as well. I totally understand how violating it feels. 😢 Also, my condolences on your fishy. We’re all here for you, Dan! Just like you’re here for us!

Cheers Dan, I’d love to see a shoe care video, I have some Thursday boots and would love to know how to care for them. Sorry about the fish and burglary, take care mate 😊

Dan-sorry to hear about the break-in. You got a great attitude about it. Enjoyed the “Where is Ron”? A video on shoe care would be great.

Love the where's Ron Updates that was fun. I'm so sorry to hear about your fish dyeing and your shop being robbed. I know what it's like to have that kind of feeling because my house was broken into twice in the Neiborhood that I grew up in. You feel violated and mad at the same time. I hope they get the guy who did it. Thanks for letting us know and for sharing parts of your story.

Yay, a full length shoe repair video!

And supported on Patreon. Those jerks aren’t going to stop you Dan!

good job

We need more fish highlights! Hoping a tank get install in the shop!

Ron is the only reason I watched this video all the way through 😅

Sorry to hear about the robbery. Love the where’s Ron segments.

From one Dan to another I'm sorry about your troubles. I can't imagine why someone would do that. Love the Pink Parker pen. I use them too as well as the Parker fountain pens. Best of luck 🤞

Nice work Dan . Its lovely watching a proper craftsman ply his trade . Sorry to hear about the break in and the loss of items . Have a good day .

Красивая работа👍

Sorry to hear about the brake-in hope they catch the toe rag and get your stuff back . Awesome episode thankyou

Another one! Sorry about the break in Dan. You are already making a comeback!!

I haven't been getting notifications for several channel including yours.

Sorry that happened to you and I hope this turns into something positive

Doing a "shoe care" video is a great idea! Proper shoe care was one of those things that was taught by parent to child but sadly is one of those things that have been forgotten over time. A good quality shoe will last you years if properly maintained. Repeatedly buying cheaper shoes and disposing of them when they are worn out after a year or two is far more expensive than buying quality and properly maintaining and repairing them when needed.

Speedy recovery bro....sorry for the situation thank you for the videos you made

I am so sorry to hear that someone broke in and violated your shop. I can only imagine how awful that must feel like. Waldo the Duck!!! 🦆🦆

Hi Dan very sorry to hear about the burglary. Why are some people so dishonest!! As a shop owner myself with lots of specialist equipment (scuba diving) the best thing i did was invest in roller shutters for my premises. However if someone wants to get in they will. Good luck sorting your equipment out and keep up with the great videos.

Sorry to hear about the shop mate. But glad to hear Ron is safe.

Great job brother you make it look so easy and effortless

Tremendous job. It's a racing certainty that these shoes are stronger and better-constructed than they were when they left the factory.

The Pilot's shoes look brilliant! So sorry to hear of your break-in, had many of those including one with a gun against my head. Not fun. Good luck!

I'm always amazed at how you can turn an old piece of leather into a pair of beautiful shoes ! 👍 Sorry to hear about the break in. Hop eyou can get everything fixed soon.

Sorry to hear this Dan. Pretty sure I heard Steve yelling "Let's continue" and you did!

Sorry to hear about the robbery. Glad Ron was spared and that you’re ok, Dan

Hey Dan. I'm sorry about what happened to your shop, hope they catch them and you bounce back from this.

Tak!

That pilot must have been so happy! What a cool transformation! 😊
