![[ASMR] Everyone Does It Wrong! - How to Clean Red Wings, Thorogood, Thursday Boots](/img/n.gif)
Best method ive used so far is that I add an extra piece of rubber to the sole before applying your new outsole then stitched with a landis outsole or by hand. Then you mix your glue with a hardener agent to increase its strength by 10x. Bond your outsole to the boot and stitch again or if the welt cant take it, use quench nails. For someone not wearing their boots everyday this method does work
Good to see a perfectly salvageable item saved and not just hurled in the dumpster. Nice work buddy.
I agree nice work and craftmanship. How much does that type of work cost. Been papermill mechanic for over 10 years,just doesn't make since to spend over a $100 on sole replacing, with another $100 or 2,get a brand new pair.
Nothing beats a good pair of resolable work boots and a cobbler that can do it right. Nice video.
Great work Amigo! I've worked in alot of different arenas in my day but never the cobbler trade.. thats an awesome machine for sure.. even with a vacuum , a particle mask would be a good choice for daily use.. Be Blessed!!
Damn, though crowd. I enjoyed the video. Thanks for posting it.
Amazing job on the old pair of boots.
very distinct, phase by phase and informative. Thank you,sir
Give the guy a break ! those boots aren't of the stitched welt design, they are direct moulded soles, if you stitched these(or tried to) you would ruin them.
These are repaired by glue & some of this type cannot be repaired at all if the soles are made from PU as PU soles crumble & you can't stick to that.
pachy444 agreed these boots are not Goodyear welts.
I was stupid enough to ry and get my original sole stitched , as in my country it is not easy to get good soles for timberland boots and made a stupid try and regret it after seeimg this video , The boot was in a much better ondition than this one .
This is actually a goodyear welt but it is a process developed by Red Wing® Boot Company. The welt is a thermoplastic type that is sewn on just as is a regular goodyear welt. At the factory Red Wing® locks the boot into a mold where the PU outsole is chemically joined to the thermoplastic welt. The problem for repair shops with using a nylon midsole and then stitching prior to sole bonding it is very often the width of the welt varies from wide enough to barely enough width to stitch to. At our shop I've mated a glued and sewn-on midsole when I can. It provides for a more reliable long-term bond under the toughest conditions. It is not always possible when the width of the welt is just not enough however. I've also had success with the method shown here.
John Werner i used to.have a pair of top of the line Timberlands brown leather Gore-Tex and midsole crumbled and put them to a repair shop to get Vibram and the guy said he couldn't even do it so I had to dump them out and it went excellent condition as in the souls I ended up buying a pair of Bates icws and I've had them ever since and I still good and yet they're the same kind of design is my Timberlands but they're made to military specifications cuz they were originally issued two marines and army personnel mine would not used they still have the tags on them when I purchase them I did try to purchase a pair of Timberland pro work boots but they got messed up and I'm not talking to souls it with me like a rock fot contract work I got a pair of Wolverine Harrison's is steel toe and it took me a year to break a Min but they're comfortable anything and it take a licking I want to replace the outer soles with Vibram which are more durable and wear slower
Thomas Carroll dude. Learn how to use periods.
i love the blurry up close shots, really shows the workmanship on the boots. bravo
lol!
LOL
Says the guy who can’t work on boots, and has no content on his page. Bravo tough guy.
He's a cobbler,not a film maker
Right on there, Sean! Call a cunt a cunt.
Nice work, dramatic cinematography. Thanks. Old saying, "Success will be punished."
Nice and simple. Looks great and can save you money in the long run
Thanks for the video instead of buying new boots im going to repair my favorite boots!
man... i love the way work boots look
Great vid. Exactly what I was looking for.
There's a new generation of cobblers y'all
Woow a new life for this boots, awesome.
Good job bro, looked nice after reconditioned. How much to get this done at ur shop?
Excellent boot sole work!
Awesome video man. Quick question , how would you fix a cracked welt? Is there a particular product that I could use to prevent it from getting worse ?
Thanks for your time
Bob
Great work man!
Save yourself some time and start at 2:00. Thanks for the vid, btw.
Thanks for the upload.
Wow those boots look great.
I enjoyed this video!
I replaced a crumbed Timberland Pro Pit Boss sole with Cristy sole for working on roofs and started having separations a month or two after the resole. I used the same Masters cement you’re using in the video. Is there an ideal wait time before joining? I have a pair of earthkeepers that will need the same treatment in a few months.
Wesco lineman boots . Vasque hiking have served me awesome with that style sole
really well done. wish i had this level of craftsmanship n my city
Dig the look of your shop!
My booties are well worn and well loved. I can shine them up, but don't know what can return that smooth shine to the outer aspect of the black sole. It's worn in places because of driving. Thanks Guillermo.
Nice work. Would you be able to tell me where I can buy a sole/heel for work boots, thread and needles so I can do this kind of repair at home. Thank you.
kill the background music
Boy, it's a darn good thing I have all these specialized cobbler machines in the basement. (Course I could use this man's expertise with them too)
Pliers, box cutter, belt sander. Real expensive. Derp
Great job!
Great video! The machine used to do all if the grinding, is that specific to the shoe repair industry or just converted for use as such?
great! everything I needed to know
Marvelous!👍
Question
I have a paor of safety shoes which have only been worn about 6 times and the soles are disintegrating however when you look at the soles the tread looks great.
What should I do??
Very cool!
Job well done dude.
my austrian paratrooper boots wererepaired in this way , my boots now have a new lease of life !
Is the Master All Purpose Cement the only adhesive you used? If so, that is freaking awesome glue!
you sold out man !
No new cork? On the pre-sole
Guillermo. i have a wolverin pair of boots but it needs to chance the soles. Do you know where can i get it. I live in Austin , texas
I have a pair of ladies trendy clod hoppers. They has a very high platform sole and it has completely fallen off from one shoe. The thick sole makes it a functional shoe for me because my mobile home floor is freezing in winter. These are high enough to keep my feet off the floor and warm. The upper is man-made faux leather. The sole has a honeycomb shape grid design on the inside where it attaches to the boot. This design was necessary to make it light and give it flexibility and sustainability to hold onto the upper. They served me well for many years. So far I have found it impossible to find a new pair of shoes with a similar thick sole. Do you know what I could do to reattach that sole?
Do you have to let the glue cure after putting the sole on? You seemed to trim them straight away?
My Vibram soles are getting worn at exactly one spot, the outer side of both heels. The first layer is worn out and a softer layer underneath is exposed. Can I do anything to repair that? If not, how long do you think I have before the sole falls apart? It's a Lowa Renegade that I've had for 4 years and it feels like they should last longer than that.
Good job 👍
I couldn't hear, what was it you use and where do you get them?
When I was younger, I remember those machines around town. Don't see them anymore. I wish you would have shown the whole repair.
Yes please - dont need 'glamour shots' & music from a fashion show : get to it , show techniques , any DIY hints , pricing Vs replacement
2:00 start
I was getting ready to post and response to the video, and, then, scrolled down to your comment - Took The Words Right Out Of My Mouth!
It's free content. He's taking the time to show people how he does his job, for free. He can choose how to provide the content, just like his you can choose not to watch. Entitled much???
Nice work
Good job!
Like vid can you tell where can get Cadillac cream you used
Hi , i have a question for you what would you charge in the states to replace new soles to a pair of boots.
Im in the UK and my local shoe menders wanted £100 to replace the souls and heals on a pair of Cats that cost me £85 to buy.
I can buy replacements soles for around £28 but what glue do i buy?
Sir is safety shoes with steel toe resolved. ?same right here
I have a West German Army (Bundeswehr) "Knobelbecher" Boots that I had resoled. It's nearly 45 years old. I got for two cartons of Marlboro cigarettes from this German guy when I was stationed in Germany in the mid 1970's. Back then cigarettes were really cheap.
very nice job
awesome
I love how all the couch surfers make negative comments...... The guy is sharing his craft, what are you doing? (Me personally, I'm looking for info on how to put a new sole on my boots, oh look that's what he's doing.....)
Good job
Can you repair the Georgia comfort core boots?
Hi what will you say is the best boots for the price around the samme price red wings or doc martens or wolverine or any similar priced brands?
Very nice work you are a true professional. I have paid of polo boots (hiking type) with aggressive soles they have been stored for a few years and when I started wearing them the soles started separating at the back. What glue do you recommend for repair. They are 200$ boots in new condition and I hope to wear them for years. Thanks Mike J.....
Michael Jones Thanks Mike for the positive comment, and I recommend trying out the (Original Barge Cement) or (Master Cement). It’s a special glue that you can use on any kinds of materials and it works magnificent. Once your soles are glued together I suggest using Shoe Goo all around the edge of the sole to prevent any water going in between and causes your soles to separate again. There is different types of glues out there but I think the once I mentioned will defined help out. I will actually try to make a video on how to glue any type of soles/ what kinds of glues I use and what you can use at home. So you will see that coming soon, and I hope this kind of helped out. Thanks once again and have a blessed weekend cheers. Thanks SHOE SHOP!
Nice job
Don’t worry about the music you just turn down your volume and pay attention to the master at work of his awesome kraft we are all really excited about
Whats the name of the replacement sole? or where can you buy them? Tahnks
Can you put screws in the holes between the tread?
How does that Vibram model 1136, compare to 1275/76 in terms of durability, please?
5:46 there are a little cracks on the sole
Where are you located. I have a pair of 2.0 super soles. Amd redwing is 2 months out on resoles

Thank you so much for vedeo
You omitted the one part I needed to watch: The cutting of the new sole's edges...
he used the grinder
MUY BUEN TRABAJO , Sr. PEREIRA ES NEGOCIO MANDAR A REPARAR ???
ES CONSIDERABLE LA DIFERENCIA ENTRE REPARAR O COMPRAR NUEVO , O ES RECOMENDABLE SOLO PARA CALZADO DE ALTA CALIDAD ???
Great vid! How much does a replacement like this cost?
what type of glue do you use?
I had two pairs of hiking boots resoled with Vbram by a local company, they totally ruined one pair (now too narrow and out of shape) and partially ruined the other. Watching your video I don't understand how they could have ruined a perfect pair of boots, unless they completely removed the uppers from whatever it's stitched on to.
Where can you buy those soles? Amazon and Ebay dont have the great selection.
Nice to see someone really do the work and not do it half way and attempt to pass it off as good work.
Dear friends and shoe shop! I hope you are well. 💪💪💪Anyone know the best glue cement for fixing the coming away below the rand of my Lowa elite desert boots. Both my pairs have came away at the front. Tried gorilla glue both brown and white and they won’t hold. Prepared the area as much as possible by cleaning and roughing up then applying etc. They come away again in a week. Even used my staple gun to get a good fix. I know the pros use boot clamps both inside and out. But I don’t have them. This time I will use the best you advise me then prepare the area, rough it up and use heat and pressure.
I have a lot of friends in the military that need there boots doing and I am thinking of getting in to it as you just can’t find the cobbler these days in the UK.
Any ideas please Shoe Shop???
Peace. ✌️🙏✌️
Whats the best sole for hard uneven tile floors ?
You can't get this service in Australia. I've used sikaflex construction adhesive sealant to fix my boots in the past. Because it's polyurethane formula especially in 11FC .( fast curing. ) it goes off like tyre rubber. I just glued up my $200 boots yesterday afternoon with Seal and flex polyurethane sealant. I hope it holds up like Sikaflex? The leather is still great. Most comfortable steel cap boots ever. Cheers
I love that old grinder
Although that one looked slightly newer. some of the old cast iron machines are more than 100 years old and still working in shoe factories where they are running all day..
You have a great skill man. How muchdo u charge for this job?
Hello! Where are you located at? I have some Ecco boots that need new heels!
What type grit sand paper did you use?
Saludos paisano latino wonderfull work
It's worth me setting up a business in Australia in shoe repair.
A for effort. vgood job!!
Will this work for my jungle boots that have a molded sole ? 😅😅
what kind of cement do you use?
Had vibrams applied to some work boots, I like the pattern and the craftsmanship - hope they last - so I wanted to see how it was done.
Nathan Trujillo vibram soles are the best
Really nice seamless job. American Craftsmanship
Do u re sole any boot?I have a pair of grinders I wanna resole.
Good job Kid
What kind of glue do you use?
Good Clip
I brought a pair of boots just like that to a local guy he told me they were not re soleable and that I had to get a pair where the bottom is visibly stitched on I wish I had seen this was possible before buying another pair
Oh God, I’m going to attempt to fix my army desert tan combat boots I use for heavy work. I’m currently cutting apart a used tire to use for the heel only. No shoe repair tools available so I’m just going to use my vehicle repair tools haha. I wonder if they will look ugly with the bottom heel being partially black. Screw it, don’t feel like spending the money for a new pair.
How much does it cost fer this service?
