  • Today we had a crazy job with these 30 year old timberland boots in for a full re-build and restoration. We restored the lot from new vibram soles to reconditioning the nubuck, and for being so old they came out great!

    I need a cobbler of this man's incredible skill to repair my comfy worn in nubuck timbs. I've got three pairs that the outsole has detached at the toe. My timbs cost me 120 US twenty years ago, I'd pay that amount again to get them restored because as anybody familiar with work boots knows, once they're broken in you've got some happy feet.

    This guy is younger than those boots.
    But still he is the one who makes this profession as art, and make it sure to survive for decades.
    (I don't know how the hell I got to this channel, but I sacrificed 4 hours to this artist.)
    Keep on, man!

      @twocansams6335 Před 2 lety +44

      Thing is you don't know what you will get back at some random cobbler, you might regret it and should have just bought a new pair. This guy does his advertising on youtube, shows his quality of work and knowledge.

    • @And-zo8jn
      @And-zo8jn Před 2 lety +17

      Also it would cost as much as a new pair almost. So that the reason why people mostly do full repairs on quality boots and not cheap ones

    • @TheNunakun
      @TheNunakun Před 2 lety +10

      Any good cobbler will be able to upgrade your shoe better than factory, so it's a no-brainer. And you can customize sole colors, types, etc.

    • @obscurazone
      @obscurazone Před 2 lety +12

      @@And-zo8jn I would get quality boots repaired every single time over new replacements. Boots that are worn in fit you like a glove, and have a beautiful patina. New boots/shoes take years to properly break in and become "yours". Plus, why replace them anyway when they can be serviced and last many more years!
