  • In this video, we give this pair of Allen Edmonds Strand shoes a makeover. A customer sent these in to us and wanted JR leather soles and combination heels. We decided to take it a step further and make these soles really pop.

      Trenton & Heath Hey guys. I’m interested in shoe trees. I see that you sell them, but I wear a size 13 shoe. The largest size I see on your website is 10-12. Do you have anything larger? Thanks.

      nodieusa The manner in which he gives out the information isn’t trying to persuade us to buy anything. He’s just letting us know he’s using this certain polish/conditioner with this certain chamois or brush. I suppose it is all up to interpretation though.

    @Punchgirl4 Před 4 lety +1

    I went down a CZcams rabbit hole recently and found myself watching a bunch of your videos and also some from The Elegant Oxford, with whom I know you’ve collaborated in the past on a project. I’m a woman, living in Ireland, I’ve never heard of any of these shoes before and as my son has autism and I can’t get him to wear dress shoes, I have no-one to buy these shoes for. But despite this I am totally fascinated in the process of restoring and polishing beautiful shoes. It’s made me itch to check out second hand stores to see if I can pick up any good shoes, purely so I can polish them. I know I’m crazy! Your videos are very relaxing and informative and I’d be happy if they were even a bit longer. Your soothing accent helps too. Keep up the good work.

    I don't think time is as much an important factor as it is keeping the "story" moving along. As long as you're showing interesting or important details, and keeping the flow moving...i don't care if it's 20 minutes or two hours.
    I pretty much never make comments. So you're doing it right on my end. Keep up the good work guys.

I know this might sound silly but the name 'shoe cobbler' makes me smile, actually makes me warm inside. Idk why but it does. lol You two do lots of hard beautiful work and if I spent money on shoes I'd come to you in a heart beat! Thanks for always sharing!!
