  • @57WillysCJ
    @57WillysCJ Před 10 měsíci

    That is a nice restore of a good pair of boots. One thing I have never understood is the white sole on a work boot. In a factory they pick up varying degrees of grime. They also pick up metal chips worse than the lug style you put on. When you were on a farm with livestock, they are a green after cleaning a barn that well everyone knows that isn't from mowing grass. Even with the lugs which take needlenose pliers every day to pull the steel chips from if you are on some jobs in construction you can't clean the lugs quickly so you either track mud or you take them on and off which wastes a lot of time.

    Perfect boots! The correct height, the right eye and hooks, and the right kind of sole and must have heel. I’ve worn similar ones almost every day for over 50 years, thirty as a land surveyor that is on his feet walking in every type of ground. Sadly they are almost impossible to find now and definitely not of that quality! Envious

These Red Wings look like my 4 yrs old Danner Bull Run Moc toes...You make it look so easy in rebuilding these boots. Which by the way, are my favorite type of boot..

    You are only missing a Landis Goodyear Welt stitching machine. Hand stitching is a lost art with making boots. Excellent job. You would give Steve at Bedo's a run for his money reconstructing boots. Love the way you clean and condition the uppers. I did notice you used the water-based contact cement in some cases. Good call. Out soul needs Master's CC. Other areas are fine for water based cc.

    This is a left field question but is there any chance you could help me find out how I can order the exact wedge soles that Carolina use on their wedge sole boots? I want to resole another brand with them because so far I am absolutely blown away by how well they're wearing and how soft they feel and I'd love to have these exact soles on all my wedge sole boots.
