I rebuilt shoes as my life’s work. Had to close my shop due to lung cancer. I loved taking a shoe from trash to treasure. I have watched other you tube vids of repair work and cringed. You and I restore shoes, not just fix. I love the weave of that shoe but I have seen lots do what those did. You took care of it the same way I would have. But I never in my wildest dreams got the money you get. What you do is worth it! I am very glad you get what you are worth.
He probably still doesn't make enough compared to other tradesman like plumbers,electricians.
@@jimbobxcityguy5338 Not comparable
@@MrCguy24 I think other trades are very comparable to Steve and his leather work skills. When you become very competent in your discipline, no matter what it is, you start to become an artist. I have seen this in the building trades with plaster, cement, plumbing and electrical trades etc. Steve Doudaklian is a master tradesman in leather goods, just like electricians and plumbers and carpenters. If you disagree with my comments, please take some time to watch Larry Haun teach you basic carpentry skills. Yes...Cole...it is very comparable in my lifetime of experience...ua-cam.com/video/yh6cMQnWGwA/v-deo.html
@@shawnhayden6674 That’s not what I’m saying, I’m saying these cobblers are self employed while construction projections spawn from million/billion dollar companies and hire construction groups with high payrolls and multiple teams
@@MrCguy24 You obviously did not take time to watch the video link I attached. Plumbers, electricians and all of those people are often grass roots ma & pa shops. Millions of trades people in North America are self employed. They are not all in GIANT UNION work forces.
I thought this was an “impossible” job. You are a master.
I stayed up to watch this video instead of going to sleep, now I'm going to dream of shoe repairs. I have no regrets. Alright now let's continue.
I like watching a craftsman enjoining his craft.
Take a bow, Steve. Those were a MESS. I (for one) would've really enjoyed seeing more of how you worked around the torn heel leather, and the reweaving/repair/re-welting to make a miserable looking mess become looking like new once again. I'm a big fan of that technical how-to aspect of it. Nice craftsmanship.
I agree, I'm a little disappointed we didn't get to see the heel restored.
It looks like he did the same as with the side - black nylon fabric behind to reinforce and to put new stitches in it.
I'm with you. Education and craftsmanship the entertainment I seek. 😏
The before and after always amazes me.
Like an old teacher used to tell me:
"You are like a farmer.... Out-standing in your field..."
Excellent work sir. 👍
Masterfully done.
*Wow that's incredible that you meticulously fixed the weaving! You even reinforced the areas! The shoes are extremely professionally done! I'm sure the customer was very happy!*
I was expecting this job to cost a bit more, that was some intricate work with the weave and that tear. First class job as always and worth every cent..
My thought exactly.
Years ago I used to work in a shoe repair shop. I have seen some sad repair jobs. Now at 56 yrs old. I have some sewing machines and various other leather working tools. I am a disabled Desert Storm Army Veteran. Recently terminated from my job so thinking I will do some side jobs once I get my home one room shop set up. I have to say I watch your videos all the time and have learned a lot. Keep up the amazing work. You sir have skills..Hoorah!
You won me over. I went from "those look like they were made out of my grandparent's 1950's wicker couch" to "man I gotta get me a pair of those" :)
You consistently amaze me with both your patience & your skill…
There is an angel smiling for every extra step you take fixing those trashed items! Big love! Amazing work, craftsmenship, devotion and heart!
I love how you get frustrated when you see a bad job from another coblor 😂😂😂. Great video as always Steve. Artisan works should never die absolutely beautiful
Another case of sentiment over practical value! These shoes are better than new.
Rick _ basically, yes.
I cringed when I saw the damage done to the woven part by the previous "repair." Once again you made them better than new. Beautiful work as always!
Don't know why, but your video reminded me of someone doing surgery. Not everybody can do surgery, but we all have an opinion of how much better we could do it. You remind me of how much I don't know. Hammertime!
Two in one day??? Epic!
👍
I was thinking the same!!
Woohoo! Our "hammer time" bonus repair.
Who so ever repaired these shoes before they arrived with you for proper renovation ought not to consider themselves fit it do the job! You did an amazing job as always. The owner of the shoes can now get many more years of enjoyment. Bravo Steve.
My goodness, watching your videos reminds me so much of watching my father repairing things when I was a child. Not leather goods, just various day to day “things”. I feel like I’m back in his basement workshop hanging out as he shows me how to stain wood.
Holy cow what a save! I woulda given up on the shattered weave, and that tear I thought was a deal killer. Good on ya for having the courage to go in that deep!
You're transparency with your work process really is beyond amazing. Keep up the great work, and hopefully if I ever need a repair I'll be coming too you!
I was thinking that just the added video of the repair of your item should be worth a lot. At least it would be a big deal to me.
You are not shoes maker , you are shoes creator
I really appreciate your passion and your beautiful work,
Excellent job professor
Following your videos from Algeria 🇩🇿/ 🇺🇸
I have no idea why UA-cam recommended this to me, but I stayed and like your craftsmanship.
When my mom was a teenager in the early 40's, she worked in a shoe factory summers between school years. Before that, she worked in a cannery (she jumped when she had to the chance to make the switch). When she starting working in the shoe factory, she already had some skills from helping my grandfather repair her brother's and her father's work boots. When we cleaned out the farm house where she grew up, we found the cast iron shoe form he used as well as the awls, knives, needles, and a bunch of old leathers, spools of threads, etc. Mom just stood there and stared at it all shaking her head, and said, "Oh yeah. I can remember it like yesterday." Ironically, she couldn't afford to buy a pair of the shoes she was making in the factory.
I've been watching your videos for 2 days straight now. I didn't even know what a cobbler was, but now I am full of wonder and admiration for your craft, expertise and skills you've honed. To the point where I wish I had something I could send because the items that come to your shop get returned better than it was new. Your humility and dedication to this art is inspiring. Thank you for taking the time to record, edit and upload your work to the internet for everyone.
Can't wait to see your next project.
Steve, this is one of your best jobs. It never ceases to amaze me how you take in a complete train wreck and turn it into a beautiful work of art. I believe I subscribed in the 20k range if memory serves. Now your crowding 90k. I’m proud to one. Thank you!
Great video, Steve. You know how to re-craft a shoe like no one else I have ever seen.
Who would of thought watch shoe repair, refurbishment could be so enjoyable. Amazing to watch.
I really hope some of your customers tip you for your excellent work. Steve you deserve thousands of more subscribers, hope you reach 100k by the end of summer. You definitely earned mine!!
I love the red soles, great color combo
Gosh, If it was my repair shop I would've told the customer they are beyond repair. Kudos on the great fix :)
Steve is a magician....what a beautiful craftsman!
Love HAMMER TIME. Let the trollers push off. Very nice art work Steve. O. I saw the way you make coffee. AWSOME!!!
Steve you've once again worked miracle's to bring the dead back to life. Beautiful work xx
Fantastic transformation! "I'll figure it out once I take it apart," It amazes me to see how you "figure it out." Great work as always. Love the videos, and Hammer Time.
It never ceases to amaze me how cheap some people can be only to spend double for a repair job not done right in the first place. Truly you get what you paid for. Watching you inspired me to take an old Coach bag, save the zipper and rivets and make a custom face mask (2) out of it. I sewed the leather parts by hand from watching your video. Labor of love for sure.
In my opinion, this project really reflects the depth of your craft.
$410 ? Wow, fee should be higher ! Customer needs to give you a tip - this is the most amazing job I've seen so far ...
That is an absolutely fabulous job done, at first I thought how on Earth is he going to do it. I shouldn’t have been negative. Thanks again.
You are without a doubt a true craftsman and I live in southern Maryland so it is nice to know you are close by when I need your services
Amazing work! Your repairs Always brings back to Life shoes that looks like they are unrepairable. 👍🏽
Sir, you are a true artist and craftsman. Thank you for broadening my knowledge. I did not know shoe repair could capture my interest this much. Like you say do you ever get a tune stuck in your head? lets continue is stuck in mine. Please continue. Thanks.
True craftsman like yourself are hard to come by.... you not only repair.. you restore!.. love your videos!
Your Customer Service is absolutely fantastic! This customer will come back for any shoes he needs repaired if he is smart. Of course, we all know people aren't always smart!
Ok! That shoe looks brand new! 👏👏👏👏
Beautiful pair of shoes. Exceptional craftsmanship on your part.
Excellent. Your videos make me appreciate my brogues thoroughly. I love quality leather craftsmanship. Your work is outstanding sir 👍
You are the man for even taking those on, they came out amazing!
For the very first time I started to have doubts that you would be able to pull these shoes back from the trash. I shouldn't have. Well done indeed.
When you cut away from a boring or tedious part of the repair could you let us know how long that edited out part actually took to complete?
I thoroughly enjoyed this restoration and what a turnaround! Love it. I want a pair! I bought a pair of well-worn Allen Edmonds Ashton 1628 Split Toe shoes from the USA which need new soles, and Allen Edmonds informed me surprisingly that they 'couldn't' send replacements to the UK. Nuts...
You should live stream; you'll get to have an audience to interact with & you can repost a compilation of parts of the live stream (parts where you answer questions or give out tips) as a video on your channel for those that missed the livestream.
I love watching you take the sole off a shoe, I have no idea why! You make it look so easy!
As a weaver, I approve of this repair. 😄💖
Awesome save on these Allen Edmonds!
It can't be the same shoe! You went out and bought one shoe just exactly like the other, no that wouldn't work either. Just kiddin! It is your usual time honored work I have grown to love watching these last few days. It is a beautiful craft of art. By taking an old shoe and returning it to it's original glory, is an acompishment you can certainly be proud of. Thank you for showing us your fine work.
A two fer ! I knew there was a reason I couldn't get to sleep. Great save ! Love those soles!👍❤
Steve, You are incredible! You are a master! I enjoy so much watching you apply your GOD given skills and recreate beautiful things - and on top of that you are a very kind human being. I've been watching you for years...my best always to you...
YOU ARE THE BEST OF THE BEST STEVE! You should be in the Guinness Book of World Records!
You are amazing at what you do...true craftsman...
Simply amazing ! The way you repair shoes is not craftsmanship anymore you took it to another level ...this is art ❤️
this man is the Jesus of shoes and bags
bringing the life back to these failed repaired items
I will be the first to admit this was a hard video to watch, not because of worries that Steve wasn’t going to make magic, which he absolutely did, but I was waiting for something crazy to happen with the weave or the tear or something. But, once again, Steve did another miraculous job. Amazing!
Man, you don't sleep! :) That shoe looks brand news. Really amazing work, Steve!
*Your work--is beautiful--and impressive!*
All right Lets Continue! my new fav phrase!
keep up that fine craftsmanship. I've seen many of your videos in the past month but this one forced me to subscribe.
I ADMIRE YOUR PATIENCE ON THESE SHOES THE BEST SHOE BOOT AND MORE. YOUR THE BOSS
More than ever in this recycle-vs-buy-new time, repairing and restoring what we have is more important than ever, and the skills of those who help us do it should be valued highly. Buy good quality once, and then spend the money during the things life to keep it like new. Over 20+ years, the cost will be probably comparable to buying cheap things and replacing them every couple of years. But the benefit to the planet is obvious to the former approach. This was another great video !
Wow! Very very very nice end result. Craftsmanship is stellar. Stay well.
Another spot-on job by the king - boy that was some fix!!
Man, I didn’t believe before, but now I know your a shoe repair god for that repair.
Love your videos. I think it would be pretty cool to see the customer’s reactions when they see how good their shoes come out. Especially these ones that needed a dramatic repair. Just an idea.
I seriously didn’t think you’d be able to fix it. Mind mind is blown by how good it looks after restoring
Wow went back and watched your older videos from like 8 years ago and these are much better. You should have a question and answer video so we can ask you questions without taking up so much of your time.
thanks for showing the majority of each stage of repairs done, it really makes the viewers appreciate your skills and dedication to your craft and skills.
who,d of thought id like to watch cobblers cobbling eh, between this fella and a couple of southern boys im hooked...
the job bedo has just done is class, most peeps would have chucked em away, they was in a bit of a state but like the angel of cobblers he,s flown in and saved the day, GOOD JOB!!
WOW! Just woww!! You are a wizard Steve! Like the true Merlin of footwear reconstruction!! These came out impeccable!! Fine work my friend! Im learning so much from the best! Thank you!
I really believe that those are one of your finest rebuilds/repairs.. they look brand new..super talented sir..
Ohh yes, they are beuteful, great job.
Don't Lissen to the negative people, we love your videos and your personality and hammertime 😊.
Be safe, big hugs from stine, from Denmark 🇩🇰 🌹 🌺 🥰
Steve Those shoes were ready for the trash can when they came in then you used your magic shoe wand on them and boom better than new an amazing restoration 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Loved how you showed the dying process on the other shoe then cut back to the other deconstructed shoe.
I think the customer is going to be ecstatic, they are AMAZING and possibly even better than new!!!! You sir are a Master Craftsman!!!
An amazing job....you are such a craftsman!
Would have loved to see you put the heels on.....
Saw this on the gram, so happy there's a video of it. Love the magic compressor trick.
I love watching masterful craftsman at work
I was making a Briefcase today and as I was setting the edges with a hammer I actually said said “It’s Hammer time” and laughed like you. My wife said “You’ve been watching that guy on UA-cam way to much”
Beautiful job on those shoes Sir.
As always so interesting. I spend hours watching your video’s learning new techniques every time. Keep it up
Another beautiful job excellently done its 2:08 am and I'm watching you repair shoes lol
Another fantastic job by the Man. Keep up the great work. Let's continue.......
Steve it’s incredible what you can do with something that for many people would be considered trash. You brought back the life in a dead shoe. Great job ! If I would have told someone 10 years ago that I enjoy watching shoe repair videos they would have thought I went off the deep end. You have an entertaining channel that I will keep watching.
Nothing like seeing another master at work
Once again Steve...a stunning miracle!!!
I love your videos! It’s wonderful to see a craftsman at work. And, I love your DOG!
I’d be delighted to get those back…..given that they were in a delapidated condition.
Well done Steve. Shine on
You did it again Steve 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️🥇thx for your time and the vlogs ,👍🏻see you next time greetz😃
YOU LOVED THAT. You're not fooling me. Thanks for showing.
It is a pity the shoe designers don’t have a chat with people like you before they design these type of shoes I hope you are charging the customer you are amazing what you do you truly do make a silk purse out of a sow,s ear it’s is a old saying basically you make a good job out of a bad one please take care and stay safe xxxx
Wow, those turned out beautiful! I don't know how I stumbled upon your videos, but I'm glad I did. Those shoes looked hopeless and you worked some major magic.
You know, this is kind of weird how interesting this is. I have zero interest in dress shoes, and didn't find those shoes attractive at all, but the process and craft is fascinating.
They looked great finished. A shoe truly worth wearing.
Stunning work .... wouldn't have thought they could be saved but you made them better than new!
