We don’t care about your ac sounds. You are a professional artist and we love you. Take care of yourself Steve, me and millions of others will agree, you are an awesome guy!!!!!!!
Amazing restoration of beautiful shoes that will last the owner for likely more than 15 years, and matters even more since the manufacturer is no longer in business. You are in a class by yourself with your workmanship. And you will never be "a jerk with a needle!"
When you said “I usually say ‘not a jerk with a needle’”, I’d just said it. There is an incredible comfort that comes with your videos and part of it is those moments because they feel like inside jokes. It’s the same when you say “Hammer time” and I hear “cover your ears, children.” I’ve been watching since before that donkey complained about the noise. Thanks for keeping on, Steve!
Give The Parthenon to Bedo and he will restore it as its original gold age appearance in two weeks !!! Big hug from Necochea, Argentina (country of most wonderfull cow leather) !!!
They look like My late fathers officers shoes? He was in the army for 27 yrs. and was enlisted in the 82nd airborne during world war 2, Korea, and Viet Nam…he died last June at the ripe old age of 97. He and mom are interred at Arlington National Cemetery…How I miss my mom and dad! Take care sir and stay well, be safe, and bless u and ur loved ones. Love watching ur demos/videos!
My condolences
Sorry for your loss..as I Vietnam vet..I would have thanked him for his service..God bless
OLD LEATHER SMITH here, nice job Steve. When I make Moccasins 4 a client I always tell them 2 NEVER USE POLISH!!! Always use a product 2 soften this way U almost never get cracks, with polish the sweat builds up in the leather and U get rot and cracks. Same goes when I repair shoes. GOD'S BLESSINGS ✝️⚾🙃
i just learned that tattoo on your write arm is NOT leatherface but IS your father. very cool man. you do amazing work thank for the videos
youre wonderful steve full of talents and you almost have complete tools and equipment theres just one thing you need also a complete set of last.dont take it as a critics.im one of your big fan.be safe and godbless
You are a craftmaster. A true artist.
When I saw the video was so long I promised myself I wouldn't watch the entire video, guess I lost track of time. Love the content and how it is presented, great video!
Awesome craftmanship. These shoes are looking better than new. 👌👌👌
You ARE the master of your 70 degree universe. And an amazing brass tacker. That was magic.
Good work Steve. You’re “the boss” of shoe and leather goods repair. 👍😊
Your worth the money...Those shoes were better than new after you were done. I enjoy watching your work..
Superb restoration. Those soles ... I am speechless. 👏👍
Mr.steve, you sir can open up a school tomorrow if you like for shoe making/repairing to really teach our new generation how to love and have passion for this art.
Much respect.
Gorgeous! Love the soles - Spiderman soles! ♥️
Hi Steve. Your 70 degrees (21 degrees Celsius) is the ideal temperature for an air conditioner here in Australia year around. Comfortable in our extremely hot days🥵🥵🥵🥵. Let’s continue😄
You sir are a magician, a teacher and a philosopher.
Really nice to see the set up on how to stitch welt, as well as the usual stitching technique.
Had my wife and I agreeing firmly that people who live ‘perfect’ lives are probably covering that things are grim in reality.
And nobody can appreciate the ups if you never fight through the downs.
anyone else see the glove to the back right of him seem to change positions? no it must be the pasta salad and is 1:40 am. but i swear... ok. love the videos. your ability to make leather goods like or better than new is amazing..
This guys stitching and craftsmanship is on a new scale.
Love your outlook on life. laughter is the best medicine. The best advice when someone is feeling sorry for them selves, "get over it and have a good laugh".
Steve, you know I don't even have any lower legs, but I'd still love a pair of shoes from you! 😂🎩
You keep the atmosphere of YOUR shop the way you want and need it to be!
"Your happiness depends on the quality of your thoughts" So true. Very nice clean design shoe. "More coffee time" with your friend
Another fabulous video, and fabulous result. I don’t comment as much as I’d like to simply because I’m often watching your videos in the great room on our flatscreen after my family is in bed & I can’t comment on it. I love your work. You’re my virtual mentor.
Where else can you get lessons in philosophy, psychology with humor, and a great shoe restoration?? Only here with Steve!! The air conditioning thing...I get that! I have my air on until winter!! I never use the heat! 68° is too hot for me. Great Job, as always! THANKS!,
Great work as always Steve!! The leather filler for those cracks is very interesting. If it can keep the cracks from getting worse it is certainly worth it. Would be interested to see how the uppers look at the cracked areas after a few months of wear. It is obviously much different than professional crack repair for old leather car seats where there is not as much flexing.
Watching you at your craft is so relaxing...
what you did to this shoe made the value higher that the retail price of the shoe :)
You’re a true master of your craft.
I have said this before and I will keep on saying it your dad would be so so proud of you and the craftsmanship you have acquired over the years what a beautiful job please take care and stay safe
I like the life advice at the beginning of the video and how you just let yourself go with the banter and one liners throughout. Keep em coming! Always love your videos but this was a favorite.
Hey man! Appreciate you wise words, and great craftsmanship. Just a pleasure to watch
I love your building... it reminds me of what Fairfax used to be before it became glass and 10+ story buildings. Guy had to lose his beans when he got those shoes back.
Looking good. The customer should be very happy. Nice rebuild ..
Love the Family Photos and of course your spectacular craftsmanship. Top of the season to you, your family, and all your followers.
Well done..absolute transformation my friend. You're a genius Cobbler. 👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾
You are totally correct my friend. Emotions are toxic if left to fester and build. Everything in moderation. Allow those emotions to wash over you but take and relish the good emotions but stifle and curtail the negative ones. Live in the moment of health and wellness and hapiness.
Whitney Houston said in an interview “crack is wack”. You still got it even with all that wonderful work to do!
Another work of art Steveo Wow 🤩 they look to good to ware
Fantastic “project”
👍👍👏👏👏
Strikingly resembling Berluti shoes man 😊 but even better, awesome Steve. I always watch your videos carefully and subscribed long ago and alocate (although Im quite busy Businessman ) special time for your content you are ine of kind for me I really appreciate and feel the values you put on all these items you give second live I really appreciate your efforts even though its not my job Im also doing repairs for mine and Wife and families luxury vintage items purse belts bags jackets etc.Take a good care God may help and bless you ❤😊
being comfortable in your work space is a huge part of being productive. If you're too hot or too cold (I like it cold) you're not in the proper head space and it leads to mistakes. Terrific results Steve, keep up the good work.
Steve again giving a master class on shoe restoration!!!!!!
Lovely work Mr Bedo!!! Always fun to watch brilliance at work! Cheers Mate!
Dear creative artist Steve, words cannot do you justice. However, continue with your creativity so that we and the world who admire your hand and what your laboratory creates can enjoy.
The needle you used to sew the welt on looks like a crochet needle.
Spectacular work...so beautiful! So glad you do this spectacular work. Appreciate you very much!.
Whenever i see you attaching a new lining I can only imagine myself in that position and I’m sure the shoe would be thrown across the room more than once!
Another awesome job Steveroo.... To make up a new lining and sole, I mean that shoe is like brand new, gorgeous....! Fantastic work...! The MASTER.......P.S. Don't blame you on your keeping your work environment the way you like it... GG...IN
Haven't finished watching the video yet (at 44m) - and have said this before, but loving the quality of the work Steve. Stay safe and happy.
Great job as usual. Glad to see you using Stop Crash by LM Professional. Fantastic product. Thanks!
I'm guessing, but these look like they were bespoke shoes? The usual great job. 👍
Maybe
Congratulation STEVE .Great Job .REGARDS FROM SPAIN🎩
OK, last comment
- The inclusion of the minor details was top notch with this video. You were on fire!
- hey man! You skipped hammer time!
- of course, it goes without saying that the end result was amazing.
- I truly feel that this was one of your finest videos both in the work you did/end results, but with the quality of the explanations.
Huge fan of yours, can’t wait to send in my own Florsheim Imperials for the Bedo’s treatment!
YOU MY FRIEND ARE A INSPIRATION FOR ALL THOSE WHO ARE LOOKING FOR SOME KIND OF INSPIRATION IN THESE HARD TIMES. I'VE SEEN PROBABLY ALL YOUR VIDEOS AND FROM THAT YOU SHOW YOUR LOVE OF WHAT YOU DO ,THE PASSION, THE CLASSINESS, AND THE HONESTY OF WHAT YOU DO IS IMMEASURABLE. THANK YOU! SO PLEASE KEEP ON KEEPING ON BROTHER!
Before words of wisdom. Thanks Steve.
What you do with showing your work on UA-cam is smart. You make a little on ad revenue and at the same time rightly show how much value your customer (and future ones) get from using your services. 2 birds with one stone 👍
Good skills Mr . Great to see you doing something that is a trad trade and making some money from it. Those shoes are worth every penny :)
Steve you are a gifted genius.. The industry should find a way for you to do a masters class.. you are the truth
Very informative. I like the way you explain in detail what you're doing and why.
Ok. Those are a WOW. I have serious shoe envy.
Love ur rule on thermostat! I have mine on at 71! 24/7 …365 days a year…way to go Steve! Those are beautiful sir. Love the blue/red design on the soles! Gr8 job!
Wow that was a long one but you did almost everything. Great Job!!!
Steve, you are an awesome guy! I love your perfectionist attitude towards your work! I’m always impressed with the outcome of each project!
What a beautiful job on a beautiful shoe!
The soles always come out looking so beautiful I don't think I'd be able to walk on them.
I can't wait to see you making your own Bedo's shoes, brother. You are getting there.
Great job Steve, oh and you can't beat the sound of the leather wheel cutter!
WELCOME BACK STEVE!! So happy to see you posting regularly again! Means a ton!
Absolutely fantastic work! You never fail to blow me away with your restorations, but this one was seriously impressive. Love it, and love your videos, my friend! Thanks for sharing your work with us!
Amazing restoration Steve!
Those turned out absolutely INCREDIBLE!!!! The new lining you made just elevated them to new highs and I could watch you work all day!!!?
Hi Steve, that is a very classy looking shoe. The colour of the lining and treatment of the sole just makes the whole thing "pop". Absolutely stunning. Much love and respect to you and yours 😁👍
I'm EXACTLY the same way with my air temperature! I never had it as a kid so I always keep it on now. I keep it locked at 70 as well no matter what, and my wife hates it lol.. The electric bill is always crazy but you can't put a price on comfort.
Magnificent Steve they look like new.
Would rather hear the gentle sound of the HVAC than the blaring noise of an air compressor. 👍 Great job and thanks for the lesson.
You are an INCREDIBLE craftsman 🤯
Every video I think you can't possibly do better....and you do 👍👍👍
#shoeguru
You are truly a miracle worker. Amazing!
Another project in the can!! Great work as usual. You are truly a master craftsman. In our "disposable" culture, people with this level of craftsmanship are falling by the wayside. I enjoy these videos so I hope there are more of us "fix it" vs "toss it" folks out there to keep you going a long, long, time! Take care my internet friend!
Nice job…my friend. You’re a rare breed.
WoW 😳. Those look really good 👍🏿 👏🏾.
Hey Steve 🙋🏽.As Usual it's really good to see you today. Alive and WELL ‼️ and Ready to ROCK AND ROLL‼️ IT'S TIME TO MAKE THE DONUTS ‼️ HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY STEVE 🙋🏽👍🏽👌🏾❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🎃. Those shoes were worn to death 🤣😂🤣😂 LOL ‼️. But now they're simply beautiful ❤️
An amazing job as always. It's so good to hear you laughing and humming again.
Let's continue 👍
Love the long video and shoes turned out great as well.
Amazing restoration for a great looking shoe!!! Owner should be extremely pleased!! 69 degrees year round at my house. Hubby calls it a meat locker.
Truly a master craftsman, outstanding workmanship yet again, a pleasure to watch you work sir.
Thank you! Cheers!
I'm continually impressed by the various pieces of specialist equipment you have
Hey steve, ever consider an LED boroscope? You can get them reasonably cheap off amazon. It might help inspecting insides of shoes during the estimation process prior to deconstruction! Very useful to see in inaccessible spaces
Well done! Nice pair of shoes!
Awesome work 🏆🏆🏆🏆👏🏾👏🏾
Fantastic to watch 😊
Thanks for the videos sir, they brighten my world and more importantly provide me with something to look forward to. 😊
Awesome , excellent, marvelous job👍❤️
Worth every penny.
Thanks for the shots of the La Macker, and the blade sharpener. (41:47) I have seen those. Always thought about what they were used for. 70deg's I can relate. Life is to short not to be happy.
New life to that fine pair of shoes. Love the transformation to the spade and fiddle back. Very nice.
FANTASTIC DIFFERENCE!
It might be too labor intensive, but I would love if you marked (time stamped) the start of making each part of the shoe. Edit; and let that heater/air conditioner roar, this is top tier content!!!
Dude!I love watching your videos! You go along working and explaining and all of a sudden BAM! You have this gorgeous pair of shoes!
Staggering to watch the transformation of those two shoes.p
Well done Steve..
Shine on
