Stridewise having an existential crisis at realizing he's been incorrectly saying boots have "cork midsoles" this whole time on his videos. Great video and keep them coming!
The holes are to prevent “sink” That’s a term used in the molding industry. Sink happens in thick sections of material as the material cools it shrinks and leaves a depression in the finished material. And that can be unsightly.
This is effectively the experience we all wish we could have with our favorite cobblers! Just wish there was a trade school nearby so I could learn this wonderful craft too.
I think the general consensus is that Nick was very much the "kid being shown how to do grown-up things by his dad" in this video and it was heartwarming
Must have been a long day... If you look at the window in the back...The video starts with day light then ends in the dark. I can watch this stuff all day long!!!
Nick starts out calling him “frustratingly handsome”. Sounds like Heath might not have liked some of the off camera attention he was getting. Us southern boys ain’t used to some of that big city stuff. 🤣🤣🤣
It's nice to you get out to Outback once and a while....It's good to other parts of the country other then Brooklyn....I really enjoy both channels....
I actually remember when we had several cobblers in our side of town that re-soled our shoes as a kid. It was a 10-minute process that had normally double your shoe life, at least till you were ready for the next size up.
Think of all the sweet, comfortable miles you will get from a good pair of boots, already well worn in. Function like new, but comfort of old. Yes, the red thread was definitely a pop of color and not a bad idea at all.
@@Stridewise and did you see the green Vibram lug soles they put on a pair of old boots? I am uber conservative and they looked right at home, not crazy, but like they should be there. Made me change my mind!
15:20 You can install a big air duct right in front of the bench where you use the glue and hook it up to a big duct fan that blows the air out of the building. You also can get away with a smaller one if you do the work more closely in front of it. Maybe one of these aluminum ones hanging from the ceiling. Those can be bent to the right place. You also need to let the air in somewhere. For this you can just open a window. I guess a fume hood like in a chem lab would be overkill.
Love this. I'm a subscriber of Trenton and Heath and this came up on my suggested. Heath is a proper silver fox, as a lady of a certain age I think he's damned fine. Loved watching this as Heath is explaining things and answering questions as he's going which adds a different dimension to the craft. I think the other chap in the video needs to adopt the 'assisting surgeon' stance, it's really good for getting in and engaged, also makes you look like you know what's happening even if and when you don't ;-) .
Fascinating, got my first paid og Red Wings yesterday for Christmas :D I sized down, they're hard to get on, but once on they fit, although a little narrow but I have a feeling once brokenb in they'll fit perfectly.
You know some moc toes have shanks (eg Grant Stone's, Thursday) bc people find they add stability and arch support, but you're right I've learned that they're not always put in moc toes
Nice video Nick. Your boots are looking way better then before after resole. And specially the red stitching on welt pops. I reckon if you put red laces on these boots that will take them to the next level. Cheers! Love from Australia
Watching these guys and Dan at Tring, I have decided to start buying nice leather boots. I have always kept it cheap because I thought cobblers were a dead breed. These guys however, these guys are good!
I'm definitely getting mine resoled when they need it, thank you for this, it really does add a lot more life in the boots! I also love that colour leather... Future purchase... I'm becoming totally obsessed with denim and leather XD
I always wondered if cobblers match the original stitch holes in the welt, otherwise the GY welt would have a limited lifespan. Interesting that they can dial in the spacing to match. I would have put lug soles on, but that’s so personal. I think these look way better than new. What a great pair of boots! Cool video, thanks guys!
I have those exact charcoal rough n tuff Moc Toes ... super premium leather that was a nightmare to break-in ... but now they fit like gloves. Will be sending most (if not all) my resoles to Potter and Sons.
@@jaystavros7177 didn’t check branock, I went with the same size as my iron rangers 9.5 D which is 1 full size down from my sneaker size of 10.5, feels good to me.
Hey Nick, so since Trenton replaced the cork filling did you have to break in the boots for a second time? What was it like? EDIT: seems like it's already addressed in the video 😛 just need to watch a bit more
You need to heat both parts in the same time, for instance under '' flah oven'', but also with the heater sitting on the bench, to free your both handsp
The layers of contact cement plus glue mixed with cork on a resole prove that it doesn't matter if your soles are rubber or leather, neither are going to breathe.
Love this video guys! I just a pair moctoes that I eventually plan on switching the stock soles to different crepe. I also want to switch the midsole to leather but would you recommend going with a thick midsole? Possible a quarter inch thick? Would there be any benefits? Appreciate your videos and everything you do!

Hahaha! I'm always learning!
"That's the manliest shit I've ever heard" - indeed
Nick is like a child watching his dad fix something for him.
Pretty much!
You can definitely tell Nick doesn’t work with his hands lol…
@@JJ-lu6mg Hey I type
Love it. Nick totally looked like a little kid being shown how to do things by a grown up but I know I would have done exactly the same thing
That's exactly the mood!
The holes are to prevent “sink”

This is cobbler fan fiction.
Man I'm so jealous! I wish I could resole my boots with Heath! I Love and watch all their videos!!! The boots look Awesome!!!
Glad you like it dude!
I’m glad he put you to work!
I filmed one with Bedo's Leatherworks too and he made me do a lot more work!
I think the general consensus is that Nick was very much the "kid being shown how to do grown-up things by his dad" in this video and it was heartwarming
This is very true, I read your comment out loud to my buddy and we laughed
Why have I been waiting for this colab for so long!!
Must have been a long day... If you look at the window in the back...The video starts with day light then ends in the dark. I can watch this stuff all day long!!!
Yes I was amazed how long and in depth the process was!
Heath really seemed like he wasnt having Nicks shit in this video. Everyone has off days. I love both channels.
Haha he's just more taciturn than Trent
I noticed the same. Was he having an off day? Maybe he had some shit to do that he had on his mind.
When Heath talks he is purposeful with his words.
The other guy talks so much, and quickly but isn’t saying anything truly meaningful or additive.
Nick starts out calling him “frustratingly handsome”. Sounds like Heath might not have liked some of the off camera attention he was getting. Us southern boys ain’t used to some of that big city stuff. 🤣🤣🤣
I was secretly hoping for a Ghost moment where Heath would guide your hands through the movement. Haha. Loving these collabs!
that's so funny. if only i could get the music rights
It's nice to you get out to Outback once and a while....It's good to other parts of the country other then Brooklyn....I really enjoy both channels....
Thanks Billy! I go all over :)

I have never seen Heath look so nervous during filming
I think he was more frustrated or annoyed lol. Maybe a little too much bourbon the night before.

Yeah I really like it! Trenton was telling me I was going to regret it haha but I decided (much later, after stressing needlessly) that i love it
@@Stridewise and did you see the green Vibram lug soles they put on a pair of old boots? I am uber conservative and they looked right at home, not crazy, but like they should be there. Made me change my mind!
@@Stridewise are these the type of quality boots I want for extensive miles of walking? I'm sick of wearing running shoes.
Too much handsome in one room
I'm just reflecting Heath's handsomeness
Great video!! Love the in depth! They do amazing work and really are meticulous about their craft!
Yeah they truly love the work, really inspiring guys

It was so satisfying to see those boots finally with a new outsole!
Haha glad someone was invested in their journey :)

Awesome 👏😎Heath is an amazing cobbler ‼️
What an awesome experience Nick! Consider me jealous lol.
Glad you liked it Jimmy!
Because of the wedge sole it doesn’t need a shank. Where the iron Rangers because of the heal need the shank.
You know some moc toes have shanks (eg Grant Stone's, Thursday) bc people find they add stability and arch support, but you're right I've learned that they're not always put in moc toes
@@Stridewise not just boots, flat sole sneakers and Chukkas to.
I love cobbler videos. They're so relaxing.
Yes they are! Glad you found this one enjoyable.
I was so longing for this resole video to come out since you said you got your redwing moctoe resoled!! Great color choice for the stitch!
Yeah grey and red go great together!
Fascinating video! Who knew there were so many steps involved in resoling? And just knowing that the end product will be some good looking boots! 🔥
I know right? I foolishly thought it was kind of simple until i took part in this
Just started watching your channel and this video is so satisfying after watching the milage on those mocs . Great content
I’d love to see Nick grow up and become a cobbler.
I'm going to Guatemala to learn how to make a pair of boots next month!
I love watching their videos and the way he uses that knife it’s crazy
Really glad you found this video man!
The hot cork segment is definitely the highlight of the video. It shows my one complaint about Red Wing Heritage Moc Toe Boots, no shank.
Nice video Nick. Your boots are looking way better then before after resole. And specially the red stitching on welt pops. I reckon if you put red laces on these boots that will take them to the next level. Cheers!

Good idea!
Great content gents, well done.
Thanks Matt! This video was a big operation
Truly an interesting collaboration!
Glad you liked it Jose!
Watching these guys and Dan at Tring, I have decided to start buying nice leather boots. I have always kept it cheap because I thought cobblers were a dead breed. These guys however, these guys are good!
I feel like I just had some quality family-friendly Bro Time. Cheers, fellas.
Love this
Very nice boot video, thank you both.
Great watching you teach
Awesome collaboration Nick. Big fan of both channels. Keep doing your thing.

Glad you got around to watching it! I just visited them again for more videos
I like your choice of threads. Yes, the red really pops and let's face it, few if any will notice it. If you like it, go for it.
😂 their interaction was pure comedy in a few subtle ways… priceless
lol Ricky Gervais-like
@@Stridewise spot on!
@Nick A follow up detailing the new break-in, fit and comfort of your recently resoled RW Moc-toe boots would be appreciated. Thank you!
Great collab video! You seemed genuinely excited every step of the way 😄
You guys should offer a fan this opportunity... This is cool! @TrentonandHeath
I have those exact charcoal rough n tuff Moc Toes ... super premium leather that was a nightmare to break-in ... but now they fit like gloves.
Will be sending most (if not all) my resoles to Potter and Sons.
Love those guys!
Thanks Drake!
I like the red stitching!
Me too Dave!
them red stitches are on point
Those guys are royalty when it comes to resoleing boots! 😁👌🏽
I know where im gonna resole my Perry’s if I ever get through that sole.
How’s the sizing on the Perry’s? What brannock size are you vs what you ordered if you don’t mind my asking?
@@jaystavros7177 didn’t check branock, I went with the same size as my iron rangers 9.5 D which is 1 full size down from my sneaker size of 10.5, feels good to me.
Kork is a filling, probably the best, between insole and intermediate sole,
Best is to use natural cork, and use natural glue, as wheat glue or rubber dissolution
Love this video Nick!
Great video! I enjoy both channels.
To answer the question "why are there holes in the vibram christy"... its to help relieve any air bubbles when you glue it to the mid sole.
Just bought a pair and will be sending mine into them when they need new soles.
Even i wouldn't resole it myself, but this is very satisfying to see how to resole by professional
Great video . Good info. I have my first pair of Thursdays caption boots. Maybe next year I will get a pair of Wolverine 1000 Mile boots
Great call on the red
I think the red thread pairs way better with that leather than it would with oro lecagy
yeah i really love the red thread
Trent and Heath are guys that I want to hang with lol. It’d be awesome to have this opportunity to work on a pair of shoes, and see the process.
I love the video, especially the little awkwardness you did.
He's an intimidating master
I subscribed because your awesome and your boot reviews are very good. 😊
I can respect a white collar guy willing to get there hands dirty.
I love this video, and I am already a subscriber of theirs.
Awesome video man!
this is like sesame street for adult men. instead of going to a bakery with elmo, we're learning how boots get resoled.
Brought to you by the letters T and H!
What a great experience.
I was so happy to be there
Was he annoyed the whole time every time you asked a question?
I’m glad I’m not the only one who noticed that
@@OGBunney he’s like stfu Aussie
Always remember "chicks dig scars"
Hey Nick, so since Trenton replaced the cork filling did you have to break in the boots for a second time? What was it like?
EDIT: seems like it's already addressed in the video 😛 just need to watch a bit more
You need to heat both parts in the same time, for instance under '' flah oven'', but also with the heater sitting on the bench, to free your both handsp
Heath is never without his trusty OLFA L-2.
One day I would like him to try making his own cobbler specific knife like Bootfury.
You did it, buddy!!!
The layers of contact cement plus glue mixed with cork on a resole prove that it doesn't matter if your soles are rubber or leather, neither are going to breathe.
Exactly 🤣. And your uppers won't breather because of the Thermo plastic toe/heel puff and nylon reinforcements
@@jensrb50 Your uppers might breathe because of that big hole in the boot where you put your foot :-) . As long as you don't lace it really tightly
RED STITCH IS FIRE!
Yeah I really like it Gabe!
Great video Nick 👍
Glad you enjoyed it Andrew
Was I the only one holding my breath when he was sanding down the shoe with the shoelace dangling.
@stridewise can you please make a video with Brian the boot maker?
I tried when I was in LA and he didn't have the time! One day :)
Heath always seems like a nice guy...and he makes it seem really easy, which I am sure isn't the case.
Dude cobbling and shoemaking is SO HARD
Cool Vid Nick, wish I was there learning that
Maybe next time, Benjamin! Glad you liked it
If you have to be home sick, what could be better than binge-watching SW videos?
well hot dog Jon it's very touching you'd use your precious recuperation time to watch my gobbledigook!
3 other guys in the world with red stitching on their Red Wings.
Yeah. Wyatt, his dad, and Uncle Tony. 🤣
Great video guys
Thanks so much!
Hi Nick. I've seen these boots after they were resoled in previous videos. How long ago was this filmed before you released it?
Amigo Bonito trabajo nice work saludos desde sacramento California
Red stitching for Red Wing seems appropriate.
Gotta love that hot courke
Probably zero other guys with red stitching! 😂 What watch is that you’re wearing?
Great video! Maybe one day I'll get myself a pair of Redwings.
Careful, these heritage boots are addicting.
Great to see 👏
Love this video guys! I just a pair moctoes that I eventually plan on switching the stock soles to different crepe. I also want to switch the midsole to leather but would you recommend going with a thick midsole? Possible a quarter inch thick? Would there be any benefits?

Weird, love both these channels but I didn’t see any chemistry between these two fellows. Kidding guys
heath is just a rugged hearty fellow lol, nicks about to have one solid boot and one flopping apart
oh because i'm bad at boot resoling?? yes, that's a fair assessment
@@Stridewise precisely
