These Ferragamos we're great fun to work on, and I finally got you guys a customer reaction! Like this comment if you'd like to see more!
Yay!! A new Dan video 😊😊
@Paul Fellows yes jerk off is a real product it is sold by a company called cobblers choice.
Sounds like a great idea.
OK I live in the U.S. and I will do the conversion but I want to know how much a complete rebuild like that would cost me if I brought that pair of shoes to you for that job. I have several pairs of cowboy boots and over the years after having them resolved I know I have spent more than the cost of a new pair of boots but the cost is spread out over about 30 years. Thank you for a great video of your craftsmanship.
Dan how many times do you accidentally step on Ron??🦆
Only one problem with this repair: It looks so nice I wouldn't want to wear those shoes! I'd just keep them in a display case and take them out to look at them now and then. Beautiful!
Lol that’s sad
@@TheR3negadeMaster Who’s got your knickers in a twist?
spent 1k on mine and wore them to my brothers wedding, had to step in goose shit and walk in a GRAVEL parking lot... they look new from the top but the bottoms look like SHIT, literally.
Yeah I feel like having "too" nice of something ruins the joy of actually using it Ya get too sentimental, so I stick with brands that are hyper reliable, like Glock for example.
Definitely agree with you
Can we all just appreciate how there’s no clickbait whatsoever with this man? Straight forward, into the shoe repair and there no 20 minutes of talking and 5 minutes of actual product. This is indeed a subscription from me
Don't ever tell me what to appreciate Jared.

So much respect for someone who has learnt an age old craft like this and to see your passion for your job. The Quality and your shoe repairs is incredible and I’m sure your customers appreciate the attention to detail and love you put into each pair. Well done Dan!
Yes. In this time of cheap machine made junk that you throw away its wonderful to actually watch a craftsman doing an age old craft and he's very good at it 😀 👍 👌
@@jiggsborah7041 100% I doubt such a craft exists in China these days, I may be wrong but it’s very refreshing to see someone repair a shoe as opposed to just tossing them away and buying another cheaply made mass produced plastic and rubber abomination. Well done @tringshoerepairs
@@DinovanderMerwe... hi there...I'm watching from secunda south Africa 🇿🇦. I saw your surname.... I agree 👍 💯...although I have watched old Chinese craftsmen making traditional Chinese shoes the old way. I'm sure that not many young people are taking up the craft however. I hope they are.
@@jiggsborah7041 greetings. Yes, South African here too, currently JHB, originally from Vereeniging. I remember growing up and seeing many of these “shoe repair” places as a kid, none were as talented as this shoe smith but there were many of those stores who either re-soled your shoes, or where you could punch a while in your belt or get a key cut etc. these days everything is cheaper to replace with a badly made short term solution that to actually repair an item that will last you for a lot longer if you spend a little extra to repair.
@@DinovanderMerwe ..yes..and these days people do tend to buy at least one good pair of expensive boots here in south Africa but when they get a bit worn we have to replace instead of refurbishing a familiar well loved pair.
This is not a repair of a pair of shoes, it is the creation of a work of art. Those shoes were spectacular.
I've never seen a shoe repair in my life and now that I have I realized that it's a lost art among us today. Thanks for doing a great job of breathing new life into shoes.
Cheers good comment i was thinking the same 🤗💟
Derric Smith Sr: look at that great artisan: Classic Oxford Shoes HANDMADE in Japan...kzhead.info/sun/gaaHfNyChGWcgac/bejne.html..and than talk about "a lost art"
Machines are taking over. 3D printed shoes and stuff.
I only know of 3 shoe repair guys in our City. It is a bit pricey, but it is extremely well worth it and they are really good.

Dang I feel bad complaining my whole life about overpriced shoe repair. This is a noble trade indeed. Much respect!!
True kzhead.info/sun/hKqgYqaub4Chn5E/bejne.html
Nah that shit isnt that expensive dude just capping
The problem is that new shoes are often cheaper than repairs, because new shoes are made abroad by people who earn like 3 dollars an hour...
Hand crafted anything is incredibly underrated. We are forgetting just how hard it is to make nice things by hand with machines that make good looking stuff all the time.
Yea it's not expensive lol but you probably pay 500 for a pair of J's that even cost 5 bucks to make...
The children are so cute! Good dad for involving them in appreciation of such great workmanship.❤
Dan this video brought tears to my eyes. My late father was a Master Cobbler in Dallas and while I don’t recognize some of the newer equipment, I can remember playing around and frustrating the hell out of my dad using the sanders. Thank you for sharing your video and excellent skills with us. It really did bring back so many wonderful memories.
I just watched someone else's shoe being repaired for 25 minutes and I loved watching every bit of it. Thank you.
Done the exact same thing, really good restoration.
Never in my life did I think I would watch someone repair a pair of shoes!! You are an "Artist" loved every minute of the video. Have a fantastic holiday. 🏴🏴🏴
Exactly.... when this came into my Algorithm, i was like uhmmm... let's watch it ... and then i watched it all and even subscribed!
i loved it .. i wish i could buy a pair from him... just a good quality shoe not a name brand
I'm currently binging repair channels. Always feel satisfied when things get fixed.
Same, nice shoes!!

I found a pair of Ferragamo loafers for 10 bucks in a thrift store . I washed and scrubbed them in a bucket with dishsoap , then stuffed them with newspaper ( changing paper often ) then rubbed them with mink oil and they look perfect , the creases even came out . I had nothing to loose .
Mink oil is amazing for leather goods. I treat my boots with it and always get compliments on my NEW boots, while they're 5 yrs old.😅
@@marciloni12Mink oil ??
@@katarinakatarinovic4854it’s made the same way as olive oil but instead use live mink They put loads of them in a barrel and slowly lower a lid squeezing the natural oils out of the mink 😮
@@liddle13I have some, it’s true . Made from 💯 % pure virgin Italian mink .
Virgin milk?? sign me up as long as she's legal please
That reaction with the kids was a joy to watch. God bless em. This job was incredible, a great way to finish before a well earned holiday. Hope you enjoyed.
It's so refreshing to see someone who enjoys and takes allot of pride in their work, especially considering it's such a niche industry these days. You're a true master of your craft mate 👍
The only reason it's niche is because of the imported junk and molded soles. I myself, prefer a leather sole or a stacked leather heel. I like the look and feel of real leather, not all of the man made garbage. I do find it amusing though that people that refuse to wear fur will wear leather shoes or snakeskin belts/purses, shoes.
@@getin3949 And they eat steak
"allot". Lol
I had a shoes made for me in Honk Kong in 1976 and they were the best shoes ever. Being sensible high heels I eventually even had to stop wearing them which was a very sad occasion, due to Chronic knee issues that resulted in a knee replacement. I gave up the number of times I had those shoes repaired but well worth the effort. Now days living in the tropics I only ever wear Flitflops which are perfect for orthotic issues.
And by the way he is gorgeous and sexy 🧿🧿❤️❤️❤️
Loved the reaction of the owner and his kids. As my wise old grandfather told me, "Invest in a good bed and mattress and a good pair of shoes...... because if you are not lying on one, you're standing in the others!" There's something very satisfying about bringing a well worn, well loved pair of shoes back to their best and in this case..... better than new!
I like it mind if i use it
that a beautiful phrase your grandfather said, seems like the kitchen sing in oracle's kitchen from "matrix" movieю
I don’t know how I came across this video but I love it. This man pays attention to details and for a young modern dude he’s employed old school craftsmanship
Mad respect, I thought this profession was extinct. Very respectable work imo and great to watch!
It's good to see professional repairs in this throw-away age.
buy good product and they can be repaired , keep buying nike and adidas and expect the latter
not much gets thrown away at my home. i have a favorite pair of shoes re soled three times, had them for years and get worn regularly. the last time they were resoled in a prison apparently, and they made a great job too.
I had my pair of Calvin Klein shoes bought at Nordstrom Rack repaired at Nordstrom. Yes, I paid $70 for them to be resoled and new heels, but they are better than they were new; leather soles from Germany, New heels. I would rather repair than dispose of them. I hate waste!
This guy is a magician. I never thought I'd like watching a shoe repair video but now I can say definitively that I have a new appreciation for this craft and this amazing craftsman. Incredible.
I been watching videos about repairs of everything across the board, watches, furniture, shoes, electronics, etc. all stuff I would never had imagined I would be able to sit down for 25+ minutes just watching and be entertained. Fascinating!
What a nice shop!! It's really nice to see artisans like you pursuing traditional work like this.
This guy is awesome! Seems like an awesome dude and one of those guys who looks like he’d just be super intimidating but would be the chillest guy to get a beer with
Years and years living in a world where who is the smartest cheater in the financial market is the king and now seeing you proudly showing us such an underrated job as is shoemaker business is a privilege to see you skillfully restoring an expensive shoe.
A friend of mine is an Italian shoe maker in new York he's father started the small shop back in the 1950s ,after he watched this video he was very impressed ,he said to everyone in the room - this is shoe repair at it's best -
cant do this without true passion
Can't believe how well that turned out. It's more a recreation with your wonderful interpretation of the original than just a repair. Skilful talent.
Dude you are the man , wow you made them that much more sophisticated love the quality and attention to detail.. there is much love in the work you do. Thx 4 sharing
Watching you repairing these Ferragamos made me so proud and happy to see there's more young cobblers just like me in the world! One of the most unique and wonderful jobs!
Seems like a great trade to work in.
you guys are protectors of soles, are you?
@@rubendarioluna3020 BAdumm TSSHH!
I have a whole new appreciate for your trade. You do amazing work... it's nice to watch someone work with the amount of care and pride you put into each shoe.
It is always such a pleasure and just enthralling to watch a true craftsman at work. Beautiful job.
Customers sons reaction was priceless: "you called me in here to open a box of shoes?" meanwhile the daughter knows how to share in the excitement of another persons interests in life. dont worry though, the son will one day appreciate good shoes and the cobblers who spend countless hours perfecting the craft.

Wow. Being in the US I really enjoy seeing this old world craftsmanship. I’m very glad a young buck like yourself is continuing on with what was mostly likely passed to you by your elders. Only one problem, I wouldn’t want to wear the shoes, they’re works of art. John Bull and Uncle Sam until the end.
Sadly it’s a dying craft Just like my alterations Or making coats suits and dresses Not many people want to do it and learn it
Seeing the progress and the craftsmanship that goes into your profession is so soothing
I’m finding myself watching shoe repair and new construction and I can’t believe how entertaining it is. I’m more amazed at the craftsmanship of these masters.
Dan is such an artist. Never thought I would long after a pair of shoes before haha
I have the same cravings, 3 pairs of very nice shoes 2 for everyday use, alternating each other day. A very nice pair for those extraordinary occasions as weddings, funerals, graduations and of course the Nobel prize dinner. And a summer pair of boots, and a pair for nordic winters. They will cost a fortune, but some day the lottery goes well.
Let me tell you I’m not a rich guy but I like to save up for nice things. I wear a suit for work sometimes when I come in from the field so I saved for a pair of Ferragamos. They are the absolute most comfortable dress shoes you’d ever want to wear. I even saved up for a second pair of loafers to use more casually. If you can get yourself a pair. You won’t be disappointed lol
@@chrisdooley6468 Real quality always give a reasonable payback, and if they are upgradeable/restorable the better it is.
@@chrisdooley6468 Thank you for the advice, I heartily agree with you. I will eventual add a pair to my wardrobe, just need to justify it to the fiancee haha
I love how the customers trying to keep his cool in front of his kids but he's so happy with the result
because the kids are... uau shoes ...
Such an artist. Really puts his heart into it.
dude,you're an artist. Never see a sole done like that on you tube. Outstanding. Thank you for sharing
I never thought watching a shoe repair and restoration would be so intensely calming and soothing lol... Who knew
Sus
I was thinking the same thing...lol
Hmmm
Being trained in boot and shoe repair in my youth i loved this, it took me back to how technical and difficult a skill it can be to learn. I understand the joy this guy felt when he looked at his finished job and was amazed at his incredible skill.
well, yeah this dude turns into other dudes to protect our soles. that is a hard job. P.S. just watched the Cobbler with Adam Sandler
that was amazing. I love watching craftsman do this kind of hands on meticulous work.
Accidentally stumbled upon this video but always great to see masters of their craft work. Hats off to you sir.
The customer reaction was fantastic. His subdued wow moment was like a deafening "squee!!!" His face said it all.
Who would have thought watching some shoe repair could be so bloody comforting and relaxing? Thank you so much.
I love all the tools you use. Working smarter not harder is my motto. Your work from what I can see it great.
Love the video and the shoes look like a million bucks, great job. I am so glad people like you keep these skills/craftsmanship alive in this throw-away-everything world.
That sole design, especially the spray effect was incredible. Master at work.
Yes, he really puts his sole into his work.
Wow lol. Spent 25 mins watching shoes be repaired. I never knew it was like this at all, I usually just buy a new pair of shoes. This was incredible! Love the enthusiasm
You definitely sus
It’s refreshing to see people take so much pride in their work.
And the patience as well?!
The amount of care and craftsmanship that goes into this is wild
5:46 I've clearly been watching too many Dank Pods videos as I was honestly expecting this song to jump to a different sound quality.
I started my working life in 1968 as a trainee shoe repairer and quickly escalated into key cutting and hand engraving (using an old dentist drill. Whilst never reaching your high standards, it did bring back many fond memories, especially the fitting and use of the 'naumkeg'. Great job and video
Wow, who would know a sole could look so beautiful. Couldn’t stop watching.
Wow, absolute amazing work... These shoes looking so different and much better now... I really like your passion for your work 👍👍👍
Aside from doing an excellent job, this man is a natural in front of the camera ( if anybody in the industry is watching ... ) and makes this whole thing quite entertaining. I'll watch more !
@Stingray Ha !
This is "the industry" now. Dont want some TV company making a fortune abd giving you hardly anything. This one video might of made him over £2500 by now.
@@krusher74 I meant stepping in front of the camera as a permanent gig. 2500 quid is chump change compared with being on the tele ...

"Oh my goodness!" It's hard to beat the feeling of worn shoes turning into gems.
I love watching a true craftsman who truly loves what he does. 🎉
Thank you for posting this. It's so nice to see the work of skilled craftsmen performing a task to perfection. Mass production may be cheaper but it doesn't hold a candle to the craft of a master cobbler.
When I was in college in North Carolina 25 years ago I got a part-time job with a cobbler and I got to the point where he trusted me enough to do heels and sand soles, and it was the most enjoyable job I've had except maybe a stint as a film projectionist before digital made the job obsolete. It's great to see a young person who's a master at this on KZhead, it's an ancient tradition that needs to be preserved in our throwaway world.
I’ve never seen the process of a shoe repair. This is a work of art! Absolutely beautiful sir! You are a true craftsmen!
I’ve seen many shoe repair videos. This is one of the best. Incredible!
Man you are a true artisan. Very cool to see a master at work.
Really nice to see someone who takes pride in their work, my Dad was a shoe repairer, who also took pride, brought back a lot of memories, Thank you for showing.
Yes I agree
I thought of my dad as well
It's so nice seeing this skill-intensive old craft these days. Even though it can be extremely labour-intensive just as well.
I used to love to watch the cobblers work when i was a kid. True artisans.
You give so much care when repairing shoes. Very passionate!
Probably one of the most impressive looking restorations I've ever seen . Wow.
As a woman I would NEVER have thought I would ever, I mean EVER, thought I would watch a cobbler repair a pair of shoes. Wow!!! I would just go purchase a new pair... your skills are TOP NOTCH. I especially loved the special layering of dye on soles, stunning...thank you for sharing....keep on vlogging!!!! Enjoy your vacation...👞🥾👢🥿👠
I have always had my good shoes repaired by a cobbler. I have a few pairs of Ferragamos myself that I have had re-soled: but nothing like this man’s work!
never thought id watch a shoe repair video, and i did not expect if i did, i would end up watching it all and loving it!
Above and beyond what your customer was expecting, his reaction was great. Outstanding job sir.
Fake reaction
So sad to hear about JR tannery going out of business… their JR leather soles were a staple of your channel.
Truly a loss. And so ends another chapter in history, all in the name of disposable consumerism.
Truly sad to hear. I probably got their soles on 10-12 pairs of shoes. Always amazing quality.
Company cites reasons for closure as deteriorating leather quality (China?), the financial hit of covid, and the move toward rubber soles for comfort and the increasing acceptance and popularity and upmarket acceptance of sneakers - presumably in the office and restaurants etc.
@matt buddy [MattBuddy GNN] i still say it was bobby
Good news! JR has found someone who will make their soles using the JR recipe!
If any of my shoe bottoms looked this good I would never stand up but always have my feet up or legs crossed to show them off. It’s like a work of art on the bottom of your shoe. ❤️
Yeah Id definitely cross my legs to show these off! And I never do that!
Nice job I don’t know why I like watching shoes be repaired but I do. You are one of my favorite cobblers to watch
That is the best custom shoes I have seen in decades keep up the good work I predict a lot of blessings towards you.
That customer is gonna pee his pants when he sees how great his freshly restored and improved shoes came out. I grew up with stories of my paternal grandfather who owned several shoe factories in the 40's and all the old world craftmanship that went with that. So nice to see those skills brought forward. Great video.
Sounds like you didn't watch till the end haha
@@estevanmartins5319 Yeah I missed the customer reaction. Nice to see.
well in Leon mexico , there are still some companies making total handmade shoes , we are making around a hundred million pairs each year , saludos desde mexico
@@santaclaus179 Amazing
The customer will shite his pants when he sees the bill🤫
There's something really satisfying about watching true artisanry.
My dad was a shoe repair man for all his life this video brought back so many memories sitting in his shop .Thank you for this video.
Glad you enjoyed it man
That is indeed a work of art.....Beautiful!!!! thanks for the video
These repairs are such a treat to witness. The craftsmanship and attention to every detail are a joy to watch. The individuals who can simply walk in and drop off their items for this level of work are truly blessed.
"It smells like a cobbler." If there is ever a "cobbler" fragrance, I'd buy it!
They have a highly developed sense of smell.
Sir that was truly Amazing! I would have never given a video like this a chance and yet I could not stop watching your talent. WOW!
i have never commented on a video in my life but this guy deserves a comment and a like. I came to learn how to mirror shine boots and now I'm down the rabbit hole of shoe repair XD Thank you for the content
Customer Reaction: "Kids, what do you think!?" Kids: "Yeah, we don't really give a sh1t, dad."
Love your channel Dan. You do such a great job. Love the jokes and the antics! I'm in the U.S. and I'm 67 years old. When I was a young lad my dad had a shoe repair shop in our basement that he did as a side job. I spent many an hour in the basement helping out with the shoe repair chores. I love seeing all the machines and tools that remind me so much of my youth. Thanks for doing this channel and for being such a positive part of so many people's lives. Please keep the content coming.
I just watched the whole video through! Didn't expect it. I was just browsing KZhead, and stumbled upon this. Your craftsmanship speaks for itself. I subscribed. Amazing repair.
Absolute work of art! Now I want to go buy a pair of dress shoes, wear them out, and send them to you for repair. Look incredible!
My grandfather was a shoemaker. I can’t count how many hours I spent in his workshop just looking at him work. The smells was amazing. I even was put to work doing the soles s on the wood clogs. Always a way to earn an ice cream. My uncle took over the machines and tools. Who knows / I might get them some day Good work.
In the seventies my parents could not afford new shoes so I spent many a evenings at the shoe maker getting repairs to my school shoes and yes, the smell of glue and leather is nice and nostalgic to this day…
Most of the smells are from toxic substances. The glue he is using (an all shoerepairers use) for example is abused by junkies.
I didn't realize how much artistry there was in repair...pretty amazing to watch and be aware of the true skill of a cobbler!
This is not a shoe Repair, it's creating a piece of Shoes ART and that is still an understatement
This is a Masterpiece, not only a repair!!
I used to repair shoes as a parttime job in my childhood. The happy faces of the customers when they see the results is the real reward. I was pretty good at it, I also worked with Johan Rendenbach soles and expensive shoes, but what you show here is the next level. Absolutely a great job!

The fiddleback sole really gives the shoes a bespoke look, and Dan . this is one of the many areas your repairs shine. You hand craft the best looking fiddlebacks! Check out other channels if you don't believe me. You are definitely, without a doubt, the BEST! 🔥🔥👍🏼👍🏼🔥🔥
Cheers my man!
Жаль что в петербурге нету такого классного мастера.
Wow! Didn't know I needed a dose of shoe repairing video in my life!
They look incredible, something as simple as a pair of shoes. What an incredible craftsman.
I never thought I would watch something like this but it's fascinating to see a craftsman at work and all the different steps and processes involved.
After watching this, I can really appreciate what you and others in this type of business do!!!! Love it!!!
It is so enjoyable to watch craftsmanship in action
My first time watching the channel. What an amazing job! My father, A"H, ran a shoe repair business back in the 1960's in Atlantic City, NJ. I remember spending hours in the store with the big machines running, the smell of the leather and polishes...really brings back good memories. Was also good to see a frum family engage your services and really appreciate what the quality and artistry of your work. Thanks for making the video!
What did I just stumble upon...now I'm addicted
Absolutely brilliant. Well done. I never knew so much work went into repairing a pair of shoes. Thanks for the video and showing how it's a art form and hard work.
"Fine as frogs hair" ...!!! I've never heard that. I LOVE it. So cute. Watching your work makes me really appreciate your craft. Thank you for the good, quality content.
Just glad this video was recommended! What an incredible skill
