holy shit this is good

Hello, I am Rachid from Morocco. I have 18 years of experience dealing with Shoelast. I am looking for factories that need a workforce in this field.

I realize this is 3 years old, but I assume this would also work for a leather gun belt and holster combo from the 80's that has spots of white mold on it, right?

How do I make an order? Where do I go? When are your price ranges? I want to have a pair of shoes made.

Can you reccommend a leather that can be embossed but the boot is floppy like mocassins?

On a cold winter day, I used my wife's hair dryer to warm up and work in mink oil & snow seal when restoring long-lost and dried out work boots. Note to self, heh: Don't use your wife's hair dryer. You will burn it out... . Great video! Just found same pair at bottom of storage bin where, somehow, water had gotten in. One boot totally moldy. Off to find the vinegar (but not the new hair dryer...).

Doesn't the vinegar make the leather stink after treatment?

Can this be done to leather from welding gauntlets? I have some leather from a set that I'd like to repurpose for cosplay.

I was having a really hard time finding a size 15 and a half boot for the sca. Damn. It looks like I'm taking a trip down to Tandy.

Not very good and the reason is because you did not explain why you did not use the beeswax and whether it's an alternative to the weatherproof stuff you used. Confusing.

please do an episode on shoe pattern making

wish bees wax would have worked for me. It molded a few day later.

What do you do with the cast? How do you make the form from the cast?

I just found your channel and what a wealth of information! Thank you for taking the time to make these videos! I wish there were more! I know I’ll be coming back to them time and time again to review the information.

Thank you for showing how to make them, very helpful 😊

In the off chance you see this sir, I was curious about the Mary Rose shoes. Are those in stock?

👍👍

I have a pair of Olathe packer boots that aren't dirty at all they just have a musty small to them - do I follow your steps to get rid of it and do I do the inside as well? Thanks

When you use vinegar won't the boots now smell like vinegar forever?

Just the fact that they are custom made is amazing but also this is an art! Thank you for your advice. C

Wot r u using

I have a black leather couch do I use vinegar to clean and kill the white mold on my couch

do you still offer the large seax's shown in this video ?

Would this therapy work on a jacket?

Sir, what type vinegar is it? is it vinegar seeds like 100% vinegar or just vinegar that is often used for cooking cool video bytheway 👍

Those are cool boots! And wow did you ever spiff em up! New sub after that cleaning and renewing! Thanks.

Yup. The good old off-hand index fingertip injury. I know it well.

This was cute! You’re very funny

Thank you so much! Awesome video. I hope you make more

You should wearing a mask!

Hej i salvaged a leather motorcycle jacket which has green mold on and smells of mold. Will this method get rid of the smell also ? Thanx

Say Bohemond, you made a great video that spoke to me. SnoSeal was our go-to in the days before Gotex and honestly, I think the latter has not place on my feet in cold and wet conditions. Which leads me to you when I found my Danner Sundowner BackPacking boots stored in their box with mold forming. I always clean and dry my boots after use and was surprised to find the invasion. I have two questions: How long in the "sunshine treatment" and best ways to store shoes and boots?

Please wear a mask, the fine dust / mold is dangerous, it can get into your lungs, especially when exposed often when cleaning, take good care!

What ever did they do before sharpies?

Can you not just immerse in vinegar & hot water to clean mould /bacteria/smell on the inside too? My husband & son spend a small fortune on steel toecap work wear boots, throwing them away as soon as they start to look & smell bad & it's not good for the environment or our pockets! 😞

Thats awesome i just made some sockforms myself but since my feet are quite large so after i cut the form apart i cant lay it flat to trace itdo you have a trick for that? I thought about putting reliefe cuts in but then i would lose the extra surface area. Any tips would be much appreciated ❤️

Please help. I used to work in a pizza place and wore my leather boots. Now they smell stinky like cheese. How do I get rid of the odor?

I am so glad I stumbled across your video sir!! Thank you!!

May I use petrolatum wax instead of beeswax? it's cheaper and widely available, would it protect from the mould coming again?

Ive watched both your mini series on making boots about 3 times each. Wealth of information. Look forward to trying to make a pair myself!

Wow 🙂👍

I would be avoiding breathing all that dirt and mold while brushing the boots to start with. I’m all for mask and glasses/goggles and long sleeves. The spores of mold are extremely toxic to the human body.

Thank you for your great video, it was very informative for me. I have a question please, if I want to develop a pattern for horse riding long boots and give them to my shoe maker to customize a boot for me, what would be the way to draw this model?

Thanks for sharing. I had a jacket with them and wanted to duplicate them for a heavy wool sweater.

Beautiful!

Beautiful job!Thank you for teaching us a valuable skill!

My boots have a smelly mildew smell on the outside from being wet almost daily. Is there something I can put on them before this treatment to get rid of that smell?

This is great. Pretty sucky move to send you such dirty boots. I've got some boots that need help and a new sole.
