    This reminds me of the mid ‘60s, and my pop getting a pair of ripple sole shoes for working on a concrete slab all day. Actually, he had a day job in carpentry, and his night job as a machinist at Lockheed Missiles and Space Company. He spoke about how much better his feet and legs felt with those shoes. These were the REAL aggressive ripple soles. I wouldn’t have expected to be visiting that memory watching these shoe transformation videos, but here we go!

    I was driving through Northern Virginia for a training course and I look to my left and see “Bedo’s Leatherworks LLC” tucked between two buildings. I thought of getting a picture with you but didn’t want to interrupt your work. I almost bought a pair of shoes from goodwill just to have you repair them.

    Hi Steve, this is just a quick Hello from Germany. Actually, I am Lawyer and never was into shoemaking or repair so far. Now it had become my passion, thanks to you. I love your craftsmanship and your honest stories and thoughts. You made me curious about JR tannery and I just figured out they are from Trier, Germany’s most ancient city I used to live for a couple of years. Should have known that before I moved.
    Anyways, thanks for doing this entertaining stuff. Keep it coming.

    • @zefdin101
      @zefdin101 4 года назад

      Hello Alfred from the US.
      I can absolutely relate to your story about becoming passionate about shoes & leather work from watching Steve at Bedo’s Leatherwork and RUclips. I too am a manager in the aerospace industry and I went from needing a new pair of shoes for work and being tired of the low quality ‘throw away’ junk I used to buy to watching Steve and other passionate shoe people like Preston at The Elegant Oxford, Andrew Wrigley and his hand made shoe tutorials, to Robert Powers and his great passion for shoes , esp Allen Edmond made here in US, and I realized how incredibly intricate a well constructed pair of men’s dress shoes are and how much more comfortable and long lived they can be, therefore saving you money in the long run.
      Leatherwork and shoe repair and shoe making has become a wonderful creative & artistic haven for me during the pandemic and has brought me tremendous joy!
      You a very lucky to be in Germany where you can more easily visit JR Tannery. If you haven’t already, you should watch Kirby Allison of The Hanger Project and his tour of JR tannery and interview with Hanns Rendenbach. Hanns is a wonderful guy and his family a keepers of an amazing tradition in Germany for generations.
      Really great that hand made shoes seem to be on the uprise and will not die out in this ‘throw away’ culture / world...that would be a tragedy.

    I’ve seen 3 pairs of Imperials while thrifting. If any of them had been 10.5E (guessing) I’d have sent them to you as a gift. Probably still will!
    Have a wonderful day, Steve. Love seeing how much support you have. You deserve it

I truly appreciate your commitment to quality. I have always had an affinity for genuine leather. The hand, smell, patina, love it all. I also love cleaning and polishing vintage shoes, handbags, etc... keep the content coming, and I agree with other commenters that I enjoy watching every second of your work in real time. Fascinated by every bit of it 👞🤩👜

    So I’m not a fan of wedge heels but these did turn out great and clearly you are on the cutting edge of fashion and here’s why...
    I was at a super fancy farm to table James Beard award winning restaurant in Rockland, Maine this fall with my girlfriend. The restaurant is called Primo’s- look it up if you don’t know it. It was really difficult to get a table but the manager/host/sommelier pulled it off for us after hearing that it was her birthday. He was very charismatic, professional and extremely well dressed and knew how to charm the ladies. I noticed his shoes which were a wingtip sneaker- something I had never seen before. I told my GF that this guy is on his feet all the time but can’t sacrifice style so that’s probably why he chose to wear these shoes. Way to go Steve you ladies man you!

    “Crack is cheap, I make too much money to ever smoke crack! Let’s get that straight! Okay? We don’t do crack! We don’t do that! Crack is wack!” 😂😂😂😂

  • @spike.strat1318

    I remember reading am article in American Heritage of Invention and Technology, Rocky Marciano’s father worked at the Florshime factory and got young Rocky a job there sweeping floors. He( Rocky) is quoted as saying that he hated the smell of wet leather and whenever he was in a tight spot in a fight, wanting to quit, he would tell himself that if he lost, he’d be back working at that factory, that would give him inspiration to keep going.
    The article mentioned his favorite shoe, of course he wore Florshimes, Imperial , I forgot the size, in a Savoy last.( not sure what the Savoy last was... a particular foot shape perhaps) Thought you might like to know.
    I have to see if i can dig up that old magazine.

  • @Traderjoe
    @Traderjoe 4 года назад +1

    They came out great! I always worry about that tread pattern, because its find for walking straight ahead on a solid, grippy surface, but if you walk on a surface that slippery and put any kind of sideways stress on your foot, the shoe slides out very easily because of the lines and you easily sprain your ankle. I had a pair of sneakers that had that and went along in the grass until there was a hill in the grass and I slipped so much I had to take the shoes off and walk barefoot to get down to flat land again because it was as if the hill was made of oil and soles made of teflon.
