Every pair of shoes I make is a custom-made pair for each individual client. The production period takes between 40 to 60 days, and the price ranges from $2,500 to $4,500 USD.
I am Italian and I understand "something" about art. I listen to Verdi, Puccini, I read Dante and Manzoni, I look at the works of Raphael, Da Vinci and Bramante and also the clothes of Saint Laurent, Versace, Valentino or the shoes of Ferragamo. And when I want to see how a pair of shoes are made I look at the your magnificent videos because I think your art is at the same level as those great ones I just mentioned. Greetings from Italy and..... a big cuddle to your dog.
I am an Afro German and understand something about the stuff 2. I'm in to the arts of Tupac, NWA, Basqqait, Nietsche, Hesse and graffiti from Iz de Wiz. The swagger of FUBU and vintage Air Jordans, the brand of the unmatched Michael Jordan. This shoemaker's great work is fire and makes me wanna dance like Michael Jackson in the Smooth Criminal video
Thank you Mr. Kim, for this very long and informative video. I'm sure it took a lot of time to complete it. We all appreciate this, and it helps those like me to learn about shoemaking too!
I’m so glad you came up in my feed, love the videos, I’ve went back and watched them all! Keep them coming. Thank you for all the beautiful work you do and taking us along and showing us your process. Amazing!
Wonderful example of shoemaking possibley the best I have ever seen. Love the classic look. You certainly put a lot of skill into these boots from start to finish. Loved doggy in the background pleasant and peaceful. An all round fine example of shoe/boot craftsmanship, very well done, Terry. Well done.
This video is incredible! The amount of time and detail that went into this project with the uppers, the sole and the video, has gotta be close to 60 - 80 hours! Absolutely IMPECCABLE!!
I watched all your videos and this is my favourite of all. The close up views are unbelievable and really help realizing your hard work, your skills, your technic and how you used your tools. Incredible process to watch and so enjoyable. Thank you for sharing.
As someone who used to work in mens fashion and suit making, I would happily sell most of my beautiful dress shoes for a pair of these incredible shoes. Absolutely stunning work.
I find it so amazing that in this day and age, of assembly lines and machine made products that this one artist can create something so beautiful, and all by himself. I'll bet these shoes last a lot longer too. Thanks for the video sir. Keep'em coming. Oh, and your dog is adorable.
Three Points: 1) The transition from 3D curved surfaces to 2D and back again is amazing. Don’t ever computerize it. 2) I hope high-button shoes are not making a comeback. A bespoke pair may be fine, but mass-produced ones will probably not conform to my high instep like tie shoes. 3) I am happy to see this video of your outstanding craftsmanship and hope that you will continue to make them.
I really feel relaxed watching your video sir! I wish you more health, hand stability, and strength to go on with your beautiful hand-made shoes. Amazing and pure craftsmanship!!!
I love your work. The craftsmanship is amazing as well as entertaining to watch. I'm wondering if you have a shoeline for women? If so where may i find the platform ? I'm looking for a craftsman to create my line. If you can assist me; please , any advice will be welcomed.
I so wish it was possible for me to learn this craft here in the US. It’s so hard to find any information and when you do it cost thousands just to learn, let alone the hundreds if not thousands to get the materials, tools, etc. I would love to be an apprentice though. Learning directly from a master shoe maker
Are you expecting to learn a skilled craft like this for free? You’re right, you have to pay a skilled artisan for their time and expertise to teach you and you have to invest in quality tools to produce a quality product. There’s a reason bespoke shoes cost thousands of dollars. It’s because the artist producing them has spent years and lots of money learning and practicing. I’d bet money that the only artists who didn’t pay to learn and are at this skill level were taught by their parent.
@@LuvMyCardiKids I fail to see anywhere in my comment about wanting / expecting learning a craft to be free. I simply pointed out that one of the reasons I personally am being held back is because 1) it’s a hard craft to find people willing to teach around my area and 2) it’s very expensive. So the whole passive aggressive comment from you is just unnecessary lol….
@@PLC11 it’s totally possible for you to learn this craft here in the US. There are schools all over the US that teach. But you don’t seem to want to do that because it costs. Yes, you could apprentice but you know apprenticeships aren’t free either. The bottom line is that it is going to cost you thousands to learn this craft whether you go to school or whether you find an apprenticeship. That’s the reality of learning any trade.
@@LuvMyCardiKids with all due respect no shit sherlock…… you’re saying things I already know and yet once again I never once implied I want or expect things to be cheap or free. I simply stated that I personally ( I like me, not talking about anyone else), just don’t have the means to pursue it so I watch videos and enjoy the craftsmanship from afar. It’s really not that deep….. chill lol
If you live in an area, where there is no shoemaker around, or you are in another job, or whatever.... there are online courses available. I learn with Sveta Kletina. She has several courses on her website, I bought the whole bundle that was available by then, and bought some additional courses later. Her courses are very detailed. If you buy her courses you can also get her support when you have questions. There are also other online courses in the internet. I think you can learn as well from Terry if you become a member on this channel. My collegues are teasing me, that by the amount of money and time and injuries ( be ready to cut your fingers😅 ) I could have easily bought a couple of bespoke shoes. Yes, but I would have missed the deep joy of learning this craft. Still learning to the end of my life. Happy shoemaking!
Can you do series what equipments do you use and what are those for. I'd really like to learn and make one for myself, This is something I feel passionate about and honestly never felt bored. THANKS FOR THE VIDEO. LOVE AND RESPECT FROM INDIA.
So my question of the day would be was this skill in Nate in you or were you formally trained? And do I have to tell you brilliant job spats was exquisitely made.
salut , magnifique mais quand je lis de A à Z c'est sans dire dire qu'il va manquer le M montage le P piquage et quelques autres lettres de l'alphabet !! certes la vidéo aurait était plus longue peut être trop à votre goût !!?? mais tout de même ça rend le titre de la vidéo un poil trompeur si l'on s"attend à vraiment tout voir de la fabrication !!! de ces magnifique bottine je le reconnais vraiment !!! le plaisir à regarder reste intact mais cela génère une petite frustration si l'on s"attend à pouvoir certains détails !!! merci tout de même pour ce réel plaisir à regarder !! force et respect
Mais qu'est-ce c'est beau 😍 ce sont des bottines de rêve. J'adorerais avoir ce genre de bottine à bouton mi cuir mi Harris Tweed 🥰 ce serait encore plus beau. Bravo Monsieur 👏👏👏
I am so glad you decided to re-post this video. You took it down so fast the last time I missed it. You have a lot to offer to the world. Your skill is world class! Your craft is needed in this day and age. Something that isn’t political, or derisive. Instead you offer truth. I wish you would reconsider your hiatus. I think the world needs your patience, skill, and videos. It means a lot to me. I have watched everyone of your videos, most of them multiple times. This artistry cannot be found anywhere else on RUclips. Don’t get me wrong there are others. But I can’t take Trenton and heath shamelessly plugging their brand while ruining a good repair video with too much talking. Neither does Soriano Yosui hold a candle to your cinematography. The story you tell with shoes crafting is inspiring. If there are any negative comments ignore them. The trolls are always trying to bring others down because they have no talent. You have a gift! Show it to the world! and your apron top derby truly inspiring! The boots are amazing too!

I could watch the mid-sole part all day. The shaping and channeling. You make it look easy which is a sign of a master.
There's no midsole in this pair. I guess you were talking about insole, which is honestly a difficult part of a process
@@CapitanAP Yes, the insole. Thank you. Your technique is flawless
@@KevinWolffart I'm not the author. And unfortunately my technique at this moment is a bit away from being flawless
I really appreciate you sharing this longer length version of this shoe build, great work and I enjoyed both versions.
Thank you for filming this, it's awesome to watch. I wish I had a pair of boots like those.
Thank you very much for leaving a comment.
You are a true artist the quietness,the care that is taken, I found myself mesmerised by the whole process .Keep up the wonderful work.

Mr. Kim. You make shoes, with art. His work is comparable to that of Leonardo da Vinci. Congratulations.

안녕하세요 우연히 채널을 들어와서 시간가는 줄 모르고 봤습니다
1년에 딱 10켤레만 제작하신다니 진정한 장인정신이 느껴지네요.
저희 아버지께서 곧 칠순이신데 젊었을적 멋쟁이셨던 아버지께 구두를 선물하고싶습니다
혹시 개인주문도 받으실까요?
A master of your art
wow ! какой же это труд! на создании каблука - зависла, очень занимательно. спасибо
Thank you very much for leaving a comment.
This is ART!
신고 다니는 구두가 아니라 완전 예술작품, 정말 대단하십니다~!
I notice you do a lot with your right arm/hand. Have you ever tried learning to be more ambidextrous in your work? Thank you for the fabulous video!
Remmend to watch this video. You will learn about shoe making trade better. Good show.
Magnificent work of art and patience exquisite 👏👏👏❤
Your work is exemplary, thank you for sharing your art with us, kind regards from Scotland. 37:57
You, sir, are a true master craftsman.

what kind of watch is that? Original strap?
Beautiful shoes.

Well done !

Wonderful.
What's the purpose of the little V notch on the edges of the pattern?
It's to distinguish between the medial and lateral sides of the shoe.
Is that a tamper (for espresso)?
Espetáculo de trabalho ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
👏👏👏 I wonder how to order this shoes?
Simply amazing 🤩🤩
Perfect!
Hi sir I live your work can you send me the pattern of this beautiful boot ? Size 41
Работа шикарная 👍 Но кто такое носит? Очень странный фасон.
Разве мало сейчас носят странного, да еще и пошитого «ногами»? Думаю тот, кто любит выглядеть броско будет носить такую пару, да еще ручной работы.
Do you make your own lasts?
How to spring shoes pattern? Springing pivoting rotation ....
??
would love to own one of those 🤩
Wow!
Браво.. Хочется узнать цену
How much as you asking, can you make one pair fe me..?
Does anyone know if Mr. Kim makes theses shoes beyond the video...
Kindly,
Kurt
how much these cost?
You are the most incredible shoemaker in the world.
