For the longest time, it seemed to be just guys watching, but we have been getting a lot more lady viewers recently. We love it! Thank you for watching!!
@@TrentonHeath are you kidding me? 2 attractive men who work with their hands and have a lovely southern drawl? I'm amazed your viewers are 80% ladies 🤣
Who woulda thunk a cobbler youtube channel would be so inspiring. I just ordered $115 worth of saphir products LOL. Can't wait to start rejuvenating my shoes.
Potter and Sons shoe and boot repair videos are the HGTV of footwear repair! Trenton and Heath are shoe and boot refurbishing experts! It would be fun to see how pleased your customer was to see his as-good-as-new....even better than new...boots after their transformation!
All I heard was "Big Daddy Hammer" 😳😂 These videos are awesome! I know nothing about shoe making but I'm enjoying this channel immensely. Lastly, Heath - your hairstyle is 👌. Colour and cut = LOVE.
i dont mean to be so offtopic but does anybody know a tool to get back into an Instagram account? I was stupid lost my account password. I appreciate any assistance you can offer me
The educational content of your vids is nothing short of mind boggling. Thank you for being so willing to share what has clearly taken many, many years for you to acquire. This channel is what every channel should strive to be.
Truthfully it's not really shocking at all back in the day you had a pair of shoes you could actually have them for years that's all they did you just took them down they put on a new sole that's why some shoes and boots cost so much their made to last a lifetime.
You guys should make a reality show. You guys have that look for TV. Each episode can include the story of the customer who brought the shoes in for repair and overly enthusiastic comments on how you guys repair the shoes. I'd watch it
Please set the shoes down on the work table so we can see the see how they look! They look great, but it would be nice to see the finished shoe standing alone. Thanks!
Luis Perez Thanks for the feedback. We heard this from several folks, so you’ll notice in our newest videos that we sit the shoes down. Thanks for the follow!
Hey guys love this episode so much I just invested in my first pair of 1000 mile boots last night, I get them in 2 weeks I’m getting them delivered to Glasgow, Scotland I’m a bit excited about them coming I’m like a big kid waiting on a new toy lol but I’m 50 this year I’ve always been a shoe guy but you’re explanation of leathers and welts etc really hit home about proper shoe care thanks 👍🏻
I really enjoy watching your craftsmanship, so thank you for sharing! I have to ask though, given the time and effort these restorations/repairs take, and what your time, skill and knowledge must be worth, would it not be cheaper to buy a new pair of boots? I’m not saying your time isn’t worth it, quite the opposite, by all appearances these boots are better than new. These videos are causing me to look more closely at my own boots and appreciate them more.
Do you have a more full-fledged video of how you did the uppers on a shoe that was as old and worn and scuffed up as this one? I have a shoe that's in similar state visually, and would love to see it get the love it needs. I'm not looking get them to a mirror shine (boots don't lend themselves to mirror shines, do they?), just make them look like good well-cared for boots.
That's what I thought too! I think in a later video they resole a 1000 mile that has a shank but it is not metal, but wood/composite or something like that.
I really like your videos and the work you do. I think it would be great if the videos showed more of the actual work being done even if that would make the videos longer.
I still don’t understand why American shoemakers only stitch the front of the sole and nail the back instead of stitching all the way around. It’s like furniture makers using cardboard backing-cutting corners to save costs. When I showed my 1,000 Mile boots to a French cobbler, he pointed out the shoddy manufacturing, and I was disappointed but had to agree. European Goodyear boots are much better made and sold for almost the same price. It's very disappointing.
All I can say is wow! So I have a pair of Wolverine boots that need re-soled. Black over the ankle safety toe. Went to website, $195.00 to resole. Went to Wolverine website $184.00 brand new. Kinda a no brainer, huh!
Just another case of 'good quality boots will last for years'! Having worked in various heavy industries, I've told a lot of guys along the way 'if you aren't putting down half-a-week's wages or more for boots, you are buying 'temporary shoes' that MIGHT last half-a-year. Good boots are repairable, rebuildable and worth the 'front investment'...Whites, Danners, even Red Wings...but if 'Goodyear Welt' doesn't get mentioned, I normally pass by the 'wallie world' junk...it's just not worth it.

Very good video. Good job. Please change the music. That repetitive noise is making me crazy. Please find a way to focus your camera. Almost all of your close-ups are blurry. Repetitive noise along with blurry pictures makes me want to abuse cannabis. I don’t even smoke cannabis. Very good video. Good job. Brian the boot maker would be proud.
I wish you guys...with your sense of quality, and style, would make an everyday, light use but long wearing lace up boot. Not too dressy, not to work inspired, but a boot you can wear everyday, like a sneaker. Cross between a 1000 Mile and a Thursday boot. Keep it a reasonable price like a Red Wing. Keep it generic design and colors. So it can be replicated easily. Think iPhone...where they tell the consumer what they like. An everyday is needed. Boot manufacturers worry too much about Sprint runs, one offs, etc. I just wish they would make a boot that is always a fallback, always a given. Just something you buy because they are reliable, and never go out of style, like a pair of Levi's. Thanks guys! Soon as my Red Wings, 1000 Miles, or Chippewa boots need resoled. I will be sending them to you!
Hi guys. Been watching now for a while, great shows. I just got some Frye harness boots as a gift. I don't see that you have reviewed them for construction or care; do you have any advice on how to care for them?
Hello Trenton, Hello Heath. Your entire story is really impressive, and should serve as an inspiration to young people everywhere. That you followed a passion, made a sacrifice and took a risk is testament to your success and hopefully continued growth. I am a business owner, which I set up with a budget of ZERO and a borrowed computer. Nearly 20 years later it's still going, and still growing. People ask how it's done, and by watching you I know you've used the same formula as me: Belief, passion, and most importantly, hard work. There's no other way around it. I have a pair of C&J SHell Cordovan boots, I wonder if they'd work with a nice leather sole? I know they're boots, but I like to wear them with a suit, and can't help but think a nice fiddle waist would look incredible. Any thoughts on such a change?
In every shoe restoration I have seen in tube, shoes looks like owner hasn't cared them a bit. I just wonder why people buy 200 to 500$ boots and then don't take care of them. Of course soles wear out but whole boots look like they've been picked from dumpster and used 20+ years before they've been thrown out. These shoes might be comfy but doesn't give any support to feet. It isn't hard to take care of your investment as Trenton & Heath have shown. I have 20 year old winter boots and 10 year old work boots and they look better than these. Of course those boots are just 200€ boots and with cemented rubber soles. It is important to rotate shoes and let them dry and they last longer.
How much on average would a service like this cost, as opposed to just buying new boots? Curious because im somewhat new to the quality boot and shoe world and looking to invest in a pair of nice boots i can keep for years.
I think this would be around 100\120$, but you only need a complete resole of the whole thing once the welt opens up. These are work\casual boot, so they naturally take lots of stress with more use, but it may take years to get shoes in those conditions. The regular repair you'll have to do is the replacement of the heel exterior part (one of the 2-3 layers you see) once in a while, depending on your boots rotation and walking habits.
Yeah you'd be surprised! Leather soles are pretty grippy. If it's a little damp out,and the sole picks up some moisture,they really got a good bit of traction. On icy sidewalks etc. just stop for a moment and let the ice wet the sole a little and you ain't gonna slip! I love leather soles.
I have a pair on 1000 miles. It seems like the original sole is pretty thin and wears away quickly. Is that true across the board for this brand? I'd like to get them resolved with JB soles.
Hi, a new pair of 1000 mile boots do not come with a shank. Those you are working omg have. Do you know anything about why they don't come with a shank anymore?
I feel comforted that not everything has to be made in stinking China through your videos. I think what you were trying to say is those heel block nails are 'ring shanked' like some carpentry nails. An example of where you would use these in my trade are on a gate that sees repetitive slamming that would cause a smooth shank nail to slowly back out.
I must be doing something wrong. I see you put leather soles on all kinds of footwear. I can't stand leather soles. I slip and slide all over the place. The only time my motorcycle was ever on its side was because of leather-soled cowboy boots that I should not have been wearing.
I need to hit you guys up. i have a pair of Wolverine 1000-mile wingtip boots in a two-tone brown color and they need to have the soles and heels re-done. These look great!
Johnny Vichi Haha...glad you enjoyed! The customer has had them for quite a while. They had been resoled before. Yeah, GYW shoes can take a beating. Thanks for watching!
Holy cow! Amazing work. I love watching masters at their craft. Can y’all post a video of well made shoes and boots that you recommend? I love the look of the Horween leathers.
Thanks guys, that was awesome! I have the same pair of boots and I love them -- and wear them -- to death. Only problem is that the tongue doesn't sit properly on them, it always slides down to the side. Is there anything that can be down about that?
I have the same problem with my English Docs. I haven't fixed it yet but a solution I heard about is to make an incision in the tongue to run the lace through that should keep it in place.
I never understood leather soles.. no grip and soft soles? Why would have it considering the purpose of a shoe is to protect your foot from the elements.
Great job with this boot restoration project. It’s nice to see that you use quality products throughout the process. Saphir products are about as good as you can get. Nice job with the video! Keep up the good work.
Lol I was laying in bed watching and I hear the hello gentlemen and I turn around and tell my husband “Pfft, he’s not being inclusive.” Mostly as a joke, I like to joke with him that I love how the youtuber from The Report of the Week makes everyone feel acknowledged, even my furbabies with his greeting at the beginning of his videos. So anyway he just smiles and goes back to sleep and I scroll down to comments and see others pointing out that it’s not only gentlemen watching. Lol I laughed out loud and woke him up again. I love that in the newest videos you’ve included ladies. I appreciate that. I have found a new binge worthy channel and have shared your videos with my siblings and parents. My family is from Guanajuato, México and the state is known for its leather and shoe making along with the mummies. My dad always wanted to learn this trade or rather this artistry but never did and now he gets to watch it at least through youtube. He doesn’t understand a word but watches none the less. #EndRant lol thank you guys.
Sui Caedere Haha...we really appreciate you watching...and for sharing our videos with others! 😉 Of course ladies are welcome as well. We weren’t sure, when we first got started, if women would enjoy these repair videos, but our female subscriber base has definitely been growing. 👍🏻 Hopefully these videos are helpful for everyone. Thanks again!
Hello! I’d love to know what kind of long lasting shoes/boots and work shoes/boots you recommend for women. It’s so easy to find these kinds of shoes for men but I’ve been having trouble finding some made for me Love what you do, I’d appreciate the help, xx
Y’all ever resole a pair of these 1000 miles with a wedge? I know they make a wedge version now but I’m curious how they’d look or compare if they were resoled with a wedge instead.
Makes me wonder how many miles I've put on my boots...had em for five years and all i ususally gotta do is replace the insoles and they're good for a good while. But I usually walk an average of like a couple of miles a day at work..sometimes up to 17 miles a day
There's also females loving to watch and thumbs up.... not just the gentlemen :)

This is the type of work that was meant by the saying, "Made in America".
Trenton, why do you assume only guys watch your videos? Please acknowledge the women in your audience too.
Great work! I have a pair of Wolverine 1000 Mile boots and need the resoled. What was the final cost that job?
57Canham 100 - 150
Probably more in the 200s with the new welt and heel blocks.
I find it interesting that T&H never answer these cost questions; it's always viewers. Do they not want us the know how much their services cost?
If you want the best.... Quality is a good value, but too few folks realize this and wonder why their shoes fall apart in 6 months.
You edited way too much, I would have like to see more of the steps.
Still waiting for this guy to say "Nationwide is on your side".
He does sound a little like peyton manning, lol
I'm picking up more of a Stone Cold Steve Austin 😂
When you pronounce the word on as “own” does it sound weird to hear people actually say on?
What's your opinion of the Wolverine 1000 mile boot? Good value? That pair certainly took a beating and was nicely rejuvenated.
Its crazy how small peoples feet are. I didn’t realize how big my feet actually are

Question:
Could a pair Wolverine 1000 Mile boots be converted into a barefoot or minimalist style of footwear?
There is something strangely mesmerizing and calming watching your videos. I love the stitching machine.
I thought 1000 mile wolverines didn't have a shank? Were these restored before and shank added or do these seriously come stock with a mid foot shank?
That's what I thought too! I think in a later video they resole a 1000 mile that has a shank but it is not metal, but wood/composite or something like that.
Something is missing ,the price , for what price you repairing this shoes
In another video they said a basic resole is 80 bucks.
I really like your videos and the work you do. I think it would be great if the videos showed more of the actual work being done even if that would make the videos longer.
I still don’t understand why American shoemakers only stitch the front of the sole and nail the back instead of stitching all the way around.

I wish you guys...with your sense of quality, and style, would make an everyday, light use but long wearing lace up boot. Not too dressy, not to work inspired, but a boot you can wear everyday, like a sneaker. Cross between a 1000 Mile and a Thursday boot. Keep it a reasonable price like a Red Wing. Keep it generic design and colors. So it can be replicated easily. Think iPhone...where they tell the consumer what they like. An everyday is needed. Boot manufacturers worry too much about Sprint runs, one offs, etc. I just wish they would make a boot that is always a fallback, always a given.

What about grip? Don’t shoes like this need a bit more grip?
Once you start scuffing the bottom of the soles up it will start to get better grip and traction
Yeah you'd be surprised! Leather soles are pretty grippy. If it's a little damp out,and the sole picks up some moisture,they really got a good bit of traction. On icy sidewalks etc. just stop for a moment and let the ice wet the sole a little and you ain't gonna slip! I love leather soles.

My dad always wanted to learn this trade or rather this artistry but never did and now he gets to watch it at least through youtube.
He doesn’t understand a word but watches none the less.
#EndRant lol thank you guys.
Sui Caedere Haha...we really appreciate you watching...and for sharing our videos with others! 😉 Of course ladies are welcome as well. We weren’t sure, when we first got started, if women would enjoy these repair videos, but our female subscriber base has definitely been growing. 👍🏻 Hopefully these videos are helpful for everyone. Thanks again!
And what's the price of your resoling?
Hello! I’d love to know what kind of long lasting shoes/boots and work shoes/boots you recommend for women. It’s so easy to find these kinds of shoes for men but I’ve been having trouble finding some made for me
Love what you do, I’d appreciate the help, xx

The new soles you are resoling them with look like they are thicker than the originals.

Didn't think 1000 mile boots had shanks...
ah no they put the cork in and didn't give us that great cork iron footage oof
Good video but would have been better without that awful music.
Me gusta mucho como repara los zapatos 🇲🇽👍
Looks like the owner got the full 1,000 miles out of them.
Good to know. Next time I have to walk a thousand miles
Did not know that there could be so much details in the heels
I know this is way late but those are called ring shank nails.
background music us annoying but great job
How well made are Wolverine 1000 mile boots?
Y’all ever resole a pair of these 1000 miles with a wedge? I know they make a wedge version now but I’m curious how they’d look or compare if they were resoled with a wedge instead.
Yep, several times. They look good with a wedge.
What sort of boot doesn't have any tread on the sole? Doesn't make sense to me.
Makes me wonder how many miles I've put on my boots...had em for five years and all i ususally gotta do is replace the insoles and they're good for a good while. But I usually walk an average of like a couple of miles a day at work..sometimes up to 17 miles a day
I think thousand mile might be the name of the boot style? But yeah, it’s an interesting question for sure!
How much would it cost for these pair to be resoled?
So, did they go over a thousand miles?
