Wow this is beautiful work! This is quite literally how Blunstones should be made! They'll last much longer with a goodyear welt, instead of the glue down construction. I have a pair I use for horse back riding. Keep up the good work! It gives me hope for Blundstone boots!
Incredible craftsmanship! Restoration work like this is a lost art. It's amazing how much work went into resolving those Blundts. If you look at the price schedule, it's almost half the cost of a new pair, and they look much better. The video was actually quite a pleasure to watch at each stage.
I’ve three pairs of Blundstones to sort. Two being the old laces classics in an ochre colour. I’m just trying to figure out which sole will be most comfortable! Tremendous work going on here.

When did you take the last out? was it before you put the corking in? There were nails sticking into the last through the inner sole and shank. Were these removed then put corking in?
Outstanding work !! The uppers looked pretty good considering how bad the condition of the soles were. Seeing that Bluntstones are slip on shoes, do you think the stiffness of a goodyear welt will affect general comfort until broken in ? some heel slip ? thoughts ?
Was interested to see the rationale behind covering the texon in leather and labor behind that vs just using a leather insole? I'm guessing it's to save weight but how much would you save there?

Thank you very much!
Mine looked like that and Blundstone gave me a replacement pair for free.
Beautiful work.
Thank you! Cheers!
If only I could have gotten you to fix my Blundstones. Great job 👏.

What a beautiful job…
Classic work!
They look fantastic.
Doesn't get better than that. I still cannot get my head around how the sewing machine works.
Better than new!!

Very superb skills
Thank you! Cheers!

Fabulous work! Why did you use a Texon footbed instead of leather? Cheers
We do have options, lether as well, $$
What would be the rough cost to have this work done?

they have options on the website, the leather insole is more expensive.
Why?
Only for RUclips :-) It does not make any other sense.
What doesn't make sense?
It makes sense to me.
