What a rare pleasure (too rare, nowadays) to listen to a man who not only knows his product inside and out, but also has an enthusiasm for it because he knows what a top notch product he's selling.
Shame the camera guy has ADHD
SavedByTheBellend yes😂😂😂😂😂😂😂wobble wobble
Martin is more than just a salesman - he's Head of Retail for Cheaney Shoes. He's been with them since the 1970s. This gentleman knows his shoes.
Kevin Richards RPM Vocal Studio bit of a legend really
Too much of a bitch to off yourself
I ggh.

He seems like fine chap.
Comment garbage can...
If this ever disappears from the internet I'll cry. I could watch this over and over again.

Rachel Meyers download it
Rachel Meyers I hear you..I've seen this maybe 20 times...every once in a while I look it up, so calming.
I downloaded it just in case.
I hear you there, I've been listening to this once a week at least, for the last 3 years :)
What a gent, this is the pinnacle of what a retail experience should be. Knowledge, expertise and customer service. Class.
OliSR Something that barely exists anymore, anywhere...
@Kenny Perez See whilst I agree Retail employees are largely underpaid, I don’t agree that it means they can’t take pride in the service that they as individuals deliver. When I worked in retail I got paid a tiny wage but I always went out of my way to deliver great customer service to customers, because I wanted people to think I was great at my job and enjoy their interaction with me.
This is a trait that I have carried on throughout my career and has transferred time and time again :).
@@DwightLivesMatter it still exists. just need to be ready to pay the right amount for the quality
Had the privilege of being served by this gentleman. Not only does he know loads about shoes, I could tell he loves his job.
Get a life, you liar
I have been lucky enough to meet this gentleman, Martin Grey, on two occasions and I can confirm it was an absolute pleasure on each occasion.I walked away each time knowing I had just met a knowledgeable and charming ambassador for his chosen trade. It restores your faith to know care and service still exists in this world.
Yeah yeah
@@monkeytennis8861 Yes .. all true ... Actually seen him again since ... met him at the factory shop .
@@captnagrom8178 Martin is the epitome of an English cultured gentleman.. a dying breed.
@@petesmitt Could not agree with you more Pete.
This is a total accidental ASMR video. I love it. Just listening to this guy's soft voice and his knowledge. I've watched this video countless times.
Watching this video makes you forget there is any evil in the world.
I would buy anything from this gentleman
I
If only my weed guy was this nice and charming
Bought my first pair of Cheaney shoes based solely on viewing this video, Warwick Capped Oxfords (and I do mean first, wont be last). Cheers to whoever produced this clip. GREAT shoes, great work
How have they held up?
Did you establish the size before buying?
@@TheRickydamen bump
This should be a training video for proper sales etiquette and technique. Bravo.
Beautiful to see the old man's manner and professionalism
To call him an old man is rather rude.I would say that he is a mature gentleman with exquisite manners.
william woolhouse He is old.
@@Iberny3 But his defining characteristic is not he's old, no more than calling a fat person fat or a short person short is there's.
@@kirrithkovacs5097 Dito.
I literally couldn’t like this video any more. I’ve watched it so many times I lost count... makes me happy.
the way he talks and introduce the shoes, makes me wanna buy as fast as i could.
he looks like my grandpa as well, miss him.
This guy is all class, too bad we don't have very many places in the US to get this kind of shopping experience.
What a gentleman! He exudes style and charm
Sector Mentor hear hear, such a knowledgeable man. Very informative video.
thanks man!! ))
Yeah, got to agree with you. If I went to the UK for vacation, he would be on my goto list for a pair of shoes.
The English Empire conquered the world with style.
And sandwich breath!
When I was a kid in the 1970s and 80s, you usually went to a shoe store to buy shoes, i.e. Kinney's and Tom McCann. There were actual shoe salesman who would do what this gentlman does. I miss that. Professional, quality service has declined dramatically over the past 20 years in just about every sector of retail.
I just love watching this video. Very relaxing, and now I want my very own pair of Cheaney shoes! $$$.
WeAreThey or people aren’t as lazy and can try on their own shoes. Retail workers aren’t there to service you, they are there to do their job.
Shoes are a complex subject matter, a normal joe can not be expected to service themselves when buying a pair of shoes that will fit the way they are supposed to. This isn't like buying a loaf of bread! Retail has gone down in quality--and is now the domain of young women who don't know the products they are selling like this gentleman does. And I don't say that to offend because how can they be expected to know?
Kevin De Smet woah we got a r/niceguy in the comments. Watch out ladies, he’s a gentleman and he’s ready to accuse you of friendzoning him
Watch out fellow viewers of this video, we've got a butthurt Gucci boy infesting the comment section
Joseph Farrugia I’m the butthurt one because I’m able to do things for myself and don’t make retail workers put shoes on my feet for me as I’m a grown man? Makes sense guy lol. Good one
i want him to tell me stories about him growing up!!
The ultimate compliment to something that is of the highest quality is someone that can properly represent it.
i have to visit london this summer just to buy a pair of shoes from this man. wonderful english gentleman
Well you'd be disappointed because he works in Northampton
Go to the factory they have a shop onsite saves you about 1/3 of the London prices👍
I live nearby and have 3 prs of cheaney shoes.....lovely shoes
What a gentleman
true, he is quite a gent.
Now this is a Gentleman. A pleasure to see this video. His exquisite manners, , professionalism, courtesy and dedication to his craft is the definition of a true gentleman.
More videos about this gentleman please!
An absolute classic. Top drawer uninentional ASMR. Whenever I'm feeling anxious or stressed out, this video is one of my top go-to remedies.
If i had a lot of money i will buy from him every week,what a gentleman.
we now know what alfred does when batman is out hunting
This man seems like a really kind soul. 😊
This guy is an excellent salesman. Watching this video several times made a Cheaney customer out of me haha. They’re fantastic shoes, surprisingly heavy. The rubber sole on the chukka boot is like a fortress for your feet. No snow, ice, or rain (we have all three in abundance where I live) can get through these.
Gentleman, English, Classic,
Forever.
Now that's a good honest English gentleman!
There's no such thing.
David Russell That’s the French.
Im looking for a navy suite for work
sorry about my sandwich breath
Might I suggest the establishment just up the road where you can establish what type of suit would best suit you.
Sorry but the suit looks square and unstructured on you.
Same
This thread did not disappoint. 😂😂😂
absolutely love how much pride he has in his work.
This man is exceptional. Grand video, and those chukkas! Wow!
This guy could probably sell ice to an Eskimo
Or, sell sand to an Arab.
Pointers for all sales people out there
Australia sells sand and camels to Saudi Arabia.
Oxford lace to a person from Derby and vice versa.
He could sell water to a drowning man...
Seems crazy, but I know for fact that I've watched this video hundreds of times. The ASMR is good, but I really love his demeanor and knowledge.

What is ASMR?
@@MeToo-py1tq ASMR is a feeling created by a video, sounds, etc. where the listener feels "tingles", relaxation or a calmness. I don't get tingles, but I definitely get extreme relaxation from ASMR videos. Just search ASMR on RUclips...
Jacob K.
Ok never knew this will investigate. Thanks
I’ve earned a PHD in shoes just watching this over several times. I now consider myself an expert on leather business shoes. I’ll be sending my business cards out soon so, be looking for them.
And if they’re not fitting well at first, don’t worry, “they’ll ride up with wear.”
best sitcom ever sadly they have all passed on.
@@Seonal I'm free..
I'm looking for a Navy shoe for war...
Me too..I've got the suit already!
Oh I see you came from 'That' video too...XD
Sorry about my... Shoe breath.
@@Squishito oh...I see where you have been...have you stablished the stablishment that nobody was stablishing...?
Kirby, is that you?
Lovely shoes and a masterful salesman.
Immediately one is thinking-- I like and trust this guy?
Stan Murray I don't know do you? That was most likely meant to be a statement, I assumed
Stan Murray i agree?
I'm confused?
I think you're right?
very good salesman excellent work
I love it when people take such pride and joy in their work. Well done to Cheaney shoes and Co. When I go to London, I will definitely stop by and get some shoes.
This man is an absolute delight. I just love everything about this video.
I love how this guy talks, I would like for him to read me a story every night before I go to sleep
vosedon
This gentleman is not a guy, sorry.
Quick piece of advice to the guys at Cheaney. If you start posting regular videos on this RUclips channel, you could build a very large audience, entertain people and sell a heck of a lot more products - just a thought 👍
I am a ASMR fan and this man could definitely join the ASMR community his voice is very relaxing
That guy probably went in there just to use the bathroom.
Ended up spending 900$ on shoes.
😂😂😂
@MADARA UCHIHA THE TRUE SAVIOR cool story
LOL, I will never spend big money on clothes or shoes, I spend as little as possible but I do love the knowledge and professionalism of these bespoke old school craftsmen and services
You mean £
@Hitado Dota Well pride or not, being cheap saves money that can be directed to more important things or be employed to obtain greater quantity and variety. Often many cheap things are better than one expensive thing.
I wish I loved anything as much as this gentleman loves what he does.
I purchased 4 pairs of shoes here 20 years ago and they are still going strong
I could listen to him say "Chukka Boot" over and over.
this man is very british and makes the fine art of shoe selling something I like listening to.he knows his craft and you can feel his excitement in the way he talks,he knows a good product when he has one.he eludes style,class and confidence.
ASMR flood coming... #established
Can’t tell you how much I respect this guy. Has a genuine love for his product and a manner you can’t buy or train.
What a marvellous gentleman. I would buy all three pairs from him instantly.
George Banks Only 3 pairs?
I like the salesman accent. Calm and relaxing. Seems pretty knowledgeable
This video is the reason I now own 3 pairs of Cheannys. They look special, they feel special and I'd like to think that il always be a customer .
What a great guy! His passion is incredible, beautiful to see
The craftsmanship of the shoes looks excellent! They may be expensive at first but, with regular maintenance & care, they should last a very long time.
What a wonderful gentleman! Loved your video.
What a wonderful, articulate and genuine gentleman! I'd buy anything from this man.
Smashing! So wonderful to see a man who is truly a master of his craft!
I love how passionate he is. Great customer care
i could listen & watch this for days non stop, great work
I don’t even know how many times I’ve seen this video. It shows up in my recommendations all the time and I can’t seem to just go past it
this guy could sell shoes to someone without feet
"It would enhance your interior design, and even though unusable for yourself they would make a splendid gift, or at least remind everyone of your class had you posessed feet"
not difficult though if they're buying them as a gift.
People who walk into these kind of shops are intending to buy something.
The old saying is of course he could sell Ice to eskimos I've always believed that if that's true your a fraud or liar
"Your toes looked after themselves."
It's a joy to represent a quality product and this man exhibits that.
Just bought a pair in Hong Kong. Because of this gentleman.
I would fly to England to buy shoes from this man.
Thats the store I buy my shoes from. Two black brogues for work, as one wears out you can send it back to the shop and a new pair ready to wear and two brown for the weekends! Quality. Always invest in good quality shoes. I've had mine for 15 years
You can hear the passion on his voice. This is something you rarely find these days.
The man knows how to talk about shoes. Very good advices. The shoes are really perfect. So nice and comfortable.
superb presentation , an excellent promotion for Cheaney shoes . I have a wonderful pair with the Goodyear soles , everything that was said about them is totally right , great product.
The David attenborough of shoes
I bought a pair of those Jackie III chukka boots after watching this video. They are absolutely fantastic, they look good, feel great, and even smell nice. Worth every penny. Thank you, Cheaney!
Charisma, charm, knowledge, class, calmness, eloquence. Just brilliant.
Great storyteller! Wish to find more vids with him.
Very well explained. A joy to listen to.
The man is a perfect for the business..... and sounds great... respects paid to him.
He reminds me of Q. I keep expecting him to show how they fire poisoned darts.
Well not so much as his predecessor, Norman Copperweight, should remind you of Alfred Pennyworth, Bruce Wayne's butler. XD
Oh do be serious double-oh-seven!
This man is so knowledgable and professional
Best unintentional ASMR. Lot of passion about the craft.
What a superb explanation. The next generation has a lot to learn from the presenter Absolutely Fantastic. Thanks
Excellent tutorial on shoes and fit...! A perfect Gentleman too!
Just came from Unintentional ASMR to like this original video. I love buying well made shoes like this, so appreciate it very much on that level as well ❤️
I wonder if the key to asmr is the feeling one gets by experiencing real sincerity in another. This gentleman is truly passionate about his shoes.
get such pleasant brain tingling watching this video. Great bloke.
I like that he actually takes the time to lace the shoes they're trying
Very informative and well presented film ... I can thoroughly recommend the reconditioning service . Shoes are returned as new but no
Breaking in to do 🙂
Truly amazing, I'd be a very happy man if ever had a pair of shoes from any of those collections.
More Respect to that passionate gentleman....salute Sir
Lovely video and a great salesman. I hope this fellow has a raise. Very very good job wish I could shop in person I'd buy a pair for sure
Pure joy listening to his introduction.
What a lovely man. Knowledge and fuss free good service.
I can't find anything about this guy past 4 years ago. I hope he's still with us
Brilliant, I love a quality shoe and wish I could one day afford a pair of these.Also a true salesman who doesn't grunt like a lot of unknowledable sales folk today
Nice to listen to a man how loves his job has pride in his trade and knows what he’s talking about......well done sir! (Old school) is the best
True professional, old school salesman, knows he's trade. Unfortunately a dying breed. Thank you
Just ordered my Hurricane R boots today! Can't wait
Totally mesmerizing presentation…. for shoes.
Awesome-looking shoes! Would love to own a pair of those high quality ankleboots. I have a pair of great Red Wings - and I am sure these presented on the video are as good!
nice shoes! and he is adorableee!
I feel the same. I would love to buy a pair of shoes from this man.
