This pair of Thursday Boot Captains were mailed to our shop for a resole. After removing the old Thursday Boot rubber soles and heel pads, we changed them out with Dainite soles and top lifts. We also used some Saphir conditioner and cream to hydrate the leather and make them look new again. These boots look so much better, and they're now on their way back to the owner. Time for another restoration!

“Why were the insoles not replaced?”. We’ve received this question quite a number of times below, so I’ll save you the time and answer it. For one, this video is titled “...Resole”...meaning it’s exactly that. A resole. Also, these are $200 boots brand new. We’ve put out other videos showing us replacing insoles, and it’s a tedious and expensive job. The crack in the insole will not make a difference in the way this boot feels or functions. We replaced the liners, which we did not show, so the owner won’t feel anything going forward. Again, we do what the customers pay for. Sometimes we add a bit to shoes/boots in our videos for entertainment and to be generous. Replacing the insoles on this pair would not have been worth it financially. 👍
Love how you guys are straight forward and care about how to take care of the customer. Not trying to nickel and dime them. Just making sure what they need and what fits them for their shoes/boots. Keep the videos coming. Learning a lot from you guys!!
Good on you for telling it like it is. :)
What? No $500 repair of a $200 boot? My pair were seconds so they were less than $150 (bad speed hook, replaced with grommets)
When this type of thing is found, do you contact the customer to let them know and see if they want to replace the insole, or do you not worry about it since it's not worth it financially and it doesn't affect the function/feel of the boot?
I was just going to ask that very same question. This post helped me not doing that :)
Ahh. Coffee. Donuts. And a Trenton and Heath resole video. Great way to start a Saturday
Amen to that!
We really appreciate that! Thank you so much. 🍩 ☕️ 👞👍
Joseph Noa I saved the video for the evening. I instead went to a 9am meeting with some Friends of Bill W. It's a hour well spent. And now I'm enjoying the video.
I love donuts man. But I cut it out of my life. Replaced it with a good workout. That and my boots are making life awesome.
I usually wind my day down with them. So relaxing.
I started to pay more attention to my shoes because of this channel and the information you guys provide. This is very educational. Thank you for the videos, guys! Love from Brazil!
Thank you so much for watching!
There's something satisfying about watching life being put back into something that many individuals who didn't know better would discard rather than have repaired/restored. My great great great grandfather was a shoemaker in 1841 in Wales, UK so I find your work fascinating.
For $200, Thursday seem to provide a lot of value. Kudos to them.
Yeah, but if you have to pay 120 to resole them there are basically no point of doing that
@@kosta2177 but that's saving $80
@@bmo61950 no, you are not. Your boots will not be like new after the years of wearing out
@@kosta2177no but they will be broken in and good for the life of an entire new boot. Basically a better boot than new.
Exactly! Broken in boots that have been re-soled are better than new boots @@user-zt2zx1wp2d
New meme at 9:06: "Hydrate yer boots y'all." ;-)
Yeesssssirr.
"I'm Marreh Poppins y'all!"
Put that on a T-shirt!
Nothin like a good ole pair of Thursdays! Love your guy's stuff.
I was thinking: "YES!!" right up until the paper foot bed. Ugh. Amazing, what a little leather conditioner will do for a pair of hoof-covers. Nice repair.
Heath: "Let's keep going"
Bedo: "Yesss"
😁
"Let's continue"
Next up “ Hammer Time!”
hahaha Alright, lets continue * thumbs up *
There are not too many things that bring me small joys, but cleaning, brushing and polishing my boots is one of them. I love the "Polish" stage before T and H video's are done.
Well , just got mine and overall , they seem to be a good quality ( not amazing quality) boot.
I am happy with mine . I’m 70 years old and they’ll out last me probably. You are , by far , the best cobbler I have ever seen. This isn’t your first Rodeo, you are a hand . Cheers from your newest subscriber from California !
Woke up and the first thing that pops on youtube are my unconditioned (sorry) boots! Awesome! Thank you so much guys. Even my wife watched the whole video with me and son about to rewatch. Keep up the great work and will be sending some more!
Awesome! So happy you like them and for sharing our videos with family.
Hey! Was just curious, which color did you end up going with for these Thursday’s?? They’re gorgeous
This is Thursday's brown Captain. The leather has red and purple tones, so I'm not sure why they call it brown. But it's a really nice color, anyhow..
@@ergrainger9195 thank you!! Never made sense to why I see so much variation and none of the pictures of people having the boots look like the pictures on the Thursday site..
The last shoe shop for a hundred miles went out of business ten years ago.
My father was in the same outfit in WWII with the local shoe and bike shop owner in town.
Spent a lot of time in there as a kid.
I could almost smell it watching this great video !
Thanks for sharing.
I don't know why but watching that hot cork getting applied is like the most relaxing, soothing thing ever. :)
Those look great! Love watching the craftsmanship and the love for what y'all do.
Those Thursday's look outstanding. The red stitching on the outsole has real pop.
Very nice work on these Thursday boots. I really enjoyed watching this restoration & loved the turnout on these pair of boots. They look brand new. Cool! 💕
Every time I watch one of these my favorite part is the hot cork I swear I could watch that all day!
I’m amazed at the detail and craftsmanship you put into your work. Great videos.
There is such peaceful, zen like quality to these videos
A machine can never replace the true craftsmanship, time, patience and experience of a true craftsman like this. Outstanding Job!!!
Great video. I love seeing how shoes are put together and how you take them apart and rebuild them.
My man! You are a true master of your craft. Fantastic job!
I love these kind of videos! Explaining the shoe quality but seeing how equipment is prepared is 👍🤘
Been looking to get a first pair of boots and i might end up with some of those captains. I love how timeless leather boots are and the fact that you can resole and condition them to last years and years.
A true craftsman. No matter what it is you do when you do it at this level it's cool to watch.
Very informative. Great video.
Sipping coffee on a cool, mercifully drizzle-free Seattle Sunday morning, and watching a resole. This is shiny. Mahalos!
I really love the look of a well worn pair of Thursday boots
Love watching your work. That Southern accent is a plus
I know really nothing about how boots are made, but watching this was just so SATISFYING. Beautiful to watch.
Y'all should do a compilation of ironing the cork.
Hmmm
My friend you are a master in your trader.never realized the complexity of a boot making..great video
Not sure why this is satisfying to watch but I really enjoy the craftsmanship
I always love the vibrant colors of the thread/stitching, great video!
Thank you!
Man, applying the cork seems like it’s really satisfying!
Great work on these! Lovely finish and they look good as new!!!
That’s a very interesting. As someone who never does any manual labor myself I’m always fascinated to watch a master craftsman at work
Why do I find this so satisfying!?
after watching many of these videos, i purchased a pair of Thursday Boots Captains. out of the box comfort!
look amazing feel great and would not have heard of them if not for the videos.
Outstanding video and quality craftsmanship. Great stuff
I paid particular attention to this one as I have the very same pair of boots. I love them, I think they're a really good value.
My favorite new Saturday morning tradition. Awesome work gentlemen.
Thank you for watching, sir.
Excellent rework and finish
That red thread on the bottom looks so good!
I found your video while searching how to clean my son's Thursday boots. I had no idea that they needed to be hydrated!! Thank you for this helpful information. We just cleaned them up and they look amazing!!
Best line ever: "Hydrate your boots y'all!" Love the channel!
Beautiful work !!! ...I really like the Captain model in Thursday boots.
Awesome video guys! I think what sets your work apart from other channels is the way that you explain each aspect so comprehensively & patiently.
Continued success gentlemen, as you approach 200,000 subscribers!
Thank you so much for watching!
I have to say watching the hot cork process is so satisfying.
Outstanding, great work.
It always makes my morning better when I see the notification for your videos. I wish you would make them more often because you really inspire me to do more with caring for my shoes and boots. Iv'e really added to my collection since I started watching you guys.
That’s awesome and thanks for watching! We really try hard to produce one each week. Our business has exploded and we’re torn, at times, between the work and videos. Thank you for watching tho!
Magic, absolute wizardry!!!... you guys are good!!
Look at those old tools. That's pretty cool.
what an awesome job!!! they look so good
Excellent resole job! 👞
The video has a really chill vibe to it, I like it a lots
Thanks for letting me know about these boots, Ill be looking into them. Charles
That was really satisfying to watch.
Beautiful! Well done.
It’s oddly satisfying to watch these videos
Every time you break out the cork, I get a strange craving for a granola bar. It's a mystery.
😂
I love the hot iron thing...its like a roller smoothing over rough asphalt on the road. (plus the sound) all adds to the granola bar crazing.
LOL
I was gonna say the same thing, it looks delicious
WHAT IS THIS SORCERY
I don't know why but this was so satisfying to watch.
Amazing re-sole gents truly top notch!
Great work! For the price, the boot looks well built.
I love this, just got a pair of these and I love them, also you are my zen before morning...
I'm on vacation and while the wife is getting ready I saw you posted this video. I'm glad I didn't have to break my Sunday morning tradition 😊
Superb video chaps🇬🇧
I melt when he spreads the cork with his hot iron tool! I bet the fumes smell wonderful too!
Fantastic video for start to finish! And love hearing “y’all” in that typical Midwestern (or Southern) accent! Greetings from Germany!
Thank you very much for watching. We lived in Geilenkirchen, Germany for four years!
Love watching your channel Heath... Love your great American story too... Nice job on those boots... You and Bedo's my favorites... Happy New Year...! Greg
Missed seeing videos from you, great video for a cloudy day in Chicago. Thank you! I just had a conversation with my local cobbler - took your advice and got Vibram sole savers for my shoes - he said that when he started in our area 20+ years ago there were 6 cobblers, now...he is the only man standing! I asked if he was going to get an apprentice. I sure hope he does. Your channel has made me come to appreciate the craftsmanship that goes behind repairing a shoe, and I thank you and your brother, for the life lesson. Blessings, to you both, and I do hope to see another video soon. Be safe, stay healthy.
Thank you so much! Yeah, so many cobbler shops have closed up over the years, for quite a number of reasons, but the biggest being the mass market for cheaper made shoes. I actually think there is now a slow trend back toward nicer quality. We’ll see.
@@TrentonHeath I think you are right. That is what he said as well. More people are "getting" it!
Sir, it is now 2:38 am here in Reginal Victoria Australia couldn't sleep so I turned on RUclips and there you were! I was compelled to watch, such a simple restoration but my oh my they came up a treat. I love watching how you guys breathe new life back into an old friend. I just love that style of boot. Thank you.
Thank you so much and for watching us from Down Under!
great work man
Almost 200k! Let's do it. Great craftsmanship
I love your video, camera angles, and editing skills. I used to be a shoeshine boy in downtown San Jose, CA in the 70's I made a lot of money as a boy, back then there were more businessmen that wore leather shoes/Suits. I still do and I still use heel plates to save my heel/toe on my leather bottoms. (old school)
Thank you for sharing Angel from The Bay Area, CA
Good job.
Really great work. I love these videos.
Lovely job with those boots.....like new!
What great craftsmanship. If I lived in the U.S. instead of Denmark, I would definitely send my shoes in to you to have them resoled.
You should include a before photo in the end of the video when you're showing off the finished product!
Another excellent video! Your productions are getting better and better.
Thank you so much!
You guys are awesome!
Beautiful job!!!!
Nothing more satisfying than that cork.
Watching this resole has convinced me to try Thursday boots if and when I can afford quality boots. I’ve watched so very many of your videos and this one really impressed me the most with the quality of the boot from the manufacturer. The rest of your videos convince me of the quality job you two do for your customers. And it’s amazing to be able to watch quality work regardless of the trade. Thank you for all you do!
You’re very kind. Thank you so much for watching our videos.
Beautifully done!
Thank you very much!
Beautiful!
Great way to start a Sunday
Bloody awesome video, well done!
Love watching your videos
Your work is better then Thursday boots. I rather wear your work! Thank you for your video!
These videos make me want to go out and buy a couple of expensive, well-made shoes!
Wonderful work, wonderful video. As always! Thanks!
Thank you so much!
As a child in a one parent family I grew up in an apartment above a cobblers in the late 70's and early 80's, in England. The chap Tom Sparks, now passed on sadly, he used to let me pester him, on the school breaks and I asked him what's this and what's that, he always took the time to explain, it gave me a great appreciation for the trade and skill, and a great appreciation for quality footwear. I am a great lover of leather boots that are made properly, so a stitched sole is a must for me. I am most partial to military footwear, but now they are all the moulded glued soul, in my opinion a disposable boot, I waste of good upper leather. So in my search for replacement boots, I find myself buying Austrian military boots. They are a fabulous boot in my opinion, very comfortable, strong, durable and the best thing, they can be re soled. So they have the potential of lasting decades, I treat them well and look after the leather. Keep any crinkles from drying out with regular care. I have noticed that both English, US and many other countries military boots have the moulded sole with plastic stitch effect. This I find quite sad. I took a pair of my old work wear boots to a cobbler's (which is a dying trade in England it seems, mostly a side line to a key cutting shop), I asked if a welt could be added so a stitched sole could be added to make the boot last. He said impossible. I was gutted, the leather uppers were in excellent condition. The sadly ended up in the waste as the moulded sole had split and was coming away by the glue at the sides. You from the two videos I have watched having only discovered you today seem to be quite the expert at this trade, and it takes me back to watching Tom as a kid. I was fascinated, seeing all the equipment and remember many of the machines of the trade, the smell of the glue, the sewing machine for stitching leather, nostalgia trip. Makes me wish I had gone into the trade, but I doubt I'd find much work over here now. Anyway in your opinion could these moulded soles be replaced with a stitched sole or would there not be enough material to work with, would they be compromised? Why have they done this? My guess is for quickness and saving money in production. Love the channel by the way, and I will be watching with great interest. I would love to hear your opinion on this matter. I appreciate your busy though. Happy cobbling.
Love watching yall !! All the way from Houston tx
Wow these came out great
That was a very nice two colour stitch!
Terrific video 👍
WOW, that was awesome!
