Great work. These Chippewa Engineer Boots were temporarily available in Germany as a residual item for about 100 dollars with and without a steel toe cap. The suede was of good quality and was really thick. The rest, especially the sole construction, was the usual well-known scheme, no leather midsole, instead cardboard leather parts that the customer would like to mistake for real leather. Now after your service, the shoe is at the level of a shoe in the 1000 dollar class. you have corrected all the shortcomings of the manufacturer. Just perfect thank you and keep it up. Greetings Robby
Hello, they used leather instead of cork, you can see that at 7:30 minutes. Leather at this point is better but more expensive than cork. Cork wears out while leather adapts better and better to the foot. Greetings Robby
We put the shoe on a metal last and we use special clinch nails. So when we nail into the boot the nail will hit the metal last the shoe is on and the tip nail will bend over flat so it won't poke you.

Nice!! Way more comfortable after your alterations.
When you hammer a nail into the heel or other part of the sole, how does it not poke through into the shoe?
We put the shoe on a metal last and we use special clinch nails. So when we nail into the boot the nail will hit the metal last the shoe is on and the tip nail will bend over flat so it won't poke you.
Did these already have a leather vamp liner or did you put that one in?
The leather vamp lining was there already. We only replaced the footbed to leather and took out the steel toe.
@@UnsungHouse alright thank you for the response
