Finally a channel where he's not shouting at you with crazy loud music in the background with stupid effects, but instead he talks to you and shares his experience. Just a man, doing his work. Not more, not less. Great!
Yeah reminds me of old RUclips. Before google took over and sponsorships were even a thing.
But Steve really ROCKS the Hammer Time and 👍s. Love this channel!
Wife: what are you watching?
Me: some guy making shoes
Wife: why
Me: I don’t know but I can’t stop
Literally same thing happened to me yesterday. I said "I learned more in 5 minutes of watching this guy, than you will from 5000 vapid self congratulating oscar speeches". Now we're not talking and I'm watching more awesome shoe work.
Same conversation! He's addictive!
😆
Serioulsy it’s addicting
Ditto!!!
You have three characteristics that usually never go hand in hand: extreme competence in what you do, modesty far above the average for talented men and an engaging sympathy. God bless you forever! I`m Guilherme, from Brazil.
I really love how you put the original branding on the sole. For me, that level of attention to detail really seals the deal for me. Great job with the repair! 👍
For people who say "Why do the Bottom." What this man does is an art form and just like in other art form you present your best; all the hard work and time you spent is reflected on that piece.
As I told that broad one time, do whatever, just don't charge me extra....
I like the way the bottom looked, I feel it added more to it. Yeah it’s gonna get worn down but it still looked amazing!
Nice work.
Please God, let this man live another 100 years. There are a lot of shoes that need his attention.
But do people want to for it?
Most people don't!
So many wearing shoes and throw them away, before they are broken or defect...
This modern time!
But some shoes are loved and a few people are searching for such shoemakers and the money!
I hope the craft of this shoemakers will survive!
😂😂😂Yes, a lot of shoes need his attention.
Exactly This!
Well, if we go by that, god doesn't exist because we know that won't happen.
Some shoes are made in a way that makes them impossible to repair ..
That blind stitch was the coolest thing I've seen all week, and it's Friday.
It doesn’t matter what it is........I love watching a master craftsman at work.
Me: minding my business
RUclips: hey you wanna see someone fix a shoe?
Me: god dammit I’m in
Watching those shoes 'rip' apart is so satisfying.
damn i didn't know i commented already
Yes please.
I have bought a lot of expensive shoes and worn them until they fell off my feet. I've had some bad experiences with poor repairs but the work you do is truly inspirational. I lived for years in the Middle East and you remind of the artisans there who could bring cherished items back from the dead. Greetings from Scotland.
When you said "oh it's not that difficult... it's pretty easy to do" I even laughed. You are too humble, I'm pretty sure I won't be able to remove the sole of it. You did tremendous amount of work there with astonishing results. The cobbler might be one of the most underappreciated jobs out there.
I don't know what i am more impressed by. How good the shoes turned out or the fact that my man just shaky hand single shot thread a needle without being 3 inches from the hole like it was nothing.
John Wayne 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I feel like a little kid that watches the same magic trick a million times and is still amazed after the millionth time. Great work and those shoes are definitely better than when they were new.
Am I the only one who binges on these videos? My husband walks by, and says..."Are you STILL watching shoe repair videos?" Yep!
As another lady, I got so inspired that now I’m an apprenticing cobbler! You’re not crazy at all.
This is ART!! Not the crap this new generation wants to sell us!! Man, magnificent transformation!!
Didnt realise the amount of work. They came up brilliant what an art.
I seems to me that your work makes the original manufacturer's construction look silly. I suppose mass production has something to do with it. As always, thank you Steve. This was fun to watch. I learned about a reverse pliers today.
I don't understand how people can continue to wear a shoe with a hole in it until it gets to the size of that hole...
CopperBeard I have the same shoes
He definitely didnt wear them on rainy days 😂😂 I hope
Poverty
CopperBeard Cardboard and duck tape overlay😂 and oh yeah.... avoid ALL water puddles.... this person didn’t cross his legs over his knees.... I’m certain of it😆
Yanno Love with or without THE HOLES?😂
I love the look you have on a finished job. I can see the pride you have in your work. I so enjoy watching your videos and learning every time. I especially like learning new tools. Great Job !!!
I've watched most of your videos, but I think this is my favourite. The amount of work is amazing and the finished shoes are fantastic. Real craftsmanship!
Have you ever thought about going to the thrift store, finding the most beat up pair of shoes and fixing them up on camera? 😂
@@amydouglas537 And?
@@amydouglas537 And?
he's got paying customers, why would he do something for free.
These shoes are destroyed hahaha, I think this is good enough
twmusicoustic he makes money from viewers and ads bud.
Your channel receives an automatic thumbs-up - everytime - before I view - 'cause I know what's coming:
* quality
* attention to detail
* good explanations of what we're viewing & let us not forget,
* HAMMER TIME!
Shoe cobbler/repairer here in the uk and I can sit here and watch videos like this for ages! Helps me with my customers at work! Always looking at ways to improve my skills and my services to customers 💪🏻
An absolute amazing and valuable channel in my opinion! Thanks for all that you do and for taking the time to do these videos 👊🏻💪🏻
I found you recently and watch you pretty regularly now Steve. You're my "favorite cobbler." You're a true artisan, an aesthetic expert, and it's a joy learning from you and seeing you perform your craft with such skill and affection. Thanks for the integrity of your work, which always shines forth with clarity.
Man, I gotta say Steve, your uploads are just little gems in my week. They really brighten up my mood, even when I'm happy. I look forward to them *every time* . Always love to see a passionate master at work. I can't wait to send you my loafers - this year! ~Don from Korea
It is refreshing to see an artist at work. It isn't just a job.
When I stationed in West Germany in 1979, I bought a pair of used West German army "knobelbecher" boots. When I came back I had the soles restored by a cobbler near my hometown. He did a fantastic job in restoring them. Yes those knobelbecher boots were of sentimental value to me. 46:01
Wow. Damn fine work. I haven’t had any shoes reconditioned in years and this has inspired me to do so. It’s great to see old world artisans getting their due in the digital age.
Besides the sentimental value to keep the same pair of shoes, some designs even get expired and no longer available. Awesome job you did there
My wife hates you!!! I watch your videos in bed , and when she's ready to fall asleep ....guess what? HAMMER TIME !!!!
xD
Watching this in bed on my own but your comment made me laugh 😂
You are definitely someone that takes pride in the work they do! Wish, there were more of you around! You don't cut corners, and the finished product looks absolutely phenomenal :) I will def recommend you to anyone who is looking at restoring shoes or leather products!
This has been a very hard and draining week. Watching your incredible artistry is so calming and just what I needed. Thank you
I just love the way you blind stitched these, the rounded edge was fascinating and I believe the price was more than fair, the dieing of the bottom soul was the perfect thing and really the crown of the restore. If I could have just one pair of my Dads shoes but they were donated with out me knowing, I broke my back and am recovering slowly and watching you is a real relaxing experience for me and as always the product is beyond perfect. HAMMER TIME!🙂
Beautiful job!!!! Love the explanation regarding the sentimental value of an object to have it repaired or reconstructed versus buying something brand new. You’re so on point. Much respect to you!!!!
Your restoration videos are better than meditation for calming my mind. I love watching your excellent work! ❤️❤️
I cannot believe that I have binged watched shoe repairs for two days instead keeping up with the …… pick the celebrity. This for me has proven to be very, very satisfying and educational with the repairs when completed, a work of art to behold. Thank you for that in these trying times. Loved your very sweet, four legged pal, the German Shepherd, shown in one of your videos.
His catch phrase: "Alright, let's continue."
😂😂😂😂
🤣😂🤣🤣 u forgot the thumbs up
@@Bulmer. ๙ช
Amazes me how anyone could wear a shoe that has actually gone right through the sole and this fellow has to patience of Job to do stuff like this great to see a real craftsman doing his job.
Maestro! Your comments, attention to detail and pride in your work apply to many trades and professions. From an accountant that spends free time fixing stuff, thank you for your videos.
"Some ppl say why do it, they'll only walk on it once and it's ruined... WHO CARES, I DONT CARE"... spoken like a true craftsman and a dying breed, I appreciate this.
This is BS. These shoes look better now than they did new. . .
How'd they look new? I never saw a pic.
@@TheyForcedMyHandLE they used to have cemented on soles. With these new fancy ones stitched on, they're better than they ever were.
I totally agree with you! And made better than before! Now the sole is stitched!
🤭🤣😂
Heard about you from MsDreamcakes and I can't stop watching! These shoes look amazing‼️ If I hadn't seen you restoring them I would never think they were the same shoes!
That's freaking art
yes, the most amazing part is how he knows where and how much to spray the leather to get it looking just right.
@@filmjolk4410 yep that is what happens when one is experience it their work/art, after doing it thousands of times this is a very easy thing for him but for newbies its an impossible thing.
Steve your attention to detail and dedication to quality never fails to impress me.
Not to mention your supreme skill and knowledge.
I have never seen such an expert shoemaker in my whole life.
Gucci should be proud of what you did to these shoes! You breathed new life into them
I can’t even imagine how long it would take to get this good at it. He makes it look so easy and that’s when you know it’s very difficult
I’m glad people give you so much support on these videos. Great job!
I love your videos. They're relaxing, quiet, and highly informative. I love watching you revive old shoes. Great work and videos!!!
Your work is unbelievable and your attention to detail is unheard of these days of disposable items. You are a master of a lost art. Amazing!
MR BEDO YOU SHOULD BE MAKING SHOES FOR GUCCI, THIS IS HOWS IT DONE.... 10 PLUS
You always do quality work. Yes the sentimental value for a favorite pair of shoes is priceless. Your client is going to be so grateful :-)
I love watching you bring bags and shoes back to life. Amazing!!! Ive been in manufacturing for 30 years (whole garment) , anything to do with machines and creating has my full attention.
😔As someone who has bought Gucci and other luxury brands for many years, after comparing the old with the new....it’s my observation and belief that ALL of them are cutting costs using lesser quality to make the items / styles they continue to sell at higher prices to keep / improve their profits!! I’m getting to the point where I’d rather buy a vintage item than a new item because of quality. 😔
Sad but true. They're having to please shareholders now and demand is high. Plus most customers aren't aware of what true quality and craftsmanship looks like. Price and brand name have become proxies for genuine quality.
Gardenia in bloom - 👍Exactly. It’s a shame. 😔
Ginger Ginger - 👍Thanks. 😔 It’s sad. I’ve been doing some research....🤔I don’t like what I’m finding. I’m not acquiring any more Gucci products for a whole host of reasons. 🤨
@grafvonstauffenburg Not really. Dr Martens were bought out by a multinational conglomerate a few years ago, and redesigned the boots and opened up a factory in the Far East. Some of the originals mage in the Nottingham Factory are still traded between collectors because they are far superior in materials, construction, and comfort than the redesigned ones. You have to know quality to judge it. A lot of people today don't know quality because cheap, throw away fashion is so prevalent. A question: have you ever though why these cobbler channels don't feature women's shoes? It's because most on the market aren't worth repairing because women consumers have been trained to buy fashion over quality, and that makes the shareholders happy. We, the consumers need to change and be more savvy consumers and learn about how clothing and shoes are made and buy quality. We will have to soon anyway because the days of cheap and cheerful are on their way out, as those poor workers earning under $5 a day in the Far East ain't going to be happy forever settling for less, and the percentage of GDP paid to workers in the developed countries continue to fall over time, we won't be able to be so penny smart and pound foolish. There's no a channel where a female historical costumier taught herself to make shoes, and that hobby isn't cheap, but shoe goes through the steps of how say, a early 20th century female boot was constructed, and you would be hard pushed to find that quality today. We're the fools.
Your honesty is refreshing. Thank you. 👍🏼🇨🇦
It's great seeing someone do their job, do it so brilliantly and enjoy doing it too! You always see to go that extra mile out for your customers, and that reminds me of my dad, he used to be like that too. Stay blessed.
I never in my life thought I would be so hooked on watching shoe repairs. I started watching your videos 4 days ago and I can’t stop. You do some amazing work brother 💪🏼
You find someone who does great work, you stick with them.
Steve, the audio Rocks in this episode! It has a healthy lower-midrange presence, and the upper mids are very clear and present. Congratulations! And on another superb job. (Neither, nor is correct).
I kinda miss the radio in the background and the unexpected interruptions that happened on his earlier videos. I will never forget the first one I watched that was unedited and fabulous.
I did leatherwork for many years, but it was more hand tooling accessories. I am stunned at how good these shoes look! I figured there was no way to make them look better than new. You are definitely a master of your trade!
I love that you don't do anything half-heartedly. Even stitching that sole that you didn't need to and dying it . You take pride in your work and it's great
Artistic masterpiece! Love that you care enough to put that detail on the bottom of the shoes.
bruh i opened the video expecting that the guy would just clean the shoe and replace the sole; then when he started to tear it all up i got really scared but he killed it! good job!
You know it’s bad when your quizzing your 18 year old studying for a college exam to define a “blind Blake stitch”😂🤣 As always beautiful craftsmanship 👍🏼
Lol
Thanks for sharing--video and commentary--the entire process of completely rebuilding and restoring a quality shoe. It was very educational and entertaining. Love your positivity and sense of humor. Thanks again.
I'm the same, my folks are from Leb.,moved to Australia in early 80s for the same reason, thank you again, amazing skills, I started to look for more videos like crazy 🤪👍
Take a drink every time he says "alright let's continue" and gives the thumbs up you'll be sloshed halfway through the video
That's as dangerous as the Kirby Allison drinking game.
Sir James W. V. Savile, OBE, I haven’t watched enough Kirby vids yet... what does he do/say a lot?
@@f308gtb1977 I haven't heard someone refer to themselves by name so much since Bob Dole.
Sir James W. V. Savile, OBE 🤣🤣
Was looking for this comment 😅😆
Those had a great transformation! Never justify your prices. If people love their shoes, or are lucky, etc., who are we to judge whether or not to spend the $$ on it. I noticed the volume levels being adjusted for the machinery, but it was excellent for hearing you while using it. Fabulous! 💖
Omg. I have watched almost all of your work, but this impresses me the most for some reason… and it was like business as usual for you… 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
This was another amazing job Steveroo...! WOW... Those Gucci's looked to be toast and you brought them back, as usual...! Fantastic.. Greg
Mate this geezers the Business,, those Gucci we ready for the DUMP YARD .. they now look SUPERB.. this guy IS A MASTERS AT WORK... BIG UP ... QUALITY ...your the maaaaan ...
Bedos Leather Works RUclips notification. We know it’s “HAMMMMMMMEEEEERRRRR TIIIIIIMMMMMEEEEE!!! Awesome job, look better and built better than new. Thank you for posting
i find your voice really calming and i wait to end to see the finished product you got me hooked... thank you
WHAT A AWSOME CRAFTMAN SO SO PROUD IN YOUR WORK MY LATE HUSBAND GERARD WAS A BEAUTIFUL CRADTED CABINETMAKER.I HAVE
REALLY BEAUTIFUL FURNITURE THAT HE MADE FOR OUR HOUSE
WATCHING FROM SOUTHERN IRELAND
best tumbnail of all time
Just made my first custom wooden lasts today to start making shoes. I think I've pieced together just enough info from your channel to throw it all together!
Sunday morning, coffee, paper, favorite leather recliner, .... and I'm watching a pair of shoes come to life !! I am a designer and contractor; been makin, designing and having stuff made all my life, mostly structured symmetrical and planned stuff; but shoes? wow! to work these free form curved worn items back to life !! its fascinating! Great work, Bedo.
George F , Miami FL
Somethin I love to see is old things being made new again. What an amazing job!
I hope one day to have shoes worthy of sending to you , Great work Steve.
I was going to invent some snarky remark about the airbrush, but we don't want to start another 'Hammer time" controversy. Lol Keep up the goof work Brother!
47:13 😂😂 you sir had me cracking up with your side comments 💀 great job on the shoes too btw!
What a transformation, I found it absolutely fascinating and so informative, I love leather work and fixing and restoration. Thanks so much for sharing. I was so glad you said how much the restoration was as that was my burning question just to know. Cobblers are a dieing trade in such a disposable society today. I look forward to seeing more videos
Simply just wow Steve you surely brought them shoes back from the dead.
My great-grandfather was a clog maker, he lost an eye when removing nails= attention. I ❤️ your vids!
Wow! I'm so impressed by the great work you've done on this pair of shoes. I really enjoyd the calm way you explained the single steps of the restauration process and I learned a lot about the construction of shoes and a shoe makers work. Thanks a lot! Happy New Year to you and kind regards from Germany!
A true master of trade, an amazing transformation. I have a similar Gucci pair needing new soles and repairing worn, cracked leather but having trouble finding a repair shop in Toronto.
I'm always looking forward to watching your videos. Awesome job.
I just bought a Rita Hayworth autographed photo, when I told my friends what I paid .. they thought I was nuts .. I told them that this signature represents a minute of her life.
What I'm getting at, as a collector, it was worth the price .. to me. What I'm also saying is that I understand "sentimental value" .. it is worth the price. Great video. Cheers ....
And it’s more environmentally friendly too! Win-win
10 minutes in: i'm hooked, continuing, and am whistling "heard it through the grapevine" along with you.
Bedo, I lived in F.C. near your business before they built up your street and but those buildings around you, you did a pair of shoes for me back in the day, I still have the boots over 25 years. I love to see your channel. Great work!!
What I dont get: People are buying expensive shoes to be fancy and then wear them in a state of total decay!?
@@ResistImpulse of course you can see the bottom of a shoe in many situations. Whoever wore this pair until the state they're currently in is nuts. Goes well with a filthy sweater and dirty jeans, something I wear during yard work.
I used to pound the pavement of NYC for years and the state of shoes always interested me. I can relate ... LOL! They feel great, become your go to and the last thing you want to do is give them up for any period of time. For me, it was always the leaning heal or the flapping sole ... Haha!
Finding someone to do professional refinish work could of been a deciding factor as well. I wouldn't want to send shoes off to someone and get back a horrible rework but maybe the person stumbled upon bedos videos and seen the quality and care that goes in to his work and that was enough to part with the shoes to get what looks like a brand new product and you see the pride that comes with what he put in to it.
@@aeroAdvocate many situations? I think your fascination with the bottoms of other peoples shoes makes you nuts
We wouldn’t cobblers if people didn’t do so, plus some people buy things for what they are the price is a minor factor
Another excellent job. Keep em coming as always.
Love those personal touches like adding colors and polishing to the soles - stunning !!!
Great stuff. I love it so much because In today's world we are losing valuable crafts men. Keep it up you might inspire a young man to pick up the craft as you did. God bless.
If I didn't see it with my own two eyes, I would think that was a brand new pair of shoes, GREAT job..
Absolutely, artwork. Artist in his glory. Thank you.
There is so much knowledge to absorb just from this video. Thank you for all that you share!
You are a doctor in your craft,honesty always pays.Stay blessed.
These other cobblers don’t have shit on Steve. He is super talented.
I laughed when you started whistling Marvin Gaye. I whistle at the same pitch and volume as you. My go to songs are The Final Countdown and Jingle Bells (even when it’s no where near Christmas).
🤣🤣👍👍
Absolutely amazing just like a new pair of shoes , I couldn’t stop watching I had to see how they turned out .
You my friend are an artist! I love to learn new things and you are a good teacher. Thank you so much.
