30 YEAR OLD TIMBERLAND BOOTS RESTORED! // Nubuck boots upcycled
Фильм және анимация
Today we had a crazy job with these 30 year old timberland boots in for a full re-build and restoration. We restored the lot from new vibram soles to reconditioning the nubuck, and for being so old they came out great!

I need a cobbler of this man's incredible skill to repair my comfy worn in nubuck timbs. I've got three pairs that the outsole has detached at the toe. My timbs cost me 120 US twenty years ago, I'd pay that amount again to get them restored because as anybody familiar with work boots knows, once they're broken in you've got some happy feet.
This guy is younger than those boots. But still he is the one who makes this profession as art, and make it sure to survive for decades. (I don't know how the hell I got to this channel, but I sacrificed 4 hours to this artist.) Keep on, man!
I’m on my third pair. I honestly didn’t know you could restore things like this. Great to watch as always.

Thing is you don't know what you will get back at some random cobbler, you might regret it and should have just bought a new pair. This guy does his advertising on youtube, shows his quality of work and knowledge.

Also it would cost as much as a new pair almost. So that the reason why people mostly do full repairs on quality boots and not cheap ones

Any good cobbler will be able to upgrade your shoe better than factory, so it's a no-brainer. And you can customize sole colors, types, etc.

@@And-zo8jn I would get quality boots repaired every single time over new replacements. Boots that are worn in fit you like a glove, and have a beautiful patina. New boots/shoes take years to properly break in and become "yours". Plus, why replace them anyway when they can be serviced and last many more years!

Cobblering is becoming a lost art and I love watching you bring UGLY shoes back to life. Those super detailed soles you put on are amazing. 👍🏼

Wow, well done! Hard to believe they are 30 years old. My work boots look like that after 3 days lol.

Always nice to watch a craftsman restoring what once was. Good lessons for all to learn from. Thnx Dan!

Another perfect re-sole, with a nice leather midsole and no stitching through the outsole. Great job!
Dan...you are good...! Really good at what you do! That 30yrs old Timberland shoes looks great and the owner should be delighted about it! Job well done!
Great job Dan!
Awesome job Dan. That leather midsole is going to make an incredible difference in the fit and feel of the boots. Well done mate.
Dude I just found this channel and subscribed like 2 days ago.... your videos are really realy ace man. I've been trying to be more like my grandfather where when I buy something I take care of it so it lasts forever and your work is just unbelievable and reminds me of him and his generation so much.

The environment thanks you. There really is a lot that can be done if we just live more conscious. Repair, maintain and think about what we really need and what just takes space and gets thrown away later.
Great job Dan.
Love this channel, these old timberlands came out lovely! I live in Ireland now, but originally from 10 miles away from you 👍
It seem that Ron have a little familie now! 👨👩👧🐥🐥🐣
Unbelievable.. great work
I absolutely love the stitching machine! So cool!
Excellent,another 30yrs of boot life !!
Dan, brilliant job as always. Cheers.
"30 years old, REALLY ANCIENT"!! That felt personal and my feelings are hurt, lol... cause I'm 1.5x their age. Great job!
Ron’s been getting busy, whole duck family now!! 🦆
These videos are some of my favorite. Not high end boots are the most satisfying to restore.
I fear the worst for this lovely pair of timberlands - you forgot to say "let's get sticky" when you glued up and put on the vibrams!! 😆 Great job yet again!
Wow that was an amazing transformation! Awesome job!
Absolutely fantastic dan!!
Great work, Dan. Tops to see what you do, and the excellent results you produce.
Great to see a craftsmen in action👍🏻

Excellent show Sir,thank you ! 👍👍!
Masterful! And appreciated the POV views as well!
For some old boots you did a great job Dan!!!
Thanks for including the price of £160 for a full restoration. Cobbler concierge glued a thin elvis sole on my worn out timberlands for US$120. It fell off within an hour and cobbler concierge blocked my calls, I was out $120 plus possible shipping from Hawaii back to New York City. Their long turnaround timeframe prevented me from getting a credit card charge back. Swindled
Love the production as always!
Who’d of thought this was absolutely riveting? I’m now 4 hours in? Blinding. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I wish we could see more customer reactions. Even if we don’t see their faces. The shoes look amazing!
WOW ! What a transformation ! Well done 🤩😍👍
How have I not found this channel earlier. Instant sub , and now I shall binge all content ;)
Way to go. Keep craftsmanship alive!!!
By far the most satisfying part of these videos is his passion for his work. Wish I felt that way about my day job!
Fantastic job Dan!
Beautiful job on those boots. Keep up the great work!
You are classical British beauty, gorgeous, skilled and charismatic!
Wow they Look soo good! You are a Real artist in what You do! Best regards from Germany
Great transformation Dan :)
Bravo good job my friend. Congratulations.
Always loved my Timbers ❤️❤️❤️, thank you!
Dan, great channel. Keep up the great work! From Atlanta, USA.
I got here looking for ways to clean stains out of nubuck. I ended up watching this whole video. This process is fascinating. I really appreciate the detail you put in here. I've learned something new today.
Brilliant work
That was an Awesome repair for such an old pair of shoes. As always incredible job.
Timberland are raging mad about this video as they want you to always buy new boots but this guy is ex forces and knows his stuff
Haven’t watch in a few month wow … glad to be back 🎉
wow, absolutely stunning job!!!
How did I get here? I was watching something else, and when I come back this beautiful human is on my screen. Great job on the boots by the way!

truly amazing!
damn that was awesome. cant believe how much you brought them back. pretty cool
Fascinating to watch. Thanks.
Thanks for the pricing at the end, seems like not a bad price considering the work and materials. My 20 yr old black timberlands are still in good shape, but it's nice to know this is possible.
Loving this transformation
Feels like a intro masterclass, awesome job, truly a craftsman at his work.
That was a pleasure to watch. I have some Doc Martin work boots that are around forty years old and had a resole about fifteen years ago. I did once get a cheap pair of work boots and they lasted about three weeks before the polyurethane soles fell apart. I got my money back
Fantastic work bravo 👏
Super job
These 30+ year old boots will probably outlast my work boots brand new.
Another lovely neat job with great attention to detail
They look fantastic 😃
God I love this channel. 💖 The only cobbler serving cakes.
I enjoy you’re enthusiasm.
Hi Dan. You did a perfect job again👍
You are a shoe magician where miracle(s) are daily! Well done and thank you Dan! 👏🔥🔥🎉💫
Love your channel. Timberlands are my favourite footwear, I still live in the 90's in my head. Many times iv wanted old boots repaired but the prices quoted where similar to buying a new pair. Unless they're sentimental it's not worth it. These boots cost £150 to buy and would have been £50 in the early 90's. That guy loved them boots.
Keep up the great work.
Honestly amazing
Thanks for the video. The Tims look fantastic especially coming from the state they were in before. 🙌
Hottest cobbler I’ve ever seen, and surprisingly pretty hands for working with machine equipment etc. all day😝
Can I send you shoes?? Yes... Cool job Dan... Those Tim's looked beautiful!! ✌🏼💗😊❣️
I had no idea you could restore those kind of boots/shoes that way, I`m now determined not to throw any of mine away ever, from now on, I`m just gonna find a decent cobbler here in Scotland & get them repaired!
Great work !
Damn proper job! Amazing!
Man, these vids are like butter to bread. Lightens up your day. :D Keep it up Mr. Dan!
