True craftsmanship like this is a dying breed. This was fascinating. It's a very labor intensive process to make a goodyear welted shoe. It really puts it in perspective when you wear a shoe like this that it's not just a shoe. It's a piece of art. Fine work, gentlemen

Isn't the goodyear welt typically done with a machine in just a couple of minutes? I heard it was a process invented for faster mass production.

Human Scales the tune is dope!! Whats it called??

Sheer poetry! To all those who keep the art and craft of great shoemaking alive a big THANK YOU!

Marvellous, this is one classic piece..the design of the shoes is timeless and hats off to all those hands that created this shoes. Thoroughly enjoyed watching this video..

There is something immensely satisfying about watching shoes being made. Even though there is not nearly the same amount of hand craftsmanship involved, I've come to appreciate my old Florsheims as they deserve .

This content made me content and I'm so happy I watched this these guys are highly skilled in a trade I've never seen. Bravo

Exceptionally well shot and edited, loved it

Incredible craftsmanship, definitely a dying breed. Great video and thank you for sharing.

Absolutely amazing. Do these guys know how good they are at this art?? Mesmerising. Bravo.

I appreciate that this video was not pretentious, most of these are people so full of themselves and it almost makes you hate the work they do, but this is quality made stuff to jazz and it's awesome.

Loved this! Incredible art, and a great video. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for the video, very informative and interesting to watch. Excellent craftsmanship!

Excellent job and thanks for sharing this Human Scales thumbs up!

This is amazing and I don't usualy mean that as much as I do now. Even the video production was very well made. Real good job!

To watch this art form in action is a thing of beauty.

Really is a work of art. Which is why you buy the shoe. Not because you need a nice looking quality shoe.

Really cool video. I paused it a lot to get a better grasp of what they were doing in certain spots... mostly the goodyear welt parts. It's honestly inspiring me to attempt to craft my own personal footwear (not as fancy of course).

This channels deserves more subscribers

Extremely beautiful shoes! Perfect job! I'd love to have one pair made exactly for my feet. :)

Those shoes you made look like they were made out of wood so beautiful what a great looking pair of shoes very impressed

Very talented people making those shoes.

this just made me look at my alden 405's in a whole new way. Amazing.

Amazing craftsmanship!

Although I agree with you in that I think most styles of Jordans are absolutely garbage and hideous. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and if you think they are right for you and if you can afford them then go for it! However the problem is Jordans have a high price tag and are often marketed to people who do not have a ton of expendable cash. This is the true crime, that the Jordan trade has such a dark history, keeping the poor, poor, providing low quality product at ridiculously high prices, and child slave labor. When I look at a shoe like the ones made in this video I see art, beauty, something to be enjoyed. When I look at a Jordan I see something cheap, ugly, meaningless, and harmful. The rabid fans of Jordans will kill their Mom's for the next $2,000 pair that comes out, despite often being in severe debt and having little to no income. Surprisingly though, I will say, Jordans continue to have a decent resale value, which does not give credit to quality rather than demand. It is the fans that put value on these shoes not the quality of how they are made or how they perform. I think that is the argument that Jake Wittenberg might have been trying to make. Given the quality of the product, the handmade nature, these shoes should be worth way more, Jordans being mass produced in a factory, and last a fraction of the time in use, well they just are not as good of a product for the price. They are the shoes for the depth-less, the carbon copy-wannabes, the band wagon hoppers. Jordans are not shoes for free willed, independent, classy, adults. Just my opinion and I am sure a ton of Jordan fans will get pissy, but it is not likely they're watching videos of how quality shoes are made so I think I am safe. They are too busy watching videos out there on how to pay more for less.

@@ProceduralAbberation agreed. I gotta admit that all fashion industry is harmful to the environment in general (chrome tanning residues, mink oils etc.), but "Fast Fashion" industry and hypebeast culture however is on a whole new level. It really does a detrimental damage to our planet with its synthetic material it used mainly. Those branded sneakers mostly aren't even durable nor it will withstand years of use, not to mention that the same people who bought pairs of collabs shoes ain't bother to repair/resole their shoes and likely buy a new one every 3 months for the drip.

Jordans are expensive because of resale value and collectibility. Everyone buying those shoes knows they aren’t amazing quality. It’s the same reason people collected baseball cards back in the day or magic cards now. They’re just pieces of paper, and everyone buying them is aware that what makes them expensive is their rarity

İmaj ayakkabı gururla sunar ☺️

Amazing video. I've been trying to find books on Goodyear welting and traditional shoe making. Can you recommend any resources or technical guides on this? Much appreciated.

Fucking awesome video, can you upload more of these videos where people make stuff by hand and showing the whole process?

Good stuff how can a person like me learn the art of making shoes am so much interested

Very good 👍👍👍👍

Excellent demo video because it shows a wholecut shoe, which is one piece of leather and according to what I've heard a little trickier to get exactly right. This is natural crust leather as well, no pigment or colour until dyed at the end with patina. Note how he trims the liner at the very very end then dyes/paints the exposed piece. V labour intensive which is why a 'mostly handmade' shoe is gonna cost you $300 plus. To be honest, anything less than that is usually an inferior product.

amazing!

I make mattresses. It really does give me that sense of pride that I’m part of the art of human made commodities. That said, these gentlemen are the better half of what we call the living essentials. So buy a quality shoe and a quality mattress because you’ll spend your whole life in any of the two.

So the nails that where hamered to the mold stay in the shoe after the mold was removed?

Hi Diogo! Im so sorry for not responding earlier. First they apply the color they then use an airbrush to create a shadow effect. It´s only a darker nuance. At last they polish using a shoe cream. There´s no special liquid applied prior to the burn process. Thank you for showing interest! Best

Nice work. Question, you do not find, when sewing the upper with the liner outside, that it changes the shape of the top line around the ankle? I’ve had this problem…. I understand the difficulties, using a flat bed sewing machine to do this part. I usually just sew the top line by hand to avoid this problem. Maybe the way you pre-glued it prevents issues? I usually only glue the adelaide and just the very top edge.. I am curious to see how they turn out. Excellent, thank you for posting!

Please correct if I'm wrong , this is not a Goodyear welt it is a handwelt..

Amazing work! Doesn't the sole have to have a canvass gemming for it to be a true Goodyear welt? Otherwise, isn't this just beautifully hand stitched shoe?

How much is this cost sir? It looks beautiful 😍

Wow

No cork in between the outer sole and inner sole?

I want to learn how to make shoes too...

It would be Excellent if the sole is Blind Stitched .... Thanks for sharing !

eh.......kinda.

Somehow I feel that the quality of the shoe from using this method will pay back for the customer in the long run.

Do they even make these? I went to the website and all I can see is faux welted shoes (uneven stitching per inch from top of the outsole to the bottom of outsole).

Seriously want to know what kind of stitching pattern or method the old man, who was clearly a master, used to fix the welt to the upper?

Where to buy these in the uk

what does fire at the 5:44 actually do ?

how long does it take up break in goodyear welted shoes? Just got alden 405s and they're really comfortable but the sole is really stiff because it's goodyear welted.

Hi,By all respect to those esteemed masters,the correct word should be "patuma" for weltingprocess,the word "gazuma" is for when you stitch the upper to the sole but this time the upper sole folded outwards from the mold.Thank you for the nice work,though.
