Thanks! Thats the plan hopefully

First off, the bloopers were priceless. Thanks. Second, that was an awesome example & tutorial. Thanks for sharing, Dan. Welcome Kirsty.

The big man is back and it is good to see you good sir. Hope you’ve been well.

Came for Kirsty's pretty face, stayed for the Colossus of Cobbler's dulcet tones, tricked me into learning about dying a leather shoe. Something I didn't even know people did. I mean most of that isn't true, been a sub for quite a while now, but truly didn't know people dyed their leather shoes. I may not own many nice leather shoes, but I damn sure know how to take care of them properly now thanks to this channel. Looks like completely different shoe at the end, amazes me what people who know their trade can do. And it's always nice to see the behind the camera talent as well as the on camera talent.

Great Video. I loved the blooper part at the end. That was fun.

Excellent work Mr. Dan,thank you for taking us through it step by step. 👍👍😊

Loved that final colour. Loved the camera Kirsty too 😄

Always a pleasure watching your videos. So fascinating to see old world trades still in practice.

Cheers Dan awesome to have you back 👍👍

You’ve been an inspiration to us❤❤

My favorite - a new Dan the Cobbler video 😊😊🤘🏻🤘🏻👏🏻👏🏻👞👞

Good to see the artist at work🤘🏻 I’ve been giving drum lessons, playing shows, and the occasional 🏄🏻‍♂️🏄🏻‍♂️

Dan has a mustache now!

Great stuff, that was a treat to watch how the shoe transformed.

Good to see Dan and the gang. Always feel more relaxed after watching your videos. Thanks!

Kirsty giving off mad Sansa Stark vibes , love your videos Dan .

Great job Dan! I’m going to work on the same style shoe in a maroon. 👍🏽

So impressive to see someone take the time to master a trade.

Always enjoy your videos, and admire your craftsmanship.🇦🇺

Awesome, Kristy nice to meet you. Great work

Hi so good to see a real cobbler at work. I need to know if you have a way of stretching a new pair of leather boots. I have had 3 pairs of Hotters extra wide boots and they saved this old girl's life. Hotters decided to change the toe box because women want to look petite and not comfortable. It is amazing what a few millimetres does. If you can help, this would be a life saver and before I forget, I do wear orthoptics, but wore them in my old boots to. Thank you for coming on KZread, because I find the other technical places a bit confusing. Take care and hope you can help.

New subscriber Dan, what a brilliant channel! Got some catching up to do. I cant help but notice your love of watches. I would think some folk in the watch trade would be happy to get their products so many views. Carry On Cobbling!

Really transformed those shoes. Very much like the new, dyed-darker color.

Dan the man is back!

terrific video as Usual.. Kristy is amazing.. she's got no aggressive makeup and her hairs are beautiful Omg ... You're nice too.. thou ..

Good to see your videos up again. It has been fun to watch this lost 'art'.

You rock dan. Congrats on the videos and success. I’m from mn USA . Been riding my dirt bike thanks for asking. I know you did a video on dirt bike boots. What’s that dead lift up too bruh. Hi Kirstie 👋🥰

Glad to see you back!

Thanks Dan, that was very helpful.

Wonderful video as usual Dan! Thanks

Dan the Man 💪🏻

Thank you for the video! Stunning result.

Hello Dan and good luck with the new name and format for the channel.

Didn't know I needed to see this cool cobbling content - thanks for sharing!

Awesome job! The shoe looks perfect. You are great.

Great video man, keep up the awesome work!

Nice planet ocean!👍🏻😉

He was not kidding when using three different products to remove any and all old conditioning. I learned that the hard way myself with a leather jacket. It looked like a Rorschach test after my first attempt because I didn't strip it down properly. I ended up using saddle soap, a wipe down with water, let it dry and then hit it hard with acetone. That did the trick and the next application of color took perfectly.

Dan you're dope at, i wish my body was as tone as yours

Good to see that you're practicing for that Mr House roleplay

New watch? Planet ocean? It's a beauty.❤

13:00 It turned out fantastic! Great job!

Pint of Guinness and a Dan the cobbler video, happy days 🍺🙂

Kristy looks weapons grade naughty with that choker and 'tude. The video was good too :P Ok, in all seriousness: The shoes turned out perfect once the cream was applied. Right after the dye was dry I thought everything looked at bit off. Perhaps because they were so incredibly mat from having all wax stripped, or perhaps because the cream adjusted the color just slightly. Now they'd also fit a whole lot more of my wardrobe. In fact, I don't have anything that goes with light tan.

Still working on that Earl Flynn mustache. Maybe a David Niven.

Shorter videos ROCK! 👍👏😀

Very nice.

Damn it Dan, I dyed mine last week & was looking for a pro tip then! Never mind, they worked out OK-ish. Just have a mild 'tan' line on my feet as a result 😂😂😂

Hi! Appreciate it there’s a lot of videos haha

I’ve been using kiwi on my work boots When I get my fancy pair of going to town boots, I’m definitely gonna have to get that better , polish and conditioner.

@andersjjensen

Ай бұрын

Kiwi is not outright trash tier, but their "trick" is that you end up using a lot of it. My job requires me to wear reasonably shined shoes, and in my experience it's not more than 10-20% more expensive in the long run to use the really good stuff like Saphir. It is, however, cheaper if you consider you own labour worth anything. It applies easier, it shines easier and a treatment lasts longer, so you can just give them a quick once-over with the brush to shine them up many many times before you need to treat them again.

@@dude28405 Yeah, if you work in abrasive conditions the leather will get worn though no matter what you do. A bit of Kiwi will help a bit against moisture ingress and make crap stick less, but you can't apply enough of anything to keep them alive.

Yep That toe came out super nice.

At 10:33 you hear the stitching machine. Have you got a helping hand at the shop now? Or have you always had? 😅

Aggresive arm wrestling ahaha

Nice stuf!

Woohoo

I should send you my cowboy work boot to do a half dye job to make it a two toned boot 😂

Not all leathers can be dyed. Only naked leathers (a type of leather that has no surface treatment or finishes other than leather factory applied dyeing) found mostly on more expensive shoes. Cheaper shoes usually have finished treated leather with a very thin plastic finish applied on the surface of the leather which the Saphir Renomat solvent or rubbing alcohol will not be able to remove sufficiently or at all so the Fiebing’s dye that you apply will not be able to penetrate well or at all and you’ll end up with a big mess.

10:24 just got a Yak hair brush - like you do…..😂

Спасибо за вашу работу

Good morning Mr Dan sir, we ( my wife and I) we’re wondering what kind of watch are you wearing ?

Hi Dan, great video, can this be done to a pair of Adidas Samba leather trainers, I want them all black.

Can you do a video on Mexican Pointy Boots repair. They are a bit specialist and I cant find a UK repairer.

She is lovely wow beautiful just beautiful I'm in love. Xxx

Looks fantastic, but tan, looks more burgundy/brown

I suggest a Steam Punk themed video to go with your stash🤩

Nice Omega

You started off with showing the right shoe and for end result,showing the left shoe...😊

Is the girl in the video presentation Ginger Spice from the Spice Girls?

Actually light brown is the fashion style right now, black and dark brown are out style wise.

Dark tan. That’s dark brown

Omega PO FTW! :-)

Dan what brand of horse hair brush and yak hair brush do you recommend

Bought an Amazon knockoff Renia style glue pot. Lasted one week and failed. Helluva mess. Just got a real Renia glue pot. How long has yours lasted? I’m keeping mine in a plastic tube just in case. Using Barge cement. Thank you, Larry down in Texas.

Would the old colour come through if they were scuffed?

Hi Dan, doing my first leather dye on a pair of old boots. How do you keep dye transfer to pants at a minimum?

Acetone would stripe that all off

You're a cobbler yet I've never seen you make a cobbler

Nice looking dye job, but I wouldn't call that tan. I would call it extremely dark brown. I think they started as dark tan. Lol

@Dan_the_cobbler

Ай бұрын

Dark tan is very dark, it’s dark brown with a red hue. Then there is medium tan, and light tan which is the most similar to how they started.

Why wouldn't you do that with shoe trees in the shoe? Wouldn't it get the creases out?

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

I still have issues with the dye bleeding even after buffing and nourishing. Is there anything I can do to fix this issue?

@Propsbyben

Ай бұрын

when i do leather working and dyeing, especially with veg tan leathers, I use a top coat / sealer like resolene, gives a nice barrier between the leather and the world and helps prevent bleeding, also gives a nice shine.
