John Lobb Day, Restoring a few pairs today

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

I’ve got about 5 pairs to do but only recorded 2 of the pairs. Also a single shoe to dissect and show the inner details of a John Lobb shoe.

    There was a guy way back that used to complain about the hammering. It was hilarious 🤣🤣🤣 Steve got mileage out of that one.

    Steve, wow! All of those were great and I could literally sit and watch you work like this all day. Okay in fairness I do binge sometimes while I am working on my projects and have to go back and watch them over and over to see you actually do the work. While I am not a shoe maker I am not easily impressed and you sir impress me every time I watch you work! Can wait to make my trip back to the DC area so I can come visit you and the shop. Thanks for sharing your journey, skill set, craftsmanship, and adventures in shoe repair and making; I appreciate you sir!

    Years ago, a traveling Gypsy tinker ruined the scissors. Years have passed, and the scissors still aren't fixed. But Steve has time to sharpen disposable razor blades. Sounds like how my Dad & I work. That's why I watch this guy.

    Steve, I'm beginning to appreciate the importance of water in shoe quality & maintenance from your work. As in our skin: for supple, strong & elastic skin, water is a key ingredient. Everyone may know to apply wax/oil regularly for shoe health. Yet, what makes a person's age become apparent to all? Wrinkles, mainly the loss of water. So also with our shoes. Still learning. Muchas gracias, Steve.

    Steve Happy Thanksgiving. I have said it before and I will say it again. You can’t Please Everyone lol. Negative comments come to a channel when the fool leaving the negativity always realizes that they can’t possibly do anything remotely close to what they have watched. In other words they couldn’t put a blemish on your ass if they tried. You are a True Craftsman and I have been watching you for years and I totally respect what you do with every job you do. Thanks for another Great Video the shoes came out Fantastic as usual. God Bless ❤

    The more I watch these videos, the more I'm impressed how you navigate the do or die moments. The ones where a slip of the knife, sewing machine, or even slip of the sander can mess up everything you're doing. Seems like there are no do-overs in those instances.

    Great job. The thing is there’s John Lobb and then there’s John Lobb. One, which is still owned by Lobb’s family, has a shop in St James in London, which mainly does bespoke shoes. If you get to enter their shop you’ll find a little side room where people are labouring away making bespoke shoe lasts for customers. The other John Lobb, which does ready to wear as well as made to order and bespoke, is now owned by the French luxury brand Hermes. Both trade on the same heritage so it can sometimes be difficult to tell them apart.

My shoes are nowhere near the high-end expensive ones you work on, but I do need some cosmetic repair done on some Stacy Adams and Dr. Martens. Keep the sanity alive and best wishes to you and yours!

The shoes and the quality you show us makes me wish I could buy these young men better quality shoes and essemble. I know that is not what God sees in the young men. I appreciate all that you teach us.
