i can barely tie my shoes and yet i watch these incredible craftsmen with rapt attention. and as a North Carolinian love knowing you all are local. many thanks!

Awesome video. Love the mutual respect cobblers have for each other. As a Wyatt and Dad customer (two re-crafts and counting), I can’t say enough about Cobbler Tony and Cobbler Tobias. Their work is top notch. Thanks for sharing your trip with us!

Certainly a pair of boots that I would buy.

That looks 1,000% better than the original foam one. I must say I am not a fan of how those look AT ALL. You guys improved that boot to its full potential!

I love the story. Keep the craft alive! Subscribed.

Love the history behind your business and love the quality craftmanship. Thanks for sharing and good luck out there on the lake!

I really enjoyed this video it's good to see some solid craftsmanship going into them boots very nice

That's a sweet look for those mocs!

I just found your videos and I gotta say, I LOVE the content. watching y'all work leather is therapeutic, and it really reminds me of the days of sitting in my grandpa's garage, watching him build stuff. thank you for that. when my boots are ready for work, you'll get my work, guaranteed.

Outstanding craftsmanship

Awesome talent thank you for doing this video

Awesome recraft... and give thanks for the lil' history of W&DCC. BIG UPs!

Happy that yall are my local cobbler! Makes me look forward to wearing out soles.

Beautiful job on those!

It was awesome to hear from Ricky how the business got started. The boots look amazing. Ricky passing the torch onto his brother, Tony at the end of the video was a nice touch. Pulled at the heartstrings for sure. Thanks so much for sharing your story with us.

Hell Yes! Thanks for sharing Ricky's story. What a foundation for your company! To the next generation... cheers!

Great work. Those are sharp. Look way better after the resole.

Hey I just found you and I want to say that your editing and overall vibe of the videos is on point. Keep up the good work

Just bought my first pair of Thorogood boots. Great not for the price. I wish I hadn't purchased the comp toe design and would love to have them converted into a moc toe style. Not a shoe repair business in my area that has a cobbler willing to do the work. Would love for these folks to take on my project.

These are amazing! Well done!🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

Those look awesome!!!

Love the way those turned out!

Thanks for the video. I enjoyed the history.

Well done. Good looking boot.

No silly sneaker sole…what a wonderful boot it has become! ❤

I 100% agree with he's comment about people like quality & appreciate it. These guys are the best of the best in my eyes!!

I want! So Bad Azz! I would so love to wear these while riding my Harley. Just purchased a pair of black Iron Rangers, otherwise I’d try sourcing a pair of these to have resoled with the thick stained leather midsole, and black 100 lug sole. These are the best looking Thorogoods I’ve ever seen. And I love the traditional tan and white wedge sole. Nice job! 😃👍

Another quality job… That’s why I sent my boots to you guys. 👍🏻

Great looking boots

I didn't think I was gonna like these shoes, but they came out beautiful!

Wow. I had no idea you guys were in Winston, I live in Colfax NC! Super awesome to know!

Fantastic content 👌 👏 👍

Looks great.

Nice work.

Damn, those look fantastic.

Outstanding. It hurts my cheap side to see new soles removed. Thorodood is my everyday boot. I get them because they do not take months to break in. I like wedge soles because I'm old, and that seems easiest on my feet. Everyone has different needs and preferences. It takes guys like you to give people that. The thick midsole is awesome. Finished product is just a good looking boot. So nice.

I need to send in my Irish setter wing shooters for that logger package! Those look great!

I would definitely buy these .

Amazing.

Someday, when my Solovair 8 eye derbys wear out the sole, I want to have them do this to them. That thick leather midsole and heel combo looks great!!

I really really admire the craftsmanship of thisI can admire your skill but not the brand. Please I’m not being offensive to you nor your impeccable skills but I’ve owned two pairs of Thorogoods. A pair of ‘57 Flyways and a pair of Midnights and I’ll say one thing, I wouldn’t have even spent the money on a resole for either of them. The leather on both broke down rather quickly and though comfortable at first but it became apparent rather quickly that they were just another disposable boot brand.

Dang that looks good. I have some tobacco ones that the sole is coming undone on so I may want to go this route for my resole!

Outstanding im glad someone else had my idea. I bought three Thorogood 1957s in a row and all had cracked midsoles from the factory. And so I am going to recraft the fourth 1957 and make it the right way. Like Ricky Wyatt said " if the job is worth it, then do it right ". Thorogood isnt making them right with synthetic construction and it shows..

What a wonderful family story and heritage! I can’t believe how beautiful and different the boots look with the Vibram sole, excellent job! May I ask, what grit sand paper did you use on the finished welts? What was the brown dressing product applied? My old Red Wings could really use a good clean up. Thank you sir!😎

Take my Money! Absolutely Beautiful!

You guys are awesome. Those boots. Nothing like that in the UK

They look great! I would like to get more info on having a pair made like these.

I agree they do look much cooler.

Looks like their Flyway boot but I didn’t think they came with the crepe sole. Nice finish product.

The BEST!!!!!!!

NICE VIDEO GUYS.

very nice boot recrafting! any idea what each boot weighed when “loggered”? would be great for Harley touring!👍😎

Just went from comfortable to uncomfortable

Amazing job!! Are those black leather, or is that just the camera ???

Love it

That. Look. Bad. Ass. Nice. Job. I. Subscibed

I couldn't care less about those boots. But listening to the narrative about his career, the pride in craft, was worth every penny.

Would you guys blake sew trough the gemming and insole to attach a 2mm leather insole to a fibre board insole ?

How do one find a good teacher like these fine gentleman? Been trying to learn from a few Cobblers here in NYC but most are not interested or too busy

Tony just finished the boots because he was missing the camera time. I refuse to believe any other explanation.

Do not operate without eye protection. Hah!

What soles did you put on? I think I missed the name when i watched. Those came out really nice.

Ok, now you gave me ideas for my next pair of Thorogoods. How much does a resole like this go for?

Hey guys, I have the same pair of Thorogood boots as in this video, can I send them to you? I want the exact sam job done! Wow they look great!

I'm kind of surprised at how easily the outsole came off.

They look so much better like this !

Midsole is a little too thick for my taste but overall looks pretty good

As you probably know, the tongue is very wide. Any recommendations?

Don't all the Thorogood's have a synthetic welt? Or was this one leather? If you're tearing it down that far, may as well replace with a good leather welt.

I have a pair of whites moc toe that I would love to get the same done. How can I contact you for pricing and how to mail them?

I want a pair.....what do I have to do to get them?

What’s the cost for something like that

man I'd love a pair of thorogoods with a heel like that.. Never a big fan of the wedge soles.

What does this package cost?

Now that is a boot! Those Christy soles are an abomination IMHO. If that white sole is your style I would suggest the Gloxi sole over the Christy any day. Just an opinion...

We all agree what a waste of time and energy perfectly fine new boots

Looks great... How much something like that cost..

Where's the 'add to cart' button.

Total recraft or a resole?

con la suela original se ven mejor

Time 18:08 the cork doesn't look like such a great job. Just saying!! I'd be disappointed to be honest!!

Carolina boots way better and comfortable boots

Wait if I watched correctly you kept the Synthetic welt? Honestly they are garbage.

People like to talk about themselves. You just repair shoes dude chill out. The money spent on this pair of boots is equal to just buying a handmade Pacific Northwest boot like a nicks. It’ll have way better leather and materials as well

What does something like that cost?

Almost a crime to do that to a brand new pair of Thorogoods. Do you do flat re sole heavy duty?

I really love the idea of shoe color customization. Just like buying a Harley Davidson And customizing it for your own home. Tailored to your needs or desires. It makes a lot of sense your feet are very important the foundation I’m getting around even the common man needs to stop buying cheap stop specially nowadays and buy shoes or boots that I rebuildable. America needs to get back to these basics. With the families and building wealth through long-term thinking. That’s all the elites do it with their families to even those evil summer and maybe they still think of their families. They got us to forget about our families and big of ourselves maybe we should do that starting with her shoes
