How to make a shoe - Part 3.

[KustomFu]

this is an awesome video and I appreciate all the work and craftsmanship that goes into making these.... but OMG I'm so glad for cheap chinese $20 shoes, I would always be barefoot if this was the only way to make shoes now.

[MarcellHUN]

@KustomFu That is called "demand". Having a wide selection is a good thing. On the other hand consider this: if shoemaking would have died out (practically), shoemakers would be able to produce shoes for around 100 USD, and chinese shoes would be sold around 50. And I believe I don't need to explain how much better to wear something from real leather than plastic.

[monchinee]

one wrong move and that shoe would be a waste

[MarcellHUN]

@monchinee very true.

[DistendedPerinium]

In a world where everything is mass-produced on an assembly line, I think that it has become somewhat lost that real craftsmen were also artisans as well. I think this is one of the real treasures that Youtube has to offer; showing people that so-called "lost arts" like this are still being practiced and inspiring others to take up a craft. I myself have not ignored this and am looking into blacksmithing.

[Dudecifer]

@DistendedPerinium agreed

[brainrubber]

I won't ever say that the shoes that I byu are too expensive :/

[violetmatthers]

WOWWWW soo Beautiful such a "fine" art! :)

[desain2]

[ucheprof]

Thank your sir for ur reply i a shoe maker specialized on slippers i want to be an apprentice in your workshop im currently in malaysia so how do i get started?

[ucheprof]

[MarcellHUN]

@ucheprof It was many year ago, I don't remember the name of that stuff. You can just use white Kiwi.

[dishbork]

[cutenukkah]

[MarcellHUN]

@cutenukkah

The upcoming courses in NYC will be held this June. You can learn about the courses at w w w . shomakingcourse . c o m.

There are different kinds of shoomaking techniques you can choose from: men's basic and advanced, high heel shoemaking and shoe design and pattern making as well.

[shawnstam]

at 0:17 I rubbed one off to the woman I saw. I am now going to fuck my shoe and spewg in it . ha ha ha wooooooooo

[MarcellHUN]

To see me live, and to experience what it feels like to be a shoemaker, come to my hands-on course in New York in November, or be an apprentice in my workshop for a month in Budapest, Hungary.

[veronicablack2]

wow todo un arte gracias por poner este video!

[Jinxxed0]

so you use the wood thingy to make the hole and the needle/thread stuff to sew? i was wondering what the wood thingy was for

[caliopeandco]

I love it!This is a quality work.This is how the real shoes are made.I only have seen in Romania handmade shoes..:)

[Supaxdemon]

idiot all this hard work just go buy ones instead of sweatin so much to make them shoes!!

[pannyhoze]

Philistine! These are a work of ART you ignorant Barbarian.

[sandoula]

incredible, quality, that worths to pay something more, too much work and talend

[lumberjackdani]

Now how much would those sell for?

[MaurizioBustos]

is that a cottonthread with a beeswax coating...?

[MarcellHUN]

Cottons thread is right, only beeswax is not enough for this. We mix it with other stuffs.

[MarcellHUN]

Actually not goodyear, but very similar. English-sewn.

[grindoc78]

This is the goodyear.

[Jesusisyhwh]

That looks kind of like a planishing hammer. What do you call it?

[Angyboi]

Is this what we call the "goodyear" construction?

[MarcellHUN]

nope. But very similar. Goodyear is made by machines.

[shug6009]

Very mesmerizing... No wonder why good handmade shoes cost about $300 and up.

[sarahnorth27]

Wonderful - a real craftsman at work!

[utooth]

Will ther be a fourth video showing how the sole is attached?

[utooth]

How about some more music. The last one was great in video 2

[utooth]

there is so much detail in what you are doing it is easy to see how it takes such a long time to hand make shoes. Congratulations on a job well done.

[artzend01]

Another good one Marcell.
