★ Thanks to Bridlen for hosting: http://bridlen.com/?ktk=YnJHczhNLWNjMjI2YzJkYzhm ★ See my other India video: A Guide to Business Casual Shoes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bYb-js0n_wc ★ Read the article: https://stridewise.com/bridlen-india-shoemaker/ I've been to shoe factories all over the world but In the city formerly known as Madras, Bridlen uses at least five techniques I'd never seen before: lining without glue, lasting without pulling, combining leather and steel shanks, and this hybrid Goodyear welt/ hand welt that made me have a total mental breakdown when I saw it happening in real life. Buckle up: whether or not you have any interest in India's shoemaking, Bridlen will blow your mind. 00:00 Why we're visiting Chennai 00:32 What kind of leather do you use? 01:01 Janus Calf suede 02:09 Shinki hikaku cordovan 02:44 Clicking the leather 04:16 Lasting the shoes 05:57 Lining the shoes without glue 07:38 Different leather insoles and outsoles 09:06 Hybrid hand welt Goodyear welt 11:32 The hybrid shank 12:02 Attaching the outsole 13:31 Bridlen's boondocker 13:58 Finishing 14:40 Wrapping up #madeinindia #indianshoes
