I missed this somehow, but it's an interesting look on how the factory has changed some. They have machines that cut the leather now. Kass is still working there, so I was happy to see that.
Also noticed this near the end of the video and made me smile.

America: A Horse With No ShameI've decided that I want to pay less in government theft, so I'm starting a personal travel/style blog (naturally with a YT channel I'm sure). I need help with a name. Suggestions so far:
Aging Raver Adventures
Studying Abroad With The Professor
If you have something else in mind, throw it at me. It'll be *centered* around the trips/adventures we go on, but there will be some style-related stuff as well just to kinda fill in the chunks of time where I don't go anywhere (which are fairly substantial, since I only get 30 days of leave a year).
Figure being able to deduct all that stuff from my taxes should make for a nice offset to buy more AE shell.
AW YEAH ON TOPIC AFTER ALL!!!
Anywho.

I swore I’d never post to this thread again, ‘cause you guys make me spend way too much money. But seeing some of these boots (@mreams99, I’m looking at you), now I think my Amex is about to get a work out.
But, this was an interesting video. I guess they’re selling enough of the speedwelt line to justify poron insole production day.
If I had to guess based on the production board and what was being cut & sewn, they appear to have centralized Bench Welt (e.g. regular AE’s that we buy) uppers production in Port Washington (which would explain the expensive new automated cutters).
And before it comes up (because it always comes up), same wooden shank at 6:23 in this late 40’s AE production video:
As Steve from Bedo’s has said, some models have ‘em, some don’t.
Also lol @ Steve nondescriptly inspecting the bin full of shoes awaiting recrafts.
