Chronologically. You said it right! Haaa! Nice collection, brother. I'm looking to get a pair of Nicks myself. I'm looking at the Overlander (which I see you have also). You must make good money to be able to afford all those Nicks boots! Thanks for sharing. You are a very kind and respectful man, and very humble. It's good to see such hardworking people sharing their stories. You did a most excellent job with the video. Stay safe brother.

Dude you are just fine reviewing these products. I have 2 pairs myself. I have the travelers in predator orange (would've got the 1964 medium brown if it was out by the time I ordered) with the 2021 sand wedge sole because I work on flat concrete floors for 12 hours plus a day. I also bought builder pros full walnut roughout (I live in NY so slightly attempting to imitate a Timberland but 1000x the quality) with a honey lug sole. I just recently ordered a pair of falcons in medium brown veg tan because I realized I needed a more dressy/casual setting boot that I can pair with jeans and not look like Im going to a work site. I love the brand, the comfort is incredible. Dont stop your Nick's boots rants I enjoy it and I'm sure other lovers of the brand do as well 😁

For my nicks boots I was also having a lot of chafing on my shin where the laces would push leather folds and rings down hard. It was only on one boot too. What fixed it for me was taking out the kilties and letting the laces massage and work the leather down and now they're super comfortable. I'll put the kilties back in soon and don't expect to have any issues.

I felt the same issue with tan rough out. I think it's just part of the break in. It shrinks a little in between uses but it goes away with time as the leather breaks in. Adding mink oil actually lossened up the leather and made it easier to break in for me. It will change color! Also if you work a dirty job in them they will get dirty and stay dirty.

Great job bud. Your videos and great reviews are one of the reasons why I purchased my first pair of Nicks. I’m a hardcore Red Wing boots guy but I need to try something different. The only thing I’m worry is the sizing on Nicks. I wear size 13 on regular sneakers ( Jordans, Nike), on Timberlands I’m size 12 and on Red Wings Heritage I’m size 11.5 (Iron Ranger, Blacksmith). I ordered a pair of Urban Logger(look like the Falcon) from Nicks on the HNW Last, size 11.5 so I hope they will fit. Please let me know your thoughts since you have a nice Nicks collection. My feet are regular (not wide or narrow). Thanks! 👍

Thanks for your incredible comment. Main difference it's Ranger stock with mini lug sole/ 8" height and Builder came with Lug sole and 10" height Rangers for me are more versatile since have heavy duty leather and Mini lug that give you the opportunity to look more casual and not many like a trade guy. The 8" helps for comfort and movement. Builders in 10" are quite for support for people who work in hard environments or using the body extremities a lot. I will suggest to go with the Ranger or take a hybrid liek the Overlander with lug sole. The lug sole it's more comfortable than any flat sole. It's heavier but if standing a lot of time consider the lug sole. Rangers are very comfortable when I do inspections and being in office, light duty work and driving. I prefer Rangers in that area. What are you thoughts brother?

Back in a day a few yrs ago was only 2 to 3 months now is almost 6 to 8 so I highly recommend the quick ship option. I would start with the most versatile boot either a Ranger which is a 8" height with a mini lug sole, then you will know if you want to go bigger with Builders Pro or lighter with 6" boots. If you may want your first work boot, then go Builder pro for sure. Worth every penny. Work leathers are the best IMO

The falcons have the celastic toe. Well I think is a bit of preference. The soft toe is comfortable but with time will collapse completely which doesn't bother me. Celastic toe is comfortable too but sometimes walking or kneeling will bother a bit the structured toe. Is not steel and with time will be wide and more flexible on the sides but the center will remain exactly hard like always. I recommend this to people that want to hold the shape or hold the space inside the boot, the soft tie had reduced space for sure.

Excellent, honest review -- thank you! Could you say a bit more about 6" vs. 8"? I understand that 8" provides more support for heavy duty work and 6" is fine for casual, but which would you say is more comfortable overall for a mix of activities? For example, if you could only have one height for everyday plus light-moderate work activity, which would it be? I also found your comments about the lug sole helpful. Even though the heavy duty Vibram V-100 sole is heavy, you're saying it's actually best if you're standing for long periods of time.
@MIIIB

Thanks a lot for the great comment! Very good questions. I been using the LTT a lot lately and it's definitely an amazing. If need it for mix of activities from casual to work and outdoors I will suggest the 6". I always lace to top since the last eyelets help me when sometimes the lace knot loose and they don't go out of the speed hooks. The lug sole is quite comfortable, people don't believe me when I say it but I think the weight distribution it's the factor and more cushion. The honey lug had a bit more cushion, not a super different feeling bit it's there. The 8" I will recommend more for only work or if you have been using a lot of high boots in your life, like I do. I can wear them for any occasion but I not lie that sometimes I like the 6" for casual. The shaft it's not that rigid so give comfort. I don't own any urban logger, but people swear it's an amazing combination and as far as I know it's the most selling boot by Nicks. You can try that one , a combo 6 and Lugs. Sounds cool. I'm not attracted since the Vbar is enough for me. I like that sole a lot. Plus you don't bring mud everywhere, easy to clean and long lasting. If you have more questions let me know!

@@MIIIB Thanks for the detailed reply! It sounds like you're saying 6" is enough for casual and light-moderate work boots -- that the slightly lower shaft (compared to 8") is comfortable and supportive enough. Regarding the sole, you say that the lug sole is quite comfortable and distributes the weight very well with excellent cushion. Yet Vbar is enough for you. Are you saying that you'd choose the lug sole in an 8-10" work boot but Vbar in a 6" boot where lighter weight and easier cleaning are factors?

@@boozunga123 The lug sole for me It's versatile due to my work line. I can do service calls in city, urban environment and move to out of town with cero concrete environments. The lugs give me traction and comfort. I can do everything with this sole but I don't want to leave all my mess in all my house and trucks. The V-Bar I like it for casual or light duty. I can do everything sure with this sole, and use it as work horse. I had done it before, but if going in terrains with many rocks and changing water valves below ground and mud everywhere, the lug sole will perform better. Casual and light duty, I mean by light any work to do in concrete / asphalt. The Vbar is perfect Heavy Duty. Lugs are perfect IF traction is required, the extra comfort is a plus. Both are comfortable. I can use them 14 hrs no deal, IN the Right environments. I think at this point I can say, go with what attracted you more in cosmetics, both will perform good. 💪🏻

Regarding comfort, I think you're saying that they're equally comfortable for standing for a long time (e.g., 14 hours) and that the only difference is performance, based on the environment the boots are in (e.g., rough, rocky terrain with moving water where the lug sole excels vs. flatter work environments, such as concrete/asphalt, where the Vbar is sufficient).

How is the soft toe compared to the celastic toe?
@MIIIB
Жыл бұрын
IMO both are comfortable, celastic give you more space/area, soft toe collapse so I recommend dont use soft toe with firm leathers like Latigo and Double Stuff. I think 64 work line is perfect for the celastic toe, as well the work leathers. Soft toe will give you a better fit since there is natural shape on vamp, celatic will mold with a lot of time. If is your first boot.
how is the comfort compared to the black lug sole vs the vbar. do you notice much of a difference. i have a pair of boots on order.

The Vbar is a good outsole. Easy clean, very long lasting and better than Minilug. Not as flexible is the con Lug sole #100 have more volume but in ny opinion is mire comfortable because of the cushion. Offers more thickness and a bit of weight. Honestly I think the major difference is just the volume and lug be more comfortable. I have to say will do more mess and pick chuncks of grass, soil, rocks so just let you know.

@@MIIIB thanks. i think for my work in an office type setting and just walking on the road the VBar is a better option. if i love the boots i may buy a builder pro with something like the honey vibram. i put 25 dollars off to the side every month so i can get things like that. kids and bills and inflation do set you back. thanks again.
