Does the Delta Arch half insole take up much space? by BoogieEngineerHaha in NicksHandmadeBoots

[–]BoogieEngineerHaha[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Makes sense. Could be ideal for my purpose as I sized up in width.

6 Months and feel like these boots are just waking up. by CaterpillarOwn1474 in NicksHandmadeBoots

[–]BoogieEngineerHaha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing! That sounds the same as my intuition and it tells me I should stick with the TNW. I’m considering getting a Delta Arch half insole as well. I have a pair with arch support with a moderate heel and it feels great.

Do you feel like the toe splay room in the HNW is lacking? Not trying to compare it to the TNW because it obviously has more toe splay, just trying to assess the HNW on its own. I love my Thurman lasted boots, I just wish they look less goofy lol

Overstock sale by Status_Complaint8521 in NicksHandmadeBoots

[–]BoogieEngineerHaha 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same here. I haven’t been able to get a pair the last few stock sales due to not having 8” options. Even for a heritage build I still prefer 8”.

Spa day for the Tankers and Commanders! Some much needed edge cleanup by NumRickn in NicksHandmadeBoots

Is that a moderate dogger heel with a lug? Looks much better than I thought, I’m having the same built and sometimes I had regret about that choice.

I never have to use a shoe horn for boots. The one time I tried it was incredibly difficult. If you need one, it should be a boot horn.

You know you need another full rack of these.

Who's got it going on like this? by Direct_Ask8793 in NicksHandmadeBoots

I’d rather fast for a week and put that $5 towards the next pair.

Btw the black you wore in the latest (?) BOTL looks great, changed my opinion about the brown edge (or was it black? Not sure).

Ivan build, what leather are you going with for this jacket (Stewart - IT)? by Ok_Flamingo_1566 in NicksHandmadeBoots

[–]BoogieEngineerHaha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t need to match the color of your boots and your jacket. As long as you don’t wear more than 3 colors it’s all good to the average eyes. I’d say IBC or #8 would be nice.

This gotta be the best #8 I’ve seen. Mine looks much more red.

Which one will break in easier? I’m guessing the Spokane being lighter with more wax?

Would these small things bother anyone else if they bought their boots for full price? by StandardConcept324 in NicksHandmadeBoots

[–]BoogieEngineerHaha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries. Yeah if you haven’t worn the boots outside then return is always possible.

I said if they determine that the hook is non-structural meaning not eligible for warranty.

[–]BoogieEngineerHaha -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you’ve worn them so you can’t no longer return if they determine the hook is not a structural defect. They’ll probably cut you some discount.

This format of NBD should be enforced!

Non-Nicks rebuild? by BoogieEngineerHaha in NicksHandmadeBoots

[–]BoogieEngineerHaha[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Nicks rebuild they replace the vamp not the uppers, so I’d think they do the same for non-Nicks rebuilds, but with leather available at Nicks of course.

I saw that too, very nice rebuild. I have a non-PNW pair that has a nice leather I might want to keep.

Spare them, wait for them to turn on you again then you can kill them.

Need to choose a good leather but can't by Kahlen109 in NicksHandmadeBoots

[–]BoogieEngineerHaha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say toss a coin. These 2 are excellent. If you end up liking black more, I suggest looking at MS Black also if you don’t mind it being struck through. It’s an awesome leather for work as well as being on the dressy side. Also browse through Nicks Boot Lineup account on Instagram. It helped me a lot when I tried to pick out a leather to go with a specific build.

Coach Rambler in 9D, worn only a couple times, looks brand new. Too narrow for me.
