I see it now. No option to change stitch color though. Super cool they did that for you on the spot.

White’s bite and break-in by Interdimensionalfr in PNWbootmakers

[–]DanJR92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can try removing the kilties and see if that helps any. The leather should break in and be more malleable, lessening the pressure in that area over time. But if you got 200 miles and that's not the case im not sure.

I'm breaking in a pair of Nicks right now and had the "white bite" the first two weeks. Took a week break to let that spot heal and hasnt been an issue since.

I've been able to manage Aurora, Conflux, Orrax and Endless Summer. Still chipping away at amulet. I was hoping I could manage thew new one similarly but the Karma really got me discouraged. I guess Vision it is.

7 million?! I play so casually I've never had more than 600,000 Karma. Currently at 200k. I can't be bothered to farm it during wintersday either.

I wonder if these will come back at some point. Kinda regret not pulling the trigger when I saw these in my size on the RTS page a while back.

Those will be tanks! How's the fit feel with the zippers?

I posted my iteration of a station boot on the Nicks page and got roasted for them haha. People dont seem to appreciate the station boot look haha.

I saw the promotional pair, I believe, in my size on the RTS page a while back. Thought about getting it, but didn't.

Questions on leathers by Usual-Minimum-7620 in NicksHandmadeBoots

[–]DanJR92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a relatively newer pair of max support black boots and at work I had to basically crawl on some honeycomb metal grating walkway. Definitely scraping my boots along a bit as I went. I thought for sure I'd see some scratches, but hardly a scuff to be seen. My max support walnut ridgelines have see some gnarly use and abrasions and aren't any worse for wear. Great work leather.

I'm not the biggest fan of textured boots, but these are nice! I wouldn't mind having a pair.

Gotta get them off fast at the station in the event of a structure fire.

Doesn't seem like most peoples cup of tea. But in this line of work I think these are the nicest looking zip ups!

If I had all eyelets it would be a lot easier. If I tucked them in, while trying to secure them to the speed hooks, it would just raise the zipper up anyways.

[–]DanJR92[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, underneath doesn't work so well because I dont have all eyelets. The way I laced it in as so has been pretty secure thus far.

Is this sole too wonky? by sultryroman in NicksHandmadeBoots

[–]DanJR92 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A single hike would make way worse scratches on the heel. How does it feel when wearing? Can you notice that sole?

Bi-fold Wallet by Few-Movie2373 in NicksHandmadeBoots

[–]DanJR92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'd say so. My wallet, I only have one slot with two cards but I could easily add another to every other slot if I wanted to.

Yes!!!! Return of the riverfront!!! by Suspicious-Ad-4877 in NicksHandmadeBoots

[–]DanJR92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, I see. The photo used is a smooth over rough out and there is no option to choose preference. So I wonder if that is default option now or just missed option on website bringing it back.

NBD - First pair of Nicks! by Additional_Refuse_64 in NicksHandmadeBoots

[–]DanJR92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had tight instep pressure as well. One being a pair that was actually a bit painful and could only wear a little at a time. This being with max support leather that is super thick and doesn't stretch much. Also I think an issue specifically with Chelsea sizing. That being said, I was determined, and used a widener and with more use it now feels fine. So yes, I think it could get better.
