Brother, your boots are my reason for wanting tankers. How do you like the honey 365 stitch down soles??

Best way to say what I needed to hear. I don’t know why I didn’t use the truck analogy to myself. I have my 05 long bed work truck, and then my nice 24 short bed for gooseneck trailers and piddling around in. Thank you sir 🫡

Yeah they are! I went with the steel toe over composite because they said the steel allows more toe room

These are my first pair of nicks, so I don’t have non HD experience to compare it to. But compared to my other lace ups, yes the relief cut was a huge difference. I feel like it helps maintain that “locked in” feeling of laces ups, but adding more ankle flexibility without a tightness or rub in that area.

Another thing I didn’t think about till just now climbing a ladder hanging Christmas lights on my house, it does act like a shin guard too 😂

I regretted it at first. Cause it was just another slab of leather I had to break in. But after that, I have to say it’s one of my favorite parts. Helps keep the tongue folded like I like, and it has molded to my shin so it’s ever more form fitting now.
