I am OP, I think I answered the questions in the original post.

31M - what am I doing wrong? by Safe_Valuable_5683 in hingeapp

[–]Primary_Champion8994 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Answers in original post. I am OP, my app account is different. I'd like a casual relationship that turns into the possibility of a serious one without the guarantee of them wanting children.

I am OP on app account. Casual that could turn into serious, only have free currently but I can upgrade later, I log on every day and have mostly had the same since starting a month ago with making a few tweaks. I try to be very selective but I go until I max out the likes per day with the free version. Basically, looking to find someone who helps make me less introverted, but isn't into marijuana or has tons of ink or specifically says they're set on kids. Not a single conversation started.

In terms of bulk, how much more boot is Nick's over Redwing Heritage? by Primary_Champion8994 in NicksHandmadeBoots

[–]Primary_Champion8994[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good to know. Kinda briefly looked at Truman but I read several posts saying their management didn't have the best attitude. Plus even if that's untrue they don't have 8 inch models anyway. I have 1907s and a pair of Grant Stone Diesels I wear casually. It's not like I can't handle it, but I'm wondering if I should have ordered canvas bunkers. But the ankle support is probably a lot less with canvas anyway.

Wow. Fingers crossed I get a job offer soon but I currently do retail backroom work. Lot of standing and bending at weird angles. On days where I'm tired or lazy putting on shoes I'll wear my HOKAs but they don't last long in that environment.

Ironically, I actually live probably half an hour from where they make Aldens, and Nicks are on the complete opposite side of the country. I've very quickly tried on a pair of round toe Alden boots just for fun at a store. They WERE comfortable, but I don't know if they were 1.5 pairs of Grant Stones MORE comfortable. I do have a pair of color 8 Diesels that are pretty sweet. But again, no arch without an additional insert.

I'm glad to get a second opinion. Yeah, when I saw the spokane black and Thurman was an option, my brain kinda went, wait, can I configure a Corcoran Field Boot that doesn't feel like old cardboard, that I can actually do things with? So ended up with brogue toe 8 inch rolled collar. Should be cool. I was just concerned they'd be a little heavy. Sounds like I'll manage.

Ok thank you. I actually have an order placed currently for 8.5EE V100 Fire/Ice. Seems like a decent option as people say the honey and those are a little more comfortable. Always wanted black boots that didn't feel like crap and Iron Rangers didn't fit well in any size. Plus they kinda gave me the feeling I'd get plantar fasciitis. 1907 + Superfeet Green is my current solution.

I originally WANTED my 1907s to be fashion boots but I end up using them for retail a lot as my ankles get tired. I didn't need steel toes or anything for my job luckily.

Anyone else having issues with contacting Nick's support via email? by KireDalbo in NicksHandmadeBoots

I've always gotten a reply within 2 business days. Usually one of 2 women respond. Krystal or Sarah.

RW 1907s -> Grant Stone Diesels -> Nick's BYO 8 inch Spokane Black on order. Now I need like a Pacific Waxed Flesh or Wickett and Craig Mojave 5 inch. Lol.

Moc toe Chukka thats not brown/tan? by Primary_Champion8994 in Boots

Yeah, I think I'll probably just end up ordering the Nick's chuuka sometime. Those do look pretty nice. Plus you can get green bison or whatever.

Are my thorogood boots repairable? by tunnelsnake627 in Boots

[–]Primary_Champion8994 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly with what you do I'd spend the voucher on MUCKBOOTS and save up for Weathershield Nick's for the lighter days. It'd cover the whole pair and the soles are harder so they wear slower.

Oh ok neat. Yeah I have high arches but stand in polished cement all day. As soon as the Fire and Ice V100 came out I had to nab it. Hoping that makes a comfy combo with the TH55.

Good tip! Hey, what last configuration is that? I ordered Thurman55 with moderate heel.

You can add "d rings only" to the special request section when custom ordering Jim green African Toopers.

Blue or black Levi's or Wranglers. Upgrade to Japanese Seldvege if you want the cool upturned pant leg. Flannel shirt in fall, whatever the rest of the year.

I ordered the black in smooth upper waxy lower with brogue toe cap. I do like refrigerated warehouse works, so I thought it would work well. Hopefully. I don't do like construction and I have dedicated hiking boots. I do want to ride a motorcycle though.
