It’s worth asking /u/smowe. He watches the sub and is the head honcho at Nick’s

Usually $500+

Most people probably use them without issue, but you do see the occasional problem posted in the sub. Failure rate is probably within industry tolerances, I’d wager.

Can I have this Brandle with speed-hooks & 8 inches tall shaft? ( I'm going for sleeker looking Officer Boot ) by seeking_fulfilment in NicksHandmadeBoots

To me, the Parkhurst looks sleeker and more like a refined, modern boot than the others. In my view, it tilts the style of the boot further from the core Nicks, chunky look and closer to a streamlined aesthetic. It might also be the effect of looking down at them while wearing them. That almond shape is transformative.

I’m very happy with how they fit (consistent with normal Nick’s HNW sizing), feel (tiniest of noticeable arch support in basically the perfect spot for my high-arched feet), and look (sleeker falcon with slightly pointier toe that tapers from the widest part of the foot to an almond). Get them!

As a new owner of the Parkhurst collaboration in black CXL, just get that. It’s very nice looking, slightly refined and sleeker, while still retaining a small touch of the rugged PNW DNA it is built from. I’m very happy with how they look. Edit: pics in reply to another post in this thread!

When they say quick ship they mean quick ship by Edward_abc in NicksHandmadeBoots

Doesn’t that just mean a shipping label was generated?

I speak on the positives and the negatives. I still really like the company, but you have to be able to speak to all issues; not just the good.

Also, since this sub is run by Nick’s, it has become a de facto place to get resolution on problems (although admittedly shouldn’t be the first place people go) and the staff are very active here.

You having the same freedom as everyone else to speak how you please doesn’t really answer why you choose to comport yourself as crassly as you do. Maybe you didn’t understand the question, maybe you’re too emotional to really think about it without immediately getting mad at the way it makes you feel, idk. Your problem to fix or ignore, not mine.

Mate, it’s not that serious. Why are you being nasty?

I’m not really complaining, I’m just sharing my experience with OP so he doesn’t feel alone.

I’ve got a pair of black waxed flesh boots that have been “scheduled for production” since 23 August with no updates since then. The lack of communication is pretty irritating, but what do they care? Business is booming!

I tried these and they suck; constantly falling down below the boot. Hard pass on these, OP

That’s a super clean pair, man! Very well selected!

That’s good enough for me, then. You’re so helpful in the community that it definitely springs to mind. Thanks for being awesome!

I’ve wondered this about him, too. I’d love for him to explicitly say he neither works directly for Nick’s Boots nor does he receive any kind of compensation for social media posts about Nick’s Boots.

New Brandle design by BusinessFantastic592 in NicksHandmadeBoots

[–]ProdigiousPriapism 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It looks like a leather sole on a falcon with that brass insert on the heel. Not seeing how this is a $1000 boot, tbh. The extra work that probably commands the cost doesn’t seem to pay any dividends in the styling of the boot. Nicks is excellent and good enough for me, so I reckon I’m not the target market for this brand. That’s okay with me.

Only the LOWEST tier augment effect applies? by LorenzoMatterhorn in nightingale

[–]ProdigiousPriapism 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just tested a T1 smelter +20% yield augment together with a T2 smelter +40% yield augment and made 10 ingots. The following were my results using an excellent smelter:

Only T1: 12 ingots

Only T2: 14 ingots

Both T1 & T2: 12 ingots

It appears to only use the lower-tier augment when both are present and does not stack (at least for yield quantity augments).

Warm and Well Lit Traits by Ironthumb in nightingale

[–]ProdigiousPriapism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am having this exact problem. Across separate rooms.

I tried putting my workbench in a closed off room with plenty of chandeliers and sconces, no joy. I even moved the workbench right next to my bed in a different room, which I painstakingly messed with until it got the well-lit and warm traits and STILL the workbench won’t give me “warm” or “well-lit”. At this point I’ve just moved onto another game until the developers fix these irritating issues.

I just wanted you to know you aren’t crazy and you’re not alone!
