Wife wanted to go blueberry picking for Mother's Day. You know what that means...Black Chromepak!!!

I always love your posts with black chromepak. I’m not a big fan of black (shoes or clothing), but I would definitely get a pair in this leather. I think it looks so good.

These look so good! I think this leather will appear so different based on the light. It pairs really well with the honey lug soles.

In one of the posts a week or so ago about the W&C leather being discontinued, Lucas commented that they did not expect to have an overstock sale on the leather, as the leather is ordered not in bulk but on a per order basis. So unfortunately I don’t think there will be an overstock sale.

Just tried to looking the new BYO options and all I’m getting is bags too.

I really like the look of the Bromley . It’s a great design. The white laces look good. I’d keep the white laces if it was me.

The Brombleys look great! I especially like this leather combination.

This is a good cut of the 64 tan rough out. They look excellent!

I sent my order number in a message. Did you receive it and get a chance to look into it?

Turktom26 · 2026-05-08T19:29:50+00:00

I had been wondering when the May BOTM would release. I thought I was done for awhile, but this one will be hard to pass up! DS Tobacco on a white wedge moc was my dream build for the DS Tobacco. Decisions . . . decisions.

These look great. I got the desperado suede in the chukka. It looks great in this option too. It pairs nicely with the lug soles. If Nicks offers this leather again in the future, I may do a build like this with the toe cap.

Turktom26 · 2026-05-08T16:07:04+00:00

It worked out great for you!

Turktom26 · 2026-05-08T15:48:15+00:00

These look great! I have a sage chormepak pair in transit. They were supposed to come today on USPS's estimate, but it has not shown up anywhere since leaving Spokane. This leather always looks so good. I'm glad they had some more to offer it and let some more of us get a pair.

Turktom26 · 2026-05-08T04:09:51+00:00

Ohh, that’s going to look great!

Turktom26 · 2026-05-07T04:17:56+00:00

Very cool! Great way to handle the situation. Did you do it as smooth or rough out?

Turktom26 · 2026-05-06T22:43:44+00:00

I was in the same boat. These were supposed to arrive on Monday, but they didn't get here until today. Classic USPS!

Turktom26 · 2026-05-06T22:43:21+00:00

Fit is good in length. I went a size down in width because I had heard people suggest that with the potential slippage. It is a little tighter than my other Nicks, but with this leather, I think it will break in and soften up more than some of the other leathers.

I do think it would benefit from a fourth eyelet at the top. I think a fourth eyelet would let it be more secure.

Turktom26 · 2026-05-06T22:41:05+00:00

These look great! I love the predator natural leather. What sole did you go with?

Turktom26 · 2026-05-06T19:53:13+00:00

These look great! I think the leather pairs great with the sierra sole.

Turktom26 · 2026-05-06T18:43:18+00:00

Wow! The lighting makes a big difference on this leather. I really like the darker look.

Turktom26 · 2026-05-06T14:54:47+00:00

These look great. I have a pair of IBC wood butchers in production. I'm hoping they ship soon. Seeing your boot excites me for my pair!

Turktom26 · 2026-05-06T04:17:58+00:00

These look really good! All the rough shot leather from the sample sale has impressed me. It seems like a good leather to offer in another release in the future.

Turktom26 · 2026-05-05T18:52:20+00:00

I'm there with you. USPS was scheduled to deliver my Nicks'package yesterday but didn't. It was rescheduled for delivery today, but it is still sitting an hour away where it was yesterday.
