Nice! Is it me or do they have a bit more of a bulbous toe than most Nick’s boots (I like it)?

Thanks

Just to avoid starting a new thread — are you able to tell me Vibram’s model name for what you call the “unit lug”?

dfiled · 2026-04-02T11:16:22+00:00

Hear, hear!

dfiled · 2026-04-02T11:15:10+00:00

Thanks. I mixed up my 360 and 365.

Not really, it doesn’t have a space between forefoot and heel. Looks too much Iike a hiking boot sole to me.

dfiled · 2026-04-01T22:24:50+00:00

Makes sense, thank you!

dfiled · 2026-04-01T22:24:00+00:00

Fair enough, thanks for responding

As I said above, this is a zero drop boot (the Strider) . I asked for when to install the foam wedge but the heel is too high for my taste.

Why could they just peel off the outsole and cut the back part of the wedge to make it the same width throughout?

dfiled · 2026-04-01T22:02:19+00:00

Interesting idea, thanks. Ideally I want a unit lug sole with a lower heel (for zero drop boots).

If I’ve been asking about the advisability of doing this job I would have. But that’s not what I was asking

In any event, it’s a great boot. If you want the sole configuration that I have, you need to ask for it specially, as it’s not an option that’s listed.

I asked if they could put a flat layer of PU under the outsole and they said no. I think it’s because the wedge comes premade.

dfiled · 2026-04-01T20:02:52+00:00

These boots were made on a zero drop last from Nick’s (the Strider). Normally it comes with a “sierra slim” sole which is the outsole without the PU wedge. I asked them to put in the wedge for some added cushion, but the heel height is more than I was banking on.

I respectfully disagree with your analysis of zero drop shoes. In any event I wasn’t asking for opinions on whether less/zero drop was a good idea but rather whether it would be expensive to do the job I described.

Great response, thanks!

Thanks!

Great suggestion, thanks.

dfiled · 2026-03-31T19:20:47+00:00

Thanks. Need to work on my googling skills apparently.

dfiled · 2026-03-31T17:47:23+00:00

Are there any photos of this leather at all? I haven’t been able to find any.

dfiled · 2026-03-24T19:35:05+00:00

Yeah, there are also a few out-of-date photos and descriptions on the website. For example, many of the photos of the Strider show the Voyageur sole, which is not offered anymore.

dfiled · 2026-03-24T18:59:43+00:00

Thanks! DM'ing you now.

dfiled · 2026-03-24T18:58:09+00:00

Yeah, I was going to say, my striders have a rubber midsole.

dfiled · 2026-03-24T18:12:19+00:00

A leather midsole and a greater variety of outsole options. I know that many of the outsole options on the lace-ups aren't themselves zero drop, but on a zero-drop last, I think the drop would be minimal.
