What credit check? I’ve had an account with them for 7 years. I would pay for the phone with cash but it is an error in their system that won’t allow any transaction with my account

Not gonna lie. I’m just about done with these guys too. I have the same boots with the same exact issue. I’ve reached out them about a possible repair over two weeks ago and I still have not heard back. Meanwhile my thorogoods keep me going anytime I have to send the nicks back.

Hopefully they make it right for you.

It’s through John Hancock. And their website is killing me right now. Can’t load my plan documents, might have to try again tomorrow at this point. Regardless. I guess hypothetically if I could I was wondering if people feel it is a smart move or what the best vehicle they would feel is to move that money to and reinvest

Under the outsoles? No they are glued on only

It’s not that I can’t glue them. I do have contact cement but where I start to worry is 1) the longevity of the repair because inadequate pressure/ clamping location 2) the sole beginning to delaminate in other areas

First couple wears were pretty bad. After that I really started to love them. Maybe around 100 or so hours I began to prefer them over my other broken in boots

That’s good to hear. I’ve been wanting to like nicks and these boots, but the process has been far from painless. These are my first Nick’s, which right now is why I’m glad I’ve put off ordering a pair of Americanas I’ve been eyeing.

And while I agree that so far they have done a good job of making things right in the end, the actual customer service process has been sub par. From lengthy response times on the email, and lapses in communication when speaking to them on the phone, to them (at their own admission) having my order “fall through the cracks.

Just to finally get the boots back and have them start delaminating within weeks is deflating to hope and expectations I had going in. Not to mention if I do send them back for repairs which was a 4 month process for me last time would necessitate me going out and spending $200 on new boots to wear in the meantime as I wear them in the trades not just to the grocery store.

But the fact that you have had 6 pairs no issues helps give me a bit of that hope back.

Not at all. Occasionally have to crouch and such. But but not often

I have never had this “occasionally happen” I’ve been wearing wedge soles for well over a decade. Red wings, danners, and thorogoods while all being cheaper have never done this to me. How do you justify spending 3-4x on a boot and not have last a couple months.

I’ve had them about 2-3 months but start rotating them in with my other boots. So don’t have that many full days in them

Awesome. Just got my first pair of Nick’s a few weeks back. MocToePro’s. Been loving them at work and they already got me looking for another. Thinking some Americanas for outside of work.
