And now for something a little different...






Those are fantastic! Can you tell us about the specs?
Is that brown waxed flesh? I was looking at the custom options both in the Nicks website as well as through Baker's and didn't see that leather, so I'm assuming it's the "chocolate smooth"?

Hi there, they are indeed brown waxed flesh - specs below for you and @FrankCowperwood

- 6" Bowhunter (64B)
- Lace to toe
- Brown waxed flesh
- Close trim
- Vibram 2060

Can't wait to see how these feel after 6 months!

Thanks qubit! I assume the order was placed not online, but by phone or email? I can't find the option for waxed flesh anywhere.

These were ordered via Bakers - always worth calling or emailing them with your desired build as the options on theirs or Nicks' site is not the full story :)

Qubit, how long was your wait?

I have a pair of Brown Waxed flesh on order through Bakers. Looking forward to them.

This is the time of year to order. I just sent an order in, last year at this time took around 12 weeks too.

Pretty much exactly 12 weeks from order placement to shipping confirmation. Well worth the wait I think!

K thanks.

Some nice pics showing up on Nick's Instragram, ahead of the new website apparently...

I am eagerly awaiting a pair of Nick's from Zuriick. I ordered the 6" William model in Burgundy. I will be interested to see how it compares to my White's, in terms of quality, size, style. I wish I were more patient. I can't imagine how tough it would be to wait 20 weeks for a pair.

Regards,
Jon
