    Nicks Handmade Boots Official Affiliate Thread

    In the past few years you have really gotten your name out there with your own youtube channel and collaborations with rose anvil and carl murawski. You have been kicking some serious butt. When did you and your dad take over/buy Nick's? Some people in 2014 said that Nick's wasnt what they use...

    Nicks Handmade Boots Official Affiliate Thread

    I really liked that video! I sent a pair of USA made Chippewa's there for a resole. I live in northeast Connecticut and there isn't any cobblers that I know of up here. Does nicks rebuild any of the other PNW boots?

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    Im not quite sure how those got over looked. But they should be good until I need a rebuild. Still waterproof and walk everyday to work in them.

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    Normally whites have 9 screws in the sole. 3 on each side and 3 in the toe. For some reason mine only had the 3 on each side. So I added 5 to the toe. I got these resoled in 2019 and it sucked when I peeled the toe back.

    Has anyone ever peeled a honey vibram sole from the slip sole? I caught my boot on some concrete stairs and it pulled until the screws in the bottom of the sole stopped it. So I put some screws in the toe so it wouldnt flap

    I thought they were honey vibram but the picture made the soles look whitish. Its too bad those have to go to work in a mechanics shop. And the extra cushion sure is nice for concrete. Sneakers kill my knees on concrete all day.

    I'm glad it has worked for you. My grandfather was a marine and in vietnam. He contracted some sort of foot fungus while he was over there and his foot is all discolored and dead. Probably not the boots fault, but I certainly wouldn't want his boots if he sold them on ebay. Thats just my...

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    I have always been skeptical about buying used shoes/boots. The deals are enticing, but I have heard of horror stories of people getting foot fungus from second hand shoes.

    Watch Carl Murawski's interview with Thursday. Not very nice people in my opinion. Turned me off from that company for sure.

    Im a 8.5C and have a small ankle. I think they put a 7.5 shaft on my boot so the lacing was a little farther apart. Whatever they did worked :)

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    My Whites do that as they go up the shaft as well. I noticed the s fold seems to even the uppers out on my pair

    Thank you! Can you reshare those photos of the smokejumpers? This was my first pair of custom made foot wear. The pairs of whites I have were my fathers

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    I understand, but i dont believe there is a Frank's boots thread and I said in post # 15,924 that I was going to purchase some other boots. So I just followed up with some pictures.

    They are breaking in nicely! Wore them for 4 hours on Wednesday, and then 12 hours yesturday. They are breaking in better than what I was expecting. Normally with whites it takes me a week before I can wear them all day.
