For us? Not really, if it’s the same last. The only difference would be if you get some of the certified boots which would give you fire-resistant thread and soles, but nothing in terms of long-term durability in terms of wear. If you went with the 67 there is a little bit more leather in the arch as it’s a bit higher than the 55. Let me see what I can pull up re: the chocolate.Nice color and leather.
Is there another difference between a work boot and a dress casual in sole construction, like additional mid sole layer? Since wearing a 55 last boot is so nice I want a high arch for rougher stuff. And since I need a v100 sole, I have to leave the casual heritage range.
Shuyler, do you have a pic of a chocolate boot like builder pro with vibram honey?
Yep great that's how I understood it. Well so there is not much that speaks against the work boot route then. If you can't find a honey sole pic with chocolate no worries, found a couple of walnut that's pretty close.some of the certified boots which would give you fire-resistant thread
If it was me, I would get a v100 8" Ranger if you wanted work leather (7/8 oz) or an Urban Logger if you wanted one of the heritage leathers like predator, chrome XL, etc.Yep great that's how I understood it.

..and you would be right. A ranger with lug sole and toe 4/high arch would work, but it's not an option so I need to bug you in dm sooner or later.If it was me, I would get a v100 8" Ranger if you wanted work leather (7/8 oz)
Your opinion is very interesting. However, please explain what you mean?Nice!
A couple questions, can these be ordered without the logo on the side? I have never had a pair of Nick's before, should I order something off the shelf and return to verify sizing befors taking up a spot with a veg tanned order? Any chance of a natural veg tanned?
Pretty much. It fits like the 55 with a narrower toe box.@Nicks Boots Shuyler How does the 5332 last compare to the 55 last? Is the #2 toe (vs #3 on the 55) the only difference? I was looking at the Packer and was wondering.
Ok, I’m dumb, the Ranger with a v100 is essentially a Builder Pro, so if you want the lug, I would just get that. I get ahead of myself sometimes...and you would be right. A ranger with lug sole and toe 4/high arch would work, but it's not an option so I need to bug you in dm sooner or later.
No worries made the same mistake coming from a urban logger. The builder pro high arch even has the option for the honey sole without going full mto. The 10 inch isn't that big of a deal for me I can get used to that for sureRanger with a v100 is essentially a Builder Pro
You can get it with 8” if you prefer, too.No worries made the same mistake coming from a urban logger. The builder pro high arch even has the option for the honey sole without going full mto. The 10 inch isn't that big of a deal for me I can get used to that for sure
https://nicksboots.com/nicks-heavy-duty-leather-preservative/I got a sample of some conditioner with my Manito shoes. I haven't needed it on my shoes yet but I used it to condition a leather coaster I have and I got nice results. Where can I buy a full size thing of this stuff? The little tub says Nicks on it with no other branding.
