I'm really interested in a pair of packers with the 1964 leather. Thanks for letting us know about this opportunity.

I wear 11-1/2E in the GSA contract 25V-2 boots, and also in White's 690 last packer boots. Can I expect your 5332 last to fit the same?

Can you do a double midsole on these, with the Vibram 430 outsole? I don't see this listed as an option on the MTO, but greatly prefer the double midsole. If so, is there a specific code to use for the discount on the MTO?

Thank you!
Regan

Hi Regan,

I would expect the sizing to be the same.

We do have the 1964 as an option on the normal packer MTO and I could refund you the 10% less the $20 charge for the double midsole, if that works. Otherwise I could get the packer 1964 up early next week (we don't have images yet which is why it's not up) and the discount code would work. The double midsole and 430 is no problem, just send me your order number when you place the order and I can make the change.

Thank you, Shuyler, I certainly appreciate the response.

I’m fine with the refund, since you’ll have to tweak the order to get the double midsole anyway. Do I email you the order notes directly somehow, or just reply to the order acknowledgment with the notes?

I hope to get the order sent in tomorrow. Thank you again!

Hey y’all, registered to SF just to follow this thread. Some great looking boot builds on here! It’s amazing to see the support and customer interaction from Shuyler on this thread. Kudos to you sir.

I just placed my order for some Urban Drifters today in the W&C burgundy veg tan....are they ready yet? Joking of course, I am aware of the lead time and down for the wait. I have plenty of other boots to wear, for now. These will be my first Nicks boot and am beyond excited.

I was hoping there would be some pictures of the burgundy leather for reference since the web site doesn’t show much but I guess the burgundy hasn’t been as popular as I would have thought they would have been. Looking forward to seeing them hit the forum.

I look forward to seeing pictures when they are complete. Pure speculation but I am guessing the lack of pictures reflects more on how recently it was introduced rather than popularity.

Have you worn Nick's boots before and, or, how did you know which size/width to order ?

Great to have you as a customer! Mike’s right, we definitely have orders for Burgundy, they just haven’t made it to production yet. Hoping to get some made over next few weeks.

That brown essex MTO is intriguing. I know it's a tough question to answer, but what's the leather like? I have boots in CXL and Dublin, but am unsure what to expect with Essex.

Also, what boot shape/style is the MTO going to use?

Thanks!

So, I’m not super familiar with Dublin personally but it is the base version of that leather that is unwaxed. It’s definitely “fancier” feeling than CXL which makes sense as it is treated the same way they do shell. It’s really rich, if that makes sense.

Sorry, and you can make pretty much any casual boot silhouette out of it in the options short of a packer. If that’s something you’re considering that can be arranged.

Dumb question, but the lack of wax affect water resistance or make it any less weather proof?
