I got a pair of these in the exact configuration a few months ago and they're the most comfortable piece of footwear I've ever put on. I'm a mechanic and while a wedge sole may be more ideal for the hangar floor, the arch support you get with these makes even standing on flat surfaces more comfortable than anything else I've experienced for 12 hours at a time. For anyone thinking of getting a pair, I followed Nicks sizing guide and the fit was perfect. Surprisingly snug around the middle of the foot, but I've really come to appreciate that support and my toes have the perfect amount of room. The 1964 leather breaks in real nice and has only looked better and better over time. I'm in no hurry to take them off even after a long shift.

These types of boots that are built like this would be good for oil rig work. Just preferably without laces (Wellington /pullon) and a shorter heel. No matter what boot we buy, they get tore up fairly quickly if you are working.. 🤧. We like the wider toe box, that should be an industry standard.

I live in WA and I spoke with Nick a couple years ago about my frustration looking for a horse riding boot that provided straight space along the big toes. He said he didn't know why no one was making them that way, that all they'd need to do is shift the center of the boot toe toward the inside. Custom wasn't an option at the time because it was at the height of covid and he needed to be able to do an in-person measuring. Perhaps I should call him again! That last you were holding looks great. I wonder if you could turn Jim Green onto it as inspiration for an upgrade of the BF African Ranger last?

I bet someone could make custom shoes today for a “not stupid” price. Laser scan your feet and mold a plastic last. Chances are it’ll be close enough to regular sizes that you could still use standard patterns to cut the material. Levi’s did that for a while. It was like 30 or 40 bucks more than regular. Shoes would be more that than extra, for sure. Might be worth it, though.

I have extra wide feet. I play field sports and wear cleats. The conventional wisdom is that cleats should fit really snugly. But when New Balance started making 4E cleats, I tried them while playing Ultimate and it was a sea change for me. All of the blisters, foot, ankle and knee pain I normally associated with cleats went away, and my running an cutting measurably improved. So at least for me, the conventional wisdom is completely wrong.

So you are literally standing on nails? How can the leather conform to your foot when there are nails all the way to the surface of the insole?
@Rb889
@Rb889 Месяц назад
The nails don't go all the way through in the center where your foot is, (And where the leather slowly conforms to your foot) they're usually around the edges of the boot and in the heel stack. There's a small leather slip sole glued inside that covers the heel and arch, and also covers the nails in those areas. But even when you can see them, you can't feel them, not even after five years of wear.
@AveryH7
@AveryH7 Месяц назад
He explains it quickly in the video, but the nails get clinched, or bent away from your foot, as they're hammered in. The nails used through the boot apart from the heel are thin and maleable enough that they will also bend as the leather is compressed. The thickest nails are in the heel where the most leather is. The only reason a nail there would poke out is if someone royally fucked up which happens unfortunately. Nailed in soles will have an additional layer of leather glued in along the heel or along the entirety of the foot bed depending on the maker. Heritage boots were originally full nail down construction due to the leather thickness but as sowing machines became more advanced sowing them became more popular. With as good as glues are these days the nails anywhere besides the heels are pretty pointless when used with stitches. I like the redundancy of tools to keep the sole together so I don't really mind how little of a difference in durability they actually make. The screws are also pretty pointless but they look cool.

4:02 did I miss some of the “really good reasons” for a narrower last or is it just about the aesthetics? There’s a very brief mention 9:35 of the need for a “more anatomical last” as the boots became more widely used, but I thought the Munson last was the more anatomical boot…I’m confused by the explanation.

I was wondering the same thing. Did I miss something? Have worn Nick’s Hotshots & Alaska Tundra (64 last) in the past.

Fascinating history! If you google the book title and Munson, it is available as a free pdf download from the Library of Congress.

Too late for me, I'm retired, but I'd like to know how long they last when exposed to auto trans fluid; most boots rot away after 9 months to a year. And how they fare in a welding shop; with abrasive grinding dust, cutting torches sending sparks and slag all over and sparks from welders. And do they come with steel toes? I know what worked best for me, and they were a lot cheaper than 250$.

I own 30 pairs of boots Vibergs Redwings JK's Oakstreet Grant Stones Role Clubs Parkhurst and Nicks. The BuilderPro is my most comfortable toughest boot I own hands down. When I am heading out for hard jobs or long overland jeep trips where I'll be facing unknown conditions it's the Builder Pros I grab without hesitation. I had Jk's in Bison that i sold off because I couldn't keep looking down at that fat waited bulbous toe'd boot and the comfort just didn't even compare. The Vibergs and Role clubs are great boots but arent as hardy and really just my going out boots. The rewings rarely get worn the others are just in line...if you want the best boots built from a company using only the best boot leather on the market it's the BP. Nicks uses only the best cuts verses Jk that will use less cuts to squeeze more boots out of one hide. I wouldn't want to get that lesser cut leather would you?

I contacted Red Wing years ago and they made slight modifications to the Munson last and have used it since the 1920s in their workwear. What it is used for in 2024 I couldn't say.

when i bought my boots for wildland fire i went with JKs. I have a slightly wide foot and walked out the door with a 7ee, not the 9 i usually wear or the 10 they recommended. I can’t figure out why people buy such narrow boots and then upsize to fit the ball of their foot. I guess this is why.

For what you get, $589 isn't very expensive. Nike sells some of their sports shoes for 250-300

I have a pair of these, they're the best boots I've ever owned, but, I almost never wear them, they are too hard, heavy, and take too long to put on. Make sure you get some GOOD soft insoles if you buy them.

Yes the industrial revolution led to mass produced boots which were not hand lasted. It also made footware affordable to orders of magnitude more people, and even when America was ramping up for WWI and WWII, there were recruits who had never worn shoes on a regular basis, because they were still so expensive that they were unaffordable.
