Vegetable tan boots are rare because of how much more expensive veg tan leather is but Nicks Handmade Boots worked with one of the best tanneries in the world, Wickett & Craig, to create a veg tan boot. So they sent me a pair to cut in half and put them to the test.

It’d be cool if we could do another comparison with veg tan and chrome after a year or 2 of wear, let’s see what wearing over time does to the testing results

The sound from the initial plunge of the blade into the vamp - just breaks my heart every time. But the sound from the initial plunge of the blade into the vamp of these Nicks - hurts my soul. Beautiful boots. And I love my Nicks Waxed Flesh Urban Loggers. So now the only remaining question before getting these: medium arch or moderate arch. Because they're hard to pass up with the discount code.

The Nicks Robert is a nice boot, I have a pair in natural chromexcel roughout. The arch is way more supportive than the arch on the Falcon, but it's a little extreme at first if you're not used to it.

@JimIBobIJones 3 года назад

The quality of the hide matters much more than the tanning process, the "best" tanning really depends on what kind of leather you are starting with and what you intend to do with it. So in many cases the best and most expensive leathers are chrome tanned. Full grain calfskin for example - which is what most of the highest end dress shoes are made of - is always chrome tanned (at least in the context of shoemaking).

@MeteCanKarahasan Год назад

Veg tan is 1.5x stronger when wet, 1.2x stronger when dry. It isn't even a contest - veg tan can conform to your feet. It is 'live'. Chrome tan is like faux leather.

Go for it. Make sure you go to a local authorized fitter to get them fit. (Unless you live in Washington and you can go to Nick's brick & mortar) if there isn't an authorized fitter near you, make sure you have someone else fit them for you (like your friend, wife, or girlfriend). Don't try to do it yourself because it'll throw the measurements off when you are bending over.

@garethbaus5471 4 года назад

In theory at least leather should form to your foot over time and provide butter support but foam will generally provide more padding but I at least would definitely be interested in seeing if it is possible to objectively test the two to see exactly how big of a difference there is between them.

@jeffmitchell72 3 года назад

Yes, I'm interested as well. I feel like I always hear 2 conflicting things. Leather is best cuz it firms to your foot perfect. But I slso hear shock absorbtion is important and a leather sole wouldn't seem to have that.
