Ive owned Whites boots (smokejumper model) for the past 13 years. I have had them rebuilt by Whites, Nicks, and now since Whites/Nicks have gone corporate buyout, I decided to try Franks. I am sold on Franks and will be bringing my next rebuild to Frank without a doubt. Watch to find out more and why I made the move.

Looks like a nice pair of boots they did a good job I’ve never had fire boots but I had military paratrooper boots and they were the best boots I’ve ever had I bought them used and they lasted 6-7 years of abuse on the farm and excavator service I really loved them for the for the puncture resistant soles I could stand on a nail and it wouldn’t go through I miss them lol good to see you buddy hope you have a great day thanks for sharing

I love my franks. frank himself actually fitted them to me so they fit very well. however I ordered them as rough out and they came in smooth. small issue and not a function issue at that but still I think you'll like them.

Appreciate real reviews from real users. I see a lot of real not influencer people are saying that Franks are more well built and overall more happy with their franks than nicks. Glad I dodged a bullet and cancelled my order at Nicks. There has been several issues with their quality control lately too, seems like they are having a hard time keeping up with their popularity.

I’m about to order my 2nd pair franks, worth every penny.

If you ever make the visit to Frank’s, make sure you lock your doors because that neighborhood is fairly sketchy lol.

I’ve had a very good experience with franks boots and their customer service.

@EasyMoneyCrew 6 месяцев назад

how long do they normally take to ship?

@bobsmith-ji2uh 6 месяцев назад

@@EasyMoneyCrew I did the custom fit so it took about 5-6 months. I’m sure it’s a lot shorter wait if you’re buying a normal size.

JK boots are a very good company and they treat you very good as well. Also, their customer service is phenomenal. And there boots are very good quality and JK stands behind there product 150%. When I was looking at getting my first pair of handmade custom boots, I looked at a bunch of different companies on the western. And I made the drive to Spokane Washington I was gonna look at a couple of the different boot companies that were there. But when I got to JK boots their customer service was phenomenal and they literally treated me like I was the president and took care of me very well. Measure custom fit boots along with custom uppers. And with everything I read and heard online along with a couple of people that I know that have JK boots I went with them, and I was not disappointed.

I’ve got Franks Front Ranges. By far my favorite pair of boots. I like them so much I ordered some custom boots in brown domain leather for casual use.

little history Franks brother is the original owner of Nicks Boots Frank worked for his brother many years and there been i think 2 or 3 different owners of Nicks boots (not own by ABC co that is owner of Whites ,Danners, ect )

@johnvelas70 Месяц назад

I'm torn between White's and Franks for corks. My 2nd pair from a different company came back rebuilt wrong for the 2nd time. I like your idea about a toe cap, I'll have to ask if that's possible with corks.

@frankgonzalez3822 Год назад

Been trying to decide between Frank's and JK boots

@cloveroak5492 Год назад

JK has a tendency to not take responsibility when a boot doesn't fit right, but assuming they get fit right they seem to make a good boot. Frank's is the way to go all the way around.

Are these Nfpa certified and also would a cheaper boot like adtec fire boots for Wildland would they be good too

@roughcutranch6764 3 месяца назад

I have personally seen some of the Adtec and Hiax boots start to de-laminate the glue on soles. IF you order "Wildland Fire" boots from Franks, Nicks, JK, Whites. They are supposed to build them to NFPA 1977 standards which include the glued, screwed and stitched Vibram "Fire" sole. Stitching withe Nomex thread, and be a minimum of 10" from the floor to the top of the boot. I ordered a set of whites in 2017 and asked for 12" uppers, and an extra toe cap. Guy said they could build them as "Custom" for an extra $. I said they have to be Fire. He said that they didnt have my spec as fire boots. I asked what the deal was, as I was asking for the same boot as their smoke jumper except taller, and with an extra toe cap. he said that Whites didnt have that version submitted to NFPA for approval thus he wasnt going to put the NFPA tag in it, even though it was built the same way. I said Goodbye to Whites and started Using Nicks and Franks. I have seen everything on the fireline (2006 to present) from walmart boots to actual top of the line wildland fire boots. Really depends on the scene inspectors.

Nick’s is owned by a hedge fund now. That’s why I am in JK’s now.

JK should stay family owned at least another 20 years. Then they’ll prolly sell out as well unless the kids can teach their kids the business

@PNWBootMan 7 месяцев назад

Nick’s Boots is still family owned and is owned by Steve and shyler mou. The name Nick is short for Nikolai that was a Russian man that worked for Whites Boots many many years ago or years until he started nicks Boots in 1964

@adamsmiths3016 6 месяцев назад

But they aren't custom anymore. I used to buy nicks boots but one day when I asked for the same boot I had bought 3 times before they told me no because their business model had changed. So my money goes elsewhere.
