@@MrStreetninja007seriously, I did a lot of leather, knot tying, and woodworking as a kid. Now I'm on some RU-vid algorithm where I'm seeing nothing but boots, tools being tested by either a guy that is way too excited about everything, or a guy who is obviously an engineer. Aside from that it's politics, and RU-vid trying to stuff a needle in my arm propaganda. So yeah, I've found a strange love for leather in general again, and I've always liked boots. Now I'm like.... Ya know... I wanna make some shoes...

Same here. 1 old dude. I think I'll try and break the ice by offering to pay, and do the labor on some of my own boots I'm not too worried about not getting perfect on my first few times, and keep an eye out for deals at the thrift store, to try and build up enough experience he'll want to actually hire me before he's ready to retire if he does. Sounds like a long shot, but it's kinda A dying trade unfortunately, and a greenhorn can't just start working on someone else's customer's shoes out the gate, then there's the whole part of learning the custom hand tools, and where to get them. I ain't never seen any hammer end knipex pliers 🤣.

@johnebert2619 2 года назад

Finally received my Builder Pros this week. Day 1, felt absolutely terrible. Wore them off and on through my work shift, 20 minutes to an hour at a time. Day 2, felt uncomfortable. Managed 30 - two hours at a time. Day 3 - feels ok. Still uncomfortable, but not bad enough to need to remove them. Currently 12 - 14 hours into the 100 hour break-in process. If they keep improving at this pace, they'll never leave my feet once they're broken in properly.

@ckmoore101 2 года назад

For mine, I am approaching 200 hours. Not even close to be broken in. I'm not sure how much longer I am willing to endure the stiffness of them. They are unbelievably rigid.

@swordfish1120 2 года назад

Have you ever had an issue with boots squeaking when walking after a resole? I have a pair of your competitors logger boots and after a resole from another boot maker the Vibram 100 sole squeaked constantly. I left them sitting for about year and after wearing them for six months they still squeaked🤔. I noticed some air gaps in the sole when I pushed down on the center and toe tread. With 75% of the tread left I ended up cutting the center tread of the sole, peeled it back, removed the screws and applied some contact cement on all pieces. It solved the problem, but I've never heard of this issue before.

@stevenroche9874 Год назад

You ought to include some Nicks LP and Leather Oil with the resole. This man appears to have never used any on his boots !

@bobsmith-ji2uh 3 года назад

Anybody know how much of a difference it makes between the regular lug sole and the honey lug? Is it significantly softer?

@MrSfinn9mm 2 года назад

I just sent my builder pros in to get resoled is everything he’s doing on the video included in the nicks resoles looks like he replaced sock liner and heel stack in the video curious if that’s the service I’m gonna get 🙏🇺🇸

Can a high arch boot be converted to a normal arch after break in?

@mikeisgettinupset 3 года назад

One thing i would recommend is strapping a piece of leather to the front part of that 5 In One for some extra protection of the boot. I noticed that Trenton and Heath have theirs set up like that and it makes so much sense.

@steveeab2364 3 года назад

I've got plenty of life left on the soles of my Nicks boots. I'll definitely be sending em back in when it's time for a resole.

@bobhabsolute4995 3 года назад

Now with a new sole, but this leather needs love.

@Loganedward29 3 года назад

That leather is actually in great shape. Those boots are at least 1 year old for soles to be gone if not more. The leather looks warn but not dry at all. I have the same boots and at 6 months his look like mine. I have taken great care of mine.

@bobhabsolute4995 3 года назад

@@Loganedward29 The shaft looks good , but near the first eyelet, just where the quarter ends, there’s a big split, just under the stitching. I have three pairs of Nicks but I wear them only at the office and on small hikes. The oldest pair looks like brand new after more than 3 years. Dust and cement from construction sites are the worst. I thing a simple brushing at the end of each day would probably double the life of your boots, if you’re a construction worker.

@binglenator 3 года назад

Why was an additional plastic/synthetic midsole installed prior to the vibrum sole when one was not removed from the original boot?

@nicksboots 3 года назад

It was removed together with the Vibram sole. It's easier and faster to remove it that way.
