    Handcrafted with a moderate arch, easy break-in leather and a black Sierra Sole Nicks Ridgeline Hiking Boot is the perfect boot for any hiking trail or job site! The 360 degree stitching provides water resistance while the padded collar provides comfort and stability.
    While most boots are meant to be thrown away after a few months, Nicks are built to last. When your boots start to need some servicing, you can send them in to have them resoled or completely rebuilt! Nicks Handmade Boots are serviceable and last years longer than a mass-produced boot. Since 1964, Nicks has been making the highest quality boots on the market, right here in Spokane Washington. If you're tired of your old work boots wearing out, upgrade to Nicks and enjoy the most comfortable boots on the market.

    I've had a pair of Builder Pros for going on 3 years. I actually sent Nick's an e-mail shortly after getting them asking for a hiking boot with the Vibram Sierra sole... I've got a pair of White's Outdoorsman boots with those soles and they are great for casual woods walking in damp conditions (gore tex bootie inside) but lack an arch and are too tall at 10" for hiking. When Nick's announced the Ridgeline I ordered a pair without hesitation. In both cases I had Nick's them made to fit my feet. Absolutely no regrets... both boots get more comfortable with use and the Sierra outsoles are fantastic on the trails whether it's a rock climb, climbing over roots, or navigating muddy sections. Great boots!

    I have a few questions. Why don't you stitch the outsole of this boot and the tactical boot to the midsole and the leather like what you did on the work boots? Wouldn't it be more secure that way, the glue would never wear out and the outsole wouldn't come off? And would that stitch reduce the flexibility of the shoe?

    How do the ridgeline compare to the Howard? They seem quite similar.

    • @TommyNitro
      @TommyNitro Před rokem +6

      The Howard is slightly taller (6"), and does not have the 360 stichdown with a rubber midsole like the hiker. The Howard has a leather midsole and the traditional partial stitchdown construction with a nailed heel. The 360 stitchdown construction and rubber midsole makes the hiker more water resistant. The hiker will also be more flexible than the Howard, though some like the solid support underfoot of the Howard.

    • @WolfMimirMori
      @WolfMimirMori Před rokem +5

      It's due to the material between the midsole and outsole. It's extremely soft for cushioning while hiking, and since it's so soft, you don't want to stitch through it.
      You see the same for their security boots that is very similar to this hiking one.

    Cool that they show the production.
    I doubt they are the worlds toughest hiking boots, plenty of stiff conpetition there especially by German and Italian bootmakers. Some of them use leathers that are around 4mm thick which would be 9-10 oz. Its almost disrespectful, but its just a marketing gimmick, but some humility would be nice.

Lace to toe is needed when doing a lot of up and down hill or side hill hiking to keep your feet firmly in place, that's why classic style hiking boots are made that way.
