I'm going to buy custom nicks boots soon but I want them in burgundy veg tan 6 inch with a zipper station boots with nmt I've got my exact foot size from a machine at redwings is this possible?
@@Jokemeister1 I can see why you would say that when they are new. They certainly don't look that way after they've been used hard for a while, which is what they're made for.
@@Jokemeister1 They are designed that way for very functional reasons, it puts the heal slightly forward to aid in the arch support and also makes for a more natural gait when you are walking. The height of the heel is for the arch support as well, but also to aid in really digging in your heels on rough uneven terrain.
for future builds, can you list all the details about it like leather choice, toe, arch, sole stain color, etc. i always find myself wondering what the leather choice is in these.
Guy on the sander! Green hoodie! Take the hoodie strings off ! I had my strings caught in belt sander in high school almost pulled my face to the belt . Be careful.
I saw this happen twice in a professional setting. Bench grinder just snapped the string for one guy. The guy on the belt sander got his face slammed into the belt and had a nasty abrasion from his forehead to his chin.
Love my Nicks boots! I have Urban Logger honey soles and Urban Drifters black lugs. They take a lot of breaking In because they are built like tanks but once broke in they are amazing! My Truman’s are awesome but nicks have to be the toughest built boot I’ve ever seen. Worth every penny! Just a tip, trace your feet and get your exact size from Nicks you’ll be glad you did.
LOVE these videos!! Which leather is this boot? Video suggestion - put in the description what leather you are using and maybe some other details about the specific boot being made
Can someone please make some videos of the Urban Drifter....there are only 2 videos on CZcams about this boot....I just ordered it and excited but I can't watch any kool videos of the boot being made it reviews etc ....
Love these videos. I would love to see a video talking about what makes each bit different from the others. In many way, at least for a lay person they all seem really similar. If grant could explain what the differences are that could be super helpful for someone making a purchase decision
I believe we have a few videos that sort of explain the difference between our boot models. TLDR of the videos is that all of our boots are essentially the same boot with some slight configuration changes. Ex. The Overlander = 8" BuilderPro etc. etc. Hope this helps Kevin)) Cheers!
I watched several boot making videos and I dont get it, @ 6:22 theres a foot thing that your nailing into, how do you get that out after all the nailing? I never see that foot thing get removed.........
We have an awesome online fitting chart and a video that walks you through it available so you can get your perfect Nicks size without having to leave your house!
No need to. Yes the threads get chewed and cut up, but the glue, screws, and the friction of the thread still inside that thick sole work together at keeping thew sole attached.
@@Totemparadox Well they can use rivets, staples, c-clamps and Bondo too, but if they're going to do it...at least do it right. Throwing the bathroom sink at it isn't a valid excuse not to do it right, especially when you're charging $500+ a pair.
@@Skulllywag Or they can not do it. If you'd done a minute of research you'd found out that not all their outsoles are stitched. Some are just glued or glued and screwed. You don't seem to understand that the thread snapping has no negative effect on the integrity and it would snap with enough use even if the sole was trenched. This is the classic way of doing it with that machine and if you don't like, buy boots from someone else. Some people...
It's neither smart nor dumb, it just is. Sure the thread will snap, but not all of it AND there's still glue and screws holding the sole on. Also the thread isn't pulled out that easily. That rubber is tough.
@@Totemparadox Another way of looking at it is that other boots don't even sew the outsole, just glue. And they work just fine. So in this case, like you said, even IF the thread completely fails, there's still glue and screws holding it. So it's still better than other boots such as Timbs or Doc Marts.
Hahaha, I know the feeling man. I actually ended up ordering one of their "in stock" boots, because they happen to have a pair of Urban Loggers my size. Even though the leather isn't what I would've ordered, it's a decent trade off. I don't need to wait for months.
One part caught my eye. During the McKay stitching segment there was no stitching shown before the cement was applied. Was the stitching left out or was the lack of stitching noticed after the cement was applied, fixed and then the rubber midsole attached?
I was thinking the same. All the eye and ear PPE but no dust protection? Maybe leather and rubber put out less small dangerous dust than sanding wood does? Maybe the dust extraction on the industrial sanders is much heavier duty than most home and CZcamsr shops?
@@thejericho maybe. I’ve been getting more PPE for things like sanding, yard work, and painting over the last couple years. I don’t see anything healthy about breathing in fumes, dust, or other crap no matter how much our fathers and grandfathers saw it as normal. I have enough health problems without adding to them by stubbornness.
With all the leather work and craftsmanship in this video, couldn't we have stitched a fine NICKS apron for the Carhardt guy? We could make em from box loads of scraps. Like a quilt. Belt leather shoulder straps. Then... they'll want backpacks, duffle bags, wallets... My Urban Loggers will be here pretty soon. Can't wait. Thanks for a great product and experience!
Depends what you mean? If you're out walking in the woods/ marshy land like loggers are, it's kind of essential. If you're on a factory floor or doing construction, probanly not the right sole.
These are the the style I have, my only issue with mine is the outside left foot where all the layers of leather come together above the heel, it's not breaking in there too well and hurts my foot. It's taking a while to wear for work, otherwise I'm looking forward to the day I can.
It's a shame that you have to.... but if you'll go to a shoe store (or most drug stores), they sell "Mole Skin" patches that you can stick to any seams or part of the shoe that rubs. Basically just corduroy adhesive patches...but they work magic on spots that rub in shoes.
@@Skulllywag I did take it to my local boot maker to see if he can stretch that area for me and then go from there, but true enough, you spend over $500 for boots and one of them is hurting your foot is a bad deal but, that's what they say is part of them being hand made, not perfect.
We have a few options with a wedge sole, but overall the raised heel and the arch support are extremely comfortable for long workdays, especially for those working in forests such as loggers or wildland firefighters!

Any woman that wears a shirt that says “Happy Vibes Only” is most likely to kill you in your sleep…🤷🏻♂️ Anyway, the main reason I don’t like logging boots is the weird curved heel. I get the purpose behind them but always found them odd looking. Also, is it not possible to sew through around the entire boot? I’m assuming it would stretch the leather weird or something?
We offer different heel shapes and sizes on our boots so you can for sure find something you like the look of. As for the Sole stitching, there is usually no need to do a full stitch all around, and in addition we do not flare the feel on most of our boots, so realistically the stitching around that area would only attach the sole to the midsole. Although, we got something interesting on the way, that is stitched all around, so be on the lookout 👀👀👀
Which part of the process do you think is the most difficult? 🤔
I think stitching the uppers together or sanding the shoe to shape (one wrong move could wreck it) but non of it is easy. Love my UL's BTW
Nailing the leather on the last/sole? You guys and gals make it all look easy
Definitely the lasting process! Great video!
Sanding and applying the edge dressing!?
I'm going to buy custom nicks boots soon but I want them in burgundy veg tan 6 inch with a zipper station boots with nmt I've got my exact foot size from a machine at redwings is this possible?
These time-lapse construction process videos are always so interesting to watch. Keep up the great work!
Glad you like them!
=Thank you so much for watching! czcams.com/video/37GCDIC47i4/video.html
I love the way the heels are slightly flared on Nick's. It's a nice touch I don't see on other similar boots from Wesco, White's, etc.
Thought they were a pair of ladies boots.

Absolutely wonderful! I see why they cost so much. They have so much hard work put into them!
True. But Wescos are over 500 bucks a pair. Plus, I think that if properly maintained, Nick's boots will wear well for a long time.
So much of the process is done by hand. What a beautiful piece art
for future builds, can you list all the details about it like leather choice, toe, arch, sole stain color, etc. i always find myself wondering what the leather choice is in these.
The level of craftsmanship is outta this world. Simply beautiful....
Enjoyed the video, saw something you don't see on shoes coming out of China. It's called pride and craftsmanship.
I just ordered mine today!!!! I ordered them 8 in . Man I can’t wait until I get them

After watching the video, I think all your people have a difficult part to making a high quality boot……very impressive. Thank you
Love, love your videos. Haven’t decided which boots to order.
Can't wait to get my pair of Urban Loggers!

Amazing skill & technology
BAHTI AÇIK OLSUN...
ELLERİNİZE SAĞLIK...
I watch these videos every weekend and I still find them fascinating. Good stuff.
People love these tough boots.
Can you get an Urban Logger with a padded collar, like the Howard?
Wieviel kostet solch ein Paar gute Schuhe?
Mein Vater war Schuhmacher... Ihr macht sehr gute Arbeit 👍
Oh I can't wait for mine to get here. Can't rush perfection.
Amazing!!
These are are my dream boots built to work but casual enough to ware every ware for me!
Это произведение искусства!!! Вот бы себе такие😢
У меня такие есть, очень необычные, надо сказать
great work
Very good job
Wow. Beautiful
📽 🙂 👍 Thank You !
Hello! What is the cost of such boots? Can you order such boots online? What is the form of payment?
Impecable!!! ✨

I noticed these are size 13, same size i wear lol its a sign to switch from whites to nicks
do you do any boots with a steel or composite toe. I havnt seen any even on the custom builds
This might be a wierd question but next year I'm going on a boar hunt and I would like some boots made from the boar leather can you guys do that?
Maybe a weird question, but an important one. Hope they or some other quality shop says yes.
Best in town! Nicks can't be beat
Thank you!
Perfection
What glue is used in this process?
What are they hitting with the rebar?
Such a great looking boot.
I watched several boot making videos and I dont get it, @ 6:22 theres a foot thing that your nailing into, how do you get that out after all the nailing? I never see that foot thing get removed.........
It's a last and you simply pull the boot off like you would from a real leg.

Urban Loggers. My favorite! I have a pair in the No. 8. Gorgeous!😎❤️
Good choice!
I was wondering...for the price point, why aren't the soles trenched before stitching? That thread is no match for concrete when exposed.
No need to. Yes the threads get chewed and cut up, but the glue, screws, and the friction of the thread still inside that thick sole work together at keeping thew sole attached.

Tough boot, but is it really smart to place the seams over the profile of the soles?

What’s the leather type?
I love it
Can I get these boots with a composite safety toe?
Custom order, and you can do just about anything.
Thanks Tom
I can't wait to get mine.
Tom Cruise would be 6' 4" in a pair of these! That heel.
Maybe 5’8” he’s very tiny he wears boots with lifts just to get to 5’9”
Great
Are those my boots I ordered 3 months ago?
…….nope 🤨

Sold as scraps or made into cup sleeves, keychains, catch all's.

I know they can't be Danner boots , that is the junkiest boot made , none are the same size , and all their gortex boots leak .
Gortex is highly water resistant but not 100 percent water proof 🙄
