Nicks MTO

Worn for less than a day

Overall, these have been served me well for their intended purpose aside from the last and my feet

Nothing much to add that hasn't been covered in the other sections. Just a big thanks to the Nicks team for their product and taking care of me and many others!

I have wide, lower volume feet, so my feet are over the stitches. It is too tight for me long-term. I will be considering rebuilding to a different width if possible

More about this item

The leather was great! It really took a beating and is still kicking. It really took a shine from just brushing it daily. Conditioned the entire boot once and a few touch ups after that so far.

Why I Own This

Custom

Workplace Needs

Style

I needed(/wanted) another, lighter weight, pair for work. I felt the predator orange would be a unique leather in my use case and I saw some other patinas that looked really good!

Compared to Other Lasts

I went with the same size nicks I had on the 55 last due to their recommendations. Didn't know my size before nicks, so I initially paid extra for a try on boot. Due to inexperience and my foot health improving during the wait for nicks, I had to go through a size exchange when got my first boots in.

Talked to the owner of Nicks boots through Reddit about ordering this new pair and making some special changes. It all went pretty smooth and Nicks took care of me very well.
