Nicks Robert

Impressed with Dublin leather

Overall it’s a great boot for a heritage workwear style. Not refined at all and a bit overbuilt for me in hindsight. I’d like a thinner sole, maybe a 5” or 4.5” shaft and just a lighter boot altogether. Not a huge fan of the arch support. Not painful but also just not necessary for me.

Why I own this

Custom

I wanted a natural veg tan boot on leather sole with a wide toe box.

How I sized

Brannock Measurements

Online Guide

Circumferential Measurements

I used a brannock and Nicks size chart measuring the circumference of the ball of the foot to determine width. I misread the HTB length initially so ordered a half size too short.

Their online ordering is simple enough. Long lead times but not egregious. I think I ordered mine end of April and got them in August/September
