      @Megatron1505:

      I really want a pair of Nicks oxfords, they're so pretty that I even want them with that useless Christy sole.

      Those are stunning! However unlike Megatron I don't condone the use of a christy sole. 😉

      I've read that Nick's will soon begin production using Domain Leathers from the Seidel tannery, the very same leathers that Wesco use.

        I don't condone it, but in this case I'll tolerate it.

        I'd buy these as my sneakers…..I feel too old for most actual sneakers.

        Made in England, clothed in Japan, fed in America and drunk in Belgium !

          With you on that Mega, these would be great sneakers for us 'mature' folks 😉

            Welp, I finally sent my measurements in and am awaiting some leather samples…Making sure I get this order right so that I can buy a few more pair in the future 😉

            While I wait, here's a pair of 3 year old Rangers in Walnut:

                          For a while I've been using some Red Wing 3140 as my do everything work and casual boot, but I'm looking to take a step [or 2 or 3] up and get some custom fitted White's or Nicks. Probably Nicks tbh because I like their stitching and the way the heel counter overlaps with the upper more. That's practically the only difference between the two boots as the grumpy old man at my local distributor of White's and Nicks kept stressing. Sadly he was a giant douche and probably had never ordered a boot for someone that wasn't a firefighter, so I won't be dealing with him again, but that's a story for another time.

                          I've been doing research and trying to decide on what configuration I want. I think I'm pretty set on natural CXL, but I wanted to make sure it would be ok for a work environment that takes a lot of scuffs. Seems like that would add a lot of character to that kind of leather, but I've heard somewhat different things about the toughness of the leather. Want to make sure it can take these kind of hits on a daily basis.

                          Another thing I'm mulling over is the sole type. Since my current boots are a wedge sole and I'm walking on smooth concrete all day, my first instinct was to go for something like this in a 6" version.

                          But after seeing awesome pics like this, I'm wondering if a traditional logger/cuban heel and a Vibram 700 could be just as comfortable for 8 hour days standing and walking on concrete.

                          I'm concerned the 2021 sole will wear down too fast with the foot miles I put in, but at the same time having that elevated rubber sole could be better for when I have to stand in up to 1/2" of water when cleaning in the cooler at work.

                          Lastly… a question about lasts. So, if I wanted the Nicks version of a bounty hunter, I'd just order a 6" boot with the #3 toe? Not really sure what the equivalent would be.

                          Thanks

                            I picked up a pair from Zuriick on Friday. 20% off, I couldn't resist.
                            Size 11 and I wear a 12 in sneakers (New Balance, Saucony), and 11.5 in Red Wing. I'm surprised they fit so well.

                              Those look great @tailoredfamcam !  I've been fighting some internal battles over picking up the Burgundy Williams for $340.  My only hesitation is the sporadic quality of the finishing and the occasional vamp wrinkling near the stitchdown.  How's the finishing on your pair?

                                I've been wearing the past two days and they're great. I don't have any issues at all.

                                I'm tempted on picking up the burgundy Williams, which I initially wanted, but I can't justify another boot purchase.

                                This soon. I'll be picking up a pair of Whites next year, I'm sure.

                                  Just an FYI, Zuriick is selling some of their Nicks boots for super low prices on their website.  I'm tempted to pick up another pair.  $255 for a pair of handmade boots?  Crazy.

                                          ^Very nice! How would you compare them to Whites or Wescos?

                                            I'm going to let the pictures do the talking; Wescos, Nicks (Zuriick) & Whites

                                            I would say my Nicks (Zuriick) are on a par with my Wescos and Whites in terms of comfort and build quality. Of the three boots pictured the Nicks (Zuriick) are probably the most affordable.
