Excellent trip through the work floor of Nicks Boots. I live only a few hours south from them and have been there a few times for my boots and rebuilds. I’ve also been to the three other handmade boot makers in that city as well, but Nicks have been my choice for 23 years and I’m barely in my 40’s. Keep it up Buckin!

Great video Buckin, your energy radiates and it shows. The crew at Nicks are true craftsman, they make their job look easy but they are true craftsman and it shows in the quality in a well built boot. I definitely will be looking to get a pair of Nicks soon. Nothing beats a handmade boot that is crafted by a craftsman who puts his/her passion into their work. Awesome that you spent time with them Buckin, it is who you are as a person, as a human being. I am trying hard to do the same and it truly makes a huge difference. Take a frown to a smile and it changes the whole day. 👍🏻👍🏻

So glad you're enjoying your Nick's, I got the 1964 black overlanders delivered a few weeks back and I'm breaking em in, they were well worth the wait. Now I'm waiting for my waxed flesh urban loggers. Toughest boots I've ever seen and well worth if you can manage the break in. Lots of love from Melbourne Australia.
