  • So pumped to get my hands on (and feet in) a pair of the new Moc Toe boots from Nicks Handmade Boots! As a leathercrafter, I'm in constant amazement at the level of craftsmanship that I see in these U.S.A.-made boots. I have come to appreciate the people at Nicks Boots for their awesome customer service and total dedication to not only keeping this craft alive, but improving upon it. Be sure to check out the Nicks RUclips channel here: / nicksboots
    Thanks for watching!

    Really do want a pair of Nick's Moc Toes. I own a pair of White's Fulton Boots and of course multiple pairs of Red Wing Moc Toes. I've always loved a good Moc Toe boot though. I think that I go back and fourth between Moc Toe and Round Toe boots. That being said I think everyone should own at least one pair of Moc Toe boots.

    I wished I had those boots! I just bought a pair of Grant Stone Ottawa’s which are a nest boots that nicks do not sell yet. If they ever came out with a nst boot then I would get it without thinking twice. I love all boots that are either cap toes or certain moc toe’s, and all nst boots. I have been looking at those moc toed boots from Nick’s since I have seen them on sale from Nick’s. Those will be my grail boots.

  • @SP-nx8qx
    @SP-nx8qx 2 года назад +4

    I bit the bullet and went to a boot maker and had a custom pair made with this exact same chromexcel. And yeah it worked out more expensive than Nicks, and it took him months to finish (he actually made one boot from cheap leather just for a fitting and then he threw it away and made the final pair), but man, it's a completely different feeling to have boots made exactly for your feet, they feel about as comfortable as loafers. Don't know I can afford to do this very often, but it was definitely worth doing once.

    Hi Tanner! Went into Tandy today and they had the plans brochure for your roll top bag. I was like hey! I "know" him! Lucky to live 10 min from them.
    Have a pair of Whites that are 25 years old. Old 9" firefighting lug soles. Some say Whites came first and Nick worked there and struck out on his own. They were 350 all those years ago. Couldn't find any Obenaufs at the time and they dried out and cracked. They just squeak now. Been meaning to get them rebuilt. On their third pair of laces.

    • @ClaridgeLeather
      @ClaridgeLeather  2 года назад

      That’s awesome! I don’t have any Tandy stores around!
      You’re correct on the origin story- I believe Nicks was started a little over 50 years ago. Both excellent boots! Sounds like you’ve got some classic boots there! (As an aside, I think Nicks will rebuild White’s boots too… 👍) Thanks for saying hello, my friend!

    I was a firefighter for 34 years and went through about 6 or 7 pair of boots in my career. My suggestion is, buy the absolute best boot you can. The leather will form around your foot. And after about 30 to 60 days they will feel good. Don't go cheap on you feet. More to say but I'll leave it there.
    Good videos.

    I own a pair of urban loggers that I love. For me that moc toes look quite odd on the 55 last. Most likely this is because I'm use to seeing moc toes on blown rubber soles. Nevertheless, well crafted boots and I'm sure you'll get plenty of use out of them.

      Nick's has a printable size guide that you can step on to measure - When I ordered my Roberts thats what I did and wound up in my same shoe size but an E width. They fit like a dream out of the box and the 55 last hits my high arches just right. Remember to wear the socks you'll wear with the boots when measuring!

      They did- I have worked with them for a few years, helping them develop products to make use of their scrap leather- wallets, valet trays, etc., and have had the privilege of getting to know some of the employees over the years. That relationship (and to get some exposure for this new model) was probably why they decided to send some boots.
