Thanks for watching!!! If you didn't catch the code for $20 off of any pair of Nicks in the video be sure to go back and watch through it to save yourself a couple bucks! But be quick, the code only works for the first 10 people to activate it!
I looked for these on your site hoping to buy them. Are they just for RUclips? I live in the desert. These things could actually survive here. You should coordinate with BF Goodrich for the Baja 1000 or something. I truly want a pair in size 13.
And back years ago in the early 90’s when I was doing this with old BFG All terrains replacing the soles on my Doc Marteens people thought I was crazy . Never had to replace my boots again until I was bored of them .
Years ago I worked in a prison. They had a shoe/ leather shop. There was an inmate that would use a lawn tractor tire just because it didn’t have any metal wires thru it. He made some wonderful wedge soles with them.
I did the same thing to a pair of hiking boots that I loved. I just slathered on Shoe Goo and clamped the car tire soles on. Worked fantastic but oh my god they added so much weight!
Thats awesome, I believe more boots should have that sole technology. If they will carry a truck thousands of miles, they will probably carry a man a lifetime.
We were putting tire treads on our boots back in the early 70's,we had a shoe and boot shop near our house,and he would sew on the tire tread to our boots,we supply the boots and tire tread.
CHALLENGE: Build a 6" Traveler w/ Vibram Cristy sole using a 55 Last. I would think if you add 2-3 sanded/tapered midsole layers from arch to heel keeping the bottom flat, then cover with a solid rubber slip sole, a Traveler with the 55 last arch support could work.
Hey Nick i NEED a pair of boots, however my case is a bit specific so i was wondering what type i should go for. I weld at Honda SC manufacturing it’s a long, hard, n fast paced day on concrete. Also every thing that you can wack yourself is at ankle height, i also cant have metal on the outside of the boot and must be steel toe. So my check list is -Plenty of support for long days standing n anti slip -All leather and able to resist weld spatter -No/minimum metal on the outside of the boot -Ankle protection is a must, 8 inch boot -Must have steel/safety toe Im a 10 wide, what is your suggestion?
*This was a really cool video! The video description says how this isn't for sale and for entertainment purposes only. @nicksboots The next time you all do a special video of some sort, where the boots won't be for sale, write a pinned comment instead. Nobody reads the video description. I saw TONS of comments from people wanting a pair of tired tread boots lol 😅🤣🤣🤣🤣! That tells you no one reads the video description ever. So write a pinned comment, and people for sure will see that instead! It'll save you a lot of trouble from telling people over and over that one off boots aren't for sale.*
Watching this, I come away thinking there are gonna be some sore hands at the end of every shift. Almost unbelievable people in 2023 can and do make boots this way. Wow.
Does it have a steel toe variant? I would definitely be interested if there was a steel toe version designed for construction. If it had a steel plate in the bottom, that would be icing on the cake.
would of been better to keep the sole/heel as a one piece wedge sole? Its the first pair of nicks boots I seen that dont look "just right" The way its done looks a bit odd?
I have 1 issue with every pair of boots I buy on top of the toe in the center I get that evil little dent that looks like I dropped a metal rod on them lol how can I fix that or I'm I wearing boots wrong lol
I tried that, but those DAMN steel belts got too wiry! What grit was that sanding belt that ground them so well, and what more did you have to do to make the sides smooth??!!
Codes must have all been used, Ive typed everything in and none of them work hahahaha. I figured 6 days you shouldve gotten 10 orders by now :) Twas a fun video to watch through.

Pls cover my bare foot brother winter is coming so pls gave me one pair of boot
Someone stole my Nick’s just this past Mother’s Day weekend.
These boots look so good! What type of leather is that? My Nick’s were walnut half roughouts. This looks like a different color; I really like it 👍🏾🫡.
Please brother gave me any pair of boot winter is start now cover my bare foot

Doc Martins are not even close to the quality of a pair of Nicks, but hey if it works, go with it if you can't afford Nicks.
@@badmoon7549 No one said anything about quality . It’s about function . But thanks for the Dick comment .
@Doc_Fischer Sorry, I didn't mean it that way. I apologize.
I've heard of goodyear welted but this is next level
Guess these you dont have to worry about rotating them.
Maybe after the first 100,000 mile 😆 🤣 😂
😂😂😂
I was thinking after a 100,000 steps.
Make shure you Cross the non drive axle
That's the best joke I've heard in while.
This is a ridiculous amount of overkill. I LOVE it!
Years ago I worked in a prison. They had a shoe/ leather shop. There was an inmate that would use a lawn tractor tire just because it didn’t have any metal wires thru it. He made some wonderful wedge soles with them.
"worked in a prison" is a creative way to say it
I used the same tires to repair shoes at home. The non steel belted tires work great
Goddammb why on earrht do criminals get to do leather workshop. If ure in prison u should be on the medieval torture devices
Would definitely get those custom tire soles
Man.. i wish i could buy something like this... i really love stuff made to endure years and years of use with good care
In India they recycle tires by turning them into sandals
The coolest soles I've ever seen. I'd love to get these.
I want to do this with blizzak snow tires and see how the grip and wear compare to the white x soles. Probably need to shave off the steel belt layer.
you are right
excellent job, with a lot of talent, we won't get those artisans nowadays, God bless those gifted hands 🎉
Now you can take your Nicks boots off-road.
I did the same thing to a pair of hiking boots that I loved. I just slathered on Shoe Goo and clamped the car tire soles on. Worked fantastic but oh my god they added so much weight!
love shoe goo for lots of stuff.
Yup shoo goo good stuff …. It’s also used to permanently fix toe guard,s onto the bottom edge of cricket bats .
Seen this year's ago in Mexico.

These are exactly what I need for work

I am watching this prossess on RUclips now. Fantastic. Greetings from Indianapolis Indiana

Holy hell. They cut up a bfg ko2 for the sole. They will probably never wear out

Awesome! Who knew it can be done?
Nicks Huaraches!
"Just because you can doesn't mean you should". LOL! 🙂
Finally. Tread that lasts
I want a pair of these. I didn’t see them on your site. Maybe put tire boots on the listing if they are on there.
I need some of these! K02 shoes to match the tires on my LX470.
Que calçado sensacional. Gostei bastante. 🇧🇷

I heard that airplane tires work well and last a long time.

En Guerrero México se fabrican guaraches (tipo de sandalia común en la región) con ese tipo de suela
Yes Sr desde hace décadas se reciclaban haciendo sandalias en varias partes del sur de Mexico
chanclas?
@@JohnH20111 no
How do these boots compare to the Courtney's from Zimbabwe for hunting?
It was a great exercise in what can be done. Greeeeat job!
As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I want to be wearing a pair of these boots.
Curious question here.
Did the same craftsman make both boots in an order or does one "specialize" in the right boot and another the left?
The Kiridashi at 12:08 pretty sick.
Best boots in the world. I bet that gap between the heal and the shank really pissed off the guy making them.
Bet those will take a while to ware out. 👍 very nice
would of been better to keep the sole/heel as a one piece wedge sole? Its the first pair of nicks boots I seen that dont look "just right" The way its done looks a bit odd?
Sell these please... 100% would buy... awesome!!
High quality and ultra durable 😊
Soooo when r you releasing them into regular production
Those boots look so cool
Now I want to resole my boots with studded snow tires
Beautifully made boots. Would you make a foot shaped pair with no raised heel?
Check out our Thurman shape option, it has a wider toe box and less aggressive arch! nicksboots.com/thurman-last-heritage-custom-config-1/
I wonder what kind of glue is used to attach the sole to the boot...
i wish i could get that truck tire sole on my redwings and my carolina's with a good year welt on them not glued
Fantástico trabajo, talentos fabricando un óptimo producto 😊.. Felicitaciones 🍷🍷🍷..!.!
Hi, nice video. I have question... where do you get the rubber truck tire flat?
They got them from the tire company listed at the end of the video
I think Mike said no don't bother me admit LOL
that glue won't last long..
what glue or procedure would be best for this application?
Desde Chile..un gran abrazo.. son geniales.. gracias
Could you make me a pair with some M&H Racemaster, or Goodyear Drag Slicks, for when I have to get someplace a little quicker on the streets? Thanks.
Mall terrains on boots??! Awwww man! 😆
Tsl Boggers please!
i think coz of nicks boots we all have to take off our shoes at the airport....lol.... so many nails.... the metal detector goes bizzark
I remember the sandals in the jungle were made of car tires.
А на зиму шипованные поставите или это всесезонные покрышки?🙂
Who are these for, the Frankenstein monster?
Goodyear midus guy looks like casper their for him .
Are they 10 ply E rated?
I’d love to rock a pair of these boots!
I have 1 issue with every pair of boots I buy on top of the toe in the center I get that evil little dent that looks like I dropped a metal rod on them lol how can I fix that or I'm I wearing boots wrong lol
That is badass. 😮
When you've got a workout with Paul Bunyan at noon but you've gotta rescue Morpheus at 3.
So many nails on inner sole.Dont you remove them?Or are they rivets?
I wonder how much are these boots, and what is their weight??
50,000 miles of hiking trails coming up
yep
I tried that, but those DAMN steel belts got too wiry! What grit was that sanding belt that ground them so well, and what more did you have to do to make the sides smooth??!!
Nice, I like leather boots like this. Do you have a sales link? Can I order my own model?
estas botas en latinoamerica serian una maravilla la mayoria de materiales se desgastan muy rapido por los trabajos que se realizan
I need a pair in 14W. But I want BFG KO2. And I need a pair in 14W with Nitto Mud grappler. Thanks
Man, i've been watching your videos for almost 2 years now, and i absolutely love 'em, but sadly i can't never afford to buy a pair...😕😕🤷🤷
Hi Nicks !
Can you share the recipe of best shoe polish ? 0:59
contact cement
How much for the toughest boots?
Pretty cool 😎
So where is this option on your site?
Very nice job ✊
How comfy are they though?
How do I order these soles on a pair of boots?
Codes must have all been used, Ive typed everything in and none of them work hahahaha. I figured 6 days you shouldve gotten 10 orders by now :) Twas a fun video to watch through.
Bf Goodrich treads 😅
We used to do that in Ho duras in the 80's
Finally we can run off road :)
Oddly enough I bet this would help my spine...
A regular lug with a 55 last would probably be a bit better than these bad boys)
Hey guys I'm looking for a 72 in pair of heavy duty laces , any suggestions? Greatly appreciated.
i love watch people do things with his own hands. amazing that GOD create such wonderful beings "WE"
That steel braiding is usually not stainless expect rust...
Got any mudgrips for sale?
looks like those fashion boots with the thick soles that girls like. were you going for the girl-boot look?
First Tubeless boots in the world 😅😅😅
thous are sick!
Holy cow that's a boot
Like an 8 gauge shotgun, I don't need one , but I want one. They must be heavy boots. Guessing about 5 pounds each.
And not an ounce flexibility in that sole. I’d imagine they will be like walking with casts on.
probably not much different than the Speedlace Black Leather Combat Boots in the Army, those were at least 3 to 5 lbs each
these bad boys are rated for 100,000 miles for people who say their soles wear out too fast, take that Wolverine
I'll like use boot like these😎👍🏻
Awesome 👏🏼.
/how many have you worked for nick"s
Price of this shoes??
Now you know somebody's going to see this is going to say I want a pair of these and I wonder how much it's going to cost
For the women that love to drive stick and go extreme off roading . You’ll have serious traction control.😅
