    I think that people are missing a pretty important point when they are bashing on Wolverine for these boots in the chat. Price. You can buy at least two pairs of Wolverine 1000 miles (3 if you find a good sale) for the price of one pair of Nick’s boots. OF COURSE the Nick’s boots should be better (and they are). For the price bracket they compete in, I think that the construction and materials on the Wolverine’s are fine. I think that Wolverine should be commended for still building well constructed boots here in the US, rather than selling on name alone.

      I live in Rockford Michigan and got my set of 1000 mile boots for half off during Black Friday. They're the most comfortable boots I've ever worn. I agree with this post.

      Yeah and make you pay out he nose to get it. $350 for a rebuild? Leather and manhours are expensive but not THAT expensive. I could buy multiple full hides for $300. I'm sure they could sell these boots for two thirds of what they do and still be in the green.

      @@benningsniper9516 That's what they are charging you for, I can't request "hey could you just charge me for the materials and not the inflated man hours?'". You absolute moron. It takes roughly $50 of leather for the boot and I've seen how long it takes to make one. I think they are making a killing. Maybe not, I could be wrong. But that's how it looks to me.

    Those are some serious upgrades. Even though that stitch down construction is incredibly rugged and utilitarian, if this was my pair of boots, I probably would have kept the welted construction method, just for ease of many future resoles. They look great though. It's always very satisfying to see boots get upgrades when they are recrafted. I'm planning on upgrading my 1000 Mile Boots when the time comes.

      Its roughly the retail cost of a new pair of wolverine 1000 mile boots ($300-$350). To be fair though, the rebuilt Nicks 1000 mile is a far superior product to the stock 1000 mile. Its a bit like comparing a stock car to a NASCAR track vehicle.

    They look great. My only complaint is that Vibram sole will wear down at pretty much the same rate as a normal 1000-mile boot. With converting them to stitch down they're going to be a pain in the rear end to get your local cobbler to resole them again. I would have rather kept the goodyear welted design
