    Steel caulks are the only choice for serious loggers. Loggers have depended on Nicks for generations for durability, comfort and unbeatable traction.
    While most boots are meant to be thrown away after a few months, Nicks are built to last. When your boots start to need some servicing, you can send them in to have them resoled or completely rebuilt! Nicks Handmade Boots are serviceable and last years longer than a mass-produced boot. Since 1964, Nicks has been making the highest quality boots on the market, right here in Spokane Washington. If you're tired of your old work boots wearing out, upgrade to Nicks and enjoy the most comfortable boots on the market.

    I have a pair of Rockport Waterproof boots I bought in 1995 for $100, back when they used Gore-Tex lining. They are still like new, but to be fair they have received light use. I bought four similar pair during the same year and wore one or another pair daily until the soft soles and heels wore out. Had I known a cobbler shop I would have had them rebuilt. Alas, the three Rockport pairs I bought in the past ten years are not the same quality, neither in build nor materials, but they are comfortable, and two pair of sturdy loafers, one waterproof, have lasted about 3 years nearly daily wear. My point is that though quality has gone down since 1995, for most people some shoes and boots in the $100 range give decent value for the money, and I would buy them again. Few of us *need* handmade boots, though I understand the desire and the *want* factor completely. I hope there will always be a viable market for quality like Nick's Boots.

      I have Chippewa logging boots, I did as a side job with a few drinking buddies in the country part of conn. And western mass back about 12 years ago and these boots are still alive and kicking only think I didn't like is if you weren't careful you would twist your ankle(s) easily because of the height and narrowness of the soles. Mine are also steel toe which I wore daily and they never gave me a problem. I love those boots and will buy another pair as long as they're Chippewa logger. I didn't like the ones in the vid because the toes weren't full grain leather (they were suede) like the rest of the boot. My whole boot is made of the leather like the heel to top. Mine has also better insoles lol I rather mine
