Nicks Work Chelsea

Seidel 1964 Brown

Nice boots, will take punishment

I like Nick's boots. I think I need to get a pair that has a shorter heel. Because I couldn't wear the left boot because of an Achilles injury, the wear and break-in was uneven and hard to tolerate for a couple months. They were very stiff in the soles and could probably do with one less layer of leather without compromising anything. Love the 1964 leather!

More about this item

I tore my left Achilles tendon two weeks before thunderdome. I had to wear a splint moon boot on the left for the first two months and you can see it in the wear. I love the leather. I would probably size down to a 9 if I had to do this again. My other Nick's boots are 9.5 and I thought it would carry over but the Chelsea needs to fit tighter.

Why I own this

Custom

Style

I wanted a rugged Chelsea and I already had a pair of urban loggers so when Nick's put these out there I jumped on them.

How I sized

I went with the same size I wear in urban loggers

Pretty easy. Just went to the Nick's site and it was as simple as any other boot.
