Durable boots that survived heat, rain, and damp — no spa needed.
Nicks BuilderPro in Seidel 1964 Brown Smooth & Seidel 1964 Brown RoughoutBy butcheredman • September 26, 2025"I’ve put these boots through it all — wet weather, hot days, even being completely soaked — and they’ve never let me down. The only time I had an issue was when a bit of mold showed up after 25 straight days of working in damp, rainy conditions. But even that cleared up easily just by giving them sun and fresh air. I never needed any professional boot care — their durability speaks for itself...."Read the full review

It's been a pleasure experiencing the break in process of Nicks flagship boot
Nicks BuilderPro in Seidel 1964 MonarchBy Idale77 • November 2, 2024"I wear these boots for my M-F job in public works. The work I do varies. Some days I'm doing various jobs or projects on my feet on asphalt or concrete. Some days I'm operating machinery or driving a truck. This past month has been very dry and dusty. They get wet occasionally when I'm cleaning equipment, but have not been in the rain yet...."Read the full review
Great boot with plenty of toe room. It really comformed to my feet after breaking in.
Nicks DomePro in Wickett & Craig Natural Double StuffedBy Feral • April 6, 2025"I wore these to work everyday with some weekends thrown in. They took some work to break in but after that they are incredibly comfortable. You can easily have them on 10+ hours. I used these in a machinist/facilities shop; lots of hard floors...."Read the full review
Timber Roanoke, Builder Pro's. The Supple Veg Tanned Leather That Could...
Nicks BuilderPro in Horween Timber RoanokeBy ShnyHntr91 • April 3, 2026"Setting poles, pulling wire, bringing electricity into folks homes are the required duties asked of all my work boots. But these endured so much more than that. Several weeks of either wet conditions and/or frozen temperatures kept this pair in check day in and day out.
Calcium Chloride was the ultimate boss battle, as it worked its way deeper into the vulnerable vegetable tanned leather that Roanoke is. Several light duty cleanings were needed just to maintain the integrity of the boot.
Once winter broke the scars of battle were evident but the Builder Pro's still stand strong...."Read the full review
