Blue Collar Living with Hurricane Effects
Nicks MTO in Horween Tan Waxed FleshBy DocLineman • April 1, 2025"I started this dome on storm in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Florida restoring power to those devastated by both Hurricane Helene and Milton. I’m a huge hunter so I’ve walked through the woods in search of sheds, and locating best the hunting locations. Living on a 400 acre farm also comes with its own challenges and work. From bailing hay, loading wagons, working on equipment to land management. These boots face challenges on all levels yet have cleaned up beautiful enough to wear to church...."Read the full review

Nicks MTO in Horween Brown Waxed FleshBy JY • April 5, 2025"I wore these boots everyday for everything I did. From conducting airborne operations to dancing at the club on NYE. I moved from the US to Europe, and visited a fistful of new countries. I went to Tiesto, Nicki Minaj, and Vivaldi concerts. I explored, hiked, hunted, went to the field and to the range, jumped out of airplanes then brushed them off and went out for dinner and drinks. I wore them every day for everything except running and the gym, although at least once I did squat in them because I forgot my lifting shoes..."Read the full review
