More about this item

I went in expecting a lighter colored grey boot and what I got was totally different.

Why I own this

Limited Release
Outdoor Activities
Style
Other

I was looking for a boot that was an everyday boot that I could use for anything from going out to dinner, to hiking, to yard work and picked this make up off of kind of an iron ranger or a service boot style. I originally ordered a boot in roughly the same make up but in Wicket and Craig Double Stuffed natural after seeing last years winning boots and how they aged. After Nicks introduced the slate leather early last summer I thought I have 4 other pairs of brown or tan boots and wanted a color of shoes that I didn’t own. It was a bit of a journey as to weather I was even going to get these by the Oct 1 deadline but Nicks really came through and got them to me 1 week before go time.

How I sized

Other

I own another pair of Nicks Overlanders in an HNW last. I did call and ask about sizing and they confirmed the Americana would fit the same. No modifications to the last.

Order Delayed

Ordering was super easy. Ordered online but made a change from Wicket and Craig DS natural to the slate leather after my order had been in for a couple of months with no issues. My order went into production but got delayed and I got a bit worried it wouldn’t even make it by the submission deadline. After calling in as well as chatting with the owner of Nicks via Reddit he said they would show up on time and they did about a week before the opening of the Thunderdome.
