More about this item

With just shy of 600 miles I must say this has been my favorite Nicks combination to date. The 55 last is amazing and comfortable and once broken in I must admit, I didn’t want to love it, but I absolutely prefer my 55 over the PNW last. The whisky predator leather has aged beautifully throwing some great contrasts between highs and lows and really turned to a very rich brown that would quickly shine up with a good buff rub with a horse hair brush with minimal effort. The single piece backstay in combination with the rolled 6” top gave a great hybrid look to bridge the gap between workwear and everyday wear. The mini lug sole has provided me with enough grip to give confidence on the many surfaces of a construction site but didn’t have to worry about the pesky rocks/screws getting stuck in the sole like I experienced with the traditional Lug sole in the past. And I was concerned with wear since it’s much smaller in sole, but with my current 600 miles I’d say I have at least 600 more before I would start considering a resole. Overall I love these boots and would, have, and will recommended these to everyone.
