Nicks Tactical
Seidel WeatherShield Black
I have been really concerned the last few weeks about how low the water level is here. Turns out the state has been manipulating the sluice gates for a public works project to reinforce the boardwalk. Our quiet little river town had some very serious flooding last year. At its highest, water was maybe 8 feet from the bottom of that bridge in the background.

Why I own this
I wanted to build a winter specific boot. I work outside all year and the winters here have been killing me. The 360° stitchdown, silicone tanned hide, and insulated options all ticked boxes for me. There's a dress code at work, so I could choose black or brown and black had a shorter lead time when I ordered so here we are.
How I sized
I shot from the hip and ordered what I usually get in WESCO sizing from the foot tracing I've sent them.
Ordering process
Ordering this pair was a bit of a bummer. I had asked about both a tanker 360° and a lace to toe 360° and was answered no to either option. I went ahead and ordered the boots I have now.
