More about this item
Quick Ship due to Slip Sole shortage of’26.See background
Why did you choose this item?
Not my first pair of Nicks. But definitely the best fitting.
How did you determine your size?
Trial and error.
What was the ordering process?
Slip Sole Shortage of ‘26 was a the perfect time to grab a quick ship pair in the perfect size at a great price during their online sale.
Use & wear
Break-in going easier than expected. Even though it’s a 7oz work leather, it has felt comfortable from the first wear.
Leather
Loving the Coyote Roughout. A quick brush after wearing is about all the maintenance this pair will need.
Fit
Finally have my 55 Last dialed in. Fit and break-in so much better when sized correctly from day one.
Craftsmanship
A 4 week delivery and they were firing on all cylinders. Perfect stitching. Heel sanding is flawless. No leather blemishes.
Sole & heel
Loving how much more flexible the 430 is over the V-bar.
Great way to dress up a daily wear boot.
Final thoughts
Getting a pair of boots that fit; actually fit, is a great feeling. Great to see handmade boots are still a thing in today’s planned obsolescence world.
