I wore these boots casually. They’ve been to football and basketball games and concerts.

Break-In
It’s held up well, no major splits with no conditioning at all. Break in was easy as I order true to size.

Satisfied with the Fit
I’m a 12.5 D on a bannock. 12D in nicks is way too tight. 12.5 true to size is good for me. I imagine a 12E would also work well.

There's no question. These are my outdoor boots for the foreseeable future. I love these boots.
Nicks x Rose Anvil ND3 in Horween Brown Waxed FleshBy ProletariatPrince • April 5, 2025"I wore these every other day for the dome, plus some extra days when I knew I'd be working outside. I didn't shy away from rain, snow, mud, or anything. I just put them on and went out, and they took everything I could throw at them.
I even wore them through the airport and on the plane.
I did a lot of walking in these boots. They are, in fact, the most comfortable boots I have for walking. 8-10 miles in a day was no problem at all.
After they broke in some I had no trouble squatting or kneeling in them, though after a while of squatting, it does feel tight across the instep. But that's true for any boots.
Standing on ladders was never a problem, climbing skinny scaffold and tower ladders was never a problem. I never felt unsure of my footing.
I travel a lot, so I wore them in cold, wet, hot, dry, every condition from Florida to West Texas, to Seattle, to Brooklyn, to Missouri and everywhere in between. I never had any issues with wet feet or discomfort...."Read the full review
Zero regrets. These are a great hiker/work boot.
Nicks x Rose Anvil ND3 in Horween Brown Waxed FleshBy ProletariatPrince • December 29, 2024"I have worn these from Florida to Missouri to Washington to New England. They never fail to perform.
The recent very cold weather in Washington want great, but I didn't really feel like I needed insulation. Standing outside in 30degree weather for six hours wasn't entirely unpleasant. I wonder if the lace to toe double vamp helped with that.
Rain, snow, heat, nothing is uncomfortable...."Read the full review

Nicks x Rose Anvil ND3 in Horween Brown Waxed Flesh & Seidel 1964 Brown SmoothBy cjelliott • March 22, 2025"These are my daily boots, mainly at work where anything from bleach to carrot cake can end up on them. I manage a bakery/Coffee shop and spend most of my time on bar or making items. The snow in my area often didn't cause any issues with these, they are essentially water resistant with all the wax. They have gone on many dog walks and wooded trails near my home...."Read the full review
A "soft toe" from Nicks.
Nicks x Rose Anvil ND3 in Horween Brown Waxed Flesh & Seidel 1964 Brown SmoothBy cjelliott • April 4, 2025"I work at a bakery and most of my working day is spent slinging drinks and serving food so my boots see a lot of chemicals, syrups, natural dyes like matcha and turmeric, and bleach. The lighter weight build has helped me keep up with the fast-paced environment and given me peace of mind when it comes to dropping drinks or things on my feet. I've taken the boots to the family homestead in the Raneer foothills, walked with the slugs and moose in the local wildlife parks, hiked with my dog Remi at the PNW famous Bowl and Pitcher trail and trenched through snow during the longer winter this year...."Read the full review
