ALL LEATHER OPTIONS | Nicks Handmade Boots

[@nicksboots]

What's your favorite leather?

[@galou0090]

I thought you would also present the Chocolate colour. Has it been discontinued?

[@R_Rod]

all of them

[@Theredeemedchild2]

I was hoping for the brown waxed flesh to be shown.

[@spiljay2]

@@Theredeemedchild2 but wasn't it?

[@figsaregood]

Walnut work leather, especially after a fresh coat of oil

[@edward2198]

I appreciate the side by side comparisons it’s kind of hard to decide which colour to choose but videos like this help immensely so thank you! 🥾

[@nicksboots]

So glad it was helpful!

[@johnfattig6937]

How about a video on all the W&C veg tanned leathers. That's what I was hoping this video had in it as well.

[@surfsessions100]

Is that what the English bridle tan is

[@johnfattig6937]

@@surfsessions100 yes

[@Loud_Thinker]

More leather options explained here by Nick's kzbin.info/www/bejne/jWTIqHR8fbGnn9U

[@Hustler_state]

Yea me too. Wish they offered all their boots in that leather. But they dont

[@AK-IT]

This helps a lot in deciding which leather to choose. The visuals, reflections in different lighting etc.

[@BlueCollarBen]

I got fit a little while back, noticed by the register there was a display showing that you used to be able to choose stitch color. It would be awesome if you guys brought that back.

[@mathiashuffner524]

And again, another video with great informational value without trying to push a sell. I have ordered boots with the 1964 leather. Second option would be the walnut leather. I like the color transition from pale to dark when applying wax/oil. Cheers

[@ecdubytecdubyt]

BURGUNDY!!! Thank you! Very helpful video - thanks for the show & tell.

[@OgreKingMongrel]

This video, I've waited for so long. I'm glad you did this video, thank you!

[@nicksboots]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@pacovl46]

Awesome. Now I know I want black roughout work leather for my boots. Thanks. I enjoyed this video very much.

[@stevie9361]

Brown waxed flesh is beautiful!

[@jeffsilverii6180]

Very well made teaching video thanks helped me decide what leather to buy glad I did

[@A_Man_Of_Culture_]

I've got a pair on order in your limited run Wheat Rapids, and boy am I excited. I cannot wait till yall make a Moc Toe, it would easily be the best Moc Toe ever constructed by mankind

[@mattblair2224]

Great video nicks team, thanks for sharing. Love the new leathers.

[@philcoletta3062]

I finally watched it to the end to see the #8 CXL ! Atta boy!

[@michaelmurray2592]

Amazing video!!! All of those leathers are beautiful but I’m a BLACK leather kinda person. I am excited about the burgundy color as well. Very helpful so thank you for that.

[@swalker6x6]

My current favorite is the veg tan, but I'm looking forward to receiving the 1964 brown...hopefully by the end of summer.

[@contemporaryprimitiveman3469]

Great video. I'm going to be in store in 4 weeks to fit and order. I'm leaning toward 2 tone work/casual with black lower and 1964 upper. Can't wait!

[@65strad]

Top shelf professional presentation. Can't wait to get my first pair of Nicks

[@Connor-dp5sy]

Really nice video very enjoyable to watch

[@nicksboots]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@BoneOrchard]

Would love to see a short video in the style focusing just on the W&C Veg tans. (Selfishly I just want to get a closer look at the color options to help me decide on a pair)

[@NycXTool]

Excellent video!!! The content Nick puts out is almost as good as their product, its getting better also. Keep up the phenominal work. I cant help but imagine your busniess/company is goiong to continue to grow faster & faster!

[@coolbeans353]

I’m sold with the black- work leather🙏🏼 I can’t wait to get my first pair of NICKS Boots 🥾

[@dryfly95]

Great video! Great to see how each leather handles scratches and buffed up! Own 2 pairs of Nicks and can’t say enough about how comfortable they are after break in. When will the olive be available, and will it be available in the heavier work leathers?

[@drakelanders6249]

Great video, I'd like to see one with the W&C leathers

[@johnfattig6937]

Me too

[@lancecowburn1693]

What is W&C mean? Is it a company?

[@drakelanders6249]

@Lance Cowburn yes. It stands for Wickett and Craig

[@rogerr.8507]

Liked for the burgundy chrome

[@ComradeAlpharius]

Can't wait for my pair to get here.

[@johna.w.2922]

The oil and grease makes most of the leathers darker. Would using saddle soap lighten up the leather again, since it pulls out the oils and stuff? Thank you.

[@joshuahenderson5847]

my question too

[@patrickmcnair1965]

I’ve got a pair of hotshots in chocolate and just order a pair of builder pros full rough out walnut with lineman patch and shank can’t wait for em to come in

[@Xkekeskfndsmw]

This is something I have never understood. How can that tan leather be described as being packed full of oils and waxes? After you added grease (oils and waxes), it darkens so much. If it darkens by adding a small amount wax, how can the leather already have so much in it?

[@SugarMapleForge]

I have a pair of Truman's in java waxed flesh and I absolutely love it. Those are my going out boots though. I think I'll get the brown waxed flesh when I get Nick's

[@bonjournaste]

Still haven’t seen a nicer colour than the brown horsehide CXL Roberts I have here,but the 1964 work leather would make a great pair of boots for kicking around in!!

[@kalynlambert6889]

Excited about the burgundy.

[@jof7457]

Great video as always!, would also be interesting to see something similar for the veg tan leather options

[@lgroves336]

You guys NEED to update this video or make a part 2. You have added many more leathers.

[@pshandmadeideas]

amazing video!

[@mikelritchjr5911]

Would I use a leather lotionon the tan leather so as to not darken it. Or what would you recommend?

[@nlibby.268]

Any news on 1964 roughout?? I have my Builder pros ordered but I’m hoping for the roughout to come out before mine are started. Thanks Nicks!!!

[@jimthomas1989]

Whats my Favorite ? One of each !

[@Andy.Fujimoto]

Roughout work leather for the win!

[@chestersnapdragonmcphistic579]

How do the different surface finishes on the work leathers affect water resistance, drying time, time between oiling, and oil absorption?

[@gears35w]

How come you guys don't just offer everything in its roughout version as well? I figure there must be a specific reason for it.

[@earlmcmanus194]

Cool Higonokomi knife.

[@a7x4lrev]

Is the walnut - work shown at 15:41 listed as walnut smooth heavy duty on the website?

[@nicksboots]

Correct!

[@scuba_tron5332]

Which of these do you think would match the Amber harness iron rangers? Walnut work?

[@drumaniac91]

I like the dark olive (or maybe the walnut or brown chromexel). Trying to decide between the Falcon and Americana...

[@nicksboots]

So many great choices make it tough to choose!

[@keggerous]

I'm in the same boat. I can't decide what I want!

[@drumaniac91]

@@keggerous I received the urban logger in waxed brown. I did a standard size because I did not know the custom size could be done remotely (my bad). Jury is still out on the Logger heel for me. If I was to do it again, I would get a slightly lighter brown, honey soles (I walk on a lot of concrete), and consider a lower heel.

[@MH3GL]

Couple of questions... What are you using for your lubricant ("grease" as the presenter calls it)? Why do I never hear tallow being recommended for a conditioner/oil? It seems like it would be a natural choice (since it comes from the same animal...).

[@Old_Sailor85]

I like the 1964 and the walnut work leather. Enjoying a pair of low-cut Travelers (Carl Murawski collaboration) in Peanut Bison. Builder Pros next if I need another pair.

[@OPSteel97]

Is the black roughout died black? Or, is it the tan colored underside pictured in this video?

[@nicolasbaldwin2367]

Love the video. Could you explain a bit of the difference between the 1964 leather, and CXL? They seem pretty similar, and I want to make sure I understand the nuances outside of different colours. .

[@mattsfirewoodvideos738]

A lot of nice materials idk what my next pair of nicks will be lol so many choices

[@TheRav87]

Please oil and waxes used ?

[@Tiger24kicks]

What boot would you recommend for the snow and rain and heavy winter I'm looking to buy 2 boots

[@arthurbarrios888]

My favorite is veg tan leathers they absorb oils nicely. Waxed leathers start cracking pretty fast in my experience

[@ThomasSteed]

Gotta Love fresh leather

[@lancecowburn1693]

I know it didn't say it but is the Predator Orange a CXL or just regular?

[@toadamine]

Why isn't the Predator orange an option in the Custom Boot builder? I want a set of builder Pro in predator orange but the website doesn't seem to offer that option... 🤷‍♂️

[@guillermodvl]

That brown waxed flesh is nice

[@marshalcates]

I have a pair of full rough out black builder pros. I want a pair of traveler's, this just made it harder. I wonder what a NO8 chrome xl traveler's would look like with a black traction tread.

[@mustachio2]

What's the status of the burgandy color? This video is almost a year old now, I really like it and want to see it.

[@rotarvalentin]

Hey, whats the 'work', leather thickness like mm not oz, because the density varies so the 7 to 8 oz can be 1.8-2mm thickness or 2.8 ro 3 mm thickness. Thx in advance

[@sadsnakes]

I wish you could just see the leather options for the boots on your website.

[@josuecalderon5796]

I'm confused. On some you said smooth and some rough but then rough and smooth which is it. To my knowledge the rough out is the more fiber like side. And the smooth is more the casual side. You began showing roughout (fiber like ) then smooth and then said called smooth (fiber like) then roughout(smooth) through the middle of the video then switched back to roughout (fiber like) and then smooth ?

[@MarcP5267]

I prefer the work leather rough out because it seems tough. You said it’s highly abrasion resistant. What about stain resistant?

[@manchild1219]

Do you still offer the natural waxed flesh didn’t see it for the urban logger?

[@surfsessions100]

Where can I see English bridle tan leather thank you

[@metalguyn]

sure wish there was a color chart on the website, I am trying to pick from a list of colors but there are no samples... am I missing something?

[@brendandyer3579]

Can you do a video on the chocolate work leather? Rough out and smooth. I ordered my custom boots in walnut but was just told that I’m going to be waiting even longer than the 20 weeks I’ve already waited due to supplier issues. I’ve thought about switching to the chocolate leather..

[@p2o8wer]

What leather is on the moc toe with the wedge sole on the website?

[@memefeed2147]

Which leathers have the most sheen here? I want something to compliment my shiny color 8 shell cordovan sneakers with a casual boot just as smooth and shiny

[@humanfirst11]

What's the thickest leather you use for your boots?

[@ABC-oo4vm]

I’m getting older and lace ups are becoming difficult. I don’t really care for engineer, motorcycle or a western boot. Would yall custom make a Wellington boot?

[@Old_Sailor85]

Try Lucchese Boots

[@bc2316]

What pocket knife is that?

[@infant2man448]

Is there a way of getting longer boots?

Are the CXL olive and no. 8 7.5-8 oz. also?

[@antondavidoff150]

nobody knows... and i do not see the 8 cxl no more

I can just see what's going to happen in a couple days when someone from the cutting dept. grabs one of these rolls to start cutting and see's someone has been messing with it !! Shits going to hit the fan !!!......LOL!

[@cjanquart]

Thanks, was looking for a brown, so my next pair will be custom lace up heritage in brown CXL; the extra $50 is worth is to get exactly the look I want.

[@saulguzman1884]

I need a super durable leather also something for cold weather like rain slush and snow comp toe comfortable up to 12 hour please help

[@CookingwithCorrado]

Why no scratch and polish test for the #8 and olive leathers? I'm sure people would like to see that.

[@madslashers2002]

Is this still up-to-date?

[@antb5494]

I'm so down for a pair of these boots, had the hooligan picked out but when I went checkout It's gonna cost $100USD to ship to Aus that's crazy. Hopefully you guys can find a better way to ship cause I'd still love to get a pair

[@manchild1219]

The 64 brown rough out looks darker then what I see on the boots

[@storeroomjeff1]

A pair of packers in the olive? What says you?

[@bonifaciomagdiwang1697]

why this predator orange leather is different than the other boots video review the predator orange are more Mustard yellow color?

[@nicksboots]

Probably the lighting.

[@gadgettt935]

I think I know what "pull up" means, but trying to verify it via google just takes me to pull on boots. It seems as if when the boot is stretched, the oils and waxes disperse to other areas of the leather that aren't being stretched. Is that right, and is there anything I'm missing?

[@lukelarsson]

This site has a really good article on Pull Up leather. stridewise.com/what-is-pull-up-leather/ “ Pull up is a finishing technique, not strictly speaking a type of leather - any kind of leather can be pull up. A popular finishing technique for top grain leather, the pull up finishing technique infuses hot oil and/or wax into the hide. The intricate finish allows for lines to form in the leather when pulled or stretched. This pulling creates the desirable “two tone effect.”

[@TommyNitro]

What weight is the brown waxed flesh?

[@TommyNitro]

I'm interested in the Overlanders in this leather. Is it as durable as the 1964? Mostly have hiking, backpacking, and just kicking around in them.
