To the families of all servicemembers lost who, no doubt, many wore a pair of Nick's, we salute you. Thanks for another great video you shared! Truly artists at work.

what impresses me is the young people learning a craft and doing an excellent job!! good job!!

[deancooke]

Amazing to watch the skill involved. I now understand why these type of boots are so costly.

[jimhuskins]

A pleasure to watch these folk’s work.

[virtusleather]

Beauty. Might have brought that heel stack in a bit tighter to the shape of the heel upper, but to each their own. awesome boots. ✊🏻

[JFrit]

Incredibly talented people at Nick’s. My boots were worth every penny.

[mgibson]

Coming in for a fit and ordering my Packers in Aug. Can’t wait!!!

[TheDagraner]

The packer boot was an off shoot of the standard "cowboy" boot. Still able get in and out of a stirrup but also able to walk around with some ankle support. They're as western as any roper boot is, fellas. They just cone from a different job field.

[arnoldhenkee]

Good job guys, people don’t understand that those are working boots with a little of western boots touch 🤟👍

I love Nicks. My Urban Loggers are the best footwear I own by a mile, but cmon now. I'm really itching to get a second pair of Nicks (Dark Olive or that double oil W&C), I would probably jump on a pair of Nicks real, pull up cowboy/roper boots in a heartbeat.

Are you able to choose a different color thread for the toe bug? I was thinking of smooth 1964 brown leather with a slightly darker brown toe bug. I think the white on brown is just a bit too flashy for me. Either way, thanks ahead of time for responding!

[joshuataylor]

I still say that y'all really should do a square toe pull-on.

[darinr]

What are the chances I'll see my boots being made on here? One can hope!

[tonyromero]

Nick’s need to make a pull on cowboy boot the a Vibram sole

[maddawgnoll]

What tannery leather are y'all using for these? Looks like really nice leather to work with

[robertboyer]

Okay. I've never seen that style and think it looks weird, but it's well built weird. 😂

[tonymendoza]

Thank every one of you who work every day to keep an American tradition alive. I know that my my boots are made by American craftsman that have stood up and not this company China.

I remember when everything was made in USA and everything was the best quality just like those boots, the problem we have today is the crooks in government that have destroyed the American industry it all started with environmental regulations and high taxes and let's not forget the unions ( not all unions) one by one factories started closing down when they closed down the last Levi factory in Texas I remember the feeling of sadness, what we need to do is buy wherever USA made - like zippo lighters or Coleman lanterns or Case and Buck knifes and it's not wasting money because they can coming handy one day but we're helping what's left of the American industry - God bless USA.
