      Those boots look crazy-great, that's for sure!! (Anyone out there who's reading this and thinking of buying a pair, you'll need to go to the "collections" tab to make a customized pair. If you just go to ULogger customization tab, the leather doesn't show up. I wrote an email inquiry and was told the option wasn't available. Being undaunted, or stupidly inspired, I called this morning and Lou helped me find the Collections workaround.)

    I've owned my Nicks Urban Logger for roughly 1.5 years. Used Nicks try on custom fit. Try on boots fit so well I didn't want to send them back. At the time it took 6 months for my boot build. I went with the waxed flesh 8 inch honey lug sole and added the loop. I could not be more impressed, they looked incredible. They fit even better. I did Nicks recommended break-in. For me, the break-in was easy enough. After spending a year and half working hunting and hiking in this boot, I can't believe how well they fit my feet. The insole has a perfect impression that my foot fits into. I used my government stimulus money to purchase my boots. Can't tell you how happy I am that the money stayed in America. If we have to pay back $3124532990364755 in national debt as of 11/11/2022 at least my portion went to stimulate the US economy, not plastic crap from China. By the way that number works out to $93732 for every person in America. This is a real boot, built by real Americans.

    Love my urban drifters (lower heel version of what you have). My only issue after about five hikes is the relatively shallow heel cup doesn't hold the back of the foot as firmly as I like when wearing thick socks. I need to use the top eyelets to steady foot enough for climbing over rocks and such. I think that situation will improve as the foot sinks into the insole more deeply.

      Man that's a bit of pressure. Not sure if you have seen my Franks Boots video but I love this leather even more than the leather on those boots. That said, this is the best leather I've owned. Gosh man, I gotta say now that I am thinking about it. I really don't think I've had better leather. it's such a hard thing cause I've been blessed to tour so many boot shops and fell in love with many types of leather. I really do like the Waxed Flesh and think it is perfect for this boot. I worry at this point if I don't stop typing I'll only confuse you more and then start wondering what leather I want next... You will not regret Double Stuffed Buck Brow. I put pictures on my Instagram and Facebook if you want to see more pics of them.

    I've had my Nick's Urban Loggers for ~ 18 months... wore them on/off/on during the cold weather days. They are the rough out leather and still look nearly new. My only real complaint is one of the boots squeaks like crazy every step I take!! People in the office can hear me down the hall coming and my wife makes fun of my custom $550 dollar boots that I waited a long time to get. Kinda makes me not wear them much at all anymore... very sad!! Nick's says it's "normal" and just wear them... my complaint is if it's normal, whey is it only 1 of my boots that squeaks? I think next go around for a custom boot I'm going to try another maker.

    • @GentlemansJourney
      @GentlemansJourney  Рік тому +1

      Some of the Facebook groups talk about the squeaking from some of the PNW companies. I think putting some powder in them helps. Even some rebuilds have had mixed reviews. At any rate, this is something I'll bring up in future discussions with these companies when I'm with them. Cheers Eric

They are cool looking boots and a quality build, just spend most of their time in my closet floor given the noise they make. Really makes me hesitate in buying another pair of custom boots that I don't get to try on first.

      @@KingPhilipF Great question. This stuff will come out in the one year review as well. However, they are certainly not an every day boot. These are largely based on a work boot meant to go into the woods and do work. The Urban side does not shine through near as much as the Logger side. If you need an every day boot maybe do the Americana or the Urban Drifter? These are a bit much for running around. Very heavy and bulky for sure. I love them but not an everyday boot.
