While most boots are meant to be thrown away after a few months, Nicks are built to last. When your boots start to need some servicing, you can send them in to have them resoled or completely rebuilt! Nicks Handmade Boots are serviceable and last years longer than a mass-produced boot. Since 1964, Nicks has been making the highest quality boots on the market, right here in Spokane Washington. If you're tired of your old work boots wearing out, upgrade to Nicks and enjoy the most comfortable boots on the market.

Wish other companies were as transparent as Nick's with the inner workings. Takes confidence in ones trade and skill to post full builds from start to finish. Thanks!!!
In a word, AWESOME! Thanks Nicks! Can't wait until I can grab a pair of Tanker Boots! I was a U.S. Army tanker for 22 years and really miss my tanker boots.
I'd love a pair of these. My calves sometimes swell and being able to loosen the fit of the uppers would make them a lot more comfortable for me.
Pure craftsmanship. Amazing.
Great craftsmanship
Another brilliant episode, I'm sorry if this had been asked a million times before but what do you do with the scrap you are left with likes of from the skiving process and the cutting out of the pattern and trimming off the sole, do you do anything with these scraps of leather from the building of the footwear. But honestly love the channel thanks for sharing this with us.
Wish I had seen these when I was still on tanks 😞 Well done!
So good...
Cool vid, dont own Nicks yet but this will probably be a boot ill take on as a first pair.
Just ordered my tanker pro heritage… I can’t wait to get them (though I know it will be a wait)
Magnific boots

I’ve ordered the same spec tanker, so excited! 🥹
What kind of glue did you use to that sir?.
is this the 1964 tan in rough out?
New boot in the line?
I drove a gas tanker for years, that would be a awesome boot for the road
Beautiful boots- tho ive no need for such a boot- i could use a pair of casual walkers in size 11.5 EEE lol
it says in the description the heel stack is 3/4 to 1 inch but when building a boot with a block heel it only gives option of 3/8 to 1/2? and i thought the legendary Arche support is with the logger heel , not the block heel?
In the description it is taking about the sole stack not the heel stack. So up by the ball and toes of your foot is 3/4 to 1 inch. The actual heel is a 3/8 to 1/2 inch heel and it is not the taller arch support. That is a hnw last on that boot not the 55 or 67. That’s why it has a shorter heel and a block heel.
is this the 1964 tan roughout ?
What's price ?
If these guys were not in the US i would've bought a few pairs in heart beat
8:10 yes, that's right. The Sith Lord Stitcher in "Factory-Mode" rather than "Rebuildable"
What
Why do y'all put that die on the midsole before putting the glue on? I've seen you do it a lot on you're other boots but i never figured out why.
That part of the midsole can be seen when the boot is done and to make sure it fits in with the rest of the boot they dye it. And the reason as to why they dye it before putting it on is as to not get any dye one the boot itself, which can cause a stain.
I need a pair of these it’s shame that Australian currency is worth almost nothing
You are real...
This shit is impressive 👏
I need to understand something. If the leather is nailed into the last to shape and hold it down, and they never take said nails out of the heal, how the hell is there not nails sticking into the space your feet go?
And im not speaking of them building up the sole and arch support im talking right after their done sowing the upper and lower together and start shoving inch long tacs into the heal straight into the last to shape it.
Hook nail. the anvil underneath bends the nail before it comes through to hold. Then you see they’re putting a leather sock protector in over the top of the insole to cover any of the nails that come through a bit.

Curiosity is killing the cat, when will the side zip station boot start to be made
They’re already for sale on their website.
Those boots came out in like July and right now there standard lead time production is in may. So probably another two months before the side zip enters production.
@@MordecaiAliVanAllenOShea yeah, I ordered mine in september
👍👍
Wouldn't the strings that are exposed on the bottom of the tread wear off pretty quickly
Yes, but it doesn’t affect anything. I’ve been wearing mine for two years walking mostly on concrete and gravel (construction) and the uppers still look brand new after a quick clean and oil. No loose stitches, cracks, creases, etc.
They’ve been amazing boots.
Much better than the crap we got from uncle Sam as a tanker. I'd love to have a pair of these but I can't afford them
This tanker boot is... how can I say it casual? Just for fun?
Well, it's a great looking boot and could certainly be worn casually, but you saw the construction. This is a travelers boot. If I were walking on developed trails or doing walking tours or such.
@@CrimFerret Thanks.
Or 12EEE LMAO
Those are no boots, but foot Torture 🤣🤣🤣
🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦👍👍👍❤❤❤
Tanker boots are for people that drive tanks? If that's the case, the boot appears to have too many straps, which can be caught into things.
But I love the quality.... whatever is the purpose.. not sure
Lol have you ever seen tanker boots?
@Silent no, never... but some folks are driving tanks in the boots that don't have straps or laces... they are just much higher above the ankle, though... alike riding boots.
But I like these as well, the concept appears to be sound.
@@niktarasyuk535 the starps are much less likely to get caught on things than laces. American tankers usually wear boots similar in design to the one in the video. Here in Europe we tend to wear normal laced boots same as non-armoured units, but I'm investing in a pair of these, because I wear those out pretty quickly.
@Oliver Pásztor yes, I came to the same conclusion... the boots do make sense, and my original comment doesn't really make sense anymore, but I left it there

Looks okay but not for 700, I bet they don't last even half as long as the Corcoran originals either. Maybe be reasonable with the cost and people who actually know what a Tanker Boot is will buy them, but for now I'll stick to the 200 I need for the originals
Lol Corcoran have nothing on this in terms on build quality and durability. This is made out of 7-8oz full grain leather while the coyote and sand Corcorans are suede, which is much thinner and has a looser fiber structure. Nick's boots are also resoleable and rebuildable, the Corcorans are done once they wear out.
@@oliverpasztor788 I've got a 30 year old and 18 year old pair of Corcorans that say otherwise
@@BravoWB I never said Corcorans are not durable in my reply. What I said is that Nick's is in another level in terms of durability, longevity and construction quality.
i see they still don't have anyone that can make a proper stitch line. maybe they should move to the east side of the country. more skilled labor.
Off, the poors are trying to throw shade with their Walmart Brahma shoes.
@@Totemparadox are you a fan of revenge of the cis?
@@pixxburgh420 The what now?
Your ability to make footwear is excellent, but we don't want to see your ego ill-founded to do your job, the beauty of a tutorial is sharing the molds, etc.
Speak for yourself bub, I love these videos
Sharing the molds? Why would they want to do that?
Nick's boots are the best I'm saving up money 💰 so I can get a pair because I see the pride they take in there boots and as well as their customers and they don't hide anything about there company or how their boots are made and the fact they make them specifically for the customer and all the measurements is absolutely amazing I will always stand behind this company and will not by another pair of boots from anyone else is amazing because I will be ordering myself a pair really soon to celebrate surviving a double pulmonary embolism 🫁 thanks to my amazing wife for saving my life..
Congratulations! We are honored that we are your celebration, we are glad you're still with us.
with laces they'd be perfect
