The Nicks Lineman Boots represent the pinnacle of quality and durability. This boot is built like our BuilderPro™ with added features specifically for those who work as a Lineman. These are the best boots for climbing and are designed to be highly serviceable for years of wear.
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.

I love these videos even though for most of the boots, the process is pretty similar. Nothing is hidden. There's no reason to try to make anything secret when the secret is you're using the best materials, top construction techniques, with really highly skilled craftspeople. The amazing thing is that these don't cost more. It's not a low cost of living area and I'm sure the craftspeople who make these make pretty decent money. It's not like they can just go easily hire more with the skills needed to do the various tasks.
Thank you for the thoughtful response. We're committed to quality and transparency!
Have you ever considered targeting the Telecom industry? There are tons of guys climbing towers in Walmart boots, sneakers, Van's etc. I think a dedicated "Tower Climber Boot" could sell well at the right price point. Skanked for standing on ladders, legs, struts, etc. Not too tall of a toe for fitting into spaces between the tower's structure. Idk, could be worth looking into. Maybe talk to some guys WAY more experienced than me. There's TONS of old tower dogs out there who know what's up. The industry will only grow and why not instill a tradition of wearing classic, durable, American boots on-site?
When a Sunday morning begins with a new boot-making video featuring these incredible artists from Nick's, you know it's gonna be a fantastic day!
Totally agree.
Hell yea...these videos relax me so much...I thought they would bore me but I freaking love boot making videos now... especially Nicks
Sure is a LOT of work and craftsmanship that goes into making a pair of these Nicks. Thank you.
What an incredible process. These people are true craftsman and they make difficult tasks look easy. Great video!
I would love to see a video or short on just mistakes fails outtakes tantrums you know the new guy in the shop!
Do to a very serious word place injury I require custom made boots. I have always wondered how they where made. Thank you for the insight. Craftsman of the finest order. 5⭐.
Love watching y’all make these boots
Fantastic! Great boots made by great people! I need a pair!
Question. Is there an inside and outside to the boots before they are put on the last? Or is the leather sewn symmetrical? Thanks
Would be awesome to see a note with each piece telling us what it was as it was shown i.e. vamp, heel counter, lineman patch etc..
Great way to start my Sunday! I love watching the craftsmanship that goes into these boots. It's like a watch, so many different components to construct the end product.
Nailed it.
Need a video on Manito, would be nice to see that one
Perfect

Badass
Watching this video makes you want to go fix a fence or go cut down some trees or any hard working projects 😂
I may have missed it but what kind of shank do y’all use
Leather shank with a double midsole.
Wow, there is a lot of work that goes into making boots! I'd like to see this company offer, 16/17/18 inch tall durable boots!
We offer 6" through 16"! Just select "Customizable Boots" on our boot drop down menu on nicksboots.com :)
@@nicksboots
I called your Customer service number and the representative informed me that your company does not make such 16+ inch tall boots? Please clarify.
@@MrKaido93 That's correct. We only make them up to 16''.
@@nicksboots
Thank you for the clarification.
The 16 inchers sound like a sturdy well made boot possibly also as a Snake Boot.
💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥 👢 NICKS 👌
Yep , good ol American made boots , like the Grateful Dead said “ built to last “
Congrats to everyone who is early And who found this comment 👏 ❤
Congrats you got my reply!
Thanks
Curious….the woman sewing at 5:23. Is she wearing that mask with padding because if talcum or baby powder? She has some thick padding in that mask. ❤ at 10:36 did you see how neat and uniformed that work bench is? ❤❤❤❤❤ though each to their own, I don’t understand how other craft people work with chaos all over the place, looking for tools, running around to find a replacement because they can’t find the original and then finding it once they return to the table. 😂 whoever set the guidelines at Nicks for proper preparation, I tip my hat to them. 😊
At the beginning, when the young gal is dressing all the edges of the leather with that spinning wheel machine....
What exactly is that for, and what does that do for the leather?
*2:12** - **3:20** here? That's a skiving machine. It removes excess material, usually along the edges of each leather piece. It bevels the edges of the parts that will be turned over and glued, to form a finished smooth flat edge. Skiving reduces the thickness of the leather edges, making it more pliable and flexible. This allows the trimmer to ease the leather round corners and curvature with a smooth finish. Skiving is usually performed on the "flesh" fuzzy side of a piece of leather rather than the "finished" smoother side.*
nice
يسلم كل شخص له يد في تصنيع هذا الحذاء لكن لي تعليق الا يوجد حشو (اساتون) في الكعب والبومبيه
This place must go through A LOT of contact cement.
*Holds them well together too!*
incredible process!
Wondering why they still use metal nails in Lineman boots, aren't lineman come in very close contact with electricity and electricity + metal is not a good combo for human body?
The metal doesn't connect with the human body nor with any electricity.
@@Totemparadox hmmm lineman does work closely with electricity, no?
and the clinged nails used does come in very close with the wearers' feet. Also leather is not a true electrical dampener/barrier.
@@newinspiration2108 Damn I guess the boots are absolute garbage then and any lineman who uses them is an idiot.
If your close enough to arc on your boot nail. Then your already dead.
Good thought though. But wont matter. @newinspiration2108
Can you get these with a double steel shank.
Nicks doesn't offer steel shanks. Only double leather midsole.
@@Totemparadoxwhich ones do you prefer ? Steel or leather ?
@@DOrellana7 I don't really care one way or another. Both have done their jobs in my use.
@@Totemparadox alright I wasn’t hesitant cause, I thought leather shanks are not as good
what heel style is this? doesn't look like a logger and not a cuban.
I wondering that too. The heel on these boots look good.
@@lancecowburn1693 yea, its not a blocky square heel either.
Looks like a block heel.
@@Totemparadox block is square. this heel had a slight undercut. not curved like a logger and not a straight undercut like a cuban.
@@jamrogjan1509 You are correct. I looked at their website and it's just the standard way their lineman heels are made. Maybe it has a name, but it also might not.
@19:53 it appears the 'wood foot' you used to form the boot top was removed, HOW??, as you pritty surely nailed the whole top half to it!!, and don't show us when, or how it was removed, did you machine it out?, as you obviously could NOT just pull it.
It is in fact just pulled out. The nails don't penetrate the mold AKA the last. The last has a metal bottom that the nails hit and turn around creating a hook. Then the last is just pulled out.
I wish I could afford the moc toe u guys make it looks amazing I’m truest in love with a pair of boots size 12
Those screws, won't they hurt the person wearing these boots
If they did, would anyone buy these? Think for a moment. Do people buy cars that don't have seats?
I have always wondered what on Earth could be making that loud foghorn type of noise that can frequently be heard in the background of so many of these videos.
Just after the 18:00 mark, it almost seems as if that is the machine making the noise, but only because the noise is the loudest that I have ever heard it.
The foghorn sound is not in the background, but the sound does not match what the machine tool appears to be doing.
master cfratman
New guy in background wearing Nike shoes.....that can't be good for business.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
As much as I love my boots, jackets and gloves I still think leather or suede look better on animals.
👍👍👍
These people’s hands must hurt after work. I’m quite sure their hands take a beating manipulating that stiff leather all day.
$300 bucks you get a bunch of nails and screw pointing at your feet
They're $550 at least and if you don't like screws and nails you can screw off.
You obviously don't know how shoes/boots (well the better ones) are made. Many use nails, not so many use actual screws.
You ever heard of a Clinch nail? The point of the nail hits the metal shoe last when they are pounding them in and it bends over like a horseshoe. You hardly feel them if at all after the boot breaks in ! Yes I own a pair of builder pros they are the best ! They run $ 545 to $ 600 plus with customizations . Save up and get a pair instead of being salty !
👍👍👍🇲🇦
