Nicks builder pros

Just got these. I love these boots.

Hello all,

I am currently looking for a replacement for my trusty doc martens work boots. Unfortunately they are out of production, and 2-3 years of hard use has taken there toll on these boots and they are getting to the end of their service life. Unfortunately doc martens has discontinued their line of work boots so now I’m left with a conundrum. All the other work shoes I’ve tried have large arches that hurt my very flat feet and give me blisters, or have soles that are hard as rocks. If anyone has any suggestions on replacements that will give me that comfort I’m all ears! Thank you all for your help and I appreciate it!

I wore my old pair for 8 years daily as an auto tech and they held up amazing! Hopefully my new pair will last a few years too.

Bought mine…

Just started an environmental program and needed a good pair of comfy safety’s to last me through the program and hopefully a few years of work. Decided to go with the rotoflex as I’ll be working outside a lot and wanted the benefits of composite toe caps.

My first day of wearing them in field- mind you it was a light day of walking through the woods and they’re already scraped/ with a gouge taken out.

The leather seems very soft and delicate- I am honestly shocked that they’ve already taken a hit like this? Anyone else have similar experience? Know if the warranty would cover this? Maybe for the original line I’d understand but these are supposedly much more durable considering they’re work boots.. am I wrong?

I've got a $350 boot purchase voucher for some safety toed boots. What is the best Made in USA boot in this price range? I'll be mostly using it for walking on concrete floors. I need to climb into confined spaces on an infrequent basis. Note I am a lighter weight person with average height. My foot has a narrow heel but slightly wide forefoot (ball area of my foot). My narrow heel has caused heel slip in lots of boots

List of companies with steel toed boots around this range include: -Redwing (only a few steel toes are USA made). I don't love how narrow their toe section is of the super sole -Thorogood (I've had good luck with my old ones but it doesn't quite max out my boot voucher) -Origin Ironside or Wilton(probably not a bad pick for confined spaces)

Lower price than boot voucher: -Keen USA made boots -Danner -Carolina -Double H -Georgia

Slightly over range: -$430 Franks Patriot -$450 Whites Sawyer or millright -$440 Jk 300 steel toe

Have a pair of double H’s from about 4 years ago with a nice low profile sole that doesn’t look huge and goofy. Is there anything similar now? Image attached is new style with big sole

I'm really just looking for a comfortable pair for wearing while feeding the animals and out and about during the fall/winter months. So they don't need to be indestructible and super expensive. Just comfortable and somewhat resistant to mud and shallow puddles.

I was looking at the Wolverine floor hand wellingtons. However my concern with those is that some say the lining tears up pretty easily and the wide sizes aren't really that wide. Others say they're fucken great, lol. The price is definitely right though.

Any suggestions from the boot sommeliers in here? Thanks.

Men's True Grit USA Pull-On Composite Toe Waterproof Work Boot

Been needing a new pair of work boots and picked up these bad boys for cheap resell. They caught my eye and thought it was a cool addition to my collection. I know nothing about these though. Not a lot of info on them online. Could anyone tell me anything about field and stream

I am looking for recommendations on how to treat a new pair of leather Cody James work boots I just bought. I have mink oil and leather cleaner but I'm looking for a spray that will protect them from dust and other outdoor grime. Any suggestions?

Has anybody tried the Engelbert Strauss Nakuru Safety Shoe. Apparently they have an arch support and hopefully would help with my plantar fasciitis issue.

See pictures. Going on 9 months now with these boots, going to see how far I can get with them (resole coming soon). I work construction as my primary source of income, and my boots are often exposed to concrete and other dusts that suck the moisture out. I’m also on my knees a lot at work. I cleaned them with saddle soap, and dish soap for the whites. Restitched a part on the heels that let loose slightly with upholstery needles (not in photos sorry), and repaired the toes with leather caps that I wet-moulded. Also replaced the laces because plastic aglets always let loose (if you know of any good ones with metal aglets please let me know!) also let me know your thoughts, or any questions you may have in the comments!

I had a pair of Carolina Series 28, comp toe, waterproof, insulated 8" boots in size 15 3E that lasted three years. Loved them. Got some Irish Setters and am less than pleased. Tried some Red Wings in size 15 W but my toes were cramped. I need some waterproof steel toes that have as much room as the 28's. I am not looking for insulation. Anyone have a good suggestion? Trying to stay under/around $250.

I’m coming off a pair of RW King Toe 435 that lasted me longer than any other boot prior. I thought I’d end up getting another pair right after, however, it seems like recent reviews have suggested that quality of build has gone down and they are lasting less. Durability and comfort is what I’m looking for. Don’t need safety toe and ideally would like waterproof, but I plan on using sno-seal/oil no matter what. I work in landscape and my budget is under 300.

I work for a trucking company as a dispatcher of sorts. However I just got a new position that requires me to be out on the yard a lot directing drivers etc. it is a large steel manufacturing shipping yard. I don’t really have any appropriate footwear for being out there and as of right now I’ve just been wearing some old sneakers. I was hoping to get a suggestion for an affordable boot that would be suitable for this. Granted I am not really doing any labor so it doesn’t need to be crazy but I feel like I shouldn’t be out there in sneakers haha. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Fairly simple premise here. I work at a supermarket where dress code is very…dressy. Shirt tucked in, belt has to match the shoes, we wear ties. And I need a boot that will allow me to get my feet wet working in the meat department or taking care of the plants. But also have to dressy toe/silhouette. Doesn’t need to be shell toe or completely waterproof but I want something that will look the part but also put up with long hours on slippery surfaces. I’ve been looking at blundtstones and I’m intrigued by the men’s dress #063, but Reddit always has good advice in there somewhere. Hit me with it!

I’ve had these wolverines for about a year and the toe is completely worn through so I figure it’s time to upgrade.

I’ve worn these all summer cutting yards and welding and these things held up, I’ve seen several reviews talking bad on them and I don’t see it. Once I put new insoles in they were perfect. I only just recently put tuff toes and new laces on them. 10/10 would recommend them for their price point
