Those are very nice! I've considered White's boots before, look quite similar. What are they lined with? (Hoping they are un-lined leather). Soft toe I'm assuming? Thanks -- Randy

Yes, White's and Nicks are very similar. If i'm not mistaken i think Nick used to work at White's so i've heard I could be wrong. They are not lined, just how you hoped. Yes, soft toe, as i bought these for casual wearing. I have a pair of the Hotshots that i used daily for work, seriously tough boots.

Ok I'm thinking about them for sure. I'm typically about a 11.5 - 12 however have worn a 12.5 before as well. D with, as long as not too wide I may indeed be very interested. Thank you again...Randy

I've been reading that guys are saying Nick's is making better boots than Whites. Even if they're close, that's a huge compliment and I'd not hesitate (waiting to get the Orange Horween Predators) to buy.

I would assume a nice insole can make the fit snug for you. i don't like insoles on white's or Nicks since they both build the high arch, so they're comfortable for me as they are.

Hey, Bud! didn't i sell you some Chippewa engineers a few years ago? we meet in Arroyo Parkway? lol. Yeah man, Nicks are pretty much up there. I would go as far as saying way better than Wesco, very similar to White's. White's was sold to to an Asian market now, but I think they will still keep producing them in Spokane WA, quality may decrease in the near future for White's.

Holy hell! yeah, sorry I didn't remember...still have those boots!
What are your thoughts on the sizing of the Nicks? Close to getting those Predators in the "Stock" store.
Hope you're well! Good luck with the sale.

haha, no worries i have good long term memory and such a bad short term memory, lol. Idk it's a bit hard to say, when i bought these i also purchased a pair of their renegades in a size 12.5, they fit very well with thick socks, these feel the same. my 12.5 hot shots feel huge, like almost a 13 on the bigger side. if you wear a 13 in chips ill stick with 12.5 on nicks, some 12 may even fit ya.
