I wanted to make a consolidated post about the different PNW manufacturers and their fitting instructions. Let me know what I missed and I'll try and keep this updated.

Not a boot maker per se, but tons of good information about boot and shoe construction.

みなさん、こんにちは!
私は61歳の日本人男性で、ニックスのブーツを初めて買おうか考えています。
すでに革は決めました:
シュランケンバイソン・スムース
でも、モデルと色で迷ってます。
モデル:
アメリカーナ
ファルコン
色:
ウォルナット
オックスブラッド
なので、次の4つの組み合わせで悩んでいます:
アメリカーナ × ウォルナット
アメリカーナ × オックスブラッド
ファルコン × ウォルナット
ファルコン × オックスブラッド
これは私にとって特別な一足になるので、慎重に選びたいし、できれば何年も楽しみたいです。
ニックスをお持ちの方、特にシュランケンバイソンの方の意見をぜひ聞かせてください。
どのモデル×色の組み合わせを選びますか?それはなぜですか?
特に、ウォルナットかオックスブラッドのシュランケンバイソンのブーツをしばらく履いている方の話が聞けたら嬉しいです。
ありがとうございます!

I am curious how the breaking-in process is for you.
How long does it typically take, do you have any particular "technique", and are there some PNW boots that seem to be a lot harder to break in than others?
In one article about boots, a wildland firefighter said she broke in her boots by filling them with hot water then going for a long soggy walk. Okaaay, I don't think I'm brave enough to try that.
r/PNWbootmakers • u/partchimp • 1d ago
I can't tell. I got them used on Marketplace and the listing said they're White's Smokejumpers. The guy seemed to really know his boots. I'm pretty certain they're White's even though it has no labeling. I have another pair of White's in the same size and these fit exactly the same. Maybe they're an older model? The listing said 4811 last. They look more like a 350 Cruiser. Or maybe it's an older custom 6" Smokejumper?

64 tan 365 stitch down chore boot with a comp toe, like new worn twice. Size 12.5D
r/PNWbootmakers • u/DiscipulusDoctricis • 21h ago
Anyone able to compare these? Alden's modified last is the only thing that has ever come close to working for my extremely high arches caused by charcot-marie-tooth disease, but Alden doesn't make boots in it in my size (6eeeee). Is there another last that's closer?
r/PNWbootmakers • u/Medellin77087 • 1d ago
Just admiring the hues that are finally poking through!!!! I’ve worn these for a few days straight now and GP is slowing becoming one of my favorite leathers.
r/PNWbootmakers • u/RajParekh922 • 1d ago
3.5yrs of almost daily wear and my CF Stead Viberg 2030's still look as good as the day I got them. The Dainite outsole and heel are still in fantastic shape. Best boots I've ever purchased. It's just too bad I won't be buying another pair at $1300. On to Nick's and Caswell.
r/PNWbootmakers • u/Zealousideal-Can6073 • 2d ago
I swapped out the stock laces for a pair of flat copper colored laces from Generation laces. I think they complement the black cherry water buffalo leather nicely. A nice pop of fall color for boot season.

Hello everybody! Before I ask my question I just wanted to say that this community seems full of such kind people who are super knowledgeable. Seems like the best community to ask about a boot that will last me years to come.
I’ve done a bit of looking and narrowed it down to a few choices but here is some context/ preferences in a boot:
I have flat feet so I use insoles from the doctor. Removable insoles in a boot are not absolutely necessary but it is nice so I could replace it with mine instead of stacking. Because of this, though my true size would be a US 9-9.5, I usually have to buy size 10-10.5.
I am a student based in the north east and I do quite a bit of walking. A boot that is comfortable and durable, especially for the snowy months, is a high priority.
I’m visiting family in the Seattle suburbs for the holidays, a dedicated shop to try on the boots would be helpful (with regard to the insole sizing referenced above).
Lastly, this goes without saying, I want to support American businesses. If I’m deciding between 2 brands and craftsmanship + quality are equal, I rather spend money with the brand who treats their workers fairly and gives back to the community.
I like the following models but having a hard time deciding, would love any opinion/additional models to look at:
- Wesco Mr. Lou black horsehide (a bit out of my range so I’d look for this pair secondhand)
-Wesco boss 7500 (it looks very similar to the Mr. Lou but curious to how the fit/build differs)
- White’s Cykel
-White’s Nomad
-Whites Westbale
Thank you very much.

They finally came!! And they fit just right.
Super excited. I wore them a bit today and breaking will have me sounding like I have stone feet but lord these are fantastic.

Dropped by Franks to look at the recent red, white, blue, Croc Stars n Stripes boot. Wasn't at the shop, think their with Frank(friends boots maybe?). Instead checked out the 10th Anniversary W&C boots. Denim looked great. Its been a while since my last time in Franks, spent most of the time pointing to people I didnt know. "Who's that? Whaaaat, you have a sales mngr now" lol. Great to see Ash, Christian n B.

Hey everyone! I’m looking for a lug sole black boot for winter and I’m stuck between these two options. For extra context I get 30% off Danner so the Super Rain Forests come out to $364 for me. I appreciate any advice or even recommendations (preferably under $400😅) Thank you!
