I purchased my boots from you last fall, I’ve been into the store twice about the squeak both times I was told to oil it. They were squeaking from the moment I put them on. I’ve had them on my feet for a year now I have done tons of different remedies. The other pair of boots I bought from you no problems. A cobbler in Spokane told me that the glue most likely separated between the two layers of leather, if not between the leather and the rubber and that’s what’s causing the squeak.

My NICKS are just at 1 yr old and worn daily in dry ground climate. I take excellent care of them and overall satisfied though expensive. Then the SQUEAK comes and not only annoys me, but other that have to hear it. It’s definitely an insole issue and floor surface is not relevant. I can live with the SQUEAK, but I definitely do not promote the fact that I paid good money for that squeak as it’s embarrassing.

I’ve never had a boot with a squeaky sole. Most of my squeaking is temporary and seems to come from the kiltie breaking in and shifting its position.

My Nicks squeak so loud I don't wear them anymore... and it's only 1 boot that does it. Really sad for a pair of high-end custom boots to just sit in my closet. I reached out to Nicks and was told it was normal, just wear them and stop being a baby. :/ None of my other leather boots have ever made as much noise.

That's the reason why many bootmakers use a rubber midsole or some kind of textile or paper between the insole and midsole or outsole. Leather against leather is gonna squeak almost guarranteed.

@@rolle820 you're probably correct. The one thing I'll emphasize is that one boot squeaks like an old rusty door, the other is as quiet as my cat stalking a mouse. It's a shame... it really turns me off wearing the boots, especially given the large amount of money and time spent getting them.

The reason I haven't bought the Gamebreaker is because I'm afraid of squeaking. Have you taken any extra precautions to ensure that boot in particular is quiet?

I have a pair of Drew's that started squeaking (loud) about a couple months into wearing them daily (no water) once they were fully broken in. Reached out to them, and was told that they'd probably need a full rebuild, and would cost me about as much as I paid for them, so now they're collecting dust in my closet.

My BuilderPros developed a horrible squeak in the ball of the foot. Poured some warm Leather Honey inside the boot and let it sit for 24hrs. Squeak is gone and the boots are wearable again.

Disingenuous. If the squeak originates at the leather shank or forefoot area from 2 pieces of leather moving against one another, there is absolutely NOTHING that will fix it outside of a resole.

Nick's boots are low quality and the 2 pairs I've purchased from them throughout the years squeak like crazy. Much happier with my Blundstone boots that were a FRACTION of the price and did not have any "hand made" quirks (which are really QC issues posing as hand made charm).

When you see something that prominently displays something leather, a jacket, boots, pants, whatever, the sound inevitably follows. The squeak, to me, is an iconic part of wearing leather to begin with. For me, it’s cool and interesting and I miss it when it goes away. Don’t be embarrassed by the squeak of an expensive shoe. Sound off proudly.
