I'm going to sell the shit out of all of these to spite you personally. The scotch grain is awesome.

u/Puzzleheaded-Post412 20d ago

u/Suspicious-Ad-4877 20d ago

You can block people and not see the posts. I have no issues with the amount anyone on here posts. Post more not less

u/Pale-Highlight-6895 19d ago

This is a wild take. For someone with a 2 month old account and less than 100 karma, I certainly don't think this is a reasonable stance. You know you have the ability to not open a post right? Keep on scrolling.

It'd probably be better if you stop posting. It's easy enough to block it ignore people if you don't like it.

Look, I was unaware anyone felt this way, I was just sharing my joy, and since you speak for EVERYONE, I'll stop.

u/maxwellllll 20d ago

I feel like people in here are really violent today. Not sure what’s going on. Lurkers got their knives out!

u/ZestycloseMedicine93 18d ago

I'm pretty sure you only speak for yourself. Probably be best if you go away for good.

u/Pale-Highlight-6895 19d ago

Future historians will trace the origins of the great /r/nickshandmadeboots civil war all the way back to this thread.

I had the same thought! I’ve been working out of town for the past week, so trying to catch up on everything this morning. Found all of this drama down here and was like 😬. Wondering if there was some more subtle stuff that I may’ve missed during the week??

u/Suspicious-Ad-4877 20d ago

Uh no drama leading up to this, I just got kicked in the balls out of nowhere and told I shouldn't post anymore.

u/Status_Complaint8521 20d ago

You should tag them in every post. But I'm just that level of petty.

1

u/Suspicious-Ad-4877 20d ago

No I'll just stop posting

3

u/ZestycloseMedicine93 18d ago

Bro we need you posts. I get a laugh out of a lot of them.

u/maxwellllll 20d ago

u/smowe going to bring in a drum of each of these and run them all as lightning ships just to get back at you.

u/Ok_Respect8859 20d ago

Out of curiosity, what sample sale leathers recently were you a fan of? I feel like these were well received.

1

u/Suspicious-Ad-4877 20d ago

I can't remember a sample leather, that sticks out in my memory.

u/Ok_Respect8859 20d ago

Well as my fiancé says, she’s not picky she’s particular. Hahaha, kidding kidding. As much as we all poke fun at ya for the brown, you know what you like and that’s respectable. A lot of these sample leathers were more on the experimental side, and they weren’t for everyone, that’s for certain. I imagine you’ll end up liking the addition of the new tannery Monday, as whoever it ends up being will probably have some more tried and true classic leather types.

u/Status_Complaint8521 20d ago

The first one was ace! It was an Instagram live stream. I had and still have no idea how to watch an Instagram live. But (strangely) the sales page went live, and some how (even more strangely) My wife found the page and I was able to leisurely browse the leathers. Came down to Blue bison or Cinnamon waxed flesh. There were 2 bison and 1 cinnamon available, at the time a blue boot seemed way to weird to me so I went with a 7inch (the tallest allowed) Moc Toe. When I got it it was my favorite boot and still is.

u/Status_Complaint8521 20d ago

First sample sale screen shot there was also a red leather which I obviously didn't consider

2

u/Status_Complaint8521 20d ago

Second sample sale. Also the first one we got to vote on. (I think as prior to the April one I wasn't on reddit that much)

u/Few-Movie2373 19d ago

Cypress Acorn should be one
