Description

Vegetable-Tanned Leather Insoles – 5–6oz Full-Grain

Protect your boots from the inside out.

These 5–6oz vegetable-tanned leather insoles are designed for those who want the comfort and benefits of leather without taking up too much space inside their boots. Built for durability, comfort, and longevity, both for you and your boots, this thinner version provides the same protection for your built-in insole while maintaining a lower profile fit.

Your boots’ vegetable-tanned insole is one of their best features, but over time, sweat and daily wear can dry it out and break it down. Adding a replaceable leather insole creates a protective layer between your foot and the original footbed, helping your boots last longer and delaying the need for a rebuild.

Cut from American-tanned, full-grain hides, these insoles naturally wick moisture, resist odor, and help prevent bacteria and irritation. Perfect for slightly snug boots, summer wear, or anyone wanting a thinner leather option. Trim-to-fit each pair yourself for a truly custom feel.

Features:

  • Material: American-tanned 5–6oz vegetable-tanned full-grain leather

  • Fit: Trim-to-fit for personalized comfort

  • Low Profile: Thinner design takes up less space in your boots

  • Durability: Helps protect and extend the life of your boots’ built-in insole

  • Breathable: Naturally moisture-wicking and odor-resistant

  • Unique: Natural hide variations make every pair one of a kind

Practical, sustainable, and built to last, these lightweight insoles combine traditional craftsmanship with everyday function to help your boots go the distance.

Trimming or adjustments may need to be taken by the end user before proper installation.

Bought these to try in a pair of brand new Danner hunting boots

Bought these to try in a pair of brand new Danner hunting boots. Wore them about 200 hours now and they work great, makes the boots feel more comfortable

The insoles are fantastic and very effective

The insoles are fantastic and very effective. I had no idea and unfortunately i purchased a pair of standard brown leather insoles before i received the veg tan and wow what a difference!

I love my Nick’s insoles

I love my Nick’s insoles. They take up very little volume, molded quickly to my foot and provide an extremely comfortable footbed.

Great insoles for the price

Great insoles for the price. I bought these to replace the insoles in my Quoddy boat shoes and they have been great. Molded to my foot and very durable.

A Simple Upgrade That Makes a Real Difference

These veg-tan leather insoles are a perfect complement to a pair of Nick’s Boots.

The leather is thick, high quality, and beautifully finished. They mold to your feet over time, adding another layer of comfort without compromising the fit of the boots.

I especially appreciate that they are made from natural vegetable-tanned leather. They help manage moisture, feel great underfoot, and maintain the premium, handcrafted character that makes Nick’s products stand out.

If you’re ordering a pair of Nick’s Boots, I highly recommend adding these insoles. It’s a simple upgrade that noticeably improves the overall experience.

Veg Tan thin insole is a good idea

Veg Tan insole, thin, is great to have as a nearly no change to sizing and at the same time providing protection to the inside of the boot. Thanks Nicks!

Great quality and very surprised by the increased comfort

Great quality and very surprised by the increased comfort. I ordered two pairs (one thick and one thin) and put them in two pairs of boots that were a bit loose. This fixed the fit issues and the increased comfort was an added bonus.

Great Insoles!!

I love the insoles! They give me just a little extra cushion while I’m breaking in my hand crafted boots; while preserving the built-in insole.
