You're right.  Nick's does make an engineer boot.  Their website lists the Engineer Boot 55E and Renegade Boot 55E.  Their Instagram feed shows much more savory engineer boots than ones available on their webstore.  The feed also shows leather sources such as Seidel and Horween.

Do Nick's engineers still have that odd instep strap?

Here is a recent photo of my Wesco engineer boots in brown: MP, #705 sole, double midsole, Okuyama brass roller buckles.

Those Wesco's look great!  As does the modified sea bag.  I have a very similar modified sea bag I carry daily.  Perhaps we need a bag thread?
Sell me your Mister Freedom stuff. :)

I started one not too long ago, it needs love!
I make things out of leather.

How easy is it to swap at the buckles? Can your cobbler do it?

Swapping buckles is not that difficult a project. I posted my process a while back on my blog
