My new Prospectors are here. The size is wrong (EE instead of E) and the uppers are wrong (smooth/roughout instead of all roughout), but boy are they BEAUTIFUL!

I'm actually happy about the smooth/roughout mistake, as it's an option I went back and forth on multiple times. However, the extra width has me concerned. Toe and ball room feel pretty good (more than enough room and my right pinky toe only lightly touches the side), but my heel feels a bit loose and that worries me. Looking for opinions on heel width from you guys while I wait to hear back from Nicks CS and contemplate a return/exchange. This is my first pair of Nicks and have no reference for fit.

Thanks folks!

If you've worn work boots before, you should know if this pair of Nicks fits
When standing or taking steps if the ball (widest part) of your foot is not touching the interior of the boot, the size width is too wide for you.

Those w&c dark brown renegades are my favorite of the bunch. Thought I wanted the natty double stuffed but those dark browns got me reconsidering.

That's a real nice collection, you definitely like those Renegades. W&Cs are particularly eye-catching 👍.

How long have you been in the Nick's game, if you don't mind me asking?

@Nicks Boots Shuyler glad to finally see Nicks announce the trades boots program. Will more boots be added? Also where can I get Information as far as the discounts and things?
I’m a UA local 32 apprentice and would love to take advantage but those wedge soles ruined my feet. I live in my builder pros. So will we see a builder pro variant added to the trades program? Maybe I’ll get me a veg tan pair finally!? Haha

Yeah for sure, it’s something we are working through and appreciate the feedback. I’ll let the team know.

@Nicks Boots Shuyler any chance you guys can go back to uploading the podcasts to Spotify? I used to listen a lot but now they seem to be only YouTube and it’s harder for me to listen. Thanks!!
