I have not only very wide feet, but very wide in the 'toe box' area. This has always been a hurdle for me with regard to buying footwear. I have searched long and hard, returning many desirable prospects that just did not properly fit. The other problem is that I am looking for something more feasible (as I can be hard on footwear) and simply can't afford to annually replace $250-and-up footwear. Is there anything out there to foot the bill (no pun intended)?Finally, I found a boot that appears to be well made with ample wideness (where I most need it), admirable amenities and the right height all at a reasonable price (under $100)! I preferred something insulated for cold weather and these have Thinsulate lining as well. Spent a long day in the cold and between the boots and wool socks, my feet were very warm and comfortable. They also have decent traction and so far I am very happy with them.So far, so good. Time will tell more as I have only used them a dozen times or so, but for now they are exactly what I was looking for: A pair of functional, well-fitting boots at an attractive price.
