Boots with wider Forefoot area

[Luked]

I run Lowa Tibets now and like them, but I'm looking to try some other boots this year. Which brads in your guys' experience run a little wider at the forefoot area.
I have a fairly narrow heel area but a wider forefoot. And don't want to cramp the front of the boot

Meindl comfort fit hunter. Their boot last is specifically designed for a wider toe box. Just be sure to get the comfort series. Almost no break in time required as well. Price is about $100 cheaper or more than other brand name boots. I’ve used Meindl boots now for over 16 years.

I have a pair of these on order because I have similar feet. I’ll post my impressions once a get a few miles on them. Right now the issue seems to be getting them. I ordered through some random dealer on Amazon that said they were in stock. Now, 3 weeks after I ordered them, they are saying they are a special order thing.

I had this same issue, and Crispi Kenai and Nevada in Wide are the ultimate fit for me.

How are the crispi summits toe width wise?

Also look at the Han Wag Banks SF Extra GTX. Rogers has some on sale right now depending on your size.

As I type I have the Han Wag on my left foot and Meindl Comfort Fit hiker on the right. Cannot decide..

Banks SF Extra GTX Boots

Boots that rub at the front sides are often just too narrow at this area. Buy the Hanwag Banks SF Extra GTX Boots and other great Hanwag products at Rogers Sporting Goods!

I would say the HanWags

The Hanwag Ancash II and all the other boots built on that last seem to be discontinued but are still up on the Hanwag website. I ordered a pair through Amazon when they said they were in stock. The order said preparing to ship for 3 weeks and was suddenly cancelled by the shipper last night. I can’t find a pair in my size anywhere online.

guidefitter and Gohunt still have some sizings

its end if year for Hanwag so beating they only make a run once a year.

You could try Vivo or one of the other minimalist boots. They have wide toe boxes, but they are constructed differently in other ways from “normal” boots.
