Schnee Beartooth boots wide enough?

[Osceola]

Living in the Midwest, certain brands of boots are not to be found including the Beartooth boot. I have a very wide front toe area and I heard even ordering a wide they still run tight.

If you have really wide feet you understand my dilemma. When you can find really wide fronts quite often they’ve made the heel too wide.

Any firsthand experience with the Beartooth boots as far as my question is concerned?

Any recommendations for a quality boot that tends to run wider than most?

I wear a standard width in the Beartooth and frequently need a wide in other brands. Schnee's has probably one of the very best customer service departments I've ever worked with. If you're interested in the boots I'd give them a call and talk to them directly. It might cost you some on shipping, but I'd be willing to bet they would work with you to get the right boot and return it if needed.

I tried them in the wides, still not enough for me. . They do have excellent customer service so worth a try.

That seems to be what I’ve been hearing from my research. I’m going to give them a call today and discuss my concerns.

Gave them a call. Went well and ordered two different sizes to try out.

Sounds like you're going to find out for yourself, but maybe this helps someone else.

I think it depends where your feet are wide. Mine are wide at the ball of my feet and their wides fit me well. I think the comments you've heard are due to the way they round in at the toe. I've got a pair in 10.5W that fit and have been awesome, but they can pinch a bit in the toe box on steep downhills. I just got a pair of 11W in the 200g version that seem like they might be a bit better.

I wear brooks adrenalins in 10.5W for reference.

I might be in luck and hoping so. My foot structure is like yours. Wider across the ball of my foot area than my toes. Not a lot but a little. Ordered the Granite 200 mg as their recommendation.

I have a wide, flat foot to preface this. When searching for a boot I did order a pair of Beartooth’s in wide from Schnee’s to ship to my house. Unfortunately, they were still too narrow so I had to send them back. I ultimately went with Crispi’s in wide and they are perfect.

Good luck.

Which Crispi did you go with?

Nevadas. Got size 10EE and they’re perfect. I’ve put literally hundreds of miles on them and never thought twice about my feet. When these finally give in, I’ll buy another pair without hesitation.
