WIDE FEET, SORE FEET ANYONE?!

[chindits]

All the wide toe box shoes I have used seem to provide ample room on the big toe side of the shoe, but not so much on the small toe side of the shoe. This has been my experience with even wide toe box reputed trail running shoes such as topo and zero shoes. I know I have flat feet, but at 60 years old I don’t think that’s changing.
On the boot side of the house I have used crispi, zamberlan and lowa, but none of them seem to have been as accommodating as my old issued Belleville’s.

This could be because of the foot you have or even the size that you are selecting. I'm going to send you a DM.

I have a set of your mountain hunters in 13 superwide, do they need a break in period? I find them a bit tight, and the Lowa wides to be just as "wide", the Lowa's are a 14w.

Whats the main issue for blisters on the heel? I wear keen work boots that have never given my feet any issues. I bought a pair of crispi lapponia III, while comfy at the local store, they reck my heels on any trip over 2 miles unless i tape them. I will say feet sweat all the time and i haven't really found a sock that works really good.

Great question!!!

I always say there's a reason why something is happening. This issue, in a lot of cases, is a combination of those reasons. Contributing factors: Wrong boot for the foot/anatomy, Incorrect sizing, Irregularity of Calcanus/heel bone, causes mom and dad i.e.. Hereditary. or prolong wearing of the wrong heel height in a boot or shoe.

As you can see it can be a lot. I'm going to shoot you a DM and if you want to dive into your reason more we can...

Please make an American made, high quality, durable, leather, zero drop barefoot style hunting boot. No more foot casts please. They suck.

This!
