I've just about given up on finding a pair hiking boots for the winter. I wear trail runners as much as I can, but when it's cold slushy snow I like to have boots. I usually would wear the same boots I wear for work. Irish setter wingshooters (9 inch tall...yeah I know). But I wanted to lighten the load.
For the past 6 months I have tried every boot at the local REI. My problem is WIDE feet. Especially toe box. Asolo, vasque, salomon, etc. All to narrow. Keen foot bed felt the best but the mid height hurt my ankle area when flexing my foot. Should I just stick with my 2 lb 2 oz boot. On the upside the are waterproof. I have been in ankle deep water pouring concrete for months without leaks. Short of a custom boot, have any ideas?
