Are Steel Toed Required

I have a very difficult time finding shoes that fit. I have an extra wide toe box and wear a size 14 and my right foot is about a quarter size larger than my left. Getting boots in the Air Force was hilarious. They had to special make me 3 pairs before I got one that didn’t cause pain. Eventually I found a company selling some online that worked out great, but they only sold those boots for one year. I can’t just walk into any shoe store and get a great fitting pair of shoes or boots. Some stores yes, but more and more of those are closing and going online. Foot wear is a real problem for me and most likely will be my whole life.

 

Redwing? Are you tall enough to be a center for the Wisconsin Badgers?

Personally get size 15. The toe box is size dependant, not wide dependant. 14 /15s right here.

 

Try these guys. West Coast Shoe Company
They're spendy and you have to wait awhile for them but once you get a pair of custom made boots you'll never be happy with anything else.
I lost part of my left foot to a chain saw when I was a kid and I've had custom made boots ever since. Wesco is about the best I've ever had.

 

I wish I was tall enough to be their center but no I’m 6 -3 just have these fat feet that no one makes shoes for. New balance has some styles of shoes that fit pretty good but boots are tough to come by. A non wide boot I couldn’t even get my foot into it for the most part.

 

Sorry to hear about your foot. Thanks for the recommendation, I’ve never tried these guys or heard of them even. I’ll definitely check it out. Good boots are worth their weight in gold.

 

Try a pair of 15 wide???? Wear extra socks if it's loose?

 

I can fit into a 14 wide, the problem is most squeeze my toes. I have a pair not that fit ok. They aren’t perfect but I can wear them for a full day and it’s not too bad. Wouldn’t want to wear them for more than a week tho, they mostly sit under the bunk now.

 

Well knowing what I know that 15s will have a larger toe box, it might be better.
