canuckcarver Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 my boots are a mondo 30 due to wide feet but my foot is only around a 28 or so in length. So i got lots of real estate in there. now my question is, would wearing a boot to large affect the abiltity to turn or get a pain in the knee? keep in mind there is no heel lift or over hang on toe or heel and i dont move around in the boot. -marco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 do you have thermo liners in these boots? You may find as they pack out (and they will) over time that the fit of your boot gets sloppy. If it's possible, I would consider smaller boots and going to a boot fitter to get the shell punched out to accomodate your wide foot. It is amazing what boot fitting can accomplish with a good foot bed and a heat gun. I usually wear a size 10 street shoe and my boots are size 26 (that's an eight I think).

zoltan Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 Yeah, sell those boots, buy the right size, and get them blown out to fit your feet. Too big boots suck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gtanner Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 Get them checked in and around TO. There are a few good shops around that could check out your options for you before you go and sell them. Check in with Chris Hougton (sp?) on this board. He's down by Highway 7 in the west and may be able to provide some advice on where to go. From my memory, I'd recommend Senegal's in Newmarket/Aurora, but there may be better ones out there. Good luck, Gord Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuckcarver Posted December 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 yup! after another painful experience at blue, i went to squire johns and Kenmark and priced out a nice pair of head stratos pro. kenmark was almost $90 cheaper AND they included the fitting.
