 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi,
Male requires seriously wide boots (G minimum preferably H). Forefoot 115mm (yes 115mm!!), I can cope with 112mm if need be, UK footsize an 8 but will stretch to 8.5 for the right boot. My Tecnicas are already stretched beyond tolerance (I had to promise the guy in a shop in the Alps who was stretching them every day last year that it was ok if he wrecked them!)
Pronation also a extreme. Boy am I fun to go shoe shopping with...
Any advice on model brand and location ( I am in Hants but Berks and Wilts are options)
Thanks in advance...

allinsona, I have wide feet (think they've been flattened by the other wide areas of my body!)  Try Nordica's, they usually tend to be roomy at the front IME

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Nordicas do look a good bet.
I do not get contact with the snow and boot. I should probably post a picture of my hobbit like left foot...

I have very wide feet and after trying on a lot of cheap and very expensive boots, the most comfortable by far were the Nordica Easymove 10s. Perhaps not the best boot on the market, but certainly for a dream for my feet. I rented some boots last winter and was half way down a slope when I coulddn't take the pain any more and had to walk down and change them for a wider pair !!! I have worn these for hours and not felt a thing....
Other Nordica models seemed to be wider too...

Out of interest, how is the scale of different foot widths measured and defined A-H etc defined - I couldn't find a clear answer to that after some googling...?
