Frustration trying to find boots

[sealbeam]

5e feet

A heart felt THANK YOU for all the comments and suggestions. Many were new leads.

The Hathorn Ranch Packers I bought 10 to 12 years ago from Whites were custom made, i.e., they selected the lasts that most closely fit my foot outline, and so were a perfect fit for width and length. But they never laced up uniformly close which I finally have figured out is because of my high arch. In spite of that they have absolutely been the most comfortable boots I have EVER had on my feet. The thought of getting a pair of boots that would be "oh, so comfortable" in all three dimensions from a company that has a good reputation is just too irresistible! hyea: Plus, they're truly American made, not just American assembled!:yes:

For a look at who Wesco is and how they operate watch this company promo video.

If all goes well I will have them in time to wear to Spyderfest! :yes:

Try looking at military boot manufacturers.

Here's one 8EEE Gore-Tex boot, found at U.S. Cavalry. I don't know how to address your arch problem, though. A drop-in support?

Two aspects of that boot make me nix it. I want unlined leather and no laces. The high arch isn't a problem on the underside of my feet, it's how it affects the fit of the boot on the top of my foot.

I like Zappos. Free shipping each way. Had them ship me 5 pair of boots. Shipped 4 pair back. All at their expense, never left the house. :thumbup: Tom
