Boots for narrow feet

I have a terrible time finding boot that I can hunt in. I have a very narrow foot and even when I used heavy socks or two pair the boots are still too wide. Any body know where to find some that might work. Thanks for any help.

Have you tried the Dans Frogger boot? I have a narrower foot and it fits me like a glove, and is very comfortable.

How true to size do they run? I wear a 9.5 which just adds to the difficulty when a lot of boots are just in whole size.

I wear a 10 1/2 in most work boots, my Froggers are 10s and fit like they should. I would suggest trying a 9 in your case.

I have thought about trying a pair of womens boots but they would have to be 11 and not too many womens come that large.

i have the same issue, one thing that i always do is put some type of insole in them and makes them fit tighter. i wear aeroheads hunting put some and they make a difference in the fit. i tried a 9 one time was too tight but a 10 with insole worked well. the cheaper lacroose burly with no insulation fit tighter than boots with insulation it appears to me. here are the insoles i use, they are just foam type. i normally replace once a year.

.

Preacher Tom what would you consider your ankle and leg size. If your answer is normal to small I thing the lacrosse burly might be would you need. It is communally called the Grange boot and is the one John Wick sold thousands of. Then everyone legs got bigger and the popularity of this boot went down because they are hard to get off.

If I was you I would call the largest boot store near you and see if they had this boot to try on. Bass Pro or Cabelas also work. You might find another boot there that would work also and then just call Dan's Hunting gear and they can put chaps on them for you.

Like mentioned insoles or the Bama Sock help also. I would try and come as close as possible with a stock boot then if needed an insole. Lots of drug stores now have these machines that you stand on and they recommend a certain insole for your feet due to your pressure points. Might be something to consider.

You might also just try a pair of Bama Socks ! May fix your Problem PLUS i have a feeling you'll like the other benefits of the sock.

Quatro

I think you would be happy with the Quatro boot. .But their sizing is different.I normally wear a 9 in everything but in the Quatro i need a 7.This was a non insulated.The insulated seemed more comfortable but were noticeably heavier.It probably would be a good idea to find a place you could try them on first.
