I asked the man in the shop which ones were the widest fitting, and he said these were. I suppose not all makes will be exactly the same fit. To get a perfect fitting boot you would have to go to a specialist outdoor shop which measure feet.

I bought a new pr of trail shoes yesterday. My regular shoes are heavy and hard to go on walks in. I wore them last eve while Phil and I went out walking. Amazing difference and I can walk a bit faster. He noticed too. We walk nearly every evening and talk and enjoy the great outdoors! Happy weekend!Grandmabeckyl.blogspothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04362600588981799211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-73756911179266202232016-09-02T23:29:14.669+01:002016-09-02T23:29:14.669+01:00Well done on the walk Ilona and some great photos ...Well done on the walk Ilona and some great photos xJane Reahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02162310024438075843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-83089465862107848202016-09-02T23:23:49.798+01:002016-09-02T23:23:49.798+01:00What a lovely day you've had - thank you for t...What a lovely day you've had - thank you for the photos. What a pretty cottage - it's lovely to see people taking such pride in their property.<br />Yesterday and today the temp has only come up to about 23C which is positively chilly compared to the rest of the summer. I managed a it of walking both days (nothing like your mileage) but it was so nice to be able to enjoy the walk without the blazing heat and humidity.<br />Margie from Torontohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10103835021764804099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-37968328782552595862016-09-02T19:50:05.707+01:002016-09-02T19:50:05.707+01:00That's a great walk, Ilona, and glad the boots...That's a great walk, Ilona, and glad the boots came up to snuff. And 12 miles - that's an heroic distance for me, I can just about manage 2 miles with my flippin' arthritis (it's in my feet as well as elsewhere making walking, regardless of how comfy the boots or shoes are, painful, and this really annoys me!) <br />Love that pretty cottage and the bench with the flowers close by, and what a lovely river view. Mind you, it doesn't look quite as hilly as Torbay - which as you might know, is built on seven hills, like Rome - so maybe I could manage a mile or two more if I lived in your area!<br />Margaret P galanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14190356279359463949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-80358004756309987082016-09-02T19:43:29.071+01:002016-09-02T19:43:29.071+01:00What a lovely walk you had and thank you for the l...What a lovely walk you had and thank you for the lovely photos.

Is it dedicated to someone perhaps and that family comes and takes care of it?<br /><br />Thank you for sharing. You earned your meal that you had previously put in the freezer.

I've had mine for six years now and looking at them I think I will have them for at least another six. I can't even guess how many miles I've walked in them altogether.

I'd be interested to know Ilona, if the boots you bought were a wide fitting pair? (By that I mean EE or wider?) Or are they just the usual fit that comes a bit wider than a normal fit? Because they look nice, and I have the same problem as you with bunions so I really need a wide fit and you've convinced me that these are the boots I need!
