Insoles/lacing vs Brand - Boot Fit help?

[Trumpkin The Dwarf]

Say what you want about Kenetrek boots but my feet have spent everyday of the last year and a half inside a pair of Hardscrabble hikers that are still stiff and waterproof. I'm hard on boots as I weight 300 pounds and don't treat them nice at all. From the mountains to the concrete the boots just keep going.

This is good to hear! They seemed to fit me well. I didn’t feel like they’d even need much break in.

I’ll 2nd Lathrop and Sons for boot sizing and fitting. A+++ customer service knowledge and advice on how to fix your foot issues.

Maybe I should try L&S for my next purchase. I'm wearing Schnees Granite 200 boots right now. No blisters, but I need a little more padding on the ball of my foot. I'll post separately about that. Good info in the thread.
