With the prezzie season coming up, I've been looking at a new pair of boots and on Saturday I tried on a pair of Le Chameau Mouflon boots. Unfortunately, they felt (especially with thick socks on) a tiny bit too short and a tiny bit too narrow (I've got quite wide, flat feet). I tried the next size up, but my feet literally rattled around inside!
Has anyone else had this problem and found any other make of boots slightly more generous in size? I 'could' try to put up with it and hope as they soften that they will be more comfortable, but those are the 2 places that boots tend to have the least give, and if I'm spending £175 on them, I don't want to find in a few months time that I can only wear them for a couple of hours before they get too sore.
I was thinking of trying Lowa Mountain GTX (but to be honest would prefer brown to black boots) or Meindl Dovre Extreme (but they are a little to high for my liking). Also I don't know of any local stockists of these two boots making it tricky to try them!
