Hi Guys,

I have tried on a few different boots but cannot find one that is comfortable.

I am a UK size 10.5 width E.

Can anyone recommend motorcycle boots that have a wide fitting or offer a choice in width?

Thanks guys.

Purchase a pair of ice skates and take the holder / blades off? Laughing

But seriously, apart from ice skates I've never come across any form of footwear that has different widths, simply bigger sizes.

Do take into consideration that the boot has to "bed in" (or if in ice skates terms mold to the shape of your foot).

I'm the same, got to go and try on a few. I ended up with a pair made by W2 which fit great.

Alt-Berg will make you a pair to measure.

I had the same looking for alround day2day boots, size 11/12 wide feet - I picked up some 3/4 fully waterproof / leather oxfords for 60 quid new - they where tight as on the width, made my feet ache a bit in the shop but no blisters and they gave after a couple of weeks, fit like a glove now after 9 months and never leaked once, I was unsure but the 25 yr trading experience of the shop guy and a punt at 60 quid, I'd buy them again for day to day, nipping out boots. I wear them around the yard a lot if I have to run out quick cuz they live by the front door..

Thanks for the feedback guys.

Ideally im looking for a sport boot. If anyone sees this thread and can think of a wide fitting boot, that would be fantastic.

Thanks again guys

J&S is a good place to look.
I have a pair of size 10 Spada boots that are really wide fitting.Even my already wide bunion foot fits perfectly.
Maybe they aren't all wide fitting but the couple of pairs I tried on seemed to fit me fine.
Got mine from CMC.

Do you know which model boot you have from spada? I am on the website checking it out and they seem to have a few options.

Thanks.

Yeah looks like them.
I wouldn't buy them without trying them on though.
Maybe my wide feet aren't as wide as your wide feet Smile
They are budget boots though so not as waterproof as more expensive ones. Don't really go out in the rain much so never really tested them.
Also zips can be annoying snagging etc but for the money they are ok.

I've always had problems with footwear having nearly square feet (8 EEEE!!)
Twin zip tourer type boots tend to be the easiest to get into - I've got an old pair of Oxford bone dry twin-zip tourers at the moment which are extremely comfortable and yet to leak, despite the fact that the leather has nearly worn through where the gear shift rubs!
