Boots for narrow feet.
Hi,
I've asked a few gear and schedule questions here before and found the
info to be real useful. So.... I try again. My wife, Tara, and I will
be starting a through hike on May 4th or 5th. I bought some Scarpa boots
back in November and I have been wearing them for the last 4 months.
I think I've come to the conclusion that I screwed up and they are too
short (It took me a while to admit my big $$$ mistake).
Anyway, I just went out to the store over lunch and tried on a bunch of
boots. I tried on Vasques, Scarpa's, Aslo's(Sp??) and a Reichlei (Sp??).
All of them were way to wide when I got a pair that I felt had enough
length. I do have a narrow foot and always have a hard time getting ski
boots ( I finally resorted to the foam filled boots).
Anyone have any suggestions for a boot that runs narrow? I'm wearing a
Thorlo Trekker when trying on boots without a liner (I normally don't use
one). Is there a sock combination that may help? I'm thinking I'll take
a trip out to Campmor this Friday and try on some more, so any help will
be appreciated.
