I will be curious to hear how they are! I almost went with those, but felt iffy about whether there was enough toe space for my taste. I ended up ordering these Bisgaard boots since they specifically mention having a wide toe box, along with being zero drop, flexible soled and everything else on my list. Plus being cotton lined! I will report back when I get them. Thank you all for the help! Hope all in search of such boots can find something that makes their feet happy!

HTH!
Katy Bowman’s advice helped me get rid of constant foot pain. She’s awesome! I started with Lems and now all I wear generally are Xero shoes. Before they got a winter boot line, I found some from Feelmax. They’re super lightweight and incredibly warm, albeit pricey.

So, to sum up this search, you're looking for a durable, thinner-soled boot, with a secure fit, and the comfort of a wide toe box? Have you searched for a wide width version of a women's boot?
