I always want to like Danner, but the narrow toe box is murder on my feet.

Thread resurrection. I've been looking at the thorogood and carolina boots. Leaning hard to the Carolinas. I currently wear 10.5 W in red wings. How do these 2 fit compared to the redwing. No dealers around carry either of these brands.

I wear a 14 EE in Carolina and Thorogood, and can wear a 13 EE in Redwings, but they don't quite feel right. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Fuck danner, their boots have gone to shit. Whites or Hoffman’s. They are built better and will outlast danners. Have never worn nicks but they are hand built in Spokane like whites. This^ Wore Danners through the 90’s and went through three set of Ft. Lewis boots in the whole time. They stated going down hill around ‘01, last pair I had in ‘lasted less than 6 months. I got my first Whites smoke jumpers in ‘13, they finally needed a rebuild last year so I ordered a second pair so I wouldn’t be without during the rebuild. Money so well spent. I’d love to try a pair of nicks, if I end up needing an insulated boot I’ll probably order from him to try it out. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: What do you recommend for hiking/ backpacking or hunting boots (as in high altitude/ long distance heavy miles) if Danner is shit? From what I know about whites it looks like they just stepped into the hiking/ hunting sector with European manufacturing... I would love to try a pair but they seem pretty new to the game. Get some of their traditional boots. |

If you want to educate yourself on boots, these guys have a hell of a lot of info.

I'm a White's guy for GP boots.
I also wear Kenntrek, Lowa, and Crispi for other stuff. I gave up on Danners, Redwings, and Merrell. Absolute junk. |
