I need boots and shoes, the ones I have are falling apart.
I have size 12 EE or EEE feet, I cannot get shoes in practically any store. So I'm going to have to order them. Any recommendations on a good online store? I'd like some recommendations, if you please, for the following shoe types: 1. TOTALLY FRIKKIN WATERPROOF SNOW BOOTS 2. HUNTING / HIKING BOOTS 3. CONSTRUCTION BOOTS 4. HEAVY WALKING SHOE FOR CRAPPY WEATHER THAT LOOKS OK WITH DOCKERS I'm grade B+ or better, but no A+++++++ is needed. Thanks |

Good selection @ Zappo's
I love my Caterpillar boots, others swear by Red Wing. |

The Timberlands I bought a few years back are waterproof and very comfortable. Nice and soft around the top. They are starting to wear in the heel area on the inside, but otherwise, they are holding up great. I wear them almost every day. Sorry, I don't know the exact model. Some Timberlands feel horrible. This isn't exactly them, but it's close. Mine are just a little higher up the leg. Kinda mid-high. The hooks at the top instead of eyelets make lacing and unlacing go much faster. Love 'em.  |

All of those categories could be satisfied with products in the Danner line....but since you obviously missed the 50% sale codes and the numerous threads here a few weeks back, I think you are SOL.
Oh, if you want something with your khakis or jeans try Merrell clogs...yes I said clogs. They look slightly dressy but don't get trashed so easily as dress shoes. Slip on too, comfy for long drives. |

USA made Danner Ft Lewis...they are gore-tex lined and waterproof and will last forever. Word of caution, order extra wide...they tend to run narrow. +1 I would definitely get the American made Danners and make sure and try them on before you buy. For me Danners run narrow as well. |

Whites Boots. The be all, end all of boots. I have on a pair of SmokeJumpers right now. http://www.whitesboots.com/index.php?dispatch=categories.view&category_id=184 I wear the Smoke Jumpers to work in, hunt in, and at home...I have some Pacs for the snowy stuff. Obeanhauf's boot cream is also your friend. |
