So I am thinking of getting a pair of good riding boots. Problems is, WIDE feet. Do any of you have wide feet and if so, what do you wear? I am looking for a 3/4 high extra wide.

Not much help, I know, but Sidi footwear tends to run really narrow -- it fits me well, but wide feet would be pretty uncomfortable.

One thing worth trying; spend some time reading the owner's reviews of different brands of boots at NewEnough.com -- he does a pretty good job of describing how the various models & manufacturers tend to fit on different shaped feet.

The best option is to make a trip to a moto store that has a few different brands and try them on.  I for one love my Sidi's, they fit me great and provide plenty of protection.  A co-worker of mine who owned a pair of Sidi's and now own a pair of Alpinestars raves about the comfort of the Alpinestars and will not buy or use Sidi's ever again.

Alpinestars tend to run much wider, I have a wide foot and I can't fit into a sidi vertigo corse.....


I love my A*'s
