If the answer to any of these questions is unacceptable
, move on to a different size or try a different boot altogether. Even if it seems like a minor irritation, it could turn into a major sore point after miles or days of hiking. Repeat the process until you find one or more that meet your requirements and budget, and fit your foot. At that point, you can either buy the boots, or take down the model and size and shop around other stores or online for the best deal. BUT don't delay get some boots that make your feet happy happy feet make a happy hiker! Happy Trails!
