[QUOTE="Andy S., post: 5064555, member: 131"] After a few weeks of research on my feet and what boot would work well for me, I recently ordered a pair of Crispi Briksdal Uninsulated from Midway. The Briksdal is a more narrow boot, that aligns with my long and narrow foot. Years ago, my foot measured 14 AA ([I]long and narrow[/I]) when I was fitted for some nicer dress shoes, but I have always worn size 13 in most casual shoes/boots and just made it work. I finally took some time recently to properly measure both of my feet. I printed and cut out some diagrams and did all the measuring/mapping myself. My left foot is a tad longer than my right ([I]true for a lot of men[/I]), thus I had to order size 14 in the Crispi boots. I have had them for a few weeks and they were pretty stiff out of the box, but are slowly breaking in with each passing day that I wear them. I plan to have them broke in enough and ready for turkey season this year. For reference, my Salomon Quest 4D GTX boots ([I]8" height[/I]) weigh 28 ounces EACH, where my new Crispi Briksdal boots ([I]9" height[/I]) weigh 34 ounces EACH. To be clear, the main reason I am getting new boots is my left big toe started toeing out ([I]hitting the end[/I]) in my Salomon boots, and it was very noticeable last year in the mountains of Missouri. Other than that, I love my lighter weight Salomon's and they have served me well for the last 4-5 years. I used them for all warm weather hunting when I was not around a bunch of water. [/QUOTE]
