From another thread I asked a similar question some time ago.

Ozhunter commented:

John, Try the fit of Meindl "BADILE" or "Island", Scarpa "Terra gtx, Ranger gtx or SL", Asolo "Power Matic 500", La Sportiva and Zamberland ALL with GorTex inner.

If Zamberlan boots suit your feet then the "Nebraska GT" with its Classic stitched sole weighing in at 750gr would be ideal.




Purchased a set of Scarpa Ranger GTX's. They were available in town nearby and as I prefer to try on, not buy on the internet for boots, tried various Scarpa's and found the Ranger's were wider fitting and fitted well.

Wore them the first time today on the farm, and felt good.

Used to have a set of Scarpa Trek's but they are too small now.

Did get over to Sydney on the weekend and had a look at Meindls at the Shot Show, and looked at the Island boots, but as I had already purchased the Scarpa's a couple of days earlier, no purpose in trying them on.

The Scarpas were also cheaper and available locally where the Meindls seem to be stocked by only one retailer in Australia ... per the NZ 'importer'.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Will post a photo when I take one.
