Mist GTX Extra Wide - Noooo, soles way too narrow
Why oh why don’t they realise that wider feet need wider soles and not just a bit of extra material in the upper? Just bought some Mist GTX extra wide but have had to return them. Why, because the sole of the shoe is way too narrow, seriously narrow, which means the foot spills over the edges and has no support on the outer part of the foot. There is extra width of fabric on the upper so they aren’t too tight and there’s also plenty of depth to cater for a high instep. I have a very wide foot with the extra problem of a high instep and my instep starts almost immediately after my toes, so getting shoes wide and deep enough is problematic. So these shoes could be perfect if they had made the actual soles wider. But, sadly they haven’t and they are actually narrower than a lot of shoes. So, just be aware before you order.
