Size 15 wide boots?

[Brando CalPankian]

My apprentice is a bigger dude. I can't for the life of me find forestry boots (chainsaw boots) in a size 15.

Anyone with size 15 footsies have recs on good boots for the kid? I'll be buying them for him.

Thank you

Haix doesn’t make a 15 wide in the protector ultra? I’d be surprised…

They do not, unfortunately

Man, sorry… I figured if they existed, Haix would be the ones to make them… They do run larger than normal in my experience. I’m a 12 in pretty much anything, and can wear a 11 in Haix comfortably FWIW.

Buy two pairs when you find them

The Airpowers come in a 14.5 wide I see. Not in stock though.

You could try contacting Haix and seeing if they are able to make a run of 15s in one of their Protector models. If they already have forms on hand it might be fairly easy.

That's a good idea.

The Carolina loggers come in 15 wide, I personally cannot stand the loggers but if options are limited overall they’d be worth considering

IME, logger boots are good for loose terrain and hills, bad for hard ground.
