Buying Footwear That Fits - Or Why It's Best To Buy In Store

You know what they say: "warm feet, warm heart". If you have comfortable, dry feet in a pair of well fitting boots then the rest of you is likely to be happier. But shopping for footwear can be taxing so we though we could give you a few tips to help.

The best idea is to book a footwear fitting in our Llangollen shop we will lend you some clean trying on socks and even measure your feet, please call us on 01978 860605 Monday to Saturday, or pop in to our shop in Llangollen.

Please be sure of your size, walking socks will increase the size by a 1/2 or full size, we would rather your order two pairs in different sizes and ship one back, that keeps our advertising costs the same for your sale and makes it less likely we will lose the sale completely. We also do telephone orders for that exact shoe or boot you have used and loved, but carriage is chargeable and not refundable.

Sizing Information
Socks
Bring your socks along. Technical socks that provide an ideal foot climate, particularly in GORE-TEX® boots, are suitable. Socks of different thicknesses not only make a difference in the volume but also in the length of the boot. Ask to borrow or buy some if you don’t have the correct ones already. Wear orthopaedic insoles? Bring those too.

Laces
Tighten the boots correctly. Push your heel back, centre the tongue, and lace up. Be aware of the 2-zone lacing when doing so. When walking up mountains, lace the lower area up to the locking hooks (Zone I) tightly, and the ankle area above rather more loosely, in order to increase ease of movement (Zone II). When walking downhill, tighten the laces in the ankle area in order to prevent the foot sliding forwards.

Sizes
We’d recommend trying on sizes both above and below your usual size to check the fit. Did you know that feet are smaller in the mornings? In addition, the muscles deteriorate with age, the arch is reduced, the foot becomes longer and wider, and therefore larger. If in doubt, choose a boot that is slightly larger.

Check the fit
  • Everyone’s feet are a different shape and size and sometimes one foot is slightly different to the other. Check the shape of your feet against the boots. God questions to ask are:
  • How tapered are your toes? Do you need a boot with a round toe box? Is the widest part of your foot in the same place as the boots? Do my toes have enough room?
  • Does the heel fit? Can I stand comfortably in the boots? Does the boot fit well and is the volume correct?
  • The following rule of thumb applies – in a boot that fits, the foot has around 1cm of space at the toe (test with a finger).
  • Many boots purchased that actually too small. Do they pinch anywhere? The
  • width can be stretched and/or will adjust with time when broken in – but not the length!
  • Remember that boots that are too long or wide are not the correct fit.
Try walking uphill
Use the test ramp available in the shop. Above all, take your time. Keep the boots that seem the correct size and fit on for at least 10 minutes, because the leather and the interior, such as foam, will warm up and adjust. It is important that there is no heel lift and check for this when you are trying the boots. Heel lift and movement will cause discomfort and blisters.

Try walking downhill
Lace the boots tightly and make sure that your toes do not touch the front of the boot. The more difficult the terrain you are walking on, the more laterally stable the boots must be. If you are unsure of the best boot for you, Lukas Meindl recommends the more stable boot, as boots become softer over time.
Professional Opinion
TRAIL MAGAZINE REVIEW

When Meindl released the Burma Pro in 1997, it was a game-changer – a tough 3-season boot with a multi-piece leather upper and an extremely comfortable lining.

For the first time hillwalkers who wanted a stiff boot for rockier mountain trips and year-after-year durability didn’t have to suffer more uncomfortable traditional leather boots. The Meindl Burma Pro was ‘Best in Test’ in Trail for many years, and remains to this day a hallmark of quality. Now Meindl is replacing it with the Bhutan, which features the hallmarks of the Burma Pro, but with a freshly designed leather upper, a new softer ankle cuff and slick speed lacing eyelets.

Tipping the scales at 1812g (pair, size 11), the Bhutan sits comfortably with other full leather boots of its quality while being lighter than the 1948g Burma Pro. The new upper is made from

quality leather as in the past, with some restyling to give it a modern appeal. The ankle cuff is nice and high to keep grit out and protect the ankle, but it now has an incredibly soft edge, which means there’s no chance of this rubbing

or digging in uncomfortably when traversing slopes and putting lots of pressure on this area. As with the Burma Pro a full rubber rand encloses the boot for maximum long-term durability and there’s good stiffness in the toe box and heel cup to further protect the foot.

The sole unit remains the same with deep lugs to bite into mud and good spacing to prevent clogging. The sole flex is nice and firm for spending all day on loose rock.

I’ve been trying lighter boots recently in an attempt to find a pair that are genuinely durable, but without success. By contrast putting on the Bhutan is like returning to an old

friend. The fit feels slightly closer than the Burma Pro, so I don’t need the volume adjuster I always wore in that model; instead the Bhutan hugs my feet. There’s a huge amount of stability underfoot, yet the toe flex is smooth enough to allow an easy walking action. Memory foam system
(MFS) cushioning is also tremendous, and more than capable of taking the fatigue out of walking over rocky ground or descending all afternoon.
