    I was wondering what people would suggest for waterproof boots for people with size 14-15+ and normal to wide feet.  Thank you.

    I’m 14 double to triple wide

    Lowa Renegade Mid GTX 14 wides have been great.

    Edit: I tried over a dozen boots trying to get a good fit.  Big differences in arch height, toe width, mid foot width and heel grip that’ll have more impact than the pros/cons of the boots other construction points

    14W here.  Had good luck with La Sportiva Ultra Raptor II Wide.  Have also had pretty good luck with various generations of Keen Targhee.

    Size 9 so maybe I don’t count. I can only comment on width. The Targhees work well in that regards.. Hold up well. I havent tried the boots, but they should be the same. The shoes and the sandles are my everyday wear.

    As you probably know since you’re asking the question, the size breakpoint for most brands is 14/15.  Lots of size-14 options out there, very few size-15 options.  I’m a 15, wearing both some boots and some low-top hikers from Danner right now.  Not as good (for me) as the Vasques I wore for years, but pretty good.

    Edit:  I should have mentioned, I’m a 15 with medium width, high arch/instep.  Sometimes I need a wide if the shoe runs narrow.

    Keens have a very large toe box and wide sizes. And I’ve been surprised by Tevas. Very comfortable for my wide feet.

    I bought a pair of Topo Trailventure 2 WP for my son. We are both size 15. I tried them on and were comfortable. My son likes them. My son had a pair of Hoka Speedgoat WP boots in 14 before he outgrew them. I think he liked those more.

    Though everyone’s foot is different the Danner Mountain Light II works for my size 15’s.
