Brilliant another fellow with boats for feet I'll definitely check the hanwag out
Yeah, my feet have more or less been the same size since I was 12 or 13, fortunately the rest of my body grew into them
Hanwag were a new brand to me, in the shop (Cotswold Outdoor, Aberdeen branch) I didn't expect to find anything and was rather dismissive of the sales person when they suggested I try them, I had half an hour to kill waiting on my train home so I did.
A good find, and I thanked the sales bod for their patience with me.
For walking I have a pair of Meindl boots that I've had great service out of, if you find the right width and length in your size they'll do you well, although it must be mentioned that they don't suit everyone. The keepers and gillies round here are either in the altberg or meindl camps on boots, the meindl are fine on my big wide feet
