Before I start this is not a post about JKs, I am a member from Australia, and I am ex Royal Australian Air Force, and a current serving member of the Queensland Police Service. What I am wanting to figure out is this.
I have extremely wide feet, and I have noticed on E bay that there are people selling pairs of boots that they do not have use for any more.
I have a US 9.5 (4E) foot and these size boots are virtually impossible to buy in Australia. I am using either 10.5 W or 11s to get the width I need.
As I said before I have seen boots for sale in Ebay that troops are getting rid of, BUT my question is this......... I can see the sizing is diffrent on these boots and I can not figure out what is equivellent to what I need (US 9.5 4E).
AND is there anybody out there that would have a pair of boots that will fit that are willing to sell them to me????
I am willing to pay for them and for the postage if the price is right.
I know it seems to be a strange question to ask on a site like this, BUT Im getting desperate. I have to buy all my shoes from the US and I know Asics and New Balance US 9.5 4E fit me like they should, but when it comes to a Hiking Boot or Hunting Boot, I cant seem to find aything. I usually buy Keen Boots, but they seem to have become narrower. And I have recently baught two pair and they do not fit.
I am after either a 9.5 4E or even at 10.5 in a tan boot, ( preferably new if possible) I can use for hiking, SO if anyone can help please post back, ask around, PM me, any help would be appreciated.
I would even concider buying two pairs if they are good.
Thanks

Luke

Not sure if they ship to Australia. But check out www.sportsmansguide.com. As for the size conversion, I believe there are online calculator converters for this, and maybe even iPhone apps.
