    Boots for wide feet

    Hello everyone! I'm walking the Camino in July from SJPP. I have bunions and wide feet, so it's difficult to find regular cute shoes. I'm worried about my feet during the walk and I want to find the best wide footed hiking boot there is with room for insoles. Any suggestions? Thanks and...
