With so many sizes to choose from, trying to find the right shoes that fit can be a nightmare. However, it is important that you do it because it is crucial for the health of your feet, improves hygiene, and keeps your shoes in the right shape, allowing them to last longer. In order to achieve that, you will need to know how narrow or wide your foot is.
Most of our customers who walk in or call us state that they’ve been wearing ‘H’ width, a size that is only used by the Most Famous Minnesota Boot manufacturer and does not allow their work boots to be sold online.

These customers end up going with either 4E or 6E wide in brands we do sell and end up reporting that the boots we sell in 4E are wider than the manufacturer’s “H” width.
