Default Size 14 Tall Motorcycle Boots

I just received a pair if Stylmartin Legend boots euro size 47 the largest they sell and I can barley get them on. Took me 15 minutes to get them off after. Almost thought I would have to cut them off. Anyway, I need to send them back. 47 Is largest size they make. Anyone else out there who is 14 or larger who can make a recommendation for boots that will actually protect my feet and not look like I stepped out of a Matrix movie. Only brand I can find is Milwaukee and a few HD but not too crazy about them.

There is a few highly regarded boot manufacturers that custom make cycle boot...
Cost isn’t cheap but i think that maybe the route you might want to take...Let me search.

Tourmaster has a variety of styles in sizes up to US 14.

Alpinestars is another good brand; some of their styles go up to Euro size 50 which is equivalent to US 14.

These Wesco Boss boots are really nice! They gonna cost me and arm & leg for sure. Hard sell for wife. Checked out the Tourmaster. I kind of like one style they sell for $200 but not crazy about them. AlpineStars look like they are in my price range and have a few I like. Still not as excited as the Wesco. But then again much easier to justify to the wife.

Good Start!

All I was finding was Milwaukee boots.

The Wescos will outlast cheaper boots by far. Excellent protection and custom made. I have a pair and am way past satisfied.

I'm not surprised they didn't fit. I usually wear 12.5W, and take a 46 or 47 boot, for those that don't run especially narrow.

Good luck with Alpinestars. I found them tight for the size.

Most western stores have a hydraulic boot stretcher. Tell them what needs to be enlarged and they make it happen. There's not an off the shelf boot that fits my jacked up foot because of my instep. Some of them also use steam on the site to be stretched. Once done and you're happy, re oil them and ride out. They do mine for free since I buy my boots there but I'm sure most places would do it for a fee. Usually takes 18-24hrs. Look for places like Boot Barn or a Cavenders.

Same situation as you. Local Boot Store stocked Bates. More of a tactical boot, but after I put in comfort liner, it’s the best feel and comfortable I could find that fit right. Really like it’s a lace up and side zipper. Plus they don’t weigh much!

I normally wear a 15 or 16 depending on boot. Carolina makes their engineer up to size 15. I have bought my last few pair from these guys. http://www.americanmadeworkboots.com/engineer/

I have ordered from them and had them shipped to me but since I'm only a couple hours away I usually go in person to the store and they steam and stretch them for me since I need a little extra room.

Edit to add: Forgot to mention, everything they sell is made in the U.S.A.
