Sneaker Con's New App Has It All for Buyers and Sellers of Rare Kicks | 7 Best Men's Hiking Boots Available In Wide 2E/4E in 2023

How we test hiking boots

After careful inspection and analysis of each boot inside the Stefoy-les-lyonShops lab, we send out our in-house backpackers and seasoned hiking enthusiasts to the great outdoors for the footwear’s ultimate test. Once we have the data we need, we crunch the numbers to come up with the final rankings.

To give you an idea of our process, here’s what we do:

• We buy the wide hiking boots for men from our own pocket. We don’t accept any sponsorship to keep our reviews and rankings 100% objective.
• Our testers hike 30-50 miles or even more for each pair of hiking kicks. When they return from the trails, they give us their assessments of the boots’ actual fit, traction, heel protection, arch support, versatility, weight, and many more.
• All important aspects of the boots for wide feet people are checked and double-checked, leaving no stone unturned, so to speak.
• We get further data from checking the reviews given by other professional testers and the hiking community in general.

We end the process by assigning an overall score for each pair of men’s wide hiking boots. To see which highly-rated models to check out, go check the CoreScore.
