Bunions are a pain. They cause discomfort in your foot and make it difficult to find shoes that can fit. They make it even more difficult to find hiking boots that can fit a bunion comfortably. What are you looking for in a hiking boot that fits a bunion comfortably? Simple: A wide toe box with depth will allow a roomy fit for your bunion. On the bright side many hiking boots come with wide toe boxes. Another trait to look for in Hiking boots are boots that are available in a wider size, because obviously the wider the boot the more comfortable it will fit the bunion. Here are a couple Hiking Boots I recommend for people with bunions:
Columbia Cedar Waterproof Wide Hiking BootsBig Cedar- The answer to this question is found in the name. These hiking boots have the width to fit a bunion with little issue, as well as an EVA molded insole to help comfort your foot and bunion during walking.
Columbia Newton Plus-Wide Hiking Boots– If you have a severe bunion deformity this hiking boot probably has the widest toe box on the market. Fitting to a width of C and D, again it also features an EVA insole for comfort as well.
Timberland White Ledge Boots– If Columbia is not your style and you desire a Timberland, this Timberland fits to the width of the foot as well. It also features a great depth to help with any dorsal pain from the bunion you experience. If your bunion is more painful on the top of the big toe joint than the side then this would be the ideal hiking boot for you.
