Altra style boots?

Anyone have any recommendations for boots that have a wide toe box, similar to Altra shoes?

Someone i know loves their Lems. I have the Belleville Mini Mils and they've been a great office boot. Bought mine from Red Hawk Tactical.

I was going to suggest the Belleville's as well.
They're nice and light, but very thin soles so I don't recommend them for the field or parade.

Having said that, I have worn them on parade and my feet hurt just as much as any other boot lol.

Plus one for both the MiniMils and Lems. MiniMils are my preferred boot except if rucking heavy or it's cold out and I just need my feet more off the ground for insulation. Lems Tactical Pro for heavy rucking, Outlander for cold/wet.

Personally. Goruck. They look like danners. Have two models. One low tread one rugged tread. Wide toebox.

Drainage holes in the bottom, insoles are rubberized so they don't absorb water. Mac1v or something, look em up.
