    boonie kaimai sizing

    Can someone please take a photo of sizing chart on the inside of their boonie kaimai boots for me please and either post here or pm to me.

    My last pair where just a bit small and I'm trying to remember what I needed.
    It doesn't matter what size you ones are....

    Thanks

    No, I checked there.

    The reason I need a photo is I have in my head that my last pair was in US sizing. I just need to see a photo to match or disprove my memory.

    Thanks @Mr Browning My memory has not let me down. I remember seeing size US12 on my last pair. They were too small, I had to take out the inner soles and where a skinny business sock to make them fit. I'll go a size up this time round. I'm picking UK12 will be US13.

    Holy hell, size 12UK-13US. Mate, they are boots not flippers

    Youre welcome.

    Ha ha, normally I'm a UK11 but I reckon you need a size up in the Kaimai boots.

    If I remember correctly it says on their website that many guys need a size up from normal especially if you are hiking with thick socks. Never quite understood why they would knowingly design them small or tight, anyway they are outstanding boots and I love mine. Especially at this time of the year...

    Im an 8 and got 8's, fit fine, I originally tried a 9 on, too sloppy for my feet. If I have any gripes at all, they are a right bastard to get out of lol.

    Yeah great boots. I like them for bush hunting. Can be a bit sweaty, a couple of days in them is fine but longer trips I like leather boots.
    Real pricks to get off!
