[pct-l] Light Weight Boots

[Tortoise]

check out New Balance shoes and the last (mold)  they use to make the 
shoe.  Some lasts have lots of toe room.

see New Balance : http://www.newbalance.com/techcenter/#/fit/
or Browns on New Balance fit information and lasts: 
http://www.brownscatalog.com/general/foottypes.aspx.
Browns seems to be harder to find out the facts about shoes than they 
used to. A drawback to buying from them.
