I am looking at a pair of Kenetreks but not familiar with their sizing. Does anyone know how their sizing fits relative to Danner USA boots or Schnee mountain boots?

My experience with Kennetrek is they run about a 1/2 size larger than the same size in my everyday footwear i.e Nikes. Haven't had any Danners or Schnees in many years, so can't make a comparison there. It is tough to buy this type of boot without having several sizes to try on for fit.

My kenetrek mountain extreme 13 Wide fits like my OLD Danner 13 Wide My old danners were made in USA, to me it seems the new ones (not made in USA) do not fit or feel nearly as good which is why I went with Kenetrek.

10.5 medium width are similar to what I wear in everyday shoes. I have a borderline narrow foot but their sizing guide on their website was super useful and said to go with the medium width. Print it out and measure your foot.

My Kenetrek hardscabbles are 10w , I usually wear 10-10.5w in every type of shoe. If ordering online, find a pair to try,then on then order.

My Nike's and ASICS are 12.5, my Kennetreks are 12 as are my Danners. Irish Setters are 12 as well.

Long time Kenetrek user and I feel their sizing is very close to true sizing.
