If I measure the original insole from my Tibet, it's ~270 mm, my foot ~255 mm (home measurement, not pro ). VLC insole for size adjustment I had to remove, never wear thick socks and still feel super stable . On descent I tie boots tight (for ascent not to the top), so toes don't jam (but sometimes feel them). I'd definitely take larger ones, esp when foot tired and swells a bit, need more space, material doesn't give at all, esp toes.

Hi, please for advice on buying hiking boots or some of your experiences to see what the problem is.

In trail running shoes, specifically I have La sportiva Lycan gtx https://www.sportiva.com/lycan-gtx.html, I can walk hours and hours on any terrain, from high mountain hikes to strolling around the city on a trip, and I don't feel any pain in the soles. They have super grip, are light, in short, I love them. I even have two pairs.

I also have Alpinine Tibet lady mountaineering boots https://www.alpinashop.si/p2-28-1034/tibet-ladyv-63422?utm=ALPINASPORTS_PRODUCT, which provide super ankle support and generally I feel good in them, but ... they are quite heavy, stiff, grip is much worse (but the rubber doesn't wear like on running ones of course).

The essence of the problem is that after e.g. 10 km of walking in the boots it starts to hurt me (burning pain) in that part of the foot that bends, so where the arch ends and toes begin. Too hard sole of the shoe or what's the problem? My partner has no issues in the same boots. I'd otherwise walk 365/year in my trail running shoes , but for snow and potential crampons really not , besides I recently managed to twist my ankle, luckily nothing serious, but still I'd like a shoe that gives more ankle support (I doubt elastic strap is enough ), but at the same time "light", with good grip (that's really very important to me) and suitable for winter too .

Of course everyone has their experiences and favorites among boots and brands, logical. Still asking if anyone had similar issue with sole pain and would be grateful for any idea. Best thanks in advance!
