text: I am a longtime Vasque owner and I normally wear 4E but no one makes hiking boots in 4E.  Vasque has been acceptable for me in 2E width.  But in this case, these were unwearable.  I tried them around the house for a few days and did not notice any problems.  Then I tried some hikes around the block.  At first, there was some discomfort, but I thought it was normal breaking in.  Then it got worse.  The toe crease area dug sharply into the top of my feet - both were bad, but one excruciating.  It tried inserts and varied lacing and multiple types of socks, but it got so I couldn't go 20 feet without it hurting.  So I am giving up on them.
