I bought a pair of Danner Elk hunters, liked the sole so much I bought another pair incase they were not available later. Two years in a row, I had side wall blowouts while side traversing miles from camp. Both pairs, two consecutive years I had to walk to camp with duct tape holding my boots togeth, both pairs ended up in the fire.
I will never buy Danners again.

Don’t know if they still make them but the Cabela’s meindl boots were awesome and they came in big sizes. They were always over sized so you probably would only need a 14 or 14.5. I bought 2 pairs about 5 years ago and still love them

Irish setter elkhunter is a good boot. I  like em.  I tried USA Danner and its OK.  The 600g is warm but 200g model in suede doesnt hold up as well.
MAGA!  Again..

I am using three different pair of Danner boots. I've had really good luck with them. Still wear the oldest routinely. Couldn't tell ya what model they are, all mine say Gore-tex on them and have been great. I would buy with confidence what you find a pair that fit well.
I felt like a one legged cat trying to bury a terd on a frozen pond!

Those Irish setter boots were awesome, I owned every gram of thinsulate boot they made, I had wore out my uninsulated pair and bought a new one. They were totally different super uncomfortable, just like lots of other brands they were being made somewhere else and the quality had gone way downhill. This was between 5-10 years ago. I have been wanting to try a pair lately just to see if they fixed the problems. I still have a little life left in my 1000 gram thinsulate pair and they are still the most comfortable boot I have ever owned, but the weather has to be pretty cold to wear them.since them I have ran through zamberlan, kenetrek, crispi,asolo.

 Ive been happy with Kenetrek for the last few years, but always on the hunt for more options . Does Crispi and Zamberland make anything over a size 14 ?

 The struggle is real for us Bigfeets :chuckle:

I don't see anything listed for them, but maybe if you contact them directly? Worth a shot.  Just make sure you contact Crispi US.
Both Danners and Irish Setters lasted me about one season each.  Picked up some Crispi's, I'll never go back.
