EEE Feet, looking for boot recommendations

Howdy,
I’m in the market for some new hunting boots, and I have WIDE feet. As a point of reference, the EE width Meindl boots (Cabela’s used to carry and now sold direct online) are too narrow for me - They fit for width if I order size 9-1/2 or 10, but for length I should wear a size 9 in that brand of boot.
Anybody out there with feet too wide for EE, that has found a good WIDE boot vendor?
All feedback is welcome, and tx.
 
Odd. I just mentioned the new Meindl in another thread. I have the size 14 EEE comfort hiker and hunter. I even mentioned how their brand and Cabelas had issues. They have since gotten away from whatever issue they had and are making their boots how they were prior to being in Cabelas. Call them up and they can send you a pair and if you don’t like them just return them. They also make a cool spacer they can include upon request that goes under the insole to help with micro fit issues. I’m wearing mine right now.

Zero One, yup that is weird. Hard to keep up on these forums, I guess.
I don’t see EEE offered on the Meindl website. I sent them an email some weeks ago, and after. O response I ended up buying EE’s. I’ll give them a call tomorrow to try and get sorted out.
Thanks for the quick response.
 
I wear 4E width shoes. I just bought a pair of boots at REI that was surprisingly wide. Unfortunately, I can't remember the brand and they are at my hunting camp. I'm hoping to pop by there soon to deal with a hornets' nest I found the last time I was there.

I will try to remember to snap a photo of them.

This is them. They're really wide.

I think the model was called moab, but I'm not 100% on that.

I’ve worn Moabs before and they are quite comfortable, but mine began to curl up like elf shoes because they were getting submerged at least once a week and left to dry on the porch.

I haven't had these long, so definitely can't comment on the durability.
