Just received PAJAR Canada Moscou 3 Women's Nylon Waterproof Winter Boots, size 11, with special ice gripper tool. The boots look very well made and the Velcro closure is comfortable (no problem with putting on boots and tucking my jeans into them). I ordered these boots because winters in Seattle are very slippery, and I love the built-in ice grip feature. I have a severe bunion on my big toe, and next to it there is a crooked toe. Due to problems with my left foot, I only wear larger size 11 wide shoes/boots. So, I decided to try the PAJAR Canada Moscou 3, 11M boots. Reading the reviews, I almost convinced myself that I would most likely return the new winter boots. To my surprise, the boots were long and wide enough and did not cause any pain to my joint. Next problem: I have to wear orthotics because I need arch support. I tried putting in orthotics, they fit inside on top of all the original insoles, but it puts some pressure on the bunion because they (orthotics) eat up all the free space inside the shoe. I will wear them without orthotics (bummer). Hopefully over time the boots will become softer, and this will allow me to use orthotics. I haven't had a chance to wear them outside yet. When this happens, I will update my review.
