Wide width waterproof motorcycle boots

How wide? I'm a D width and the SIDI Onroads fit well and have remained waterproof in south florida downpours for four years.

The oxtars I just bought are nice and wide. I use heavy backpacking socks in the winter and running cotton socks in the summer. These have been very good for me. I didn't specify width in my boots but these are big feeling.
 
Rocky makes a gore-tex lined engineer boot that I like. I've always worn engineer boots. At a discount store they are quite reasonable in price. Got mine at the Boot Box in Meadville, PA. One caution, don't believe the sizes. I nornally wear a 9D but like wide boots just for riding. I ended up with a 10 1/2 W and am very comfortable.

Danner's 8" Acadia boot is ventilated, waterproof and will last years. It is reinforced where we need reinforcement, very comfortable to walk or hike in. It has laces ( not good if you have a chain). They make an insukated one for year round use. You can stand up on your pegs with no problem. I have worn these in heavy rain on an RT and on a GS and never had wet feet. Cruiserworks are very comfortable and waterproof thru the first set of soles but has a fiberboard shank that will not hold up to standing up on pegs very long.
 
I have had my Daytona Travel Star GTX for the past 2 years (I usually wear a size 12 in double E width (EE)) ands as soon as I tried them on at the dealer in Montreal, I was sold. They are as comfortable as a pair of old slippers. Rode in the rain several times without any issues, my feets remained dry.

These boots are not inexpensive but in my experience worth every penny.

Please see their website;

Daytona boots are sold in the US by https://shop.helimot.com/shopping/shopdisplayproducts.asp?id=25&cat=2+-+Motorcycle+Boots which is lucky for me as he is local. The Road Star GTX boots come explicitly in wide and narrow widths.

I wear BMW all around boots - so far they have been excellent. a less expensive really wide pair are Tourmaster Solution 2.0 - I found the all arounds to be more comfortable and liked the zipper/fold on the inside of my calf.
