Are your lace-up combat boots hurting your feet? Doc Martens look great, but if it’s all-day comfort you’re after you probably want a wide toe box alternative.

Here are the best wide toe box and barefoot combat boots that have all the grungy style and none of the foot deforming features.

Why I Don’t Wear Doc Martens Anymore

A top down close up of a person's feet wearing black lace up combat boots. On the left is a Shapen Barefoot wide toe box Maverick boot with the text "Wear This" and on the right is a Doc Marten with the text "Not That" because it has a narrow tapered toe box

Doc Martens look cool but they are heavy, clunky, and have a narrow tapered toe box. I much prefer a shoe that looks great, but has a natural fit and feel with plenty of space for your toes. That’s where barefoot combat boots come in. They’re a perfect marriage of fashion and function!

Feeling comfortable all the time while not looking schleppy is a kind of secret superpower. That’s why I have such a deep love of wide toe box barefoot boots! I can live life more fully when I feel good and can actually move freely. But it’s not just for today – tending to the health of your feet now can keep you mobile and strong for decades to come.

And if you want the toe space but not the thin sole, I’ve included cushioned options here. You can also use insoles in the others!

Now let’s check out some barefoot combat boot alternatives that meet all the comfort criteria, but don’t compromise on style.

My Favorite Barefoot Combat Boots

Peerko Barefoot

Leather & Vegan Options | Lined or Unlined | Sizes EU 37 – 45
No Removable Insole | Side Zip (depending on model)

Peerko Boots

You can also order these boots directly from Peerko in the EU and use code ANYASREVIEWS10 for 10% off (but note that they do not accept returns outside the EU)!

For me the Peerko Barefoot boots are hands down the best looking barefoot combat boot style! My personal favorites are the Go (short cut) and Empire (long cut) and both have a side zip for easy on and off. Every detail is just spot on – it’s not hard to see why they’ve been bestsellers at Anya’s Shop the last few years.

They’re also look great even after breaking in and don’t scuff easily. All while having a wide foot-friendly shape that fits a broad range of foot types!

Sizing & Fit

  • True to size (but wool-lined Frost fits snugger)
  • Wide toe box, suitable for most foot types
  • Medium volume fit

These do not come with an insole but you can add an extra wool insole to your order. It’s great for some extra warmth and comfort, or to fill in extra space.

If you like the tall Empire and have wide calves, you might need something like a Boot Band.

Vivobarefoot Gobi Boot

Vivobarefoot Gobi Boot

Use code VIVO20ANYA for 20% off

The Vivobarefoot Gobi boot is a seasonal model that comes back every fall and winter. It comes in a leather lined and a fleece lined option depending on your warmth needs. Two things I like about Vivobarefoot boots – the have an oblique shape so you get lots of big toe room and they are very durable/high quality.

Even though the Gobi styles like a lifestyle boot they have a grippy outsole for some decent traction for outdoor use. The leather is so soft and supple, and they have held up like a dream. They have a modern urban aesthetic to them that feels fresh after so many lace-up boots that look the same.

If you’re wearing them in the cold, be warned that the insole that comes with it is not warm in my opinion. Check out this post for warm insoles options you can use instead.

Sizing & Fit

  • Runs slightly long, but I don’t size down
  • Average width (Men’s are wider than Women’s)
  • Medium to low volume

If you have wide feet I recommend sizing up or choosing the men’s version (same shoe just wider).

Mukishoes Igneous

Mukishoes Igneous

Also available directly from Mukishoes in the EU where you can use code ANYAMUKI for 10% off any Mukishoes purchase (except sale items).

Mukishoes is one of my all time favorite brands because their shoes are soooo flexible, gorgeous, AND they have extremely high ethical standards. The Igneous is a sleek leather boot lined with a felted wool lining. The zipper on the side makes these easy on and off, and they are superbly flexible.

Sizing & Fit

  • Mostly true to size but slightly small
  • Average to wide width
  • Medium to high volume

Mukishoes Igneous boots are very soft and forgiving, but I sized up to a 38 for a bit of extra toe room and so I could fit a wool insole (cuz it’s winter yo). A 37 would have been just a bit squishy.

You can read my full review of the Mukishoes brand here.

Xero Breckenridge

The Xero Breckenridge is new this fall and has a very streamlined look that can be styled any which way – whether you want to dress them up, down, or with an edgy grungy look. They can even be worn functionally as outdoor/light hiking shoes. No side zip.

Sizing & Fit:

  • True to size
  • Medium to wide fit
  • Medium volume

Zaqq Quintic

Zaqq Quintic

The Zaqq Quintic Brogue is a fun variation on the classic lace up boot style. The beautiful brogue detailing gives them a little something extra, and they have a side zip.

The leather upper is really nice quality, but the leather lining does get a little sweaty for me if it’s warm. They also are pretty high volume and the laces don’t cinch down very much, so if you are low volume like me you should plan on using an insole and/or socks.

Sizing & Fit

  • True to size
  • Medium to wide fitting
  • High volume

Groundies

Groundies (EU)

You can also find select models in the US at Anya’s Shop

Groundies is always keeping it fresh with trendy styles made barefoot. The Williamsburg is my favorite classic barefoot lace-up boot from them. The quality is also consistently good, so these are a solid barefoot combat boot option.

Sizing

I wear my usual size 37 in most Groundies shoes, but sometimes size up to a 38 for sock room. They have a Mountain shape to them and are medium width; a little bit wider than Vivobarefoot.

Some Groundies models come in an extra wide width, like the Salzburg model here. You can learn more about their Barefoot+ fit here.

Best for Extra Wide Feet

These are the barefoot combat boots that have the widest toe box, suitable for even extra wide feet.

Shapen Barefoot

Shapen Barefoot (EU)

Use code ANYA5 for 5% off directly from Shapen (returns are not accepted outside the EU) or shop Shapen at Anya’s Shop in the US.

The Shapen Maverick is spot on for the Doc Martens look! They have a side zip, roomy toe box, and sleek fit. They are very light and flexible – in fact I prefer them with an extra insole – but overall the styling is on point.

Urbaneer is a classic (less edgy) silhouette with a wool lining, no side zip, and a more rugged outsole for a wintry climate.

I love both of them – they’re the perfect blend of comfort with quality and style. If you have extra wide feet and/or want all the toe space this is one of the best options.

Sizing

  • Maverick runs slightly large – I do not size down but I have room for thick socks and insoles. Urbaneer is more true to size because of the wool lining.
  • Wide to extra wide toe box
  • Medium to high volume

Shapen boots fit on the larger roomier side in general. The Urbaneer does have a thick lining, so it does not run as big as Maverick.

I go in greater detail on the fit & sizing of Shapen barefoot boots in this review.

Origo Adventurer

Adventurer Women’s
Adventurer Men’s

The Origo Adventurer is an ultra light and comfy boot with ample toe space and a heritage feel. They are super comfortable, I am a big fan! The leather has a really nice natural quality to it that will get better with him. And of the options here, they are one of the lightest and most flexible.

Sizing & Fit

  • True to size
  • Extra wide toe box, but fitted through the midfoot and heel
  • Medium volume – easily cinches over my low volume feet

I think the fit on the Origo Adventurer is really great. You get plenty of toe space, but the shoe is not floppy or slippy. It’s a good balance of roomy and fitted!

Be Lenka Atlas

Be Lenka Barefoot (EU)

Use code ANYASREVIEWS to get 5% off Be Lenka directly, or shop these boots in the US at Anya’s Shop

Be Lenka Barefoot makes several stylish lace-up boots in a range of colors, all of which are ultra comfortable and high quality. If you like the combat boot style but have extra wide feet, this brand is going to be a better option for you than most.

My favorite as a combat boot replacement is the Atlas. They have a side zip for easy on and off and are lined with a thin fleece. Be Lenka also has the Winter 3.o lace up boot (no side zip), which is taller cut and has a thick wool lining.

Sizing & Fit

  • Runs small – I size up one in both Atlas and Winter.
  • Wide to extra wide fit
  • Medium volume

Be Lenka boots generally run on the small side and I size up pretty consistently.

But note that Be Lenka models on the ErgoGrip sole (Mojo & Diva) are not as wide as the Atlas, so it’s a good idea to check the product listing and size charts to understand what you’re ordering.

Realfoot Farmer

Realfoot Farmer boots boast an extra wide toe box for full splay space! They’re fleece lined, very lightweight, and super flexible in all directions. The insole is removable so you can customize your stack height, and the integrated membrane helps keep your feet dry. We love these for fall and spring!

Sizing

Realfoot has a very detailed size chart with not only length, but two width measurements to help you choose your best size. They have an extra wide fan-shaped fit that narrows through the midfoot and heel.

Ahinsa Jaya

You can use code ANYASREVIEWS for 10% off.

The Ahinsa Jaya is a vegan barefoot combat boot with an extra wide toe box. This option is super flexible, fits fits people who need a lot of toe space (check that non-sloping toe box), and can accommodate high volume feet. It is also super light, soft, and has a water resistant finish. I also love the side zipper for easy use!

Sizing & Fit

  • Runs a little small – I size up to a 38
  • Extra wide toe box, but slim through the midfoot.
  • Medium volume, but can easily cinch or loosen to most foot types

See below the the Ahinsa Jaya on two different foot types. On the left (below) is my low volume foot with a wide toe spread. On the right, is Samantha (our researcher here at Anya’s Reviews) with an EXTRA wide and high volume foot. Notice that the laces are cinched much tighter over my low volume foot, but Ahinsa fits both our foot types well.

Best Cushioned Options

Here are some combat boots that have the wide toe box and lightweight natural feel but a thicker sole for a bit more cushion.

Lang S (formerly Tikki Shoes) has released this new lace up boot and it’s the only wide toe box option with a classic chunky profile. They have a thicker stack height than the others listed here, but are still flexible! So if you’re looking for an in-between not super thin option, this is it.

And the toe box is really roomy, including above the toes. Overall, I’m really impressed with these! The leather upper and lining is soft and good quality and there is a side zip for easy on and off.

Sizing & Fit

  • Runs slightly large
  • Wide to extra wide toe box
  • Medium to high volume fit

These boots are generally roomy. I tried a 37 and 38 and the 38 is rather large for me, though I could make them work with thick socks.

Leather & Vegan Options | Waterproof Option | Sizes US 5W – 15M

Lems Boulder Boots

The Lems Boulder Boot is super popular in natural footwear circles because it has a timeless look to it, and a wide toe box. They have a thicker sole than any other shoe I review here, but it’s still zero drop and a little bit flexible (not as flexible as the others). They are definitely more structured than most of the options here and take a bit of breaking in, but are pretty dang comfy once softened up.

One thing I love about Lems is that they have a lot of vertical toe space, so you really get toe freedom. I particularly like my Boulder Boot Grips and wear them a lot for cold weather hiking or walking in the rain.

Sizing & Fit

  • Runs small – I usually size up to an 8 in Lems.
  • Wide to extra wide fit
  • High volume

Feelgrounds Patrol

Feelgrounds Patrol

Use code ANYA5 for 5% off

Feelgrounds Patrol boots are vegan, waterproof, fleece lined (in their Winter version), and slip resistant. They look super stylish with a chunky appearance while being practical. Many people even use these as a hiking boot!

I personally found the material a bit stiff for my liking, but for people who want a more traditional feel that’s not as thin and flexible as other barefoot shoes this is a good option.

Sizing & Fit

  • Runs slightly small
  • Wide to extra wide fit (will work for many foot types, but you may need to size up to get enough width).
  • High volume

Best Budget Options

Saguaro Ambition

Saguaro

The Ambition II from Saguaro is a great affordable option that still retains all the barefoot qualities we want in a boot. It has a nice wide toe box, and a flexible 4mm zero drop outsole. The laces are low quality and a little difficult to adjust, but once you have them set there’s a handy side zipper for easy on/off.

The lining is medium thick faux fur that’s soft but will make your feet sweaty, so I would plan on sizing up to wear socks.

Sizing & Fit

  • Runs a little small – we usually size up
  • Wide fit – will work for some extra wide feet.
  • Medium volume

    Hi! After reading your reviews now I want alllllll the shoes 😉 However, I think I will go for combat first. Would you rather pick Groundies Berlin or Peerko Go? Also, which ones are higher?

    Reply
    1. Anya

      I haven’t tried either of those styles myself, but having tried other shoes from both those brands I would say Groundies Berlin with the original sole (note the GS1). It is sooo flexible and comfortable. Peerko is a little bit wider in the toe box though.

    Hi there Anya,
    I just bought a pair of Gobi Hi Top IV (thanks to your code!) and have been wearing for 2 days now.
    Two questions: they are really creaky, would not feel comfortable wearing them in quiet spaces, do you know if this stops completely and how long it takes?
    Also, I thought they would be lined with beige faux fur, but they are lined with dark synthetic material. I purchased on their website but am wondering whether they are original… Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!

      Hey! The Gobi Hi IV doesn’t have the faux fur that last year’s did – I just pulled out my pair of the most current model (the IV) and they are also lined with a plush material that’s neither fur nor fleece. So I think you just got the current model that was just released this fall. Mine are also super creaky! I recommend putting a little leather oil or conditioner on the tongue (it’s the leather on leather that makes the noise).

    Hi Anya
    Thanks for the update.
    I’m debating getting the MukiShoes Igneous or a pair of Zaqq Quintic. I have shallow volume feet, that aren’t particularly wide, fine bone structure. I feel my feet are quiet similar to yours when I look at your photos. Which would you recommend?

    Reply
    1. Anya

      I think both would be great. The Zaqq Quintic fits me really well with no fuss. The Mukishoes Igneous I sized up in for width and that plus the fact that Mukishoes tend to be higher volume in general makes them fairly roomy. I got them with the wool insole and I need to wear that plus tie the laces fairly tight. Those two things makes them fit great. If your feet are proportionally narrower than mine, then the Igneous in your normal size I think would fit well too.

    Hi Anya,
    I love your blog! Discovering minimalist shoes completely changed my relationship to shoes. I have a question for you:
    I desperately want a pair of minimalist combat boots. I have the Lems boulder boot and I have loved that it does have a thicker sole, but I’m looking for a something a bit less boxy. Which of these boots would come in second on the sole thickness do you think?

    Thanks for doing this for all of us 🙂

    Reply
    1. Anya

      The Feelgrounds Patrol would be the next thickest option, I believe it is over 10mm, but not quite as thick as the Boulders. Another option is to add a barefoot insole to whatever you choose, like from NorthSole. Just keep in mind that the insoles take up space so you might need to size up for them to fit (especially if you get the 6mm northsole insole). Because I have low volume feet I can comfortable use the 3mm insoles from NorthSole in most of my shoes.

      Jacob T,
      I’m active duty Army. I have a pair of Men’s Belleville TR105 Mini-Mil Boots. They are AR 670-1 compliant. I quite like these boots. They are 2mm drop, rather than 0mm drop. But they are worth a try if you’re still looking for something.

      One that comes to mind is the Mukishoes Igneous. This year it will be released in kids sizes which bridges the gap up to the smallest adult size. They told me their fall launch date is Sept. 7th.

        1. Cee

          What a shame they don’t seem to have Mukishoes Igneous in children’s sizes after all. The hunt continues. It seems to be a real gap in the barefoot friendly market. There is no problem in finding heavy, rigid combat boots for children.

          1. Anya

            They’re having a second round of fall releases in October, they must be coming in then! At least I hope so. They’ll told me it was happening this fall, and they’re usually pretty precise.
