I have VERY WIDE fee and I love my Garmont Endorphin AT Boots. If you have to get any modifications done to your boot shells (like blowing out the 6th toe area like me), then you'll most likely have to go with Garmonts -- my boot fitter wouldn't even work on Scarpas b/c of their use of multiple types of plastic in the shell design. Garmont uses 1-single type of plastic (as opposed to Scarpa who uses 3), thus providing a single melting point that's much more favorable to modification. Now, if you have wide feet, but don't require custom boot fitting, then you'll probably want to go with the Scarpas as they tend to run bigger out of the box than Garmont.
