BIG Bear go to the local western wear store and ask if they know a custom boot maker,they can make a shoe also, most work out of their home or one man shop. It doesnt cost anything to talk to one,explain the problem,the one i know in Texas sometimes gave a big discount for some special cases or he did before he retired.Yes the joy of fatherhood is a smile and a sparkle in their eye. good luck
