Looking for a special boot.

I injured my foot many years ago and the ankle has deteriorated over the years. I had trouble pulling on one of my dress boots due to the swelling of the ankle so I took them to the local shoemaker who put a zipper in the boot for me. Cost like $15. Maybe you could consider that.

I have a bad right foot. I lost the big toe and because of numerous operations on the foot, my remaining 4 toes are frozen in place and can't be bent so this makes pull on boots problematic. I can wear regular lace up boots fine, but get tiered of dealing with the laces.
So what I thought would be neat and easy to slip on would be a pair of slip on boots like engineer boots, but with a zipper on the side. Since I can't bend my toes, I can't slide into a high top pull ups unless they had a zipper.
Can anyone steer be towards a source please?
Thanks,
Marsh

Look for
Milwaukee MB410 Classic Harness Leather Motorcycle Boots
They are a classic motorcycle harness boot with a zipper down the back. Saw these is person yesterday...look nice. Shouldn't be hard to find a dealer near you.

This is the boot I have. I have a hard time finding boots that fit me and are comfortable to wear all day. I have a high instep and wide short feet. These boots are great.

Another way to go is to find a loose fitting pair of cowboy boots and have a shoe repair man sew a zipper in the side for you. Make sure the soles are oil resistant. Leather soles are bad for your bikes health at red lights. Too much oil on the road.
