La Sportiva Nepal Cubes, size 42. Bought this year and spent 2 days on Shasta, 3 Days on Mt Baker and a few training hikes. Unfortunately these boots didn't fit my foot well. 

$300 obo, retail $600, also would be willing to trade for a lower volume boot of same size.

I don't need your boots (3 pairs is enough) but I wanted to suggest maybe trying on the women's version if you can find them. I discovered, after years of footwear-intensive sports, that the main difference between men's and women's footwear is width/volume. In running shoes, for example, a men's standard width is a D while a women's is a B. Buying my first pair of lady shoes was an eye opener - suddenly I didn't need to cinch my shoes up super tight. 

I have two pairs of Sportiva boots, Baruntse doubles and a pair of the lightweight Trango Trek, in the same size (41.5). The Baruntses are not available in a women's version, and while the men's fit is OK for what they are, the width and volume is definitely a bit much. I have to crank on the laces to get a secure fit. The Trango Trek's fit like a damn glove - I barely even have to lace the lower part. 

Maybe you have lady feet. I do.

Dudes with lady feet have to look out for each other.
