Walking and Hiking Boots For Small People

Q. Where can I buy walking boots for a woman in size 3? I have spent hours trawling through various web sites but boots for women seem to start at a size 4. Also socks in small sizes would be grat too. Socks that are sized 3 to 5 are useless for the size 3 person -too big. Small folk need a 2 to 3. It is pointless spending a fortune on boots only to have socks rub and cause blisters! There are some of us who are small - not children- but like to have the proper equipment. Children's stuff is not of sufficient quality.

A. Just adding a *bump* to this! I'm also a size 3 and find it impossible to get tramping boots in my size! I live in a town that markets itself as the outdoor capital of Britain, and STILL can't buy a pair! Kids boots are great for kids, but not for adults who weigh more and may be doing more difficult trekking. Any advice welcome!
