Hiking boots + tapered pants

Do hiking boots (and bigger boots in general) simply go only with wider trousers, or is there a way to make them work with tapered ones?

I have a pair of hiking boots but every time I put them on they feel quite big and I’m thinking they’d be more at home with wide pants. I don’t have very wide pants, though. I attached some pictures wearing them with pants with different leg opening.
Khaki chinos - 21.5cm
Indigo and ecru jeans - 20cm
Cords - 19cm
Fatigues - 18.5cm
White chinos - 18cm

I think down to 20cm it looks fine (?). I’m not sure about the cords and fatigues. And I think the white chinos with the 18cm opening are too slim for them.
+1: ecru jeans look better cuffed, right?
Any input from you is much appreciated.
