[Closed] Good shoes for wide feet?

Specialized stuff, assuming you're talking bike shoes.

I've always found Lakes come up quite wide plus they have a specific wide option for a lot of their shoes.

Lake, Sidi and Himano all do wide fit if you search around.....I have racing shoes in Sidi, winter boots from Lake and two pairs of Shimano AM style shoes. I'm size 12-13 wide fit and they are plenty wide enough.

Or Spesh. They seem to fit my "spent too long in flip flops" feet.

I've also got hobbit feet. Spesh and Shimano (watch for their ridiculous interpretation of euro shoe sizes) seem to be more than wide enough.

I've got:

Both very comfortable.

Trying on is best bet of course, as I'm sure everyone will rightly say. Nice to know where to start.

Sidi mega's, smashing bits of kit.

Anyone know if Gaerne shoes come up narrow or wide? Specifically the G.nemy?

I'm with Hugo, Spesh and Shimano all come up a little wider than normal.
whereas 5.10's were very tight on me.

I ride these....

which are great for my wide feet....

Sorry I should also have said that I have 'fallen' (i.e. completely collapsed) arches too. Imagine hobbit feet without the hair & kind of shrunk. I've found Spesh to be wide enough but have very high, stiff inside arches (its like standing on golf balls).

I have wide and flat feet, for clipless shoes I use [url= http://bike-import.ch/shop/product/9076/276/Alpine%20XL%20MTB%20Schuh/ ]Mavic Alpine XL[/url] SPD shoes which are nice and roomy, for flats I use 5:10 impacts, have used short and medium pairs before and they are again comfy.

The mavics come up slightly small, the bike-import site recommends going one EU size up which i did and they are very comfy.

For road I use Shimano R107, again nice and roomy but can be tightened nicely

you can always get Specialized shoes and a custom insole?

I've found Spesh to be wide enough but have very high, stiff inside arches

True fact, although the stiffness depends on the sole somewhat - carbon, etc, yada yada.

I've got high arches so happy with this personally.

On the whole, Specialized shoes seem to just work more often, without recourse to silly sizing, than Shimano stuff. Don't have experience of any other makes though.

Shimano WIDE fitting ftw!

without recourse to silly sizing

Agreed, size 46 Shimano, size 44 rest of the world. I think everyone now knows that their sizing is so out of whack that they have to stick with it.

I have very wide feet, 6 long but often need an 8 for width. Spesh Tahoe size 40 fit me perfectly.

As a pasty-footed baboon myself, another vote for Spesh Tahoes. Northwaves are nice and wide too
