InkyQuillsMost manufacturers have decided that people with wide feet don't exist.

InkyQuillsnot sure if they're available where you are, but the new balance 624 has double wide up to 16 or something, and they're really good trainers and crazy cheap. just my two cents in case it's a help :)

baesexThanks! I actually switched from New Balance to Skechers about 5 years ago when even NB's wide sizes started having small toe boxes. Now that Skechers seems to be moving towards the 1 year disposable philosophy, I've found that Vasque and Merrell have some models in wide. Much more expensive but better quality and the Vasque Mantra are the most comfortable shoe I've worn. Since they're technically hiking shoes I've had to go a half size up though.

baesexNewbalance is *VERY* good at building shoes for people with really narrow, narrow, wide, extra wide, and OMFG you poor bastage, look at those things https://www.newbalance.com/men/shoes/all-shoes/?prefn1=width&prefv1=XX-Wide%20%286E%29 (yeah, 6E fittings).
Allen Edmonds (featured in another drop here) and Alden Shoes make wide sizes. Alden will on occasion (or so I understand) make shoes that are wide up front an narrow in back, though that might be special order. Neither company is inexpensive, let alone cheap.
Asolo has wide fittings in some of their boots, including the Fugitive, and the TPS 520 GV. But not apparenlty the TPS 535 LTH V EVO , which is the one I want.
Yeah, BTDT.
Oh, and Alico makes wide fittings in hiking boots, never tried them.

OrtepI'd be more willing to try if Massdrop made their return policy clear. I've asked on a couple of clothes/shoes drops how returns are handled and not gotten an answer. Definitely not going to try to buy anything with return shipping cost. Better just to go with Zappos or Amazon even if the purchase cost is higher.
