    If that was for me, I am a guy, and I've got size 15, EEEE width feet.
    Have you looked at New Balance for sneakers/running shoes? One of their big marketing things is having the multiple widths in sneakers. I have very long narrow feet. I wear a womens 12 B. I am lucky to live 5 mins away from a factory outlet so it's all I even try to wear anymore.
    The only words you said that I understood were "His", "Phone" and "Ya'll". The other 2 paragraphs worth was about as intelligible as a drunken Teletubby barkin' come on's at a Hooter's waitress.

      Actually, I have. That's what my last 4 pairs of shoes have been. However, I can't find a New Balance specific place, and regular shoe stores don't go up that high very often, or sell out quickly. They're usually more than happy to order them in, but I hate having to make the extra trip to pick them up a week later, just to find out they aren't quite right

        Well if you ever feel like taking a trip to the Boston area, let me know, I will get you the address for the outlet. It's right across the street from the factory, and they always have the unusual sizes. Plus they are cheap, usually about $35.00 even lower when they have sales.

            I buy Ecco's. Men's Danish shoes. Expensive as heck (about $120 per pair), ugly as heck, but the one's I've got have lasted me five years now and are as durable and comfortable as the day I got them.

            Though, that's not the most I've spent on shoes. I've got a pair of thigh-high leather medeival boots that cost me over $500. They'll last a decade for sure, though, so I think it's a fair investment.

              mae- that would be logic.

              as we all know- "if it makes sense, it's not allowed"

              And for some people- they will do ANYTHING to save a buck. Nevermind it cost them 10 in time/travel. trust me. the area I am from, the customers I have dealt with...it doesn't surprise me one bit.
              I will not shove “it” up my backside. I do not know what “it” is, but in my many years on this earth I have figured out that that particular port hole is best reserved for emergency exit only. -GK

                How the hell does someone have that much free time in their day to actually do this??? It would take more time than the discount would be worth!
                Oh, she had lots of free time. She was on disability and worked at home for her family. I think the haggling thing was a hobby for her.

                I'd never want to shop with someone like that. Just too much hassle.
