Hello! I'm hoping somebody out there with big/wide feet might be able to point me to some good shoes.

I've read that the Inov8 Roclite 315's are good but I can't seem to find a vendor anywhere. (any tips?)

Any other options?

Thanks!

I wear a 14 and wear an Asics Gel-Trabuco 12. They come in both a GoreTex and a non-waterproof version.

Jim,

I wear size 14 Montrail Hardrocks. I am been very happy with the fit. The Hardrocks have been replaced by the AT Plus in 2010. Here is the link to the montrail site:

Definitely agree with Morgan though…fit is everything. I tried on a few different shoes before I found these one..so the more you can try out the better.

I'm always looking for good footwear in size 13 or 14. Big toe box is my top priority. I usually go with 14 EEEE if I can find it. I have had some decent luck with some of the "meshy" Vasque shoes, even though they aren't wide. The best fit for sure are New Balance, but they change models so frequently it feels like starting over every time you need new shoes. They're not the most durable, either. I've done over 1000 miles this year split between 2 pairs of Vasques and 1 pair of New Balance. The Vasques are more trail worthy, but the NB are more roomy. Curious to hear other suggestions!

Umm…wow. I was picturing hefty return shipping costs for comparison shopping. I guess I'll just order 5 pairs of shoes (hope my credit card doesn't get flagged!) and keep the best one.

Thanks for the tips!
