My 17 year old DS is a size 14/15 shoe size. The trouble I'm having trying to get a pair online is unbelievable. Shops not worth checking as never have anything over a 13. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions of where I can get a pair of decent large shoes or trainers. ps. He likes Merrell or Mustang types but anything will do. Aaaarrrggghhh ! Smile

muffin im a size 9 sometimes a little larger. New look do them and if you look at wide fit they are a little roomier on the toes too. Primark are a little smaller. George (asda) do quite a lot and ebay have loads. I found looking under cross dressser/transvestite shoes brought up some nice ones amongst the goldfish in the platform types. Although I have to say it was a little disheartening that I had to do that.

for women, Evans do to size 10, wide fitting, I can sometimes get into them (I'm an 11). Mainly I wear converse as they do "girly" colours in huge sizes! Other than that its mens trainers and boots. Luckily I can't do heels due to a disability, so wear a lot of flat, wide, mens boots!
