I'm pretty sure I would have had to pay $30 more to get a wide width pair. I've given serious thought to raiding my local Big 5 and Sports Authority to buy another pair for when I wear these out. I'd really like to find a nice pair of vegan oxfords or wing tips to wear with a suit that I can afford outside of the usual sweatshop sources.

I'm 6'4", a bit portly, with 12AA feet. I tend to tip over and Hubby -- 4 years today! -- is sometimes a literal support. Does everyone have the visual? I’m 6′4″, a bit portly, with 12AA feet.
