Good Source For WIDE Size Oxford Style Shoes?
My feet have gotten kinda wide over the years to the point where I can’t even think about wearing regular width shoes anymore.

I have two pairs of oxford style shoes, which is my preferred shoe style; one brown and one black.

I need to replace both pairs and I just recently found out that they don’t make the brown version any longer of the brand I have, only the black.

Does anyone out there have a good online source for decent wide size shoes?

I wear Skechers Rilar Oxfords in a 10.5 EEE and have for decades. Probably the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn. Not pricey and Amazon available. Product #64260EW.

I have a couple pairs of Allen Edmunds for “fancy” court days, and they’re great, but if you don’t want to have to sell a kidney, you can probably find what you’re looking for at Johnston & Murphy, where the rest of my work shoes come from. They’re also more comfortable off the shelf, IMO.

I predict that there will be many suggestions and statements about the law made here, and some of them will be spectacularly wrong. - jhe888

Allen Edmunds makes very nice, traditional, hard leather shoes.

You may be able to wear Ecco, too. They don't always call them wides, but they make them to different lasts, and many models fit my jumbo wide, feet. They are rubber soled - and a little more cushy. Not cheap, but less pricey than Allen Edmunds.

10.5 4E here. I have been using Zappos for years because retailers simply don't stock much in wides. I really like New Balance, Clarks and Hoka as they offer many options.

Search for men's Clarks and filter for your size and width. You'll be surprised at the selection.

Dunham (New Balance brand?) and Ecco have been good for me. Zappo's (Amazon) may have a decent selection.

Allen Edmond makes more than traditional hard leather shoes. If you catch a pair you like on sale, they aren’t too bad considering how long they last (no pun intended).

I like these made in Wisconsin ones for $250:

I think you can get 10% off the sale price even if you give them an email address.

Allen Edmonds also has the Shoebank website that sells seconds for less - often on sale too.

If you are not in a rush Allen Edmonds runs sales seasonally.

If you sign up for their emails you get what's on sale weekly or more.

I bought two pairs of their road warrior shoes that seem to be discontinued.

End of summer sale is running now.

Their sales are typically 40-70% off.

Alden 907's. They also make cap toe oxfords in several other lasts to suit the shape of your foot.
