Well of course I spoke too soon. It had actually appeared that my order had been lost as they said it was put on my steps on Friday -- only problem, no box. So after a little tracking down and finding out they (UPS) somehow sent it to West instead of East. Anyways, even with that confusion they still stated that they dropped it off at my house. Come to find out, they gave it to my neighbors.

Anyways, about the shoes, the Reebox Patent Leathers look great. Of course I won't be able to know what they feel like on the court for another couple months. If you are looking for a pair, Between The Lines is the cheapest place I've found them, so far. http://www.btlofficialsgear.com

I finally found the Nike Air Monarch II in my size and extra wide. I love them. I think I saw somebody say that they use inserts in their Monarchs. What kind of inserts are best?

I couldn't even find what these look like, does anyone have a picture? Where'd you get yours Chuck?

I'm selling these on Ebay. Wore them a couple times only.

And here is a picture of the Monarchs:

Has anyone put leather luster on their Monarchs? I know that Leather Luster only takes to leather shoes and I don't want to ruin my Monarchs if they aren't. Different websites have conflicting information.

I got mine at "Dick's Sporting Goods", which I think is a national chain. They have a little mesh on them, which I'm not crazy about, but for the comfort, I think they'll be fine.

You can usually find them at Shoe Carnival, too, which is also a national chain.

Chuck,
I need a little extra arch support in all my shoes, so I'll add a pair of Odor Eaters and a pair of over the counter Dr. Scholl's orthotics. If I didn't need the orthotic I would probably add a Dr. Scholl's Memory Foam insert. They're about 9 bucks at Wal-Mart. The Monarch will be seriously soft and padded if you add these.
