Yes, fit is everything. No matter how good a shoe might be, it is horrible if it doesn't fit. I can't say whether it would be good for a EE foot. Good luck.

Note that he does offer a "wide" in the full grain leather (not patent). Hopefully, the comments you read were not referring to those.

I know the guy behind the company...and worked a game with him this year (the one in which we issued 6 T's between us but no DQ's for 2 T's). I know he's trying to expand his size offerings as his volume increases enough to justify the less common sizes. Perhaps he'll soon expand his line to include wide sizes in patent leather. (No, I don't have inside info).

Which is why I love the Nike patent leather 3/4 high tops. Great ankle support AND, as a bonus, the black pants don't get caught in the tongue of the shoe or hung up on the heel. Love that.

Any details on the style and such of these shoes. Did not see it and would like to know.

Both Asics and Brooks make all black running shoes in EE - EEEE. A running shoe is built to take more "abuse" then a cross trainer and are lighter than basketball shoes. They are not patent leather, but very comfy and my orthotics fit perfectly.

I don't think so. IOW, 10.5 is my "size", but I wear an 11 in Nikes. No exceptions.

Did you see the Yellow patent next to the black......oooooooo weeeeeeeeeeee.....

Probably a coach or two that will agree with you there.
