My feet hurt everyday because my shoes fit badly. I don’t where to find decent shoes.
Here’s an album of my feet.
Most shoes are simply not made for this shape so luckily this means pain for me.
Length: 10.63 in / 27.1 cm
Width: 5.625 in / 13.52 cm
(both left and right are same length and width)
[According to this site: http://www.shoesrx.com/menssizes-1.aspx
US men 9.5 6E is 4.5 in wide. My foot width is closer to a size 15.]
The shoe appearing in the pictures is US Men 9.5, 8E
8E = EEEEEEEE
Too narrow.
Too deep (they’re made for swollen feet, which I don’t have, so they have extra space above my foot, making it hard to walk in them)
The problem is the toebox. If it didn’t taper so hard, it would have enough room. But most shoes are made with a hard taper.
I currently wear DB shoes’ Hebden in size 9, 6E (equal to US Men 10, 6E). Link below.

They hurt everyday, even after my custom stretching technique (shove stick deodorant container as far in shoe as I can. Let sit a day or two. Repeat as necessary.) Also, they’re too long (sold in whole sizes only), so my foot slides up and back constantly.
I have two pairs of these shoes and I’ve bought nothing else because I know they will fit as badly.
Here are brands that fit bad:
New Balance/Dunham
Hitchcock (wideshoes dot com)
Mt Emey/Apis Footwear
Anthony Alan Footwear
DB Shoes
Feelmax
Ino-V8 (“wider toebox;” it’s only wide for a medium-width foot)
Kuru Shoes
Lems
Vivo Barefoot
Nike
Adidas
Timberland
Wolverine
ASICS
Saucony
They all have a sharp taper.
I am not able to get custom-molded/bespoke shoes at the moment.
Please help. At least mention other brands. Thank you.
