Do you have trouble finding wide shoes? Liam, too, has a wide foot and it

seems like only Stride Rite makes wide shoes for kids. Once I saw a pair of New

Balance sneakers in Kohl's but they weren't wide enough.

This is the first time that I had trouble finding shoes. We've always been

able to find wider tennis shoes, but the last time Grandma got a

pair (he was wearing a size 2 and I told her to get a 3), he had alot of

difficulty walking. We have a shoe store about 30 miles west of here that

is known for having weird sizes. I called ahead and they had a size 4 put

aside for him. When Tim took him there, the 4 was too small! No wonder he

had difficulties walking. I fit in his shoe and he can fit into mine (I

also have a wide foot) - so in the future, if I can't find him men's shoes,

I'll try womens. This shoe store also put in arch supports (glued in).

Poor Grandma always bought the most fashionable tennis shoes (Air

Jordan's or whatever they are called) - I don't know the name of the shoes

he has now.

The last time I bought Trent runners, we went to a different shop - the previous

one had always given us good service and attention. The new one, the girls

worked extremely hard to get a pair of shoes to fit correctly (and at a

reasonable price) - in the end they tried women's fittings for him, which were a

good fit and looked good on him. Not like the previous ones, which after a few

wears looked sloppy. The new ones which he has had a few months still look like

they are fitting well.

Obviously something to keep in mind - if the shoe isn't fitting quite right try

the other genders fittings.

Keep smiling

Jan, mother of Trent 20yo w/Ds - from the Land DownUnder - from an area which

doesn't seem to know what season it is at present!! Last week cold (10 c) and

lots of rain 4 inches overnight, rivers peaking, roads flooded, still being

detoured when travelling into Geelong.

This is ironic in a way! I have a big wide foot and often buy men's

sneakers. They're built wider and stronger than women's.
