If I feel like wearing funny looking shoes that are comfortable, I wear these: http://www.vibramfivefingers.com/products/products_KSO_m.cfm
I have a pair in black that I bought. I blogged about the why's and wherefore's over a few posts last summer: http://www.stevebjj.com/search?q=monkey+feet
While they aren't difficult to get on and off, after you get used to them, they aren't like slippers.

Not rude at all; it's just true! You know what they say.....
.......Big feet=.........big shoes. :lfao:
Alas, they don't make those in real men's sizes, either.....
Having wide feet can be just be just as problematic as having long feet, as it isn't just how far your foot goes into the shoe, but how much your foot fills the shoe. If you have a size 12 foot, a Kentucky shoehorn may not get you into a narrow 14 shoe.
Do I want to know what at "Kentucky shoehorn" is?
I have very wide and very flat feet. Now that I'm in my 40s, anything with an arch gives me gawdawful foot cramps. And heels are completely out of the question, though I'm tall, so I don't really care. I can wear a smaller size in shoes that are wider (sometimes as much as a whole size smaller). What really stinks about having such weird feet is that I LOVE shoes. And uncomfortable shoes turn me into the world's crankiest [insert rude word here].
My daughter likes 'em.

They're very comfortable, and easy to clean - I use mine mostly for working in the garden (mud hoses right off) and walking the dog.
Yup, I have the same kind—and it's true: they are no uglier than any other kind of flip-flops (and that's all I'm gonna say on that topic) and they are incredibly comfortable (way more comfortable than the usual flip-flop).
As for the other kind... people in Columbus wear these everywhere: shopping, movies, you name it. (Hint: we aren't exactly known for being, uh, stylish in these parts...
)I just made the term up solely because of an abbreviation and fit with the double entendres. Google doesn't even return results for it. . .yet.

Q: What is the correct footwear for a black-tie event at the Columbus Convention Center?
A: Black Crocs.
It's almost true!!

Bob,
I will try again, but ever pair I have tried on (* because some many people claim they are comfortable *) has been to tight in the width for the ball of the foot area.

Well, you are a Sasquatch dude.
In this case, it did. Usually, it doesn't. Now, I can't say if a 13 croc will fit a 14 foot, but I know that I'm wearing size 10 crocs and size 10.5 new balance.
YMWV
but your not an 11
My right foot is a 12.5 length if you measure heel to toe. But it is a 13.5 if you measure the arch. I have real short toes.
My left foot is a 12 length with the same problem as the right.
Most shoes in 13 do not fit me. I have to get those that are extra wide. And when a company switches from wide to narrow for their shoes I have to switch companies.
Which is why when I find a pair of shoes now, I almost always buy two. When the one wears out I can put the second on and have time to look for the new replacements.
Thanks
No offense to those of you who like and wear crocs but....I wouldn't be caught in a pair! Those things are ugly as sin!!!! lol
