Suggestion Box

Just a suggestion-for the vendors that go up to size 12M in shoes & boots why not size 12W?   Also for those that don't why not!  Just saying!!

The manufacturers can make shoes in any size imaginable.  It's the buyers who have to make it happen, they have to order and buy the merchandise.  If they don't carry something like a 12W it's because there isn't enough demand and they can't sell it.

@Kachina624, my sister works in private label footwear (production).  Wide lasts are very expensive to make and get right.  The manufacturers don't feel it's worth their while to make wide widths, and the return on investment is low.  Even if the buyers want them, the manufacturers still might not accommodate.  We're lucky just to get what's available now.

Try checking online for wide shoes.  I know that CHIC WIDE SHOES in Cypress, Calif. sells.  See if they have a web site.

I have noticed on several shoes/brands that an TSV will go up to 12 in meduim width but only 11W.  Doesn't make sense.  Should offer the same size in both widths and narrow as well.  I'm lucky that I am a 7 1/2M and not a difficult to find 10 1/2 anything, or 12W or almost any size in narrow.  I feel for you ladies.
