 I hear ya'!

My only option (pre-Walktall) was to get shoes sent over from the $tate$ and shipping and customs were a KILLER. It seemed that the majority of shoes that ARE in my size in most stores have either built-up soles, wide velcro closures or BOTH!

Vans!

DC!

Merrell! (although too narrow for me)

My Bugabootoo boots I got from Walktall are the shyt!

Now, if WT were to increase the range of CLOTHES and knock their top sizes up to 48" for trousers/jeans over a period of a couple years; I'm confident that their customer base will in turn grow.

Plus , there'd be a place to for outsizers to get decent/stylee clothes that is not a diddy corner area in a large cold and heartless bastardo national chain store!

Agreed just found the site myself after getting very annoyed on the high street yesterday. I was just thinking of booking a flight over to New York just so could go shopping without getting frustrated. My usual drill is to walk into a shop and say, right what have you got that will fit me, and then make a choice. Nothing ever fits. I've just managed to get a winter coat from High and Mighty as they seems to be getting a little better but it looks as though there is loads of choice on here. I think i'll be taking a visit down to the shop next sat. Think it might work out cheaper to drive from Leeds than to get a flight to NY. Ha
