    Sidis DO come in Mega sizes less than 40 because I have 38s in a Mega. Maybe this has changed since I bought my shoes 3 years ago, but usually i wear 36 or 37s. The Sidi mountain shoes I originally had were causing my feet to swell and go numb, so I bought the Road version of the Dominators in a 38 mega when i got new pedals. They are perfect and I can wear Woolie Bully socks with them with no problems.

    Robyn Maislin - I purchased mine last year and the 40 was the smallest size. In the 2007 catalog there are no sizes available in the mega wides below 40. I guess they did change their size offerings after you were able to get your shoes. Bummer for folks smaller than 40.

    I have wide-ish feet--meaning that in some brands/styles I need wide sizes and in some I don't. My cycling shoes are Diadora, which seem to have fallen out of popularity lately, but they fit me and feel great, so I'm sticking with them.

    I like this thread...

    New Zealanders typically have wide feet... but I need to go check what my shoes actually are - they are both second-hand.

    A couple of sons have wide feet, so this is a great "research thread" for me.

    I know your pain

    My foot is a women's D. Most shoes are a B width. In general women's shoes aren't narrower than men's overall, but actually narrower at the heel only. The narrow heel works for me, but I need a wider toe box.

    I have had Specialized and Shimano. My shimanos are too narrow and too long. Might go back to Specialized and buy a larger size. There are also custom shoes:

    http://www.d2customfootwear.com/bike.html
    And whoa Lake has some they call custom.
    These are all $500 shoes.

    You'd think for half the price you could get a cycling shoe in a d width. Sheesh.

    If you find another solution, the magic shoe, let us clompers know!

    Do you think? That's odd because where women's shoes don't fit me is acrosss the toes, not the heels. It's that front part that's been wonderfully wider in men's shoes for me, thank heavens :-)
