    Try the men's?

    I often have better luck with men's shoes when I need a wider toe box. I cycle in my various women's Keen street shoes (on my bikes with BMX pedals) but I've already assumed I'd need to buy the men's Keen cycling shoes to get a wide enough toe box.

    (right now I use men's Specialized Tahos on my bike with Speedplay Frogs)

    Ditto what Knotted said. The men's are wider in the toe box. The women's killed my little toes (blistered them). Unfortunately, the men's don't come in quite as small a size.

    Cycling shoes are generally a little narrower (as I understand it) to prevent crank interference. They didn't need to be *that* narrow, though.
