hi
i wear xx wide shoes and i tried all that my LBS had in stock. the ones i found that worked for me was the lake 160 cx wide. i bought one size up and there perfect for my feet. i have trouble wearing regular shoes and so far new balance are the only shoes i can wear. i just did 38 miles and the shoes felt great. i'm a novice rider with under 3 weeks of riding but shoe comfort has always been an issue with me, i have CMT and foot / shoe comfort has been an issue all my life. next time i need cycling shoes i'll go with the carbon lakes but i was afraid to buy the more expensive carbon shoes as i'm not sure if i'll this is just a fad i'm going through or a new life long hobby. so far i love the sport but the carbon shoes were a bit more than i had in the budget.
good luck
