Well, finally...
...I gots the shoes!
And very luckily, they are wide enough. Northwave Core Plus Wide. Shoe shopping can be a real pain in the arse when you have wide feet. Glad I found these (with a discount), because the fit feels great. I am slowly playing around with/adjusting cleat position, and am super excited to get rolling with the Looks. Tooling around on my street, everything feels very encouraging so far.
If anyone else has excessive foot girth, or a squarish toe line, I suggest checking these out.
