I have the SixSixOne Launch shoes as well. They're not ultra stiff like roadie shoes, but they're stiffer than regular shoes. I wear mine to work as well and they're comfortable enough for all day wear, but I have an office job so I'm not on my feet all day. I've got wide feet too and they fit snug, not tight, but not lose either. Them and my SPD sandals are my preferred riding shoes.
