I hear you on the wide foot issue. I too wear about that size. I resorted to buying a pair of Lake MX101 Wide. Give Lake a call and see what they have for you. Can't loose anything by calling 1-800-804-7777. Very friendly people only wanting to make your feet comfortable.

The trick to cycling shoes is that they have a stiff forefoot. That way the pedal is spread out over the front of your foot.

I have seen some strap-on "shoe-holders" and I'll post a link if I ever find them again. Some people have literally bolted shoes to their pedals!

I ride both clipped and platform side. I make sure that I put the arch of my foot "over" the pedals and always keep my toes pointed forward (kinda like "hanging my feet of the pedals"). I do this on slow jaunts and routes I am very familiar with. The worst case is when you hit a sudden rise in the pavement. This causes the boom to go up and the legs to be forced down. That is when things get scary. And it only takes a 1" rise when your tires are up at 100psi.

I'll look for that link... but do call Lake. I think they will take returns if you haven't fit cleats to them... only size the shoe.
