DZR Shoe question

I prefer mid-top spd shoes for all but doing the roadie thing and my old Diadoras are starting to fall apart. One of the few mid-top options out there are the DZR Ovis and Strasse shoes. Does anyone here have any experience with them? Specifically, I need to know how wide they are, especially in the toe box, relative to most cycling shoes.

If you know of any other wide, mid-top, spd compatible shoes, I would appreciate the input as well.

I have the GMT-8 and super wide feet. They aren't as wide as I would like them, but they stretch out a bit when walking. I'd honestly just prefer a wider shoe.
