grrr.
It's crazy, I get shoes at Payless Shoe Store in west Michigan - but can't find shoes that fit in Houston.
My feet are larger than average, but I wouldn't say they're crazily huge - size 10 wide width. But I fall just enough outside the norm that it's a serious pain to find anything that fits. Any shoes at Naturalizer that don't look like they would be bought by a nearly blind octogenarian doesn't come in wide width in size 10. It's crazy.
When I went home to west Michigan over the holidays the first thing I did is buy shoes. There's enough Dutch people with enormous feet there that I found two pair without any problem.
Okay, just so long as you are covered. I'd say it's the combination of size and width that throws off the Naturalizer- your feet would be normal here in NY too, we've got tons of Payless and other stores.

OK, random off-topic rant:
Why the f### have there been so many "hurr srs bznis" threads in the OTD recently. I know that *most* of the people who start them have good intentions and want to see other people's opinions, but come on, you know they're just going to devolve into flamewars.
What's the deal with all of the gloom, doom, and anger? I get enough of that in real life, and I don't appreciate seeing it here.

I have too many that I don't wear already... What I really need now is a better shoe organization method.
And possibly some more shoes.
Hmmm, an Efficient Shoetree for a SupaStah! entry? Too bad you both aren't among the judges.

Huh. Could've sworn there was a big red button around here somewhere.
Oh well. I wonder what this little blue one does...
Push the order everything in the warehouse button.

This is why we are asking for a subforum for Serious Discussions: we'll close that magic triangle, and never be bothered again. Have you posted in support of that request?

No. I don't want to get involved in another flamewar. Especially a flamewar about stopping flamewars.

There's been no flames so far. Plus it's in the more visible Website Feedback section; if it started getting toasty, I imagine a Paizo Powers-That-Be would step in pretty quick.
