Question
Hello. I dont know if your the right person to be asking but I'll ask anyway just in case you can give me an answer. My feet are wide. I cant wear any of the shoes I would like to wear.I even just bought some new shoes in wide to go to the gym, but they are still not quite wide enough. Ive just been thinking lately about how people can wear corsets an overtime their waists will shrink. Well I was wondering if its possible to do the same with my feet. I dont want them to be tiny or anything. I just wanna do like a normal person & buy cute shoes and they actually fit.

Answer
Hi Stacy,

Wearing tight shoes will only cause problems down the line.
There are several sources for XXW shoes.  First, New balance has many widths.  You may need to turn to the internet for this one.  
Try this site:

Also, contact some Podiatrists in your area to see if they carry shoes.

So keep searching and try and get into some shoes that are comfortable.  You will avoid problems later.
