Footwear for Big Feet

Anyone with Size 13-14 (Euro 48.5) feet got any suggestions on which footwear to order ? The 3rd pair I've received are Magnum safety boots that weigh 900 grams each compared to my own Merrels I'm still using since I started,which weigh 500 grams apiece. Doing 11-12 miles a day isn't going to be pleasant in these hefty Magnum flippers! Main problem is none of them fit, Size 13 in the trainer type first sent were too small, size 14's too big and no half sizes, apparently they do the magnums in half sizes, but like I say they are very heavy, and my feet would probably sweat to pieces and disintegrate on days like today in 31 degrees of heat

i must admit magnums are a touch heavy but you don,t have to wear them in to begin with just my opinion bud

Had to laugh at that one......

But the managers certainly won't lend you those, so I suggest the OP gets dispensation to order a similar spec product privately and get the RM donation towards them.
