Att: Big Foots...Mtn/cross bike shoes for big feet.

What do you big footed folks use for off road riding?

I'm looking at a pair of Lake shoes that come in a 50 (15). Anyone try this brand of shoes before?

I've been using their MX220 xtreme for the past year and have no complaints. The shoes are well made and have a lugged vibram sole. They are slightly heavier than other models but the lugs makes hiking over broken ground easier than any plastic soled model that I've used. I really appreciated the soles on my last trip to Moab. The xtreme model is the first shoe I've found that accually fits my Triple E dogs so I'd recommend that model to anyone with wide feet.

The vibram sole is one of the things I liked about these. Price didn't seem too bad either compared to some of the others out there.

I wear a 47 or a 48, depending on the brand. I was never able to find a SIDI size that would work for me. A LBS guy had me try on a pair of Specialized shoes (his shop sells both Specialized and SIDI) and the Specialized was simply a better fit for me.
