Title: Wide shoes - with Rubber Cleats
Post by: i12breakfree on September 08, 2012, 02:55:02 AM: My shoe size is UK 11 , wide.
I usually wear GN shoes with for turf. Looking to buy asics or adidas shoes but want to check which ones are wider.
For running i have asics and they are perfect fit , but width is not mentioned on cricket shoes.
Any suggestions

Been using Asics for the last 12 years.

Only other shoes that were as comfy as them were the old Pony 50-50s and the old green/white Reebok ones back in the day!

Also add a half size for a bit more width.
