Need Suggestions

I have a devil of a time finding shoes and boots that fit (I'm like a 12.5 4 or 5E). Anyone found a good source for boots that accommodate those sizes?

Similar problem, 8.5 EE to EEEE depending on manufacturer.  I kinda lucked out 17 years ago, which is when I bought my last pair :)

I hit a gold mine with casual shoes- "New Balance."  Only ones that seem to fit my short, wide, high feet and available from lots of places.  So impressed with one model, and so exhausted from years of frustration, I swept through local stores and the Internet and bought what might be lifetime supply.  Sealed each individually in airtight plastic for years to come.

I did the same with a particular model of Reebok running shoes...  Only ones that (IMO) were comfortable, 100% leather uppers (my feet don't seem to get along with nylon)  and didn't have racing stripes, or swoops, or logos plastered all over them.
I bought 6 each of white and black about 8 years back...  Now on last pair of each, and the model has been discontinued....  Dreading having to try out 'new' shoes again...  (First world problems, I know...)
