It is no secret that manufacturers of sports shoes, in addition to the size of the foot in length, often include one more parameter in their projects - the width of the sole. Depending on the shoe manufacturer, the width of the shoe or its fullness may be indicated by different Latin letters.
If you have a wide leg, then you need to pay attention to the following letter designations.
In the United States, the following designations are used:
In women's models
C - wide
D - double wide
E - very large width
In male models:
E - wide
2E - very wide
3E, 4E - the widest models
Manufacturers who produce sneakers in a big way are not well represented on the Russian market. But still there is plenty to choose from.
For example, the American company New Balance. It has long and firmly established itself in the domestic footwear industry. It is worth noting that the entire range of footwear of this company is sewn exclusively in the United States or in the UK. As they say, draw your own conclusion.

The widest sneaker available in Russia is Asics. Asics is one of the world leaders in the production of special sports shoes. The Asics Gel Nimbus is one of the best models for both indoor and outdoor running. They have excellent shock absorption. Perfect for a wide and very wide foot, and also saves its owner in the presence of flat feet. But it is worth noting the rather high price of the model.
The selection of shoes is a painstaking and creative process. With all the variety of types and models, it is worth paying attention not only to technological characteristics and technologies, but also to the simple feeling of comfort when using sports shoes. Moreover, we are talking about a specific shoe on a large foot.
