I am on my fourth pair of Brook's Beast shoes in five years and can say they are the best out there by far. I wear a 10EW in Clark's dress shoe and a 12EEEE in this shoe, so be aware that you need to select the right size. Even if it is too long, it is the only relief a person with extra wide feet will find in athletic shoes. So far, the shoes I have owned have performed admirably in athletic activity, hiking, biking, and everyday wear. They are also fine for general weightlifting, though one might want to take them off when approaching a deadlift, as that 1+" of heel can get to you. Brooks has even managed to improve on the shoe over the years, as the first pair I owned developed holes in the insole, while subsequent pairs have held up just fine. These shoes have also helped me make it through plantar faciitis acquired while not wearing them.

All in all, the best shoe for active men with comically wide feet.
