Looking for shoes for a duck - super wide toes

My three middle toes are longer then the big one. My foots not wide, it's all in the toes. To complicate matters my arch is in the wrong place, so shoes with lots of arch support hurt. FJ, Adidas, Nike, ECCO  either too narrow or passing off 2 sizes bigger as a wide.

Anyone have any ideas where to go next?

Any custom golf shoe makers?  (I'm used to paying $500 for custom shoes)

Anybody sell inserts to put cleats on street shoes?

Thanks!

Check out the Tour model by TRUE Linkswear... they are the most awesome pair of shoes I've ever owned (not just golf shoe, but any shoe)... for me I thought they were a bit pricey at $159 but for you normally paying $500 they should be a steal.  One of the features of the TRUE Tours is that they have a wide toe box so they may be exactly what you're looking for.  Here's a link to them.

What he said...

I have the Tours and the Stealths, and the Tours are the best for wide feet. I normally wear a 13 3EEE or 4EEE, and these fit great. Like golfing in slippers that don't slip when you swing.

True Tours Fit Perfectly!

It turns out the local Golfsmith was a dealer and had them tucked away.

Plenty of toe room and firm support with the rest of the foot. An 8.5 is an 8.5

An additional bonus: My weight transfers  to my fwd leg a lot smoother then the basketball and running shoes I was playing in with less ankle strain.

Thanks for the advice.

I'm glad that they worked out for you... where abouts in SoCal are you... just curious as that's where I am as well (Palm Springs area).

    • Yeah I agree with this. Also…as was pointed out, many probably hear about the fun of playing a sport, riding around and having drinks as a great time. I know I’ve told many newcomers that and it made them want to give it a shot. Clayton also has no idea if one or more guys needed to use a cart for a variety of reasons. They’re playing golf….that’s good enough.
    • I imagine if you got just a little bit of rain the ball was probably hydroplaning.
    • Mine? Forward. Not like he demonstrates. I didn't think he intended to stay they actually moved backwards in relation to the ground. More a relative move to the rib cage.  Sorry, Im not sure I understand what the pics demonstrates to counter what I quoted.  I also want to make sure you understand that I come from a place where I have felt for a while that I have completely misunderstood how the pelvis/torso move globally in the golf swing positionally at some point in my learning so completely open to correction.
    • Day 1 - 2024-10-01 Hit some chip shots first (with the NXT Tour type practice balls we have, so of course, all high, a little right, and not very skinny), then chipped some 9I focusing mostly on the backswing and the left wrist cupping. Just like 40-yard shots (which probably went 65 or so).
    • Day 152 (01 Oct 24) - Still dealing with the crud so I kept it simple - simple 3/4 swings with the 6i into the net and wrapping up with similar swings using hard foam balls to get some ball flight visuals (you know its getting good when 6 out 7 balls finish within a 10yd circle).  Side bar: the great thing about the Edel SMS 6i is that it lets you know when you've made solid contact and when you haven't.
