I am a small guy at 5'7" and 140 pounds with a 9.5 double wide foot. I have the worst time finding shoes that don't crush my feet. My shoe of choice for a long time were Saucony ride 7 and ride 8 both in wide. I would love to say it was a nice compromise between cushioning and speed, but in reality it was the only shoe in 3 running stores that was comfortable. Obviously these stores do not carry wide in everything and not all manufacturers even make a wide. I also run in New Balance Leaville v3 wide for trail running.
Saucony changed the design of the ride line and now they are way too skinny. I have a single pair of ride 7s left in the box so it's time to find a new shoe.
I'm an 1:30 1/2 marathoner and a 19 minute 5k runner. I'd love a high mileage trainer AND a race shoe as I top out at Olympic distance with NO IM aspirations. Am I stuck trying to find a new balance shoe that works? They have a pretty prolific wide selection but I just don't jive well with their fit.
TL;DR Please help me find a shoe for my flipper... I mean very wide foot.
EDIT: Neutral runner with no special cushioning needs and low arches.
