After years of searching for anyone who supplies size 12-13 and 6E or larger, finally ICS shoes was found. I use comfortably a 9E and after talking to a customer service rep, ordered the men's item 9501-blk-13-9e. two things stand out: first is the quality of materials/workmanship; padded shoe collar, real leather, and shoe laces that are of real material that can be tied and stay tied. Second, to ics credit, there are too many custom inserts! any other company would charge for the three different levels of providing comfort, depending on what a customer needs. My only modification is a need for 'firmer' insert, and had to find that rigid style elsewhere., whereas the standard ones provided were a welcome surprise. Thanks to the lady taking my order (cfl3005), she took the time to examine multiple styles until a satisfactory model was found, and was patient and kind to answer all my questions.
The only follow-up question is there was to be a separate itemized list of other shoes i could purchase, and it has not yet been mailed. please refer to my order number and do so at your convenience.
After losing so much money on other products, of lesser quality, the truism does hold true: "you get what you pay for'., and ICS is my new only 'go to' shoe provider....thank you with comfortable gratitude! mpp
