Is the toenail still blacking up? Did you try to get wider box shoes? And maybe the Ininji socks that cover each toe individually?

Yes on the socks front but no on the shoes as I am a 15 and can't even get that size now days never mind any bigger. It seems most manufacturers make up till 14 UK now.

Tried using toe foam protectors and that seems to make the problem worse maybe as they are being squashed into the shoes more.

This seems to have size 16 trainers. Not sure what you are after but they do seem to exist.

I need football shoes for astro turf. Can't wear trainers as they will slip.

Argh, I just lost a large update, try these to see if they can help:

http://www.walktall.co.uk/

http://bigfootshoes.co.uk/

Or contact the manufacturers direct to see what they have and if they have a custom department.

Tried both of them before. Contacted Nike also. They all go up to 14 only. So basically I need bigger shoes. Anyone know of any USA based websites that ship to the UK and have big sizes? I tried searching but they all seem to go up to 14 in Astro turf shoes.
