Local (So. Bay) store with big shoe selection?

I'm a bigfoot - 11-1/2 EEE to be precise. And I'm in need of some new SPD compatible shoes. Where can I find a large selection to try on in the South Bay? TIA.

Actually I too would like a recommendation on this one. I have extra wide short fore foot, and its annoying as hell trying to find a shoe. All my LBS that i know of seem to have the same small selection (almost always 200 dollar sidi).
I'm not opposed to spending $200 for a good pair of cycling shoes, but even the Sidi Megas aren't that good a fit on my flippers.
I would just love a Bay Area bike shop

That didn't carry the same Sidi, Specialized, Cdale shoes that everyone else carries.
You know who else had a really big shoe?



May be lost on some of you young-uns.

How about Sportsbasement in Sunnyvale? It's off Lawrence Expressway. I was just there today and it looked like they had a decent selection.
I actually have sidi megas for road biking, but I don't want to spend big money on mountain bike shoes when they basically get destroyed so quickly.
Dominators come in your size in wide. Look up their dealers on their site and call them all until you find them. I'm guessing you're a 44.5 or a 45? My feet are wide too, but not wide enough for Sidi's wide size. They should be perfect for you.
Nashbar is having a huge sale right now. I picked up a pair of Shimano SH-AM50 for about $74.00.
My current shoes are Sidi Dominator 5 in 46 Mega and they're marginally too narrow and short. They have never been very comfortable, they just kinda fit. A 46.5 Mega might work. But I'd like other options.

I'd buy from Nashbar but not before trying the same shoe locally.
