Wow, I've found one blessing for being at home with pneumonia (sp) -- I found possible shoes (my EE wide feet) for riding!!! I seldom get time to read everything / every listing on CR - life is too busy, but this creepy crud has slowed me down a lot.....

I called Reynolds ( from the US: 011 44 1908 647 170 - honestly); website: http://www.reynoldsshoes.co.uk - and spoke with Jo - such an enthusiastic young lady! she gave me the info.

First, the order form is on the website; second - find a Clark's shoes dealer and try on "traditional" Clark's made on English lasts to measure your size - British size is (not accurately) 1/2 size larger than US sizing - but not always! She said that their shoes are wider than traditional "continental" last shoes.

I hope that helps others that have been on the holy grail search (let's see: Brooks saddle, classic shoes, quill pedals (and clips), wool (CR!) jersey(s) (all so see a new group at http://www.rapha.cc/ ); steel frame - all the comforts of the world!
