Oh Carol Thank you so much. Now I know where to look. I was going to try Zappos. My feet have changed so much since I had the BKTR. I will look for the diabetic socks too.
Again thank so much for your help/
I will let you know how I get along.
Hugs, Vicki

Hi:
Try Zappos.com and search for wide width shoes. Easy return policy and shipping. Some easy socks are: "fluffies" by Gold Toe. I have found them a the Gold Toe Outlet in Massachusetts (Wrentham to be exact),Macy's and Walmart (if I get lucky); maybe the website may ship to you. Also: Target carries Diabetic white socks near the pharmacy. They are usually found hanging on an endcap.
My dad is a diabetic and these are THE ONLY SOCKS HE BUYS!! he has 4E wide feet size 12 and they fit like a dream without problems.
Good luck and let me know what you think.
Regards, carol

Hi guys and gals, I have a question and hope someone can help me. 3 yrs out from BKTR....didnt work for me. When your knees are not right...your back hurts all the time.
OK...I am having a hard time finding shoes to fit. I have been wearing my little furry cotton booties alot since I had the knees done. I have one pair of NEW BALANCE sneakers and they are just about gone now.
Seems like my feet have spread out some during this time. I cannot find shoes to fit my foot. Also, being diabetic I need seamless toe cotton socks that are a wide width.
Does anyone else have trouble finding shoes to fit ?? I have a short very wide foot. I think maybe a size 6 width 2E and ordered some from NEW BALANCE and they hurt my feet so have to send them back.
Does anyone know a good place to find a small size wide width shoe ?? Also, diabetic cotton socks wide width. I have searched the internet and cant find anything. Anyone else have this problem ??
If you can help I would be so greatful. Please anyone ??
