WIDE table tennis shoes

I am desperately looking for some wide TT shoes. My size is 10.5 EE. I recently started playing seriously, and have a New Balance CT563, but the shoe broke just after one hour of play!

try adidas net 80 their old school ping pong shoes from 1980 i got some for 45 dollars their wider than the indoor soccer shoes i have used, and they are really flexible

thank you JimT. Yes, as I mentioned in my opening post, I've also been using the CT653 from New Balance, but always looking for something with a thinner sole. The CT653 works well for me for Badminton, but tough to move fast in table tennis.

just to keep the forum updated, i found a japanese site which has a lot of wide 3E mizunos, check it out-http://en.rakuten.co.jp/

You said in the first post you were using 563 not 653 - perhaps a typo?

hello jimt

price is what you pay, value is what you get. :)

Not sure what it means. Will have to call and talk or order and try. another member here said he has been using mizuno wave series and he is a 2E wide.

The width of Wave Kaiserberg is equivalent to 3E. 

my xpd shoes are pretty wide - a no name chinese company got them in hk for about $30

here is the official chart, the size on the top is US

I have size 3E (foot = UK 10, US 11, European 45 or 44.5) and i use the Mizuno Wave Drive 4 in size 28.5.

The wave drive 4's  in 28.5  are exact US 10.5 in sizing.

So for me with my size 10 (4E) I would need to get Mizuno 3E shoe in 27, I guess...

I would say a 28 would be 10 USA.  Also, you will most likely be replacing the stock sole bed because they compact pretty quick.   I use a  Dr. Scholl's Diabetic   one because it is not too high in the heal area like most after market foot beds and dosn't take up too much room in the shoe. The one problem with some of the Mizuno shoes is that they may be wider ...but the actual volume is low.  For instance, as you look down at your feet from above with these shoes on......the right to left width is wider than normal shoes (they will stretch some too).  But the distance from the bottom of your foot to the top....especially in the forefoot area....is thin.  I got the after market foot beds to fit good after 2 months of wearing them 2 times per week. 

Also, some of the Mizuno shoes like the Plio ones fit 1/2 shorter than the Wave Drives for example.
