Where do I get wide shoes?

I've got wide feet, (4E) and have trouble here where shoe stores have the "Only what we have on the shelf" deal.

Does anyone know a shop which stocks wide shoes (and preferably has them discounted

)?

If not, I'll just keep wearing out the old shoes looking for a new pair.....

should try Halonen they have some "wide" and also kenkä-marski might do... of course you pay out of your ass there

and there's always "the left shoe", which measures your feet and then makes the shoes for you

I also have wide feet. But in Finland I usually just get a mad look when I ask for wide shoes.. Some American&British brands seem to have a wider understanding for different feet types.. There ARE wide shoes in the stores but they are not marketed as such, so you just have to try them on. I think several finnish brands are wider than e.g. italian or french brands..
