Does anybody make water shoes that will fit my big *** feet??? I wear a men's 14, but could probably even use a 13 if I couldn't find a 14. Is there a reason that companies don't make water shoes over a 11 or 12??? WTF??? [Mad]

Overton's sells shoes up to size 13. Maybe they can special order a 14 for you.

www.overton.com

Go to the PWC section and look under "footwear."

I wear a size 13 so I don't know if this will help. I actually wear Dive Boots. Paid about $50 3 years ago and still going stong. They seem to be lighter than the SLWW boots. They are the high top style so I don't bust up my ankles when I'm acting like an arse on the ski. I love em. My wife wears low cut dive boots that slip on. Mine zip up the inside.

ditto the dive boots... try to find the ones that actually have a sneaker sole, there very nice... only complaint "some" may have with high tops is that depending upon the cut and how one fills in the neoprene material, for some, once submerge in water they will fill up in the voids if there any, and that can result in holding a concederable amount of water... guess one could put a few drain holes, regardless they are a great alternate for shoes for jetsking.

The dive boots have the tennis shoe like soles. I've tried the wrestling boots in the past but I kept punching holes in the toes. It might just be my riding style. They were comfortable though. I still hold to the dive boots. So far they have been the best bang for the buck.

P.S. mine are the very HIGH top kind. They go about 3-4 inches above my ankles. The water can be an issue but I've just gotten in the habit of lifting my legs up when I first get on and the water runs right out.

I do a lot of foot draggin' in the water and a lot of gofy S*** that I am grinding my toes in the gunwhales and stuff. I think that is why I shredded the wrestling boots so quick. The boots that I wear have a rubberized toe over the neoprene that comes back about 1-1 1/2 inches. It's worn like **** but still no toes peeking out. This is going to be the 4th season for them.

P.S. I agree with you though. There are a few people I would like to put a boot up there arse but... like you said...that's a different story.

I found some I think I'm gonna get... they are Nike ACG water shoes, and are available up to a 14. I found them in Eastbay for only $14.99!!! Best of all, they look like they will match my ski since they are gray and red. Probably gonna get them today.

Here you go guys, just ordered mine. Only $21.98 w/ shipping. They also had a pair that were all black, and a pair that were black and gray, but those were more. Anyways, here is the link, and it says they have these in 12, 13, and 14 for this price!!! I think the others might have gone to 15...
