Think that's hard to find?
My son wears size 14. In these parts, he's limited where he can shop.

I have large feet for a woman and take EEE size 10 shoes. I have
found that the default medium width for women is a B, and the default
men's medium is a D. So I get a men's boat shoe from LL Bean which is
a size smaller (like 9 1/2 wide) and that fits me.

Size 7 1/2 is very small for men's shoes - my dad wore a size 8 and he
had very small feet.

I also get shoes that are not specifically advertised as boat shoes
from catalogs like FootSmart and regular shoe catalogs.

Hitchcock Shoes in Hingham, MA. They are a mail order company and are known in
California just like they are known in Massachusetts. They sell shoes and boat
shoes up EEEEEEE and maybe wider!

I definitely recommend them!
