Does anyone know if there is a brand that makes a size 50 or 52 tri bike shoe?

Found this sizing chart at: http://www2.bsn.de/Cycling/shoe-sizing.html

Looks like Sidi is the only company that makes them in a sizes 50-52, their web site is:

Guess I'm your personal shopper today, found some at:

Good luck, hope you can find something!

Well those are road shoes. I am curious about tri shoes. the tri shoes are only 48.

I guess you can take off the shoes at bike dismount like to save time in transistion but no flying off the bike into transitions then.

I wear a size 48, and they are hard enough to find.  I ended up with Specialized road shoes in a size 48.  None of the other 48's, be they road shoes or tri shoes fit properly.  While many other companies make 48's, most were too narrow for my feet.  Something to investigate before mail ordering.  I've decided to make due with road shoes until such time as I truely believe the extra seconds they cost during transition are really worth it.   By far, most of the riding (training) that I do it doesn't matter at all.  A good fit was much more important than seconds during transition.  I've been very happy with my shoes.  Good luck in the search.

I have the sidi road shoes as I am a 15ee. The buckle works pretty quick. They should be fine.

I use road shoes and am able to get my feet out, put them on top of the shoes and jump off the bike at the transition. Though I don't try to put them on while riding - that would be a disaster.

I wear a 15 2e and went with Lake. They have large sizes and wides. I bought the 50 wide and fit great. Customer service is great. Try them out, I went with a mtb shoe instead of a road shoe.. No issues..

I use the mountain bike shoe on my road bike.. easier to walk around in off the bike and you still get the road shoe feel..
