Brawn/ Big and Tall/ Plus Size Male (Accessories, Casting, Clothing, Media, Modeling) Lifestyle Blog: April 2017

I remember the NOT so GOOD old days of going into the Men's Shoe section at a department store and hearing these dreadful words; "I'm sorry but we do NOT carry size 15 boots, shoes or sneakers!! You would think the sales man had a megaphone broadcasting and putting strong emphasis on size 15. Society is not aware of what Men of Size deals with when going shopping, especially for shoes. Throughout Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and other social media platforms, I see so many postings like: where can I purchase a size 17 shoe?, my son wears a size 14 shoe, where can I purchase him some shoes? The keys words: WHERE CAN I PURCHASE SHOES FOR BIG FEET is repetitive in the Big and Tall Community.

I hear the Big and Tall Community frustrations of not knowing where to purchase shoes for men with BIG FEET. This is why I have personally researched to find a company that represents Men of Size with BIG FEET.

Introducing ODDBALL. Their slogan says it all: BIG SHOES FOR BIG FEET. Located in Portland, Oregon, ODDBALL specializes in big shoes for men who have LARGE FEET. They carry sizes 13 to 20. Widths are B-Narrow, D-Medium, EE-Wide,EEE- Extra Wide, EEEE-Extra Wide and EEEEEE. Do not adjust your laptop, smart phone or PC...... ODDBALL specializes in big shoes for men who have LARGE FEET. T

This is a great opportunity for both the Big & Tall Community and ODDBALL because this is their first time collaborating with MEN of SIZE. Normally ODDBALL would attract the Tall Men as customers. This is a win win situation for ODDBALL and MEN of SIZE. In addition to Boots, Sandals, Shoes, and Sneakers, ODDBALL also carries Apparel, Socks and Insoles. They have a list of various Colors, Styles and Brands of shoes and sneakers to select from.

I am super proud of my size 15 4E (Extra Wide) FEET. ODDBALL carries my favorite Brand..... NEW BALANCE!!!

One of the struggles of being a Brawn/Plus Size/Big and Tall Man is finding boots, shoes, socks and sneakers that fit. Having BIG FEET can be a nightmare. The frustrations and disappointments of going into shoe stores, only to be told; "I'm sorry sir, we do not have your size". As a Men of size I can totally can relate. I'm a Man of Size and I have BIG FEET!!! SIZE 15 WIDE... sometimes 16 depending on the cut of the boot, shoe or sneaker. Well, I have some great news for the Brawn/Big & Tall/Plus Size Male Community!!!!

Meet Adrian Coutler: Founder & CEO of XL FEET. Adrian is part of the Brotherhood and knows first hand how difficult it can be to find shoes for men with BIG FEET. I met Adrian a few years ago when I had my first Blogger page. I am proud to see he has taken XL FEET to another level and his commitment to the Big and Tall Community. Adrian wears a size 16 EEE. As a child Adrian's mother could not find any shoes that would fit his size. There was a point where Adrian would have to go the Fred Flinstone route and go to school barefooted. Shoveling snow in sneakers because he could not find any store that had Boots in his size, Adrian decided to take matters into his own hands by creating XL FEET.

Adrian created XL FEET in 2009 in theh back room of his house.
