Shoes larger than a size 12 can be hard to find… especially when you want something more than your basic tennis shoe. I'll share the brands and models I've found over the years for that have made my size 16 (51) spouse happy.
A great all around walking and casual shoe. Keens offer great support and lots of toe room. Comes in sizes up to 17.

Slippers - almost none come in large sizes! Minnetonka's moosehide drivers not only come in sizes up to 16, they are tough as nails. These may be a bit $$ for slippers, but they will last for years.
