You can go with an Allen Edmonds shoe or my personal recommendation
would be the Bostonian Akron wide.

I wear dress shoes 6 days a week, 50 weeks a year (assuming I take 2 weeks of vacation). I have two pairs of Allen Edmonds, and they're fantastic shoes. They're also incredibly expensive. My everyday dress shoe is the Bostonian Akron. They can be found anywhere for about $80. If you watch, you can find them on sale for about $60.

I have extremely wide feet, and they fit well. After a couple of days of wearing them, they mold to your foot and are extremely comfortable. You have to get the wide (EEE) size though. the regular width (D) is too narrow for me.

I've lost count, but I'm either on my 13th or 14th pair of them. They have a leather sole, and you can get them re-soled. I used to have a guy who would do a re-sole for $25, but he retired. The average resole around here is in the $45 range now, so I just watch for a sale and buy a new pair instead of getting them resoled.
