I treated myself to my first pair of nice shoes as a graduation gift to myself. I picked up some AE Strands in 10D from Nordstrom and thought they were the right size because they were comfortable. I got home and started looking at pics online and realized I had a huge gap in my lacing compared to others I've seen. Nordstrom doesn't have any wide sizes in stock, so I need to buy online. I have a good amount of free space in the toe area and I'm thinking of going down to 9.5EEE. Will the jump in width be enough to offset this large gap in the lacing? Should I stick with a 10EEE instead or would just a jump to E close up the gap? For comparison, I have some Florsheim 10EEE Imperial wingtips, but I can't remember the exact model, and they have a small gap in the lacing, probably about 1/4 inch.

You need a larger size.
