Go get boot fitted. Don't ask newschoolers. Never cheap out on boots and buy before getting fitted/trying them on.

you can have my 27.5 spks for $350. 27.5 is pretty much universal fit so you should be good

SPKs or Booters. I have a wide ass foot and I love my booters. I had to have them punched out a bit after like half a season, but they feel like sex on my feet now.

spk and booter are good for wider foots but DO NOT buy them without trieng them online personally i would never buy either of these boots even if they did have the perfect fit.

this, spks are known for having bigger last 108 or so i think but you cannot know for sure with out going to a boot fitter and getting a boot that will fit your foot. i cant stress that enough i once bought a boot because it was a good deal turned out it didn't fit my foot at all and i was stuck being miserable with aching feet all day for two years because i couldn't afford new boots. dont make the same mistake i did and go to your boot fitter you wont be disappointed.

no "park" boot will come that size I believe. just get fitted with the correct boot, you will be much happier than if you restrict your search to "park-only" marketed boots.

SPK's fit my wide-ass hobbit-feet pretty nicely. But +1 for go to a store and try some on. Your foot mightn't even be that wide, maybe you just have some narrow lasted boots at the moment.

I have a both of these boots and absolutely love them after switching the liners. My calves were too big for the intuitions that came in the booters, but found that they fit very nicely in the spk's and I've heard of quite a few pros that rock the intuitions in their spk's. And I love my booters with the salomon liners because they allow me to cinch them up but dont kill my calves.

However you still want to go to a boot fitter because they will get you what is best for you're feet. And trying to choose a boot solely on the recommendations of newschoolers would be a bit silly.

If you want a wide, stiff boot I highly recommend the Dalbello Proton 12. Intuition liner, 120 flex index, and wide enough for my 112mm last.
