When shopping shoes, size and width are essential to guide you in your choice of best fitting and comfortable shoes.

3. N (narrow), M (medium) or R (regular), W (wide), E (Extra Wide)
As you can figure out yourself, foot width can vary significantly between manufacturers and even models so if you are uncertain better contact the support to inquire in advance and look at the other customers reviews to get unbiased 3rd party opinion about the shoe quality and fit.
