Tall girl has sizes up to 13, which may not help. I am size 12 girls and mostly turn to the internet for shoes. I live in Canada too and usually by from canada.zappos.com or planetshoes.com. But size 14 ouch, I feel for you.

I wear size 14 too and it sucks trying to find shoes.
I gave up locally and had to find some online.
Good luck!

Zappos, Zappos, Zappos. Tons of shoes, tons of sizes, and a fantastic return policy. As a size 13 women's myself I sort of feel your pain, and they've been really helpful.

Check out barefoot tess. You can occasionally find some on sale for a reasonable price and they have nice shoes in large sizes.

My therapist suggested getting shoes made. Shouldn't cost much more than good quality off-the-shelf large sizes from what I have seen, and if they are good quality they should last a long time. I am thinking of wardrobe basics here, boots, black heels etc.

I've often considered that myself, being a 13w/14 mens size. To me, I don't really feel that I'd want to wear heels, that's just my shtick being as tall as I am, but as for normal shoes, I know a bit of jiggerypokery and crafting can turn a pair of mens boots into a nice pair of women's boots. Then again, not everyone is experienced with amateur shoe cobbling, so finding a site can likely be helpful.
