Famous British shoe brand since 1825. Clarks stores may have little or no size 9s in stock, you can get size 9 shoes online, in standard and wide fit. Unfortunately they're doing far fewer 9s now. While I haven't bought any recently, I can recommend Clarks for comfortable everyday shoes especially their Unstructured and Cloudstepper ranges. I still wear some of my Clarks shoes 10 years later! Free UK returns.
