It is pretty (da**) hard to get shoe tat fit my feet in Singapore. I have a size 12~13(US), 4E (if i remember correctly this width correctly) feet.
So is there any, if any at all, a place to get me a badminton shoe here in Sg?

Yonex shoes are not designed for wide feet.

Apparently the Yonex 80W is pretty wide. At shuttle-house.com they only have it up to 29cm which I think is US11. I have no idea if it's available in Singapore (it isn't in the US).

The Yonex 91M is supposed to be wider than most Yonex shoes but probably not as wide as the 80W. In the US you can get the 91M up to size 13, I don't know about Singapore.
New Balance makes an indoor court shoe in 4E the CT653. I also don't know about it's availability in Singapore, you could buy it from the US at shoebuy.com but I think that the international shipping would be pretty pricy. http://www.shoebuy.com/new-balance-ct653/139489
You might want to try the Mizunos also. The Wave Lightning 4 is almost wide enough for my foot (I bought it one size large).

Many thanks... Finding a comfortable shoe for me is always a problem even finding a normal walking shoe is difficult let alone badminton shoes.
Thanks for the help, i'll look up on the shoes.

Sorry bud, 4E? only brand I can think of is New Balance. They do not make badminton shoes. However, this is prob the best shoes for you.
