Big sized shoes from m/o companies

Can anyone recommend a good mail order firm that sell shoes from size 12 upwards. Specifically I am after mens fashionable styles, have had some bad experiences recently with very poor quality products which were not cheap, either the soles peeled off or the stitching came apart.

Can't comment about men's shoes! but I used to deal with this company in the past and didn't have a problem with the shoes I bought (have since found a better company for my particular needs- but the new one only stocks ladies shoes.)
Worth looking at this one, if nothing else:

Thats the very firm I have had the trouble with poor quality shoes, their refund policy is all well and good but I live and work in unusual parts of the world so "simply post them back to us" is no use to me, moreover when I buy a pair of shoes I don't expect to have to 'run them in' for 3 weeks to see if they will last.......one pair were the Gant branded ones where the stitching came apart up on the tongue, can't remember the others but they were a creamy brown colour where the sole came apart.....all within the first couple weeks of use.
As I say they offered to refund them but being on the other side of the world this wasn't an option0 -
oops sorry! I dealt with that firm a long time ago and never had any problems with them then. Obviously things have changed.Being polite and pleasant doesn't cost anything!
