I,too have had to increase my shoe size to help the pain. I have found the following to be effective: Torin shoes- they have a larger front foot box so your toes can slay out and not feel so cramped. The socks I have found are called Thoros. They are much better than wearing socks inside out, they have pads of soft material inside the sock. You wash them inside out to help keep the inside fluffy. Unfortunately, both the shoes and socks are not cheap, but they have helped me immensely. The inside out sock trick does work some to save money.

Good luck. I also went from wearing size 10 shoes to size 10.5 wide on my regular new balance shoes.
