    My brother is a 13 as well and i know he got fancy shoes in clarks. I'm not sure about nice casual shoes but clarks might have some. Worth a shot. Theres also another place in town, i'll ask him in the morning and edit it in later!

    dubarry and wangler do alot of there shoes in them sizes.... go into a family run sort of shoe shop... they usally get in all sizes... and sometime order shoes in... when i worked in a shoe shop.. if someone asked for a size 13 or 14 or 15 id just bring all the shoes we had in that size....

    Heathers on the Quays down near the Four Courts do large shoes, I'm not sure how nice they are, but it's worth a shot! They do Dubarry and things too. Best of luch, I have marginally large feet, and everything nice seems to be narrow or stop at an 8, so I sympathise. :)

    Im a large 12 as well and its a real pain in the arse buying shoes.

    I generally use clarkes on grafton street, but I just ask them right, what have you got in a 12 and then pick something.

    What really winds me up is when shop assitants come back and say, we have it in a 10 will that do? ehhh no! >(

    Cripps in Terenure also sell shoes for the larger man.
