Customer Reviews inov-8 Trailtalon 235

I wear a size 9 in every shoe except INOV8s (I wear size 8.5 INOV8s). I'm amazed that another reviewer said these shoes felt narrow. I have a very wide toe box and these fit fine... almost too roomy. Like all INOV8s I've had, they are toguh to get into because the back of the shoe is not as wide as the front... I have to use a shoehorn. But once I'm in, they are a perfect fit. And the soles grip like crazy! These are not springy and cushiony... you can really feel the trail. Once I'm running I forget about them completely, which is what I want.

Fits true to size for running shoes (i.e. order a half size larger than street shoes). If you have narrow feet but still like a lot of room in the toe boxes, this model is perfect for that. At first I thought the arch support might be set too far back but after the first day found I liked it. You can get a good feel for the trail under the soles, but they still provide good cushioning, and the tread is nicely grippy.

The arch support in the right shoe felt completely out of place and uncomfortable. I've had inov-8 shoes in the past but this pair just didn't fit right.

My favorite pair yet of my favorite brand of trail shoe! Please don’t quit making these. Light, minimal, no sturdy and grippy. Love them

They are very narrow and my feet are on the narrow side. I wear an 8.5 in shoes, 9 in running. The size was correct, but too tight.
