They are out! page

I can't make up my mind to get them now or wait until the price comes down a little. These will be next for sure though in my minimal shoe buying endeavors. I currently run in a Puma Street Kosmos. Before those, I ran in the Five Fingers. Here is the link.

New balance is usually pretty good about wide sizes. Not in this line however. No way my foot goes into a "D".

I bought the Merrell Trail Glove's two weeks ago and have been wearing them as much as possible. They are damn near form fitting but give plenty or room for someone with wide feet like myself. I know you didn't mention them but I figured I would just chime in. Good luck with your choice.

Compared to Five Fingers, these are hugely padded and have a noticeable heel lift and toe spring. They are basically racing flats with a wide toe box, not a particularly minimal shoe. That may what you're looking for, just be aware if you're mail ordering.

The Merrells are more minimal, about like a Trek, but also have annoying(to me) toe spring.

i saw these in person last week and they are for sure next on my list!

What is the issue with toe spring?

Nice looking shoes

I'm very interested to try these but I'm hesitant to buy because I know Inov-8 is releasing a road shoe later this spring. From what I've read, the Inov-8 model will have zero toe drop.

I'm excited to eventually compare them both side by side.

Let us know, Kyle, how you like the NB's!

Just picked mine up yesterday:

My decision was between the Minimus and the Merrell Trail Glove. This is a pretty comprehensive comparison of the two that I found useful:

I know this thread is in the fitness section, but while looking these up I found that they also have a "walking" version of the NB10 that would be cool for everyday use if you want something that looks like a fairly normal sneaker. Men's Women's
