Lightweight trail shoes for wide feet
I got some Keen mid height boots, which are great for wider feet. But I am now looking for some lightweight trail shoes for casual trail walking.
So far I have found Asics Sonoma 5 (4E width) and a brand called Altra (never heard of them before, but they seem to have a following) being sold locally.
There are other model, which have wide options, but have only found regular/D width locally.
Anyone with wide feet have any recommendations?
I've been buying the Sonoma 4E's for years. Great budget trail runners for wide feet.
The Kahana 4E's had fragile soles. Don't know if they're still sold.
Got the Sonoma 5 4Es at the ASICS outlet shop in Dressmart Onehunga.
But even though they are 4E they are still relatively narrow (I ended up getting US11, where I would normally get US10 or 10.5)
Also tried on a pair of New Balance ones, which had proper wide fit. But felt cheaper/flimsier (and a little more than I paid for the ASICS)
I use the Solomon XA Pro 3D wide trail shoes and think they're pretty good.
