Good shoe, but not right for my foot

Pearl Izumi Peak XC Trail Running Shoes - Men's

Pearl Izumi Peak XC Trail Running Shoes - Men's

Rating for this product: 3 November 7, 2009

This is a really nice shoe: very comfortable and can wear for a long run right out of the box. However, what I found is the toe box is very wide. I have a wide foot and when I laced these up, I found that the lace loops got very close to each other. I also found the material fairly stretch and so the shoe didn't provide much support when running turns. I found the shoe constructed much more like cross between a road racing flat and a road trainer. It is light, but for a trail shoe, this shoe lacks the luggy tread needed for any kind of rugged trail. It also lacks forefoot cushioning and rock plate. These shoes would be good for smooth trails such as a rails to trails trail, but not the rooty, rocky, and some muddy single track forest trails I run in the Finger Lakes upstate NY area.
