I bought a pair this season. I would agree, medium width, however, I have skinny ankles and find it difficult to get a comfortable snug fit from the ankle up. As for the stiffness, my opinion is that these are more like a 110.

question #1 F3 shells are right in the middle (medium width). They also have a heat moldable liner so that does make it easy to customize to your foot. Question #2 Stiff compared to what ? I would say much stiffer than the F1 yet less than the Spirit 4. I would put it at a 95 flex
