I'm thinking of moving from my Nike Pegasus to Vomero.
However, some of the reviews I have read mention a narrow toe box.
Is this just because they have wide feet?
What do people think of these shoes and is it a a reasonable replacement for the Pegasus?
Thanks,
RB

Then again some people rave about them, so each to his own.....
Very soft,bit narrow but ok for me.
8.5/10.
Anyone got a good alternative?
Asics seem to give me blisters on the arches...
Narrow toebox......??????
Jeeez - do the people that say that have flippers?
Ratbag - Asics create a pressure point on my arches too (apart from the Gel Hyper Speed which are fantastic shoes) - and the flatter last of the Vomero has really sorted that out!
Having said that - definitely get to a shop and irritate the assistants by trying on as many shoes as you can - and in different sizes!!!!
I found that the sizing even in the same manufacturer varies hugely!
My Vomeros are a 9½ and am Marathoners a 10!!!!
I've noticed the variability even between lines by the same manufacturer too - sizing does seem inconsistent.
With my Vomeros, the only problems I've had is slight rubbing under the laces after a long run. I'd like to think they'll address this with an update, as otherwise they've been absolutely brilliant for me.
I did't mention any wideness in the shoe infact i think they are spot on for me.
I did review a pair of saconey grid 3s and the toebox......well you could of held a party in there. That comment was snet to rob speddding!
I've a high instep especially on the right and the sockliner on the vomeros cut across the top of my foot, trapping a nerve until I had at it with a stanley knife. Couldn't say they were narrow in the toe box though especially if you go by the received wisdom and buy a size bigger than usual.
Course it's always each to their own with shoes but I'm happy with Pegasus for the trail and Kayanos for the pavements.
