Merrell - MTL Skyfire

I'm excited to try these out. I loved the MTL Skyfires, but mine were pre-Matryx and just disintegrated.

You described my feet to a T. I have relief on Salomons in the past. I’m waiting on an order of Hoka Speedgoats (5) as I wanted to try something new. For very technical, I purchased a pair of Merrell Skyfire Matryx which are amazingly narrow and light. I also wear specialized insoles in all shoes, which I highly recommend.

Over the years I’ve worn trail runners from Merrill and Salomon, or standard running shoes from Nike and NB. A comfortable fit was the main criteria. Even on wet ground I’d rather have fast drying sneakers than boots.

I actually have those Merrels in blue. I love them.

I wouldn't know haha. I have some wide feet and have no problems. About 100 miles of trails and they look like they are brand new besides mud stains.

I’ve got two pairs of trail runners 1 merrell and 1 Nike Pegasus gtx. Both 9.5ik size. The merrell are roomier but have a slightly harder sole. The Nike have a softer sole but are tight across the width of the foot. So as others have said try and get to a running shop and try them on with different types of socks.
