Tomir 01

I've been looking for someone to say something so thank you. I'm a bigger runner (195lbs) but I threw 775 miles on my kjerig 1.0, 750 on my Tomir 1.0 and my Tomir 2.0 are still going strong at 400. Kjerig 1 is one of the best shoes I've ever owned. I just bought a pair of mount to coast r1 for road running, which I love, and I've been trying to decide if the t1 or the kjerig 2 is my next trail shoe buy

Nnormal Tomir- my 1.0 just passed 1600km and still feel good, but starting to wear through on the upper. Got a few hundred km on the 2.0 and I like it even more than the version 1.

I wore Lone Peaks almost exclusively for years, but for past 2 years have been wearing Nnormal. The Kjerag definitely does NOT have a wide toe box, but the Tomir (the version 2 in particular) is pretty decent. I’ve worn them for several long races (80-120k) with no issues at all with my toes feeling squished and no rubbing/ blisters.

The 1 is good for hiking and walking but not great for running. Just very dead.

I tried the Peregrine for the first time this month, had blisters everywhere, probably the least fun shoes I've run in. Today I did my 10 km test run with the Tomir (1.0): a completely different league, responsive, fast, lighter, very comfortable, just a little less stable. I don't have wide feet though

Owning both I would pick Norda. My frst pair of Norda is at about 900km/560miles. Still in pretty good condition, although the outsole is a little worn down it still has lots of grip. The midsole is in a very good condition, feels responsive on trails as well as tarmac. Second pair is 550km/340mils and basically im a condition that other brands would be at around 150km or so. Tomir is really nice as well. My Tomir 1.0 lasted around 650km before I transitioned them to sneakers I wear to the office. The midsole started feeling a little stiff/flat on runs. My pair of Tomir 2.0 have about the same mileage on them as the my second pair of Norda, they seem in a slightly worse shape but not by much.

Fit and feel is going to (mostly) be a subjective thing. I have friends who run 100 milers in shoes that would cut me up in 20k and vice versa. Unfortunately with trail running, due to the ever variable nature of trails, it's a never ending hunt for shoes that are good matches for your feet. Good luck and happy hunting! edit: Whether it helps or not, my favorite shoe in my current rotation is the Nnormal Tomir's. I'm still using the 1st version and am about to hit 700km on it. The Tomir 2's are already out and addressed the only 2 issues I had with the shoe: the foam and the toe protector. I'll be getting a pair of the 2's for the spring and running them into the damn ground just like I did these first ones. My rotation right now is a mix of tomir, kjereg, peregrine, lone peaks and nikes and of them the tomirs are the only shoe that a) I can run 50 miles in without any blister / foot issues and b) are actually built strong enough to handle a series of races in a row without completely falling apart. They're like an old toyota pick up truck. Not flashy, just reliable.

I’m on my third pair of Tomir’s V1. 1400 and 1200kms on the previous pairs and my only problem was the collar began to wear away and irritate my Achilles. I kept regular size, but I believe the V2 has a slightly different toe box, which might disqualify them as an option for you.
