Toebox Shape
Tapered
Narrow and secure through the main body of the shoe but surprisingly roomy around the toes. Best for narrow-to-average midfeet that still need good toe space.
Pros: Excellent race lockdown, generous toe room for a supershoe.
Cons: Wide midfeet may struggle despite the roomy front.
