Inov8 X-TALON 210 Trail Running Shoes The X-Talon 210 is a lightweight, super-flexible running shoes designed for racing at high speed overall soft and extreme terrain. This model features Inov8' new StickyGrip rubber outsole, providing better grip than its predecessor over both wet and dry underfoot conditions. Inov8 Shoe Fit Scale For technical footwear, a good fit is essential to enhance your performance. Inov8's new Shoe Fit Scale makes it easier to find the perfect fitting shoe. All Inov8 shoes are designed with Met-Cradle technology to lock down the mid-foot for a stable hold, where they differ is in the toe box. The shoes are now graded from 1 to 5, Grade 1 representing their closest, most precise fit and Grade 5 representing the widest fitting toe box. The lower the number on the scale, the narrower the fit, which ensures minimal internal movement of the foot when running fast on technical terrain. Shoes with the higher numbers on the scale will suit athletes with a wider foot and those wanting that extra comfort in the toe box. This wider toe box allows the toes to splay for increased stability when lifting heavy weights. It's also perfect for longer runs and races when toes begin to swell. Inov8 have graded the X-TALON 210 Trail Running Shoes as Grade 2. Breathable Mesh Upper Any sweat or water inside the shoes can escape via the flexible, breathable upper materials ensuring a lightweight, super-comfortable feel. The mesh allows air to fully permeate the entire shoes, providing a constant supply of fresh, cool air whilst simultaneously pushing out hot, muggy air. The welded overlays and met-cradle work in tandem to deliver a secure fit with increased durability. Additionally, they work endlessly to ensure the midfoot section of the shoes locks the foot down in place to provide a more stable and comfortable ride, whilst preventing any slipping from occurring within the shoes. The flexible upper materials and gusseted tongue are non-water absorb

Not quite what's on the label
My wife wanted these shoes after seeing an advert in a mag. We searched and eventually found them on Amazon.(same shoe same colour) Ordered a pair which arrived in good time, however they were bright orange. Nothing like those advertised. Contacted the company who informed us that was how the shoe was shown on the companies web site. Not true, the shoes were not even the colour as shown on the box. Shoes now owned by our grandaughter.

Worth it
They are a good fit, and easy to clean. I use mine in all my OCR mudruns and half of my Cross country, they have been perfect for them.

Should be an amazing shoe!
I've loved X-Talons for years and was very disappointed when the 190 was discontinued, so when the 210 was announced as it's successor I was excited. The main flaw in the 190 was the upper which had a tendency to tear, but the grip and feel of the shoe was so incredible the upper never bothered me, the 210 is the opposite, the new upper is incredible and very durable (they borrowed the upper from the old Road X-treme 138 which was almost indestructible), but the new 'sticky rubber' is just too soft and wears down unacceptably fast, if Inov8 had simply used the same rubber as the old 190 they'd have made an amazing shoe, but amazing the 210 definitely is not.
