Mizuno Women's Wave Shadow Dazzling Blue / White Orange Ankle-High Running - 6M

I have a narrow foot, and the Wave Shadow have been awesome. I run more trail than road; and while most folks would recommend an official "trail" shoe, I've done technical half, full marathon and 50k in these shoes and been happy with their performance. They dry relatively quickly after running through streams, have decent grip for rocks and roots, and most of all put my foot in a happy neutral position. The fit is stable and supportive yet neutral. The one factor I'd wish for is a wider toe box. However, all shoes I've tried so far with wider toe box do not fit nearly as well in the heel and across the arch as the Wave Shadow. I'd recommend these for trails or roads, and anyone doing long distance. I trained for 50k+ in these, and had them about 8 months before they started to fall apart in the toe area.
