This seller on ebay is selling some trailroc 235's in extra wide. I didn't think that inov8 ever made wides. I sent the seller a message and the seller insists they are extra wide. Does anyone know for sure if Inov8 made the trailroc 235 in wide at one point? If it's really a wide then I'm excited because I have wide feet. here is the listing: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Inov-8-Trailroc-TM-235-Mens-Trailroc-Running-Choose-Color-SZ-/171873901503?ssPageName=ADME:X:eRTM:US:1123

Not that I know. The Trailroc 235 uses their Anatomic/widest Standard last so maybe that is already equal to E+.

Thanks, I have used the trailroc 150 and it was too narrow. I don't know if the fit is the same or not.

Here's my experience with the Trailroc before inov8 switched over to the standard fit. The anatomic last was cut the same for all the Trailroc models, but the upper materials caused the fit to feel different. The soft mesh on the 235 / 245 had more stretch than the nylon on the 150. The extra padding on the 255 caused the heel cup to feel tighter than the 235 / 245. I don't have experience with the standard fit versions of the Trailroc range, but I suspect that the widths will be essentially identical. If the 150 was tight, the 235 will loosen up somewhat over time… But you may want to try some on from a vendor with a decent return policy rather than an eBay merchant just because it's a "bargain".

Yeah I might give the 235 a try either way. I can size up to get the width, I have tons of room in the toes then, but that isn't a huge issue with a shoe that has no specific flex point.
