After switching to using only Altra shoes (which have a very wide toe box) my feet have widened and spread out as a result. I recently tried on my old XC spikes (I have Saucont Kilkenny XC5 and some other Nike one) I notice that they feel very tight at the toes. Is this a big problem? Should I consider wider spikes or just deal with it?

Just cram your paddle feet into the shoes, Cinderella, and run your race.
Altra makes a cross country spike. I haven't heard any reviews but it's available on runningwarehouse.

Don't wear shoes that are way too small for your feet.
Most xc runners down have muscular feet duh
