Looking for some recommendations for running spikes for wider feet. I have the victory 2s and they are too narrow for me (size 12). The forefoot is the part where I have unusually wide feet.
I run the 800m and 1500m but comfort will take precedence over speed.
Any ideas?
Thanks
I don't know how asian feet differ but the asian brands will cater to that type of foot - i don't know if thats for a wider foot it might be. Give mizuno a try or asics if thats the case
Altra Golden Spikes might work, they do have the wider forefoot you’re talking about like most Altras.
Never worn them though so can’t talk about quality.
My daughter has Under Armour XC spikes and they have a nice, wide, toe box instead of a pointy one.
XC spikes or XC spikeless should do the trick. They are wider than track spikes.
Thanks for the suggestions so far.
Has anyone tried the matumbo 2/3? Are they wider than victories at all?

I have! They're amazing!
Ask the Oregon runners what they wear. That's just a funny little joke because the Oregon runners are called the Ducks and ducks have wide feet, thus presumably rendering wide spikes necessary.
What about the Brooks The Wire v4?
Maybe a little but still wide and pointy.
Brooks think a foot is shaped like a pointy thin garden spade , where your middle toe is the longest part of the foot.

Try the Victory 3s. I tried on a pair last week and they’re wider than my Matumbo 3s, which are crushingly narrow for my wide right foot.
