Thanks for the thorough review. There aren’t that many Tomir 2 reviews out there, and this is the most informative so far that I have seen. The real question is though; do I already have too many shoes?

Thank you! That question makes me laugh, because I just looked at my “army of shoes” the other day and I asked the same :))

@HungaroExplorer6 ай бұрын
I don’t think I ever ran 1000km in one pair of shoe but I am happy to hear that you did. The Tomir is definitely a rugged, long lasting shoe, just like the Kjerag.

@@HungaroExplorer how would you compare these with the Hoka Speedgoat for wet and slippery trails?
@HungaroExplorer5 ай бұрын
That’s a good question. Believe it or not, I never used Speedgoat before. For me it is just “too much of a shoe”, too bulky. They have Vibram soles just like the Tomir with a different pattern. They are two very different shoes, but can’t comment much on the Speedgoat since I only tried them in a store :)
@scottgh5 ай бұрын
@@HungaroExploreryes, the Speedgoats are bulkier. Other brands seem to have improved their treads a lot, so there are more good alternatives. Thank you for your reply.

I have both and think its worth the price. maybe id consider the 1.0 for an everyday shoe but again the comfort is better in the 2.0

I’m a massive Speedgoat fan but defected to Tomir 2.0 for my upcoming 100k mountain race. Comfy, grippy and light (comparatively). Saying that, the Speedgoats are going in the drop bag for the halfway Checkpoint, just in case! Great review. 👍🏼👏🏼

Thank you for your review. I just bought Tomir 2.0 (1 size up) I’m very happy the way up-hill but the way down-hill It hurts my toes so bad😢 even I wear trail socks. Any suggestions please let me know 🙏🏽
@HungaroExplorer5 ай бұрын
There are couple reasons why it can hurt your toes on the downhill. If the shoe is too small, probably not in your case. If the shoe doesn’t have a secure fit and your foot moves in the shoe. If you have a size bigger it might be too big so your foot moves in the shoe. I use my regular number and it fits nicely. Not sure what else to say.

Thanks for this review. incredible quality and very clear. Trying to decide between this (Nnormal Tomir 2.0), Salomon Ultra Flow, Asics Trabuco Max 3, and Merrell Agility Peak 5. They'll be used 60% for hiking and 40% trail running with a bit of road here and there. In the UK, where usually its a bit muddy/mucky. Your opinion?
@HungaroExplorer6 ай бұрын
Thank You! I am very happy that you appreciate all the work put in this video. UK mountains can be often wet, so the Salomon Ultra Flow is out. It is the most cushioned shoes from all, but the traction is more for gravel type, light trail. (I have a review on my channel) The Agility Peak 5 and Tomir 2 is your best option in my opinion for those trails. They both have Vibram Megagrip which works very well on wet, rocky terrain. The Merrel will be cheaper but the Tomir 2 is way more durable and more scramble ready. I haven’t run in Asics yet. I hope this helps.

Hi! Thanks for the very informative review. Looking for a Trailhiker that is good in hot and humid weather (going to Peru in November). My issue is I have pretty wide feet - mostly wore Altras in recent years, but not convinced by their quality. Can you comment on the width of the fit on the Nnormal Tomir?
@HungaroExplorer4 ай бұрын
I used to like Altras but not anymore. The quality is not as good, but for me the toebox is just too wide…My feet is borderline normal/wide so I can get away with not as wide toe box shoes. For me the Tomir 2 feels wide enough with plenty space in the toe box. If you have very wide feet that might ne not enough. You should try to see how you like it.

I could only afford Tomir 1.0 as the price is just 60% of the 2.0. I wear Prodigio for nearly 200k and found the midsole is a bit hard. I am looking for a softer midsole (coz speedgoat5 is my first and previous trail shoes). Could u compare Tomir 1.0 and Prodigio?
@HungaroExplorer13 күн бұрын
I just returned my Prodigio after 250 miles on the trail because the shoe lace channel broke on both of the shoes while I tried tightening them…La Sportiva did send me a new shoe thankfully :). I love the Prodigios. I really like the midsoles, I think they are soft enough but not too soft. Comparing it with the Tomir 1.0 it is hard. Two very different shoes, but the Tomir’s midsole is pretty hard compared to the Prodigio’s… The grip is better on the Tomir and it is more durable. I still wear mine, but for running I prefer the Prodigios. These are my thoughts.
@gunnersgogogo488213 күн бұрын
