  1. Can anyone recommend a trail running shoe offered in narrow widths (10B
    or 10C)?

    I usually buy my running shoes from New Balance, but I can't find a New
    Balance trail running shoe narrower than D.

  2. You could try that specialty store where you get those tiny condoms.

    You might look at something like Inov8 or Walsh models. I've heard they
    tend to run narrow and tend to be light on cushioning and support. Kinda
    the reverse of most Montrails and some other US brands.

    But consider why you need in a trail shoe and what features it needs for
    your trails - mud, rock scrambling, pointy-side up rocks - or whether
    you need one at all. Many people run trails in road shoes.

    I think Icebugs run narrow also, if you need it for ice.

    without being to obtuse, have you tried a D shoe
    and found it wanting? i was running road in an 11B NB
    shoe but the only NB OffRoad shoe the store
    had when I was buying was 11 doubleE!!
    i took it, and it's fine. the extra room allows me to
    double up socks if i like and gives my toes plenty
    of stretch space.
