Inov8 mudclaw 300

Mine have just arrived.. first run out tomorrow am.. it's certainly muddy here in the Dark Peak.. will keep you posted.

Current 272s just about bitten the dust now so ordered a pair of these. £80 at PBs seems pretty reasonable. Could certainly do with the grip, it's a mudfest out there at the moment.

Hank, there's a typo in your above post. I presume PB has an introductory offer on at £50; perhaps in light of In0v-8's diminishing fell shoe range :thumbup::thunbdown:

Had a couple of runs in mine and like them. They are, however, the shoes I was wearing when I cut a hole in my heel. I love everything about these shoes except, for some reason, they have increased the height of the heel tab for some reason which may (not sure - it could have been grit or a twig or something) have caused the injury.

It's good to see you developing as a Yorkshireman!

Are the sizes the same as the 333 version? Or are people finding they need to go up or down a size?

These self-untying inov8 laces have been a pain in my rear for years - especially on heather. I swap them straight away for a pair from my old New Balance trainers that are strange lumpy laces and do the job of staying fastened. Not so pretty, but I lose fewer places these days re-tying them.

A good question Jack. I was thinking about asking that myself.

Anyone finding them bigger or smaller?

I've had the same size in the 270s, 272s, 333s and now 300s. With the 300 not having off-centre lacing like the 270/2 I reckon they're most like the 333, but probably slightly more comfortable as the rand round the toe-box is a little more forgiving. I ran the Four Lakeland Passes event (18m) in them pretty much straight out of the box and they were very comfortable.
