If I’m thinking correctly I notice little difference. That range is my go to and been happy with whatever I’ve got with them.

New Inov8 shoe coming out early January that they've been teasing on social media - the MudTalon. Not sure of the spec.......

I think the release is going to coincide with the company change of name and branding.

Changing company name from Inov-8 to Inov8, and their logo is dropping the foot symbol and replacing with an 8 as you can see on the new shoe, but also introducing a Talon logo

Did my first 'fell' on boxing day with a club race from High Peak Junction to Bolehill trig point by any route you like and back down. Not an official race but makes me feel better about races next year.

That's what I'm hoping!

NE, the V2 260 does seem to get better feedback. Now the plastic rand comes up the side of the show it's said to make it more stable and stop it splitting where every pair of V1s I had did. Dave A uses them as his main fell shoe.

Personally I think the stud layout is part of the reason for the instability, as it seems to create a sideways rocker effect. That said I need some new "mud shoes" and as mudclaws don't fit my foot that well I'm going to give the V2s a try if I can find them cheap.

I’ve got mine as I can’t get 212s any more.

Can’t compare them to other models. They work for me, even a pair I wore for an ultra that were 2/2 a size too small.
