SPR 27 Feb 9:15am, 27 Feb 2024 43,741 posts	0 SPR Inov-8 have been selling off all their stock and seems to be creating new models in the near future. I missed out on some of their walking boots.
flanker 27 Feb 10:59am, 27 Feb 2024 21,166 posts	0 flanker The trail talons haven't been directly replaced; the trailflys are the closest they've got at the moment. But even they're a mess as they're selling both the old and new models alongside each other, so that something like 6 or 7 different variants. ps. still loving the new mud talon speeds as my fell/off-road race shoe!
phal 27 Feb 11:15am, 27 Feb 2024 4,667 posts	0 phal Inov8 will be bringing out their new zero drop at the end of the year - they said they’d be moving their current trailfly over to the new trailfly with a zero drop - seems silly to bring them out all at the same time especially with the popularity of the 270s currently…, so maybe a shrewd move atm.
RooA 27 Feb 3:52pm, 27 Feb 2024 2,703 posts	0 RooA I'm sure the lovely people at Inov-8 haven't actually done this as a personal attack on me... but this is the third style of shoe in a row that has either gone or been altered beyond recognition before I was in need of a second pair... three times almost within a year! 😆 Altra Escalante, Saucony Kinvara, Inov-8 Trail Talon. sigh

RooA 27 Feb 8:41pm, 27 Feb 2024 2,705 posts	0 RooA Yeah, I'll get another pair ASAP. Got a pair of Kinvara sitting in a box too. It's just making things expensive - I've only just bought the first pair... and eventually it won't be possible to get them. Then what?
