Men's 10.5. Any recommendations?

Most shoes are too narrow, but if you want something even narrower, get the women's version instead of the men's version. If you get Inov-8, look for the performance last instead of the comfort or anatomic last.
And that's exactly why I suggested Inov-8 295's. Check out the reviews at Zappos, for example: "I have narrow feet and appreciate the fit on these" ... "Those new to Inov-8's should be warned they run a little small and are narrow" ... "And even though I (female) have a narrow heel, these gender neutral shoes fit" ... Or runnersworld: "The narrow fit and secure lacing system ensured a snug fit"
Also, I'm on my second pair of 295's, so I know how they fit. Generally I only comment on gear I own or have used multiple times, and that's pretty rare. Lots of folks here comment on gear they never used. Or do what you do: squirt out multiple posts that contain zippo nada information pertinent to the OP's request.
Are these the first Inov8 shoes you've bought? You write like it is. I currently have these, the Roclite 315, Roclite 370 and Terroc 330. The Roclite 295's are the widest of them all. You seem, unlike what you do, I comment on gear based on more than one item instead of squirting out multiple posts that assume a shoe is narrow based on limited experience. You might have done well to read my second post instead of squirting out your last post.
trail runners fro narrow feet
Me too.
Solomons runners have a narrow fit similar to NIKE
Look into North Face and Vasque brands and the B widths on New Balance shoes (if offered).
Oops, I forgot Columbia brand too.
Adidas tends to lean toward a narrower cut, which is why I were them.
Zappos.com
Left side, narrow. men/women.
Then scroll down to search by specific size.
That will give you an idea what is out there.
i've got narrow feet 10.5, i've used solomons for years, they're the best i've found.
montrail used to be great until they were bought by columbia, they're garbage now.

Narrow or really narrow? In the latter case I suspect New Balance is your only choice. My wife wears 13 aaa and can't find anything else. They do run short so you might need to go up a size.

New Balance makes 3 men's outdoor shoes in a B width - the 978 (which is Goretex), the 967 (which is waterproofed), and the Dunham Cloud (also waterproof). I have the predecessor to the 978, and they've worked pretty well for me.

I wear a ll.5 B. I am using a New Balance running shoe 840. Figure it will take about four pair to make it to Maine.
I agree. Too narrow for my forefoot, but just right for my heel. (Based on one pair a few years back).

I found them to be narrow in the heel (good for me), and bought them two full sizes longer than usual to get a wide enough forefoot (based on two pair over the past two years).

I bought a pair about 6 years ago. They were wide and boxy. They must have changed the last that they build them on.

I wear them one size larger. I meant to say, for actual trail runners and general running, I like the Trail Response shoe. They also make a trail shoe that wear for backpacking, a little sturdier for those rocks and extra weight on your back.
