Any thoughts on this model vs the WP model as far as warmth/durability? i.e. is the non-WP model ligheter/semi-permeable/breathable? Mostly curious for colder winter months here in the snowless southwest.
Also do the shoes fit true to size? I am on the bigger end of the size spectrum and am concerned the 12.5 might be a little short. For reference I generally wear a 47 in La Sportiva shoes.
Thanks for any and all the help you can offer!
NNormal Tomir Shoe
Tomir is Norwegian for training. Well, that's a guess. Kilian Jornet is Spanish for, "how the, what the, why the?" Kilian trains more than a little bit, and in those epic adventures amongst the fjords and high peaks, he finds himself with a set of NNormal's Tomir shoes on his feet. A more durable option for higher mileage, the Tomir is an exquisite example of a true mountain running shoe. One way to reduce your environmental impact is to buy fewer shoes, which, oddly enough, is NNormal's goal with the Tomir: to build a shoe that will stand up to more miles than other shoes. The upper is sewn to the midsole and made of a polyester/TPU blend for abrasion resistance and high durability. Not just for looks, the asymmetrical lacing design is intended to reduce pressure points and give a more secure hold on the forefoot to keep you in touch with your shoes and the trail. A generous stack height and EVA midsole cushion your feet and provide ample rebound with each stride. Meant to do it all for every runner and hiker, NNormal's Tomir shoe is an optimal choice for any outing.
SkyRun Fit Tip - The Tomir fits true and is sold in US men's sizes. (Ladies, please size down one full US size)
- Highly durable upper will keep you going for more miles than you can imagine.
- Vibram Megagrip outsole with Vibram Litebase material is 30% lighter than traditional Vibram soles.
- EVA midsole is light, well cushioned, and offers some rebound to help you be happy and efficient.
- Abrasion-resistant upper is sewn to the midsole to increase durability.
- Additional set of laces will help you spice up your running life.
Update 2024: This version was updated to NNormal's Tomir 2.

Hi Ryan,
The WP model will be the choice for winter months! It uses a material that is similar to Goretex, so it's waterproof and still relatively breathable. You can also get the mid cuff, which will be warmer and leave less of a chance for snow to sneak between your shoes and gaitors. Both the WP and the non water proof version are extremely durable. One employee here has 100+ miles on his and they look brand new! The WP is less breathable, so for the dry season, you could find that the breathability keeps your feet dryer and as a result, warmer. But for the winter, I would definitely recommend the WP.
As far as fit, the people I've talked to who wear the Tomir sized down a half size US. So I'd recommend going with the size 12.
