Jake, the overall fit is fairly similar between the two models. I would recommend sizing down a half size and going with the 8.5 in the Kjerag.

Erik, I would recommend a 9 if you plan on using it the way it comes which is without an insole. If you plan on throwing an insole in there, I would recommend a 9.5.

Christoph, both are great mountain running shoes and have slight differences. The Tomir has more cushion and the midsole is quite stiff, which means a lot of protection. The Mutant has slightly less cushion and a bit softer midsole, which means it is quite sensitive. On the outsole, both are quite sticky, the mega grip rubber on the Tomir will be a little more durable while the rubber on the Mutant will be slightly stickier. Both have quite deep lugs that do well in technical terrain. Ultimately, the Mutan...

David, thanks for the question. Although it has a wider fit, the Tomir will not be nearly as roomy as the Speedgoat 2E and they do not have a wide model. A high-volume shoe with a lot of cushion, I would look at the Altra Olympus. Another high-volume shoe with less cushioning and better trail feel would be the Altra Mont Blanc.

Carmen, I would recommend getting an 8 in the Kjerag which would be a women's 9.
