Wide running shoes recommendations? (sopuli.xyz)

Hi,

I've been having issues with blisters between my toes. The toes rub together I suppose, and for longer runs, this causes issues.

I think I need wider shoes. I've been running in the "Hoka bondi 7 wide", and recently got the altra Turin 6.. The altras as ok for width, but the lack of drop makes my heel hurt.. Any ideas of very wide shoes with some drop?

I should say I love the hokas in every aspect aside from them being too narrow in the toe box.

I think Topo Athletic shoes may be what you are looking for. They have the roomy toe box of Altras but they also have some models with 5mm drop. I don't personally use them, but they come highly recommended in the trail community.
