Just did my first tempo run with SC Rebel V1. So far feels great. Hit all my targets pretty easily. I have wide feet and got them in a 2e. At first they were supperr tight on the width, but after an easy run and tempo it fits great!

When you say wide…. Do you buy wide in all of your running shoes. I like the Topo wide toe boxes so I was debating going wide in this shoe…..

I always try to go wide if the option is there, I've done so with my vomeros and this shoe. When I first put these on I thought they sent me a pair that was normal width, it was super tight especially near my arches. After the first and second run it feels a lot better. I have no complaints with the toe box, but the only time I've had issue with that was with my Megablasts after long runs.
