Comments: First, I have not done more than walk around my apartment in them so this is a very limited review. Sizing, I wear 9.5D in the New Balance Minimus Roads so I bought both 9.0 and 9.5 in this shoe and the 9.5 fits better. Although some reviews of the TR 235 say the toebox is wider, I still think it could use a little more wiggle room and I tried them on with the thinnest socks I own. That said, they're not any more narrow than the NB Roads and those could be wider too, IMHO. If you have narrow feet I'm sure these will feel great. The upper has a healthy amount of padding to them which is good if you like that. The heel in particular has a lot of padding which may be good to keep your heel locked in but I'm worried all this material will absorb and keep in water/mud. Also, the upper itself is unlike anything else I've encountered in a shoe. It sorta reminds me of that material at the bottom of carpets but flexible. They could've saved a lot of weight in the shoe if they thinned out the upper. The outer must be as grippy as everyone says they are as they make a pleasant squeaking sound when I walk across my hardwood floors. I can't comment on whether the lack of a rockplate provides sufficient protection but my gut tells me it'll be enough. That said, some reviews said the shoe was flexible. For not having a rockplate, I thought it'd flex more.
