The Merrell Bare Access Trail is the brand¡¯s best attempt so far at a trail shoe. Great upper design with just the right amount of randing and breathability to provide a secure and durable fit in a lightweight design. Vibram outsole is good too; just needs a better midsole material and a rock plate. 300 g M13.

So, if I were to create a ¡°midfoot strike shoe,¡± my approach would possibly be to put pods like you have under the lateral forefoot and under the lateral heel, or perhaps continuously under the entire lateral edge of the shoe. Having the pods under the middle puts pressure up under the front of the heel, back of the arch, and not sure how this will feel when I run in them (I¡¯ll keep an open mind).

3. inov-8 Trailroc Series ¨C You might be noticing a theme here with inov-8, especially in the mountain category. They simply offer so many more choices and options for the neutral or minimalist mountain runner that, as long as the fit is good for you, you can¡¯t help but appreciate all the different outsole pattern chaussures nike air max 90 s and purpose-built designs. The Trailroc series, in particular the Trailroc 245 that was recently given an upper update this last spring, is very versatile with a wide range of applications. While it runs well on regular trail (and even short road sections), it can handle a fair amount of technicality and even some off-trail without too much trouble. The huge benefit of a shoe like the 245 is that you get very good rock protection in a low and more minimalist package. They are like the MT110v1 but beefed up to be able to handle very long runs (I¡¯ve done 50 milers and ran in them for 35 miles of my 100 miler this summer including the last 20 miles of the race) and the outsole holds up to a lot of tough miles. The recent upper update fixed many of the durability issues that the original version had and is more comfortable and open in the toebox. Although it¡¯s not the lightest shoe out there, it has yet to let me down and takes quite a beating. My go-to shoe for very steep and rocky races. Purchasing options: Running Warehouse (US) and Wiggle (UK).

I¡¯m happy to report that New Balance has indeed addressed the fit issue I had with the FF 980. Though the change is pretty subtle, there does seem to be just a bit more room up front, and I have less of a sensation of toe squeezing in the Boracay. More importantly, in runs as long as 10 miles I have not experienced any toe blistering. However, this is still not a particularly roomy shoe, so if you prefer a spacious toebox you may want to loo nike femme air max 90 pas cher k elsewhere.

I¡¯m not a high-mileage trail runner, but I do manage to get off road on occasion. Most of the trails I run require some road running to access them, so versatility is desirable in a trail shoe for me. The following are the trail shoes I recommend:

inov-8 X-Talon 212 on the left (6mm drop) and more F-lite inspired X-Talon 190 on the right (3mm drop). They are both fantastic shoes that feel light on the run despite the lugged outsole. Perfect for going fast in all mountain conditions nike homme roshe run . 315 g (for 212) and 270 g (for 190) M13.
