Most Comfortable Trail Running Shoes

These are simply the most comfortable shoes I have ever run in. My XT Wings, Speedcross 2 and XA Pro trail shoes are now sitting on a shoe rack in my garage collecting dust. Last month (Sept 2010), I completed both the Kauai Marathon and Maui Marathon while wearing these bad boys. It is a bit bright and flashy (easily remedied by going on a nice long run on dirt and dusty trails), and I was referred to by a few of my fellow runners during the Maui Marathon as "FireShoes" but I didn't care. From the 80-90 degree heat and high humidity on the paved roads of Kauai and Maui, to the cooler but steeper dirt and rocky trails of Mt Tam and Marin Headlands near San Francisco, these shoes performed flawlessly. Absolutely no blisters or hotspots unlike my run during the San Francisco Marathon back in July 2010 when I started getting blisters around mile 15 while wearing my Asics GT-2150. I probably could have minimized the problem by re-tying my shoes but I didn't want to stop mid-race. Anyway, I plan on wearing the S-lab3 during the North Face Endurance Challenge Ultramarathon in early December. Now for the downside... other than its flashy colors, the S-lab3 are a bit on the expensive side and they seem to wear out more quickly than my other Salomons. My recommendation would be to wait for the elusive 20% off discount coupon offer from Backcountry (hint: it sometimes pays off to follow them on twitter) and buy in bulk! :-)
Change me.
