Bondi B is pretty good on most terrain. Worst is on muddy, slick trails but surpisingly good on wet rocks I think because of the exposed and very porous midsole (sticks like a sponge!). It's best on any dry trails and of course the roads. Wore a single pair at the Badwater Ultramarathon last summer and they rocked! Rob Youngren Wasatch Speed Goat Mountain Racing Team

Bondi B is great on both road and trail. The only issue I have had on trails is they are not great on wet rock scrambles and in thick leaves. No shoe that I have had does well on these conditions. I assume the Mafate will be a little better, but that is just a guess.

The Bondi B is the traditional "road shoe", however if you are looking for a trail shoe, they also perform fantastic on dirt. The sole still wards off all rocks, even real sharp ones, and the fit is a bit nicer than the Mafate
