By Ranked #509 - Women's Trail Run Shoes October 23, 2009

These sneaks are what you want for winter trail runs. I wear a size 7.5-8 in most shoes and I ordered the 39.0. In slushy and muddy conditions (I did not run the whole 5 miles in 4 inch slush or mud, however) and while splashing through small streams I did not get wet through the shoe. And to reply to another unsatisfied reviewer who was hoping for insulation, well these are a running shoe, if you are running or hiking in them with your mid-weight smartwools on, your feet should be plenty warm.the grip on the shoes is better than any other trail runners i've used, the tread is pretty aggessive. They were comfortable right out of the box. The gaiters are a little weird at first but hey, its a novelty. I leave the back gaiter clip attached to the heel because for some reason that one is really hard to get on. No big deal. The stiffness is a comfortable, supportive, secure one, even and well-distributed. I even wore these in an office all day just to see how they felt and they were great.
