Solid moderate/warm weather running shoe

By schanz Ranked #427 - Women's Trail Run Shoes April 5, 2010

I bought these shoes on Steep and Cheap to replace my ancient trail running shoes that I had destroyed. They support and cushion the heel nicely, though I find that I need an insole to provide the arch support that I need (my arch is somewhat high and I pronate slightly), and I need to cinch these down a bit before they get really supportive, since they are borderline wide for my feet (which are an average width).

The toe-box is especially wide, which doesn't bother me, but surprised me upon trying them on since I have spent more time lately in tiny climbing shoes than roomy trail runners. The mesh is very breathable, so if you are running in wet conditions, fall or winter you may want another shoe, as they were a bit cold for the weather when I first got them. Overall, they work great for my purposes, hiking & scrambling up to climbing routes and running around 3k's on uneven trails and some pavement to keep my endurance up. I might have looked for a better fit if I was doing any longer distance running and paying full price for these shoes.
