Solid Trail Runners

By Jeff Chrisler Ranked #11 - Men's Trail Run Shoes November 22, 2011

I like these shoes, but I don't love them. I like that they have a limited amount of support, which goes along with my minimal shoe theory (I run in Five Fingers at least once a week), and they have solid traction. The negative is that they are on the narrow side compared to the rest of the La Sportiva trail running line. With the minimal support, there are times when you will certainly notice rocks and they could be painful if you're not careful. Running in full blown shoes, I become slightly lazy when running over rocks, which can certainly be a negative with these shoes. You almost have to pretend that you're running in Five Fingers due to the lack of protection underfoot. That being said, I do like them and have about 300 miles on them thusfar.
