The North Face Endurus XCR Boa Trail Running Shoe - Men's

Item #TNF1377 | 0 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Very comfortable but the Boa system fails

By Ranked #2636 - Men's Trail Run Shoes October 9, 2006

I am 5'8" and 154lbs so not a big person. I do lots of running on hilly trails. The XCR is the most comfortable trail shoe - really supportive and well cushioned. The Boa system was good from the point of reducing rubbing and tightness. But...once you are on the trail the BOA system is easily hit and damaged - it jammed during an event and I had to pull the shoes off and switch to my spares. Would I buy again? Only on flat trails which defeats the purpose – The North Face need to modify the BOA to protect is more.
