The North Face Switchback Trail Shoe - Mens
TNF SwitchBack Trail Shoe
By Future Adventure Racer
Ranked #108 - Men's Trail Run Shoes
November 17, 2003
Just purchased the Switchback shoe for upcoming 50K Trail Race (Hat 50K in MD). Well I have to say, the previous reviews were some what right & wrong. First, I am big runner (250lbs! & Pronate). The left shoe does have heel left, but not my right ft. Break-in time is not an issue, could be due to my size! My only gripe is the shoe is a tad tall in the sole, therefore when running over varying terrain w/an aggressive outer sole, I have a tendancy to roll my foot when hitting a hidden root or stone. Other than that this shoe Rocks! What a tank of a shoe. Too bad it is not waterproof!
