Description
Not surprisingly, each design has compromises: the lighter options lack overall protection and support, while designs like the Ultra Raptor can be fairly cumbersome on easy trail. These remind us a lot of a fat bike: the ride is smooth and you barely notice the ground underneath, but there is more of a disconnect between you and the trail (and their tall heights can make them prone to rolling over). On the other hand, those built for rugged trails often have a full rubber outsole for approach-shoe-like traction in mountainous terrain (think snow, boulder hopping, and scree).
With a full-length carbon plate that is forked in the heel and forefoot to allow for lateral movement, this is a trail shoe that focusses on speed and efficiency while still offering plenty of protection and, crucially, stability. It all adds up to a highly comfortable and versatile option for everything from packed dirt and gravel to cross-country terrain. However, it should be flagged that the shoe comes up small –On themselves recommend you take the shoe a half size up, which worked for our testers. Finally, they’re relatively stiff and have highly durable and protective uppers (we often strap crampons or microspikes to our mountain running shoes).Editor’s Note: We reviewed our shoe selections on January 29, 2024 and have updated our recommendations. These shoes often feature some of the same components as road running shoes, including soft midsoles and airy mesh uppers. The latest version also drops a layer of fabric for a single-layer mesh upper that’s both lightweight and breathable. Tack on a very premium build and an eye-catching aesthetic, and it’s for good reason that On shoes have become increasingly popular in the U. Non-slip : The cute pattern at the bottom provides all-round friction, even in rainy days and damp places such as bathrooms.
Add to that a roomy toe box and an emphasis on stability, and the Cascadia is an easy-wearing shoe and deservingly popular among a wide audience, from ultrarunners and daily joggers to mile-crunching thru-hikers (it’s gaiter-compatible, too). RW enjoyed running in the shoe over a variety of distances and speeds, and regards it as a particularly good option for off-road newbies likely to be running on less extreme trails. But as with all Peregrines, the 13 is not our favorite fit—they’ve always been slightly wide and prone to slipping at the heel—and the new lacing system makes it difficult to get a good lock. To top it off, the Saucony checks in at a surprisingly low weight, which is impressive given its credentials. The result is a more locked-in, planted feel, which many users will welcome—previous versions of the Lone Peak have been critiqued for being too roomy and squirrely, especially on off-camber terrain.We haven’t yet tested the Tomir—that’s about to change—but all signs point to it being an excellent daily driver from one of the most intriguing new collabs in trail running. These plates vary in thickness, coverage, and materials, ranging from thin and flexible ESS foam under the ball of the foot to a stiff TPU shank. The good news is that most of the shoes here are great all-rounders, sufficient for most runners on most trails. And in terms of cushioning, the Golden Gate ATR is Scarpa’s plushest design yet, with a thick, dual-density midsole that’s softer at the heel (ideal for impact absorption) and firmer at the front for great spring and propulsion.
But for those who like to do like that contact-with-ground feel, this shoe should (Trail)fly up your wish-list. But for a trail shoe that will provide reliable stability and protection mile after mile—and double as a capable hiking design—Brooks’ Cascadia remains one of the best all-rounders in the game. For those with finicky feet that need to customize the fit around certain parts of your feet, there isn’t really a solution with the quick lace design. But for a surprisingly good all-rounder that offers exceptional comfort for ultra distances, the Hoka is a top performer. We’re all suckers for a massage, whether it’s to relax, work out a few kinks, warm up the body pre-workout, or speed up recovery after a big effort.We’ve recommended this shoe to dozens of friends and acquaintances who’ve struck out with more traditional shoes (including wide versions of models like the Hoka Speedgoat), and have yet to lead anyone astray. Added up, it’s a great all-around kick for everything from easy to technical trails—short and fast or long and slow—and the durable build should last you upwards of 500 miles. In comparing a couple popular shoes, the Altra Lone Peak and Hoka Speedgoat, we’ve found the mesh-heavy design of the Speedgoat to be better for long runs in the heat of summer, while the Altra's more substantial synthetic upper material can get warm.
