Product Information

The upper is also minimally protected, with a thin film overlay serving as toe bumper, and the rest of the shoe made of lightweight, breathable mesh. If you are running up to a half marathon we would advise going up a half a size to your normal shoe size.

With a low to the ground ride and not very much foam underfoot, these shoes are very sensitive, offering great trail feel on smoother trails. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.

We are talking about a perfect model to face those low-load workouts in all kinds of distances and duration but at calm paces, thanks to a medium, cushioned and soft construction. If you are running further than a half marathon or training for a marathon then it would be advisable to go up a whole size. It’s commonly used to help athletes run more efficiently and to identify movement related problems for people with injuries who are seeking new running shoes.

It is advisable to pop to your local running specialist and try on a few different brands, on the treadmill if possible, to get a feel for the shoes. If the upper has split near the toe box you might want to consider going up a half a size or in some cases, change the width of your shoes. The rubber is not overly grippy, but provides a decent amount of surface area for increased friction on hard surfaces. We have no complaints about the comfort as it relates to rubbing or pinch points on the inside of the upper, but found it to be a fairly sloppy shoe overall, without the structure in the upper to securely grip the foot. The AT TREAD outsole helps offer optimal traction in any environment, while the reinforced tip can help protect your toes from damage upon impact with roots or rocks.

The simple fact is that a running shoe will act as a shock absorber for your muscles and joints through its cushioning. This will concentrate the force of the impact toward the outside area of the forefoot leading to some runners that supinate experiencing foot pain or even stress fractures as a result.

Measure this with a ruler or tape measure the distances between the two points that are furthest apart in [cm/in] (see Figure - vertical line). Completing the upper is a lacing system which locks down the midfoot to reduce in-shoe slippage so you can enjoy distraction-free strides.
