Men’s edition · 13 current shoes
Kailas FUGA is a Chinese mountain brand, so its whole range is built for rough ground, with Vibram Megagrip on every shoe. The Fuga EX 3 is the everyday shoe, the EX 330 goes long, the DU Monster handles the steepest, muddiest terrain, and the carbon Elite 3 and EX Pro are for racing. There is no road-to-trail shoe.
