Our read
Editorial interpretation from the specs and what we know of this shoe — opinion, not lab-tested.
Ride
Heavy and firm-leaning with a traditional 10mm drop, aimed at walking and easy jogging rather than fast running. The 3mm lugs handle light trails and gravel but not deep mud or technical terrain.
Fit
Standard width only with a secured, everyday trail fit; the waterproof membrane runs warmer and less breathable than the standard version.
Best for
Beginner trail users and walkers who want a low-cost waterproof shoe for wet, mild trails.
Avoid if
You run fast, cover long or technical terrain, or want a light, breathable shoe.
