Our read

A versatile trail racer for competitive runners who want one fast shoe from short mountain efforts to ultras; its low weight and moderate stack define it more than any single feature.

Ride

Firm and responsive with a 6 mm drop and moderate stack that keeps ground feel on technical ground while staying comfortable over distance.

Fit

Standard width only with a secure, performance-oriented fit; no wide option for those who need extra room.

Best for

Uptempo trail efforts and races where a runner wants low weight and versatility across varied terrain and distances.

Avoid if

You want maximum plush cushioning for slow easy miles or need a wide fit or a waterproof upper.
