Our read
Editorial interpretation from the specs and what we know of this shoe — not lab-tested.
Ride

A firm, protective and stable ride at 26/21 mm with a moderate 5 mm drop; the 275 g weight and rugged build make it feel planted rather than lively.

Fit

Standard width only with a supportive, structured upper built on an approach-shoe platform. Runs secure and durable rather than sock-like.

Best for

Runners who hike, scramble and move slowly over technical mountain terrain and want maximum durability.

Avoid if

You want a light, responsive shoe for fast running or need a wide fit.

Not scored yet. We only put numbers on a shoe once we’re confident — from testing, trusted reviews, or a model we know well. Go by the measurements above for now.
