Our read

A do-everything technical trail shoe for runners who prioritise grip and ground protection over plush comfort; the Vibram Megagrip outsole is the reason to buy it.

Ride

A relatively soft PWRRUN ride for a technical shoe, with a low 4mm drop that keeps you close to the ground and 4mm lugs that dig into loose or wet terrain.

Fit

Standard trail fit with a secure, abrasion-resistant upper and added toe protection; also offered in a Wide version for those needing more room.

Best for

Technical, rocky, wet, or loose trails where traction and stability matter more than smooth road transitions.

Avoid if

You mostly run smooth or hard-packed trails and roads, where the deep lugs feel unnecessary and can wear faster.
