there was a thread a while back that spoke of inov-8's and superfeet. someone had tried the idea and, at that time, the two had combined well enough for walking.

I've got some Inov8 Mudroc 290's and i've had them for about a year and the sole is just starting to come away at the moment (but still functional until i can get to a shop to get a new pair) however they have had a fair bit of abuse. I've used them on the welsh 3000ers, i wore them in the alps for some approaches and a lot of walking to crags over here as well as my genral day to day footwear (in fact i've got them on at the moment).
Will certainly get a new pair when i've got a bit more dosh. I can't be bothered running so not sure what there like for that but pretty impressed as a lightweight approach type shoe.

I tried them on but found them uncomfortable so stuck with Walsh PB's.
Depending on your terrain you may be interested to hear that Walsh are bringing back the taiga

i lkie the look of inov-8s since my freind bought a pair r walchs rele gd wats there grip like???
Show/hide user stats
I think your asking what is the grip like? A1! It works well in both thick mud and rock.
Walsh have a website http://www.walshsports.co.uk

I used to have a set of Fell Dancers they also had very good grip but the build wasn't as good.

I'm very happy with the grip on my pb's from what I remember the grip on the Walsh's is more aggresive than the inov8

innov8 are great, I use the terrocs for trail and hill running. very comfortable, great grip, not very cushioned or stable but you dont need that off road. are they for running or walking. I think they work well for both.

Do you want them for running or walking? For running it depends largely on the indiividual. I love them but I reckon the Adidas Swoop are even better. That said I'd happily walk in my Innov8's but the Adidas probably not.

I have too wear the Innov8 with volume adjuster insoles but the Adidas are a perfect fit. I have quite narrow feet.

I've had Felldancers and the build is absolute crap. Had two ppairs and heel camme away on both. Like something out of the 1950s . . .whhic of course iis what they are. They do have fantastic grip foor running but I can't see them as a walking show
