Five Faves - Trail-Running Shoes

Five of our favourite trail-running shoes for both walking and running use.


Posted: 14 October 2009

Here are five trail-running shoes we rate, there are plenty of others around though, from Inov-8's huge range including the lightest boot in the world, through to more walking-orientated shoes from the likes of Brasher. More links below this article.

Inov-8 Flyroc 310
Inov-8's massive range of off-road running shoes includes the lightest boot in the world. Great combination of grip and lightness to turbo-charge your feet.


Carn Cobra
Carn's trail shoes include the Cobra, a trail-running/walking shoe that offers slipper-like comfort for your feet.


Salomon XA Pro
Salomon's long-standing XA Pro is an established favourite with runners and adventure racers. The only downside is a slightly shallow sole tread.


Brasher Helium XCR
Brasher's new trail-runner is arguably best suited to trail walking in a lightweight style, but is well made with a good, roomy, UK-specific fit.


Berghaus Phobic Stable Endure
Berghaus's Phobic shoes give great, tenacious grip in an interesting, water-shedding rather than waterproof package that works for both walking and running.
