Expert Reviews


What reviewers liked

These trail running shoes are fantastic! Comfortable, supportive, and sturdy, and I like the look. I ran a total of 20 miles over a period of 2 weeks, during hot humid summer weather reaching 90 degrees F. My feet never felt hot in the trailster shoes!
-
Mentioned by most runners was that the Trailster provides ample cushioning for the very technical trails they run with lots of rocks and tree roots.
The Trailster features a full-rubber outsole with moderate lugs to provide good grip on rocks and mellow trails, while still being efficient on pavement.

What reviewers didn't like

I really missed the speed laces and returned this model.
-
The shoe's toe box was also noted by several wearers to be narrow and shallow, causing a few serious blisters on their feet.
It’s not the best option for really wet conditions or where maximum grip is a priority (it uses the more durable, less grippy ContaGrip rubber).
