Marathon workhorse, but loud and clunky at slow paces.
Running these analyses costs money. Buy through my links to help keep lights on! I may get a small commission.
Currently Altra Torins and Lone Peaks. Lone Peaks have been my go-to trail shoes for years, but my road favorites keep getting discontinued. The Torin 8s are fine, especially for long runs, but I wish I could find something a little lighter and closer to the ground for everything else. I've got my fingers crossed Saucony will start offering Kinvaras in wide again with future models. I have fond memories of my Kinvara 11s.
I run through a metric ton of shoes and I think people make too big of a deal out of which shoes to choose. Have a few trusted models that you know fit you well and just hunt for whatever is on sale. Personally Boston 13 and EVO SL are my go to for everything, and Boston 12 and saucony kinvara are the only shoes I’d say absolutely fucking sucked. But otherwise I’ll run in whatever.
Saucony Kinvara is my suggestion too
Wow not one other person here said saucony kinvara. Maybe i should try something else haha. Its all ive run in for 9 years and counting.
Saucony for me, there shoes just seem to be right for me. Endo speed, Endo Pro and Triumph are all favourites. And kinvaras have also been favourite of mine
You can save a lot of money by buying last year's shoes. E.g. one of my favourite shoes are Saucony Kinvaras and there's a local store selling last year's for $80.
