Adidas - Adidas Terrex Soulstride Flow GTX

My Adidas Terrex Gore-TEX shoes are the comfiest shoes I’ve ever worn, it’s the only shoe I wear to hike

I used to love the Adidas Terrex GTX with the unbreakable (titanium?) laces, then they changed and didn’t fit my feet as well. I now wear Hoka Clifton’s for when I want cushion (they also make the Speedgoat and Challenger trail runners), but mostly my Salomon Speedcross. Note: I have hereditary bunions, so YMMV.

I have and will always say that any disc golf shoe over $100 is a scam. There is no material you can make the bottom of a show out of that will withstand being ground against a concrete slab with full body weight repeatedly. I am an advocate for the adidas terrex A4. I am able to find these consistently under $75 and they also have a wide version which is great for larger folks. I also have a separate pair of waterproofed goretex terrex that I only wear when needed. Highly recommend have a waterproof pair that you wear sparingly to get them to last years and years.

Not OP, but I wear a pair of Adidas Terrex GTX trail shoes down to -5 or so with merino wool socks. Down to -10 I wear a pair of Merrell Moab Speed 2 GTX boots, and in these temps I wear a pair of insulated Merrell winter boots I've had for years. If I'm going to be doing a mix of asphalt and trails, I'll skip the hiking boots and go straight to the winter boots as I don't want to wear out the sole of my hiking boots. They're not made for asphalt at all. One thing I'll note is that there have been a lot of complaints about Merrell's quality going to shit the past couple of years. I'll likely be looking at other manufacturers (Lowa, Oboz, Salomon, Haglofs, even Vans have hiking boots now) when I go to replace them, unless Merrell gets its shit together. I'd also recommend that if you can afford it, get the GTX (GoreTex) version. It's, in my experience, the best waterproofing around because it's also breathable. Nothing sucks more than being half way through a hike and your feet are soaked and now freezing cold because the waterproof membrane doesn't breathe. Where needed, I'll also wear Kahtoola Microspikes where needed, generally on any increase in elevation where the snow's been trampled down to be slippery, or ice. Microspikes can be overkill - they're not quite crampons but they're more than typical ice traction spikes. MEC had them on a pretty deep discount one year, which is why I grabbed them. Any ice spike will probably be sufficient.

I've tried Under Armour, Terrex, and Nike trail running shoes. All with Goretex. I find they rip by the end of the reason and lose the water proof factor. Then it's just how long I can stick with them before wanting fully dry feet again.

I have a pair of Adidas ColdReady waterproof trail runners for winter use. They do well for the wet, windy, cold weather for me in Northern Poland. I used to have some from ON running that were terrible in cold weather, the soles can’t handle it and turn into bricks for cushion and ice skates for traction. That’s been my issue with most trail runners in below freezing and why I switched to the Adidas ones. Nike has some decent waterproof running shoes that are supposed to handle the cold well to now in the ACG line. But I haven’t tried them myself. Columbia would be my other recommendation for some tennis shoe like waterproof and insulated options that you can use for walking and city use.

I went from hiking to trail running a little over a year ago and have used 3 different shoes so far: * Vans Ultrarange: mostly used these because they were my casual hiking shoes and had good cushioning. they worked fine for the short distances I started with but nowhere near the grip and comfort needed for a longer treks * Altra Lone Peak 8: my first trail running shoe because the zero drop and large toebox intrigued me. I also wanted something that could double as a hiking shoe since I also do that a lot. I really like them especially for more technical runs as the lack of a platform makes it feel like you're gripping the trail. They lack as much of a cushioning/stack as others so they can't really be used every day, especially if you're going long distances. I will probably keep using them for hiking and upgrade when they reach their limit. * Adidas SoulStride: just recently bought these mostly because I had a coupon, they were already on sale, and I needed a second pair of running shoes so I could go out more regularly. Since they're new to me, I am still getting used to them but I have been working on increasing my distances and they seem to be working well for that. The extra cushioning (as compare with the Lone Peaks) is great as is the 'rocker' design that almost naturally rolls my foot forward. Love the way they almost feel effortless to run in at times. Not a PR shoe necessarily (though I did get close to a PR the first time I ran in them), but definitely ideal for longer runs, especially ones that involve multiple surfaces. I am guess they won't be quite as good on technical routes, but I haven't tried them there. Probably will work well for hiking, but the extra elevation from the stacks may not feel as intuitive on rougher terrains as the Lone Peaks with their close to the ground feel. ETA: as others have said, trail running shoes are an individual thing. There's not one or two shoes that are far and away the best. What I did was read reviews, focusing on different pros/cons, and paid close attention to how I walk, run, and hike for a while before deciding on the Lone Peaks based on that.

I’ve run in a couple of those. If you’re mostly on road, muddy paths and fields, I’d lean toward the Pegasus Trail 5 out of that list. It feels the most “road shoe first” but still handles light trail and mud fine. Super comfortable and easy to live with day to day. The Terrex Soulstride is decent too, but it feels a bit firmer and more trail-leaning. Grip is good, but on longer road stretches I noticed it more underfoot. Haven’t personally used the Ghost Trail, but friends who like the regular Ghost seem happy with it. For Peak District stuff in summer (dry-ish trails), any of these would work, but if you’re getting them under £70, Pegasus Trail is probably the safest all-rounder. Road-to-trail shoes are always a compromise anyway.

+1 for terrex. I've had Ax3s and when they died I replaced those with Ax4s. Just also got some terrex soulstrides and they are promising so far.
