ASICS - TRABUCO TERRA 2

Opa, e aí! Escolhi, peguei o Mizuno Wave Daichi 8. Eu estava entre várias opções, algumas das quais citei ali, mas principalmente nos Asics Trabuco. Eu coloquei umas 2 vezes no pé, mas eu não curti muito a forma do Asics, o 39 ficava meio justo e 40 meio grande & eu estava achando ele um pouco alto, queria um tênis mais baixo para trilha, esses tênis mais altos embora tenham mais amortecimento, me dá uma impressão de ser mais fácil de torcer o pé, então fui para minhas opções. Eu já tinha achado interessante alguns modelos de trilha da Mizuno justamente por serem um poucos mais baixos, ainda assim tendo um pouco de amortecimento, e por parecer ter um bom espaço para os dedos, então eu comecei a pesquisar para pegar o Daichi 7, mas aí o Mujin 9 estava quase no mesmo valor e com um solado bem mais agressivo, eu quase fui nele, mas no fim das contas peguei o Daichi 8 por ser um modelo acima do que eu já estava pensando em pegar (D7) e usando como critério de desempate em relação ao Mujin 9 o fato de ter o solado Vibram. Eu já usei o tênis, fiz umas trilhas na Serra do Cipó, peguei terrenos diversos, desde areião, chão batido, pedras soltas e rocha exposta, atravessei rios, poças e fui em algumas cachoeiras, peguei rocha úmida e posso dizer que curti o tênis. Coloquei o tênis para teste mesmo, queria saber se poderia confiar, chutei umas pedras, fiquei tentando subir em rochas inclinadas e/ou úmidas, molhei o pé e tudo mais. Eu só perdi o grip em uma unidade de pisada, que foi na face inclinada de uma rocha lisa com areia, mas é bom citar. O conforto é muito bom, a diferença de peso em relação a bota faz sim diferença, o grip foi excelente, não tive problemas, o fator de escoar água e secar mais rápido é muito bom, achei firme no pé Para mim, pessoalmente, o único ponto que eu melhoraria é a altura no dedão, eu tenho o dedão/unha do dedão um pouco alta, então fica encostando ali, o tênis tem uma proteção na frente, então espero que não fure, mas é um ponto que eu melhoraria. No mais, eu indicaria o tênis. O tênis voltou zerado desse rolê, sem arranhões ou rasgados, solado impecável, por enquanto só vitória. Vamos ver pós-Roraima hehe

Asics trabuco (non max) is also a solid training shoe!

Asics Trabuco (non max!) is stable and similar to your Kayano's. I personally like Nike Zegama 2's as well they are very comfortable and very stable. In trails shoes you are just looking for stable shoes, pronation correction doesn't really exist there. Only really bad shoe I ever had was the Trabuco Max 3, very high stack + very soft. For that same reason you might want to stay away from the Mafate 5

Pair of Asic Trabuco trail runners got me over the GR11 no issue. Don't get me wrong, they were DONE by the end. But much preferred the light weight.

Option 3: trail running shoes 😁 You’ll need something to give you “stability” and dont be always putting “weight” on your knees when you come down from hills. I did it with some Scarpa, Salomon (worst shoes for me) and I’m planning to do it with ASICS Trabuco.

With trail runners you're going to protect your feet more if you're hiking a trail where you are navigating big rocks and tree stumps, etc. Think less stubbed toes and less time removing debris etc . I think overall, you'll be able to hike more trails with trail runners. You can always strap your Sandals onto your day pack for water crossing or for the option. I know a lot of people like the Altras. I've owned four different pairs of ASICS Trabucos. The best thing to do is to go to a store and try them all on because everybody's feet are different. Ps. Get yourself some affordable dirty girl gaiters to keep debris from entering your shoes and you'll be set!

I like Vibram a lot, any shoe with a Megagrip outsole will have enough traction for me. But I have found that it is not the end all be all anymore. Asicsgrip is stickier than Vibram and extremely durable on top. It's amazing stuff, really. Asics' trail lineup is not that big, but they have some really interesting models and a great allrounder in the Trabuco.

Well I guess that depends on what we call technical and individual adaptation to that technical terrain. I prefer Asics trabucos for this type of terrain, closer to the ground, more grip o wet rock and not soft. I live inside the Zegama course, for this type of terrain AP5 works great for nearly all the course. But if going more rocky high altitude terrain I prefer the Asics. Haven't tried any of the shoes you mention to compare, sorry. All in all, they are a nice shoe for putting km on.

I use Asics trabuco. As gripy as vibrams megagrip if not more, quite close to the ground and not too soft. It also works well for long outings. I guess anything that fits well and is similar would work for me.

Mafate speed 4 is actually 7mm in runrepeat test. I have a pair, and they don't feel as other 4mm drop shoes I use. OP, you could try Asics trabucos. They are 8mm, go for 12th versión, 13th upper is trash

Asics trabucos work for me in highly technical terrain. Enough cushion but still quite stiff, not very high and wide fit. Trabuco 13s upper is not good, it breaks really easy, I'm in my second pair and I won't get more than 400km from any of them (second one is a replacement sent by Asics). 11 and 12 work better for this kind of skyrunning. I was getting around 700/800km put of them.

Asics trabuco is quite wide. Topo MTN racer 3 is too narrow for me too, mostly due to the midfoot

Asics trabucos are wide and roomy. The speedgoats 2E are actually very narrow and low volume. Even the mafate speed 4 in normal width are roomier. I tried topo MTN racer 3. They are wide in the forefoot, but narrow in the arch/midfoot. Can't wear them Agility peak 5 is also wide and high volume.

Have a look at Asics line up. Trabuco and trabuco max. They are plenty wide. I tried speedgoats 2E, they are not any wide. Mafate 4s are actually wider, but still not enough for me if I'm going long.

Asics Trabuco have worked well for me.

Running shoes is a really broad term. What you want is *trail running* shoes. They have much more aggressive tread, some even have rock “plates” to protect your toes, you can choose gtx versions in some brands if you want to keep your feet dry etc etc. I use trail runners (usually either Hoka speedgoat or nowadays asics trabucos) in some pretty rugged off route terrain and carrying a large pack so I’m a bit biased but I think you can totally use trail runners. But you need to keep an eye on things like drop because you will feel a bit difference between a 13mm drop and a zero drop. Best case scenario go try some on in a store if that’s an option? The best option really depends on your walking style, foot width, comfort preference etc The shoes you’ve linked would only be good on super groomed trails, youll be on your ass if there’s any wet rock, mud etc in those
