These are excellent. I used the Alpine Pro for the Eiger Ultra Trail. Dynafit knows there is not just one discipline of mountain running and provide a shoe for each purpose. They might be niche in the US though.
The Dynafit Alpines were *chefs kiss*....liked my first pair so much I bought 2 more to stash in reserve
Haha, shoe fit is definitely personal. I tried my first pair of Dynafit a few years back, and it was the first pair that i felt comfortable in the toe area without the rest of my foot rolling inside the shoe when not tying my shoelace extremely tight. Yes, I have narrow and low volume feet. I had the feline and the alpine. But I read their ultra lines are more spacious. Btw, I am from Hong Kong and the megagrip soles can handle the wet mossy muddy terrains as well as the loose sandy slopes well.
I have been using feline for technical terrain, not just because of the grip, but also the close fit makes them feel like gloves and I feel connected and thus confident when going down some pretty nasty unmarked trails. However, they are definitely not the most comfy for concrete (which unfortunately for HK is something we have to mix with trails often). well, as I only do short to medium distances, this is manageable. Alpine is a bit more cushiony than the Feline
Went with Dynafit Alpine for trail running and Altra Olympus for hiking. The Vibram sole on both shoes have proven it's worth, keeping me on the my feet while jumping from rock to rock while others are slipping and struggling.
There are no trail shoes with a pronation-support system. Such system is counterproductive on an uneven trail and can cause problems and injuries. I am running Adrenaline and Glycerine GTS as my road shoes and have x-bionic, dynafit and saucony Peregrines as my trail running shoes. X-bionic and dynafit are relatively stable, I use a special insole in Peregrines (not from orthopedics)
The Dynafit Trail, light, stable great grip and versatile cushioning! [https://www.dynafit.com/it-it/scarpa-trail-running-da-uomo-08-0000064111](https://www.dynafit.com/it-it/scarpa-trail-running-da-uomo-08-0000064111)
