Dynafit - Sky DNA Running Shoe

My favorite in this category atm is the Dynafit Sky DNA. Scarpa Spin Race is also good.

Even though I am a Salomon junkie, I'll still recommend Dynafit Sky DNA.  I picked up a pair on a whim off sierra.com when they were marked all the way down to 35 bucks.  I just liked the way they looked.  They quickly became my favorite single track shoe.  They come with a quicklace but it's double laces.  I never have to adjust them unnecessarily (I adjust tightness depending on terrain).  They are very robustly built, but they are also light.  It's a very fast and agile show.  The grip on wet rock and roots is awesome.  The only downside, at least for me, is I don't care to run in them on more gravely routes.  Kinda hard to describe but they just don't feel the best.  So that's why I only wear them on single track.  

I bought a pair of Dynafit Sky DNA off [sierra.com](http://sierra.com) a couple months back on a whim because they were only 60ish bucks. The lacing system is pretty cool, if not a bit over-engineered. Ive only got about 20 miles on them so far as I still predominately wear my Salomon Sense Rides, but Ive been thoroughly impressed with them on a single track. They have insane grip on wet rocks and roots and are also lightweight giving it a fast and nimble feeling. The only thing they werent good at is gravel running. But for a single track only shoe, they are fantastic.

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)

I order new pairs of Dynafit often to try out. I’ve found their shoes to be incredibly well made but they have very little cushion. They’re also narrow, so they require sizing up by a full US size. I bought a pair of Feline SL for running in the rain and mud, but they’re so low to the ground and hard that I only use them when working in the yard.

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)

From my experience shoes that worked best on such terrain are Salomon Genesis and La Sportiva Mutant. Other La Sportiva shoes should do well because they are generally targeted for mountain running. Also, from my experience, Dynafit shoes are well suited for mountain running. Finally, if you want to see a selection of shoes and gear in general that is targeted towards mountain running take a look at Skyrun store (https://skyrun.skimo.co/). This is a real physical store in Utah. I ordered from them several times without any issues.

I find Dynafit shoes to be narrow, stiff, and hard. I prefer to rotate between my La Sportiva Jackals and Hoka Torrents. I do enjoy Dynafit skis and boots though!
