AERO BLAZE 3 GRVL GORE-TEX

Thanks i ended up ordering Salomon Aero Blaze 3 GRVL GTX and it's perfect! A very bouncy GTX running off road hybrid shoe. Would recommend. I also order the Gel Trabuco 13 GTX and this were not so good so they are going back.

I think hybrid would be plenty. In general, they would give a little more traction and sometimes a little more protection on the toe, but still feel a lot like road shoes. I got some Salomon Aero Blaze 3 Gravel and they work fine for me as road shoes and when I take a trail I don't have to worry about the soles getting torn up by rocks. My more serious trail shoes are quite a bit heavier and oriented more toward stability and protection, so they're a much bigger change from road shoe feel.

The glides have a high stack, the aero blaze grvl is the lighter version. Both don't have plates.

Can you elaborate a bit more please? Reason I'm asking is that I'm considering to buy the blaze grvl. I already have a high stack shoe so not interested in the high stack of the aero glide and I figure the blaze gives better ground feel

The Salomon Blaze 3 GRVL may be what you're looking for, the basis is the standard blaze a very light weight road shoe with some modifications to make it "GRVL". Check out my recent review here https://www.reddit.com/r/RunningShoeGeeks/s/ndUukBNzou

Running in the blaze is extremely dull compared to the glide

Don't recommend GTX or your feet will just sweat and stink out the shoe. Peg trail 5 is excellent, but also look at the Salomon Aero Glide and Blaze GRVL models.

My parkrun is similar. I got a pair of Solomon gravel shoes. Like a road shoe but with more grip - highly recommend!

I’ve tried on a few shoes with higher stacks while looking for a softer and foamier ride and it feels really unstable to me. I’ve been rocking the ASICS Fuji Lite Trails and Topo Mtn Racer 3s which have nice cushion but not the aggressive drop and I like that middle ground. I tried on the Salomon “GRVL” shoe recently (idk the model) and I’m feeling like this style is going to get more popular. The stack was massive. It was kinda fun but I only tested it out of the door on the road and can’t imagine it working for me. Even the two-track I regularly run is steeper and rockier than they feel stable on.
