OUTsnap CSWP W

I bought these then 2 more pairs (I bought half a size up ) - Dry feet off the paths in Brecons - Grippy on ice  - Went up Glencoe in winter, had been snow previous days - Do actually run in them, they're lighter than my trainers and I like dry feet Never had blisters I should get damn commission. I love them. https://www.salomon.com/en-gb/shop-emea/product/outsnap-cswp-w.html#color=32679

Waterproof Salomon trailer running shoes. They make several kinda and they're all pretty solid.

I just ordered a pair from my local running store, only commenting to suggest you try them on first. I'm a 12 in Salomons and a 12 to 12.5 in Hokas, and I had to size up to a 13 in the 001s.

A pair of Salomon trailrunners. Durable and comfortable.

Over the years I’ve worn trail runners from Merrill and Salomon, or standard running shoes from Nike and NB. A comfortable fit was the main criteria. Even on wet ground I’d rather have fast drying sneakers than boots.

Absolutely, did all of the ABC trek in trail runners (Hoka, Salomon). You really appreciate the lightness of them.

I’ve never found boots to be heavy and I like the stability. I normally wear Merrell Moabs, but I got some Salomon trail runners on clearance for $10 at Sierra, so I decided to give them a try (I think the only reason they were still there is the price tag fell off!) I like the trail runners on regular trails, but I took them for a hike on the AT and I didn’t like the way they handled on rocks. The entire shoe shifted sideways and felt less stable than my boots. I’ve been having pain from a Morton’s neuroma in one foot, so the trail runners helped with that. What I need is a boot with a trail runner’s cushioned sole. It will really be a matter of where you hike and what you prefer.
