"What I love about our oven vs. the air fryer is the amount of space the oven offers. Rotisserie chicken, 4 baked potatoes, pizza, evenly cooked tenderloin with a broil setting that can provide a crust."
"I use it a ton for roasting peppers along with daily for everything else."
"just for hiking and trail rubbing ... Personally I wore them for my ultra."

"The downside of trail runners to me (Solomans) was I would sometimes get foot bruises on sharp rocky ground. ... My Solomans had a rock plate (thank you for pointing out my omission), but I feel a big difference with my Murrell Moab's."
"the lack of a rock plate eventually started to bother me on long days of backpacking on rocky trails"
"Current Salomon trail runners have to thick of a sole and cant feel rock well beneath them ... maybe the ones I have just dont work well for this specific use case."

"intolerably narrow for me"
"I found the fit on my mafate’s to narrow for anything more than a 25k. ... Honestly wouldn’t recommend them even at that distance if you have a wider than a normal D size."
"Absolutely would not recommend La Sportiva for wide feet"

"Their sole is a little bit ticker as well ... Oh that’s a bummer but good to know! I have an old pair that are basically like being barefoot but with tread instead of skin."

The best ones are the ones that fit!! I have wide toes and wore Solomon trail runners for a long time. I switched to Merrell Moab hikers a couple of years ago. Both are 13 Wide (EEE).
r/backpacking • What is the best trail runners for backpacking? ->The downside of trail runners to me (Solomans) was I would sometimes get foot bruises on sharp rocky ground. I switched to hiking shoes (Merrell's) and I feel it's a better compromise between trail runners and boots. Pretty light and more comfortable.
r/backpacking • Trail runners for backpacking ->My Solomans had a rock plate (thank you for pointing out my omission), but I feel a big difference with my Murrell Moab's. To each there own, I know trail runners are the favorite, the Moab works better for me (I have dainty feet, I guess).
r/backpacking • Trail runners for backpacking ->I use Solomon trail runners, non-waterproof because my feet overheat easily in the summer. They've seen the presis in the summer without issues, and have decent grip.
r/wmnf • Boots for the Whites in Summer? ->What do you want to do? I love my Solomon trail runners but if I'm sliding down shale I'll take the Keens all day long. Both are good brands in my experience.
r/HikingAlberta • Which one should i get? im both comfy with both its just im asking for the durability of the brands, any reviews is a great help. ->I used the Salmon Sense, maybe ride it was? Anyway I’ve used it for big hikes in Hawaii, both volcanic, rocky and muddy. Phenomenal shoes
r/trailrunning • What trail shoes are good for walking? ->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.
r/hiking • what summer hiking shoes do you wear? ->I like Oboz boots. I also like my Solomon trail runners. I've done massive days in both, totally depends what you are more comfortable in. I do personally find benefit in some ankle protection and waterproofness. Some folks poopoo that... but I bet they have wet feet.
r/vermont • Hiking Boots ->I've tried a few S Lab shoes that didn't work for me due to my wide feet. There might be some hope here with Brooks!
r/trailrunning • Vibram + Matryx ->New S/labs size down. I’m my actual street shoe size in those, a US 6, when I’m a 6.5 in every other Salomon model. I was fine with my usual 38 in the PP.
r/trailrunning • La sportiva prodigio pro ->Yes! this is a great point. I always hate wearing my Salomon trail runners in the city on sidewalks… I do it because I absolutely need trailer runners and my other pair of shoes is usually something more dressy.
r/HerOneBag • The age-old question…shoes? ->Salomon trail runners. They’re my goat shoes - the only thing they don’t get a grip on is wet wood.
r/discgolf • Disc golf shoes? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
