MinivanActivities 1.0I wear xt6, xt4 and acs daily around town and for light hikes. I have some speed cross 6 gtx I wear for slightly more rough trails but prefer boots if I can for ankle stability.
Affectionate_Love229 0.0The 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.
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).
bythorsthunder 0.0What 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.
contrary-contrarian 0.0I 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.
variemeh 0.0I'm a fan of Solomon hiking shoes (or really their trail runners) with Gore Tex and micro spikes! The spikes stay in my pack most of the year, just in case I go further than planned or I got unexpected conditions. A must have for me.
PorqueNoLosDose 0.0I 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.
Cold_Art5051 0.0Over 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.
Imaginary-Round2422 0.0Salomon trail runners. They’re my goat shoes - the only thing they don’t get a grip on is wet wood.
OrangeGrff 0.0Absolutely, did all of the ABC trek in trail runners (Hoka, Salomon). You really appreciate the lightness of them.
umilikeanonymity 0.0I love my Salomon trail runners. I prefer them to my hiking boots and exclusively use them for hiking.
