I made the mistake of buying two pairs of peregrine 12 a few years ago. Both got warrantied within 100km and both 13 replacements broke immediately as well. Then they replaced them with one pair of peregrine 14 and between all of them together they lasted shorter than my peregrine 10s
I’d believe it. I love the feel of Peregrines but their quality control/durability is honestly pathetic. I owed 10s, 11s and 12s and whilst Peregrines were never really hitting those 600km+ durability that other shoes got, they tend to be cheap enough to make it worth while. After my 12s hardly lasted 300km I called it quits on Peregrines until I hear there are improvements to their design.
I loved the older Peregrine's but the new ones quality is absolute trash. I've moved over to Nnormals and don't see myself going back. Tomirs will probably fit your foot best, Kjerag is more "like" the Peregrine IMO (stiffer foam, lighter) but you may find them tight. Good luck!
Ive been happy with the saucony peregrine esp now that the sole eliminated the portion which allowed for rock intrusion. Can anyone provide insight between these and asics?
GTX Trail runner shoes. Personally use suacony peregrines. Ran through puddles just fine.
If they aren't working, there isn't much you can do. I find that higher stack height shoes - the Calderas are 38mm/32mm in heel/toe - I tend to roll my ankles more and look for something closer to the ground. The Cascadias are 33mm/25mm, so your foot sits much closer to the ground, and you may be noticing this. I like Saucony Peregrines which are 28/24, about half an inch closer to the ground than the Calderas. Unfortunately, a lot of the max cushioning shoes tend to have higher stack heights. You can otherwise look for more "stable" and wider sole shoes, but too wide and your gait changes. Or, mid top boots for better stability. You can always keep the Calderas and use them on non technical trails.
I have brooks ghost and saucony peregrine for trail, both brilliant shoes
I have peregrines and am also doing Lakeland 50 and current plan to use my peregrines. Very comfortable shoe
I'm in the exact same boat. Started with the Peregrine, went to Speedboat, back to Peregrine. Have a number of pairs of both floating around. I find the Hoka stickier, but better tred (that doesn't fall apart quickly) on the Peregrine.
