Saucony Pellegrine 11 GTX. Ich war im Laufladen, habe einige ausprobiert und neben „normalen“ Straßenlaufschuhen (New Balance 1080) haben die für meine Trailruns gepasst

My peregrine 11s just did the same. I was boulder climbing in Joshua tree and I’m a tall heavy guy, so maybe the stress on the soles tears them. I haven’t had any break from trail running and I’ve owned 5 pairs.

I’m just at the edge case of smashed toes with my peregrine 11s. So it depends. Ofc models change as well. Maybe old ones were wide? I think they added fabric to the toes later on.

I’ve had decent luck with 4mm saucony shoes. But another great training aid for me is to hike in zero drop for building strength and run in the slightly cushier shoes. Might help keep you more robust.

Very well. Ultimately you’re choice I can’t give you exact models but I do think topo shoes are by default not zero drop. I do trail running in saucony peregrines and I think they’re 4mm drop and while not wide per se they don’t seem to be overall exaggerated oval ish. Worth a try on maybe?

I haven't had any issues with my 13's and have over 2,600km on them. I see people saying they are not a good shoe but they've been solid for me. Seems like they're a bit hit and miss. I found the 11's to be excellent while the 12's had rather poor uppers that needed repairing after just 500km The latest 16's look like they should be good with engineered mesh uppers and vibration soles.

I have a pair of Saucony Peregrine GTX trail shoes I wear when it's like this. They work great.

Sadly, no.  I used to like the Saucony Peregrine GTX (Goretex) but they changed it a few years ago.  I tried the Goretex Altra Lone Peaks because I like them as a hiking shoe but they are way too heavy for running.  I just got a pair of Saucony Ride TR GTX which I haven’t tried yet. I like Goretex for winter because it can get quite slushy where I live and it helps to keep my feet dry, but the downside is Goretex is always heavier than an equivalent non-Goretex shoe.

Saucony Peregrine trail runners- look for the waterproof version.

Gore-Tex will keep the slush out but your feet might still get sweaty. I’ve had good luck with a water-resistant shoe + thin wool socks, and gaiters if it’s really messy. Nordas are tanks, but cheaper options (Peregrine GTX, Yaktrax on your current pair) work just as well depending on if you’re on plowed roads or ice.
