SCARPA - SPIN ULTRA 2

These fit a half size bigger than the previous Spin Ultra version. I agree the foam is nice. I'm very curious to see how folks feel durability is... I wore ~25 pairs of the Spin Ultra v1 (sole trail shoe since 2019) with nary a durability issue. I had to warranty my first pair of these after 30 miles as the upper was detaching from the sole on BOTH shoes. The warranty pair I got sent has the various overlay pieces coming unglued after ~40 miles. That seems cosmetic to me so going to keep using them but it's a pretty poor start. I'm hoping the best for these... the foam is nice and they fit my foot well.

Scarpa trail shoes. They've been amazing for me.

Had great luck with Scarpas. The Golden Gate 2 and Spin Planet are great in conditions you describe.

That's because those are not even running shoes, but for hiking. The Rapid LT is an approach-shoe. I mean coming from Salomon, everything is an upgrade, I guess, but that is a weird comparison. That being said, Scarpa arguably makes some of the best mountaineering boots in the world, but all of their trailrunners absolutely suck, except maybe the Spin Ultra 2, which was halfway decent.

I just commented the same. The Spin Ultras have been incredible for me in 2025

Scarpa. Got a pair of Scarpa Spin Ultras last year...they're def in my top 3 fav shoes of all time for mountain running. Check all the boxes with 0 complaints....think they were on sale for like 70 bucks at the time cuz no one in the US buys em. Wish I bought like 5 pairs...can't find em anymore

Teva flip flops for dry Wednesday and Thursday wandering. Scarpa trails shoes for dry Friday to Sunday Zamberlain Hiking boots and Gaiters if wet and muddy.

I switched to Sportiva Prodigio Pro and Scarpa Ultra 2 (just recently) - so far way better imo! I loved the Speedgoat 5s but the tread wore out quickly and these feel great on all terrains

i second the scarpa ribelle run. i personally use the dynafit transalper because it has more of an approach style toe, but ive also enjoyed the scarpa spin ultra

Scarpa shoes unfortunately seem to fit tight. I have wide feet so I need to size up at least full size to be comfortable but end up having a good inch empty past the toes. Thanks for the review.

In the same range like bushidos- highly recommend the brand new Scarpa Spin Ultra 2 , very secure and runnable … great for mountain routs and durable

The new Scarpa Spin Ultra 2 … basically exactly what you are describing and another good Italian brand

More generous, this is the second/third iteration at this type of shoe, and they are closer to nailing that "all mountain" trail shoe. This shoe is way more runable than Bushidos, I have both.

Scarpa for more durability than topos
