"all of the above ... performed like a champ at never summer 60K, whistler alpine meadows 55K, the super wet kalalau trail (maui), and much more!"
"the 10s are very stable ... Feels very stable, unlike the 8s. ... Midsole is a lot more stable than the 8s."

"When it gets muddy here in the PNW, I switch to these. ... Chunky lugs, and great grip for wet days on the trail."
"They are much better than other Nikes I have on wet rock."

"I *hate* these on mud and chalk! ... Despite the look, they always slip in wet conditions. ... Wouldn't dare wear for a muddy parkrun 🏞️"

"The only problem I ever have with them is it seems their toe box is too narrow compared to other brands. Hard on the feet with long runs."

"One thing that stood out as a massive negative was they didn't breathe at all. My feet were very hot."

Nike Wildhorse 8 for warm weather, Keen for cold weather.
r/onebag • What is your one shoe to rule them all? ->Came here to comment exactly this. I'm 6'2", 190lb (188cm/87kg). Daily trail runner in Switzerland, running 70-80km/week. I have the Trabuco Max 2 and Max 3. Version 4 is the most recent launch. By far the most comfortable trail shoes I've ever owned. They just work perfectly for me. Have over 1000km in the 3's, so super durable too. Also own Hoka Stinson 6 (bit soft), Brooks Caldera 6 (too firm, never softened up), Altra Olympus 6 (midsole felt dead from the start) and Nike Wildhorse 7 (most comfortable upper of any shoe but midsole a bit thin) but none are as good for me as the Trabuco Max.
r/trailrunning • Cushioned Trail Shoes Recommendations ->I ran a 100 miler on the WH 8. Dry gravel tracks and grass surfaces mostly. Went well. I have also ran 20 yards in de backyard in them on forest grouds. Not the fastest shoes but they feel comfy to me
r/trailrunning • Nike Wildhorse ->Peg trails and the wild horses are my favorites right now. Terra Kigers are good too but I’ve just gone through 3-4 pairs of those.
r/discgolf • Disc golf shoes? ->ALTRA Wild 2 (4mm drop) if you want something reasonably priced, or the Wildhorse from NIKE (9/10) are good road to trail options that can see you through a lot. And both are really comfortable shoes. Asphalt all the way to "rocky" is a tough spectrum to cover it all, but those are the two that come to mind. Maybe try the TOPO Ultraventure 4, too, if you really need a wide toebox and some all purpose grip
r/trailrunning • Can you recommend an all-terrain running shoe for wide feet and a heavy build? ->I have and still use them. I don’t have wide toes so Altras never fit for me. Feels like my feet are slipping around in them. The Wildhorses are skinnier and my feet feel secure in them. Good traction for what I do.
r/trailrunning • Nike Wildhorse ->I have Nike trail runners, I love them-they have support in the toes for when you smash your foot in a root. I cramp badly if I eat as well-so following for the rest. 😊
r/XXRunning • Nutrition during runs, best hydration vests that don’t cost $100+ and best trail running shoes? ->I use my Nike Wildhorse trail runners and they are great. I also have a pair of waterproof Nike’s I will use when it is raining. Both cost under $100 and I wear them out and about.
r/discgolf • Disc golf shoes? ->The last set of kigers or Wildhorses I have had was in 2014/2015. I’ll have to look into the new ones if they have fixed the previous issue.
r/trailrunning • New 2025 Nike trail shoes up in the Nike app ->I'm a road runner but I'm doing a trail race later in the summer and I purchased the WH10's to train and race in. I've only done one 5 mile run in them so far but they felt great. You definitely feel the big drop in these but it's nice having all that stack at the heel. Thanks for posting, there's not enough reviews on this shoe out there yet. Update us when you get more miles in!
