I live on Skye and these look great for some of the terrain up here. I’m thinking of investing in some of these, but the Inov-8 Mudtalon Speed look like a good competition. Decisions, decisions!!

A good solid sound review covering all 'ports of call' in a trail shoe review, I think. I typically run just 4-7 miles in very technical UK off-road terrain. I wonder if that might mean I'd elude the boa heel lockdown/aching toes problem? But my feet are fairly wide as well. But I can get away with running in the old Salomon Fellcross shoes (narrow) for 4-7 miles.

Love your stuff but I honestly don't know wha " room in the toebox" you're tralking about. It's tight-fitting to the point of doubling for my ballet hobby.

What about cleaning it?

Hello, thanks for the review. Apparently a lot of people have Achilles problems with these shoes. Im between them and the Vectiv Sky (also great review) 🤘im looking for gast shoes for trail and maybe i have it 😊

A great review. No nonsense and concise. Wish all reviews could be like this. Thanks fella

Nice video. How many minutes at threshold do you recommend for each uphill rep? For example, I have long hill near me that takes about 4-5 minutes to run uphill at threshold pace. Is this long enough if you string together several reps?

I juts purchased these for the summer months in uk and some Merrell Long sky 2 matryx of the autumn as they have the 5mm lugs, not tried either yet though.

Is it true to size?

Loved the film, great to get a first person view of such a crazy race. You mentioned in the comments below you were wearing Salomon S/Lab Pulsar 2 SG's with a Vibram outsole. Did you get the Vibram Peak District outsole? I ask because the Key Cobbler website has a photo of some Pulsar's with the Vibram Peak District Outsole and also because I've just sent my S/Lab Genesis shoes to them for the same outsole - would love to know what you think of it as feels like a bit of a gamble...Interested in the other Vibram outsoles but not sure they'd be much of a difference vs the standard S/Lab Genesis outsoles. Thanks again for the video 🙏

This is a tough one, but for a 50k in a dry rocky climate (desert rats in Colorado) would you choose the Vectiv Sky or the Vectiv Pro 2?

You talked about everything except whether it was waterproof or not. This is a rain jacket, not an AC. If it isn't waterproof, who cares if it is breathable or not! But then again, why ask a reviewer. Actual people who have actually bought and tested this jacket in real life say that it leaks like it's nobody's business. Might as well go ahead and wear a mesh jacket. That also is very breathable. You should be ashamed of yourself conning people into buying a rain jacket that isn't waterproof.

Good job! Keep trail running fr$$ …

Kenyan Hills are on my Marathon training plan. Never done them before. Are you trying to sprint these efforts or is it more of a maximum effort at race pace?

Fantastic footage! Great work :)

Great review thanks - I initially purchased a full size down from my 10 to a 9 which were only just too small so I've returned for a 9.5, they arrive tomorrow! My main reason for purchasing was that I kept rolling my ankles in high stack trail shoes and wanted to try something different. Purchased mine through Runners Need and their customer service has been spot on with the return.

The shoes actually designed for rocks not mud, made for sky running.

Thanks I’m gonna try that with sense pro 4, the fit is kind of off for me. They’re narrow but long I put a little heel bumpers in that, and that healed the length but the most I can take them for is like a 50 K because they’re so narrow upfront, which my old pros weren’t like that but but I’m gonna try that I’m gonna you know the insoles are paper thin anyways, so I’m gonna just pull those out and maybe this weekend’s gonna try my long run like that and see if that’s any better That’s what I heard from a friend that the normal shoe is just wider by a millimeter or so in the toolbox then the F lap and that’s like perfect that’s all I’ve been ever asking Solomon to do I love the loader the ground field. I love it all. I just want a little bit wider in the toolbox. I like this, the narrow midfoot I love it all , just give me a little bit more in the box and I don’t want the high stack. I tried the pulsar and the pulsar pro and I didn’t like the high stack height for me.

Nice video mate glad to see you overtake me 😂😂, great run 👍👍

Turned out nice again! Cracking run!

Sorry for being a bit thick, but is that 3 mins running up a hill, or is it up hill and running down for 3 minutes😊

Hi So what is your fav trail shoe?

So glad you did a video on these! How was the comfort on long runs? Would you say you could do a 100 miler in these? Found them for $100 dollars on sale but already have a pair of Kjerags so debating.

I tried to reach out to them on Facebook. They don’t reply. I was nice for three months while they told me I was going to get my refund. Then they said it was their option to give me a refund and that was it.

Nnormal shoes are junk. The soles of both types came loose within 50 miles. The company said they were under warranty and to send them back for a full refund. They just kept the shoes without the refund. First they said there was a delay in it, then they said they said that it was not guaranteed that they would issue a refund. They just kept my shoes and quit replying to my emails.

Looked really cool!

Great video thanks

Banging! Love it. Great vid

Loved it, can't stop rewatching that first descent. Still picking dried mud out of my kit now!

Were you in the addidas speed pro sg?

Man! This looks like a blast!

I read another reviewers post who had the same issue and cut the wings off with an exacto knife and solved the issue. Not ideal for the $ paid for this shoe but if you already have a pair it might be an option

That's a multi terrane fell race and snow as well, would like to do this one sometime

What do you shoot this on? Handheld or mounted? Great vid :) x

what is it like compared to hoka speedgoat 5,will this be better option then hoka.what is like grip,compared to megagrip ?

Good to see you posting again. Hope you're well

Glad you are back

These are my daily shoes I love them I wear em everyday like a pair of nikes I also hike and go running in them too super lightweight

Does it have a slim fit or does it feel more relaxed? I’m 5’11 and around 160 pounds, so I was thinking of getting a large for layering. I don’t like slim fitting clothes.

Just bought these and LOVE them, except for that dang wing rubbing the inside of my foot. I have read about people cutting them off…anyone have any instructions on that?

Great jacket, you were convincing, than I went for it!

Thank you for the review

Looks a really nice race that, is it north york moors? Sorry about the ankle, hope its a quick recovery

Do the ankle collar wear in over time? I just ordered an exchange for my pair since the padding seemed a little wonky and rubbed my foot painfully. Hopefully the new pair will fit better. Other than that very confidence inspiring shoe for difficult terrain! I didn't find the toebox that roomy. Sure it has room for bunions but the tip is pointy.

Liked, subscribed, great videos! I discovered your channel because I was looking for reviews on this exact jacket - you covered everything I wanted to know, excellent job. I'm now enjoying your other content.

To box has some room for those long distances where your foot swells. Perfekt ultra shoe

I thought the carbon wings would be a problem but wearing thicker ininji socks seemed to keep any issues at bay. I sized down half a size. Ran out of box 11 miles on semi- tech terrian. Following weekend ran almost 19 /5500 elevation gain in the Boulder hills and they worked great. I’d say the downside for me was the power hiking and scrambling up steep rocky steps. Midsole is too soft and felt like I was working harder than I should have.
