inov-8 TRAILFLY ULTRA G 300 MAX Review | Best inov-8 Trail Shoes | Run4Adventure

[@averageultrarunner7314]

I’m loving this shoe. After your initial review I bought it and did a marathon off the bat. Plenty on length in it given I went true to size, hoping it’ll be perfect for the later days in the 8 day cape wrath! Great vid Loyd!

[@averageultrarunner7314]

Also, the price is certainly high. I’m hoping that the durability makes the “pounds per mile” worth it. Discounted prices are around too - I got mine from wiggle for around 150.

Sorry for the late answer but I've only just seen your comment!? 🤔 That's great that you're enjoying the Trailfly ultra G 300 max and I'm glad the review helped. Obviously as I answer this you'll be running the Cape Wrath so I hope it's going well! Thanks for watching and supporting the channel 🙏

I did the Endurancelife half marathon couple of weeks ago on the South East Coast and I thoroughly enjoyed running in these across rugged chalk cliff coastline. I've done about 30 miles in these and so far, so good. I went true to size and I would say I am enjoying these.

[@Run4Adventure]

[@timbotee]

Have really enjoyed running in these so far, they seem to get better the further you run, looking forward to running some ultras in them later in the year. Also can't beat the grip on steep downhills. I managed to snap up at pair of these for £120 with a bit of hunting around, much more reasonable.

[@Run4Adventure]

That's good to hear Tim and at £120 that's a great price! 😲 Totally agree with it feeling better the further you run and the outsole grip is brilliant. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment it's appreciated mate 🙏

is weight bothersome when running long distance?

[@hyuste]

Thanks for the review Roy. I run 23 km last weekend and I am quite happy in terms of comfort, grip, reactivity, and stability. However, I see that the heel support and the upper tongue are not very successful. Although I had no problems on the route, I do not know what can happen on an ultra.

[@Run4Adventure]

I was worried about the heel cup and tounge as well Hector because I have had issues in other Inov-8 shoes but the Trailfly ultra seems pretty good. No issues yet anyway so I think it'll be ok even for long stuff 👍 Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment it's appreciated 🙏

[@peterkisidaj9329]

Hi Loyd, thank for your great review as usual :) Those Trailfly shoes look very interesting, probably one of the best versatile trail shoes now, but I'm a bit skeptical to graphene as material from health and eco perspective. I've heard that "graphene" at some specific conditions behaves as asbestos. There are studies or analysis coming out recently about respirators including graphene that might be pretty dangerous because there is something that can be inhaled, get to the lungs and making problems over a long time like asbestos. and looks this is in line with that what Thomas mentioned below that the midsole is quite pungent. But yes, fortunately, that graphene is in the midsole, not so close to nose :) All the best!

[@Run4Adventure]

No worries Peter, glad you enjoyed the review 👍 I have heard a few things about issues with Graphene but I'm not sure the amount being used in a running shoe can cause problems? I'd like to think Inov-8 would have made sure it's safe before they used it in their shoes 🤔 Thanks for watching and supporting the channel its really appreciated 🙏

[@sid8880]

Going to give these another go, in my original size. Think the 9.5UK was just too big and my feet were in wrong place. Felt comfortable but the blisters don’t lie. Will not leave house with the new ones until I’m 100%. They are most certainly different size / shape to the 9.5 g270’s as ran 26 miles yesterday, no issues at all. About 300 miles in them now without any problems. Someone on eBay is going to get a very low mileage pair of UK 9.5’s in a week or so :) Looking forward to the updates Loyd, happy running and cheers for the review

[@Run4Adventure]

I think there's a big difference in the sizing between the Terraultra and the Trailfly ultras. I had to get the Terraultra G270 in a uk10 and I'm a uk9.5 in the Trailfly ultra and it fits great 👍 Hope you get the sizing sorted because it's a good shoe.

[@morganflockhart5825]

Good review as always Loyd ! My concern would be weight that’s way too heavy for a shoe & that’s a UK 9.5 ! Unfortunately some trail shoes are getting heavier Xodus Peregrine Speedgoat ? I think you can still make a good trail shoe under 300gs Evo Speedgoat or La Sportiva S/Lab Pulsar etc!

[@Run4Adventure]

Thanks Morgan, glad you enjoyed the review 👍 I'd always like to see shoes lighter but there's obviously a lot of shoe under your foot and it doesn't feel heavy when you're running in it. I think it really depends what the shoe is designed for, obviously the Pulsar is a super lightweight trail shoe and I definitely wouldn't want to use it for long ultras. Saying that I wouldn't want to use the Trailfly ultra for a quick 10k! 😊 Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment it's really appreciated 🙏

Great review Loyd. Seems to me the worst thing about this shoe (other than price) is the length of the name! I got a pair, and I've found the smell of the graphene midsole to be quite pungent, certainly makes them unique!

[@ianl4518]

Good review Loyd. Interesting proposition but pricey. At the moment, I alternate between SpeedGoat 4s and Peregine 10s. I find the SGs can be a little clumpy when I'm tired and I've tumbled a couple of times in them. Yesterday I took the Peregrine 10s for 8 x repeats of Butser Hill and found after 3hr10, my feet were a little sore but ok. M dilemma is that I have SDW100 in 7wks and that has over 15miles of road. I wonder if these would be a happy middle ground?

[@Run4Adventure]

The shoe would be great for that race Ian but I would say if you find the SG a bit clunky once you're tired it would probably be the same in the Inov-8 shoe 🤔 Hope this helps and thanks for watching and supporting the channel its appreciated mate 🙏

[@ianl4518]

Thanks Loyd, I will give it some thought. BTW, are you running any of the RAT races this year? I'm in for The Plague.

[@danbeasley8465]

I am going from the g270 to this hoping for one of the upper issues from 270 as that bruised top of toes

[@JS-JackSparra21]

This is the future speaking. After 360 miles in these, zero wear on the uppers. Midsole showing some small cracks in the soft (green) segment. Lugs are worn down to a couple of mm. Grip was fine on grass, dry packed trail but was defeated by wet rock and moist or greasy tarmac. Limited traction in heavier muddy conditions as well, so not as great an “all-rounder” as touted. Comfort on rocky or gravelly terrain was good, reducing foot fatigue on those terrains. As of June 24, these are now on sale at around £84, so a bargain if you still fancy a pair.

[@jackjude]

Great insight 👍 Have you got any better recommendations for an 'all rounder?' Decent on greasy tarmac being a key plus point?

[@stephenabbott8250]

So big question, longer trail runs (I’m doing the 44 mile classic quarter in 4 weeks time), I’m peregrine 10’s currently, but the amount of energy return isn’t great, is this worth a look? Great video as always cheers Loyd 👍🏼

[@Run4Adventure]

That's awesome you're running the Classic Quarter it's a great race. I'd personally say it's pretty close to the race fir such a big shoe change! The Peregrine 10 is a great shoe but it's very different to the Inov-8 shoe. Obviously the Inov-8 shoe would be a good shoe for the race but you shouldn't have a problem in the Peregrine 😊 Hope this helps and best of luck with the race 🙏

[@greyrunnings9725]

Thanks again Loyd for a quality and honest review. Yes the price is in my opinion excessive, but one could argue that comfort, reliability and performance albeit a regrettable price to pay for the shoe in making the running experience complete. Personal preference and all that and nice to see owners making positive comments. I’ve be sourced a pair for £144.50 👍

[@Run4Adventure]

Sorry for the late reply but I've only just seen this comment! 😔 I would like it a bit lighter, say 320g but it doesn't feel heavy to run in. Other shoes are the Craft CTM Ultra Carbon, The North Face VECTIV infinite and definitely now the Salomon Ultra Glide 👍 Thanks for watching 🙏

Hi Mitch It's quite hard to answer that because I've never run the Pikes Peak Marathon? I'd love to though, looks like an incredible race! It's on my bucket list, so I'll definitely run it one day 🏃‍♂️😊 I'd say if you think the Terraultra G270 would work for the Marathon then I'm sure the Trailfly ultra would probably be ok for the race 🤔 I've just worn the Trailfly ultra for a coastal ultra Marathon here in the uk and it handle the route really well.

Just thinking about Trailfly Ultra G 300 or Roclite Ultra G 320. I need it for very mixed terrain. What's your idea?

[@Run4Adventure]

I wasn’t a fan of the Roclite Ultra G 320, it was too heavy and really stiff at the midfoot. I preferred the feel of the Trailfly Ultra G 300. Have you checked out any of Inov8’s recent shoes? I really like the new Trailfly, it’s running well at the moment 👍

[@gorrepl1998]

​ @Run4Adventure So far I was running with Roclite g275 v1 - I love this grip in all conditions but not enough cushion for over 30miles distances... Then Trailroc g280, nice cushion but slippery as hell even if it is only little wet - it is really bad combination with my week ankles. Maybe new Trailfly will be good idea.

[@gorrepl1998]

OK, opinions about Tryfly and his behave in wet conditions are not convincing. Maybe Pelegrin 14?

[@NoxiousNoodles]

Part of me is disappointed that they chose to go this direction. Their outsoles have been great for years, especially the x-talons and mudclaws, but their weak spot has never been the outsole or midsole, but rather the uppers. As a result, the choice to develop the midsole confuses me somewhat. If they were going to stick graphene in something, I'd rather they had focussed on developing an upper worthy of their bomber soles, that can survive the fells for a decent period.

[@Run4Adventure]

I totally understand what your saying. It's great making midsole and outsole that last for lots of miles but most of the time in my shoes it's the upper that breaks down first! The upper dies look very good at the moment but I suppose time will tell 🤔 Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment it's really appreciated 🙏

I have 1 more question what would you rate the energy return compared to other trail trainers

[@Northernerdownsouth]

Great video as always mate. £170 for a shoe from a manufacturer that has the poorest durability record…I’m not sure I could justify the jump from my Altra Olympus which is bombproof.

[@Run4Adventure]

I totally agree, £170 is a lot of money for a running shoe. Especially when there has been issues with upper durability in the past. The upper on the Trailfly ultra does look a lot better and it's showing no signs of wear so far 🤞 Time will tell I guess but hopefully for that sort of money it should be pretty durable.

Hi Lloyd, quick question if ok. How would you compare the ride of these against The North Face Invectiv Infinite? I have the trail fly and like them but did a 60k the other week and towards the end they felt heavy. Trying to find a lighter cushioned shoe. Hokas don’t work for me so wondered if the Infinite could be the answer? Thank you

[@Run4Adventure]

The Trailfly ultra is a bit hefty but I think it runs lighter than it is 👍 It's tricky if you feel Hokas don't work? The Vectiv Infinite is a really nice shoe but it's not going to give you the depth of cushioning the Trailfly ultras gave you. I'm just about to get the Topo Athletic MTN Racer 2.

These shoes have arrived now but the toe box feels very stiff, making the shoe feel shorter in length even though I am sure there is a thumb width between my toe and the front of the shoe. Does the toe box become more supple after a few runs and does the shoe then feel normal in length? I am not sure if I should return them or just wear them until the toe box feels more comfortable.

The sole on the G300 shoe is excellent, over 300 miles ran and lugs at heel are now worn down, as a comparison was running in Hoka Tecton X and heel was worn down after 100 miles.
