While the comfort and support of maximally cushioned shoes are great, all of that padding can have some serious consequences for stability and agility &mdash; two key aspects for mountain runners in particular. HOKA must have been listening to complaints, and their answer is the HOKA Torrent 2 &mdash; a stripped-down version of their traditional ultra-running platform that is one of those magical trail shoes. Designers cut the stack height to a more reasonable 23mm in the heel but maintained all of the comfort and support HOKA is known and loved for. The result is a highly responsive, surprisingly agile, yet supremely cushioned trail runner that weighs as much as a minimalist, zero-drop shoe.
There are only a few downsides to this shoe, and they all generally relate to those issues inherent with other maximally cushioned shoes. While the decrease in stack height improves stability, the dense foam in the midsole cuts out a substantial amount of ground sensitivity &mdash; a positive for long-distance runners but more of an issue for technical alpine trails. The relatively wide last and shorter heel pocket also makes for a less-than-stable experience when sidehilling or running in off-camber terrain, which again affects the performance of this shoe only in certain circumstances. Our biggest fear is that the durability of the outsole rubber, in particular, may not hold up to as many regular long-distance outings as other ultra-running options on the market. But considering the price point of this top-performing shoe, it may be more than worth lacing up in the Torrent 2 at the starting line of your next ultra-marathon.

Settled with the Hoka Torrent 2, cushion still feels great but more stable (lower stack) than the ATRs and relatively lightweight. They're not the most rugged but work well for hard packed trails with some trees and rocks that are around here. I would have liked to try to Nike trail shoes or the New Balance Hierro but nowhere he has them.

Hi all I’m looking for a pair of trail shoes for hard/dry trails. I live around lots of fields and farmland and as the weather is drying up, the mud has too and I’m feeling pains in my legs which I think may be to do with running in soft, road shoes on harder, jagged trails. 

Does anyone have any recommendations for trail shoes? I’d like them to be comfy but also supportive and I’m not interested about going fast. 

TIA

Trail shoes

 It is still pretty lightweight. 9.1 ounces isn't the lightest shoe, but for a trail shoe that does make it pretty light. Uh, and I do feel like there is like a nimbleness to it that I really enjoy

 I know I've been hearing from a lot of you guys who have been enjoying this shoe as well and I think that you guys are enjoying it, but there might be some of you who either have questions or completely disagree and I'd love to hear from you guys too down in the comments, but down below, let's keep the conversation going down there. That's all I have for today everybody. Thanks so much for making it all the way to the end of the video. Hopefully you guys are staying safe out there on your runs and I'll see you in the next one

 I really like how soft it is and the rubber outsole is. You know it's a rubber outsole so it's definitely going to hold up really well. I'm not seeing any like uneven wear or anything like that in the shoe. Uh, so really impressed with the way that these lugs are able to hold up over time

 I feel like I can get up through them really easily. In terms of how it's holding up, I feel like the pro fly midsole is still feels pretty cushy. I really like how soft it is and the rubber outsole is. You know it's a rubber outsole so it's definitely going to hold up really well

Hoka Torrent 2 - After 100 Miles

 Seems though that Sense Ride 4 and the Ultra Glide might be a bit more cushioned. VJ Ultra is also getting good reviews, but they are quite expensive.

Hey All,

I was hoping one you shoe geeks could recommend be a good trail runner for some long miles, more specifically a 100 miler I'm training for.

I'm looking for something with a fair amount of cushion that will help my feet, legs and back feel a little less achy

For my last long race, 50 miler, I trained and raced in entirely 1 shoe: NB GOBI V3. - that I have loved but found to not have enough cushion.

I have recently bought Sacony Peregrine 10 ST and found them to heavy and not quite as cushioned as I would have hopped.

I've been looking at Altra Lone Peak's or Timps but don't want to swap to a zero drop mid tranning. Hoka One One has soon good cushioned shoes as well but I'm not trying to spend more than  $120 on a shoe.

I'm super picky about shoes but any suggestion would be appreciated!

The Long run shoe

Torrent 2, (only used these on trails and they’re fine. Low profile for Hokas though the speedgoats offer more cushion). The only shoes I’ve had from Hoka that didn’t fit were the Rocket Carbon - far too narrow all the way through despite being a size 9. They also do a wide fit in a few models if you’re really broad footed but I would say they are fine in regular

I’m about the buy my first pair of Hoka’s (the speedgoat 4’s) and wondered if people thought they were true to size or not? So far all my normal running shoes which include adidas, Nike, saucony and Reebok have all been a UK 10 with pretty much no size issues (adidas perhaps a touch small but eventually loosened out a bit).

Some of the shoe websites are recommending half a size up

Hoka sizing

 They take time getting used to, but overall the grip is 100% better. I really like their proprietary rubber outsole.

I used my NB Fresh Foam More Trail for too much walking and they feel dead so time for s change...

70kg / M / road to muddy UK trails / 5km to 20km

Loved the NB FF Trail. I also have a light fast big lugged trail shoe so more comfort / less.lugged

I have a 50% off voucher and these are my choices:

- Hoka Torrent
- Hoka Zinal
- Hoka SG 4
- Nike Terra Kiger
- ASICS trabuco max

Any input?

Switchback Travel

In 2022, mountain athletes don’t think twice about taking on big, technical challenges with nothing more than a pair of running shoes and a day’s worth of supplies. Among the growing assortment of fast-and-light footwear options, many of our go-to shoes come from climbing-specialist La Sportiva. Their versatile Bushido II is a perennial favorite and excels on all manner of terrain, from soggy trails and snow to fifth-class rock and loose talus. Grippy FriXion rubber (a compound used on some of Sportiva’s climbing shoes) gives you solid traction while scrambling, and the burly tread grips remarkably well on soft terrain without being too overbuilt for firm ground. Tack on a durable upper, protective toe cap, and rock guard underfoot, and the Bushido is a solid and confidence-inspiring workhorse of a shoe.

Compared to the Speedcross above, the La Sportiva here has much more versatile intentions for a variety of on- and off-trail terrain. Further, mountain runners will love the shoe’s low stack height (19mm in the heel compared to the Speedcross’ 30mm), which lends stability and a solid ground feel. But all this performance does end up feeling a bit overkill on smooth paths, and the Bushido’s lightly cushioned midsole is noticeably less comfortable than all-around models like the Speedgoat or Sense Ride 4 above (especially on high-mileage days). But for technical missions that don’t involve too much dry trail—think high routes in the Cascades, the Sierra, and Colorado—the Bushido is hard to beat. Mountain runners with particular needs might also want to look a bit deeper into La Sportiva’s lineup, which includes the new Cyklon (with attached gaiter) and the freshly revamped Ultra Raptor II and Akasha II... Read in-depth reviewSee the Men's La Sportiva Bushido II  See the Women's La Sportiva Bushido II

 It has a velcro gusseted tongue. It has an ortholite ergonomic insert. The weight of the shoe is 10.5 ounces or 298 grams

 I do think these Bushidos are very durable shoe. I mean just looking at it I can tell how it's made and how the protection is on the shoe. It's make it a very durable shoe. I just use this shoe in very aggressive terrain which eats up the shoes like in no time so it still looks good

 Actually the mod doesn't stick to it as to other ones with a deeper log so that's one advantage. The traction performs pretty good in loose gravel situation and we have couple of trails here with all these little loose gravel small pebbles you can just slip down. But actually I felt really good and stable and comfortable in this terrain too. so I didn't have any problem with the traction yet

 So if you look at this last Portivas you look at the shoe which looks like bomb proof and actually it's kind of bomb proof. So the protection is really really good on this shoe. So starting with this Tpu front area, this protects you from rocks from sticks the same Tpu material. They have it aligned on the side which one can help you when you go between maybe drier bushes, the sticks hitting you from the side so that's gonna protect you against that

La Sportiva Bushido 2 Review | Best Technical Mountain Running Shoe?

La Sportiva Bushido II is amazing. Insanely grippy, I keep good traction on rocks and roots even in wet weather. Can’t recommend them enough.

I have Inov-8 Mudclaws for mud, Ultra G 300 Max for trails but I have ran a few mountains recently that suit neither shoe. I need something with less flex and cushioning than the Ultra G, but less extreme than the Mudclaws. It also needs to have quite a stiff sole (perhaps a rock plate) so that when I run a cross boulder fields the sole doesn't bend round the rock.
Any suggestions?

 I tried Lowa this round. So I will see how many years they last. The Swiss swear by La Sportiva for its resoling.

Discovered that I had $240 in REI dividends today, so my Salomon 4D 3 GTX and Darn Tough merino wool socks came out to just $9!!! Happy deal hunting everyone!

Also, La Sportiva Bushidos II. Fit my feet like a glove, but with enough give for long hikes. Amazing for alpine

Hello friends

I have finally worn completely through my Altra superior 4.5's, and was looking for new shoe advice. I really liked the low (but not non-existent) amount of cushioning. Does anybody have a recommendation for a shoe with a similar amount of cushioning, possibly with a slightly narrower toe box and more grip? 

Most trail shoes I see online are either full cushion or totally minimal. I apologize if this is a repost, but I couldn't find any recent posts with Reddit's booty search feature.

I run 80/20 trails/streets, in a hilly coastal area with a mild climate.

Thanks!

Looking for shoe advice

I already own the Bushido II which hugs my narrow foot perfectly, but just falls short on cushioning on long days and I end up with hot spots and blisters on the balls of my feet. I'm looking for another shoe with a similar low-volume fit and more underfoot protection. I'm not looking for spongy/cloud-like cushioning, or a bulky shoe that would be cumbersome on technical terrain - just overall comfort from sharp rocks and steep downhills that beat up your feet.
