Love my goretex Brooks for winter running. They are my dedicated screw
shoes and keep my feet toasty warm and dry.

I'm loving the Terrafly 303 right now. Very breathable, evacuate water real well, lightweight, OK grip, good on roads and non-rocky terrain. Not great in mud, slippery rocks.

roclite 275 (gore tex trail, women's shoe) terrafly 303 - road/trail shoe -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Trail Monster Running".
I'm also lovin' the Terrafly 303's right now, but they aren't a real trail shoe, more of a road-trail hybrid. They pretty much took the Road-X 233 (obviously a road shoe) and put a textured outsole on it. I wouldn't wear them at Bradbury.
The Roclite 275's are going to feel a lot like the 315's, only wetter. They do have a "sticky rubber" outsole so they will grip better on wet rock than the 315s which have "endurance rubber".

I'm enjoying the Road-X 233 on road and trail. They have no lugs on the
bottom but I feel the only thing lugs are good for is grippng in mud.
Otherwise they just hold dirt and make the shoe heavier.

I agree with Mr. Demer, lugs only help in real soupy crap and only on
climbs. My favorite inov-8 shoe for all around road AND trail running is
the f-lite 195. Light, reasonably sticky on rocks and drains well.

I love running in the 195s but it only took 420 miles before I had to retire them due to tears in toe box. And I never ran with them in the mud. My NB 790s went 684 miles before retirement and they were my dedicated mud shoe. NB 100s only lasted 391 miles and incurred a spectacular equipment failure at mile 3 of the Breaker. My asics piranhas are <5 oz road flats and they are still in play at 453 miles.

That certainly is an issue with the inov-8 performance last. I have had
various models go as high as 800 miles before the toe box ripped out to as
low as 300 miles. It all depends on how many rocks you nick and mud you run
through.
